I read stories about transmigrating into an old lady because I want to see someone finally break free of the misery of being oppressed in the name of filial piety.

Could we please stop having people transmigrate into old ladies with sons and grandchildren, only to use all kinds of miraculous pills after transmigrating and then fall in love?

I really like the flavor of this stir-fried chicken. The heroine is directly the Empress Dowager. She is in a high position and can eat melons. It is a really novel theme. I hope you will work hard. It is really super super super good-looking!
I also have the idea of writing the story in my heart, but I have been hesitant. I feel that I can't write it, and I am afraid that it will not be good. So I think you are very powerful and can do what you want to do firmly. 👍👍🌹 Moreover, this book is really good (๑╹ヮ╹๑)ノ Really, you have to believe us book friends~ This is also the first time I have read this kind of ancient time travel article written by an outsider. Moreover, if I were to compile some of the jewelry, clothing, meals, etc., I might not have the patience to find the information~ I like this sentence ↓ (hehe ꉂ(ˊᗜˋ*)) and the simple biographies of the characters behind it (I copied and pasted them all) "Finally, although I didn't write it, I actually constructed a complete background and important life experience for each character. In my heart, in a distant dimension, they really existed." Give me five stars and keep up the good work↖(^ω^)↗ See you again in the future~✧(◍˃̶ᗜ˂̶◍)✩
It's good-looking, fast-paced and not too long. The only thing I hate is that Wei Ruoxue's lover was torn apart because the dog emperor entered the palace.
I clicked into this book purely because I wanted to find a light-hearted story to make myself feel lighter. What I didn't expect to see was a group of deep palace portraits: The mean and cold-blooded emperor, the queen mother with different thoughts, some of the queens and concubines are ruthless, some are beautiful and unlucky, and some can't help themselves. Although it is not as relaxed and pleasant as imagined, the palace fight is cruel and understandable. The same is true for the fate of women in the deep palace. Most people have no chance and can only drift with the crowd. Not many people even regard them as human beings. But they are still like flowers, trying hard to bloom their own colors. As for whether the ending is satisfactory or not, it is a matter of opinion.
Such a good novel only has a score of 6.9, I'm shocked! I would like a novel with the heroine's perspective from the sidelines of the palace, even the concubine and the queen mother can do it. I have read a novel before where the heroine is disguised as a young Qianlong, and she can live a life of prosperity and wealth for decades as long as she survives for ten or twenty years. This time I finally found a similar book, and I am looking for another similar novel!
A year after it was finished, there were suddenly a lot more comments. After reading it for a while, I felt like I should say something [laughing and crying]. Please take a look before reading. 1. The "emperor" in this article is very, very, very different. This setting is because I am more of a middle-aged person [covering my face]. I have no favorable impressions of the profession of emperor. I don't believe that a feudal ruler can be a good person, and I don't think they have the consciousness to treat other people as human beings. Many concubines died quietly because of this original intention, but due to writing problems, they failed to express the subtext of "cannibalism in feudal society" [face covering]. Many readers may not be able to accept this, so read with caution. 2. Ending question The data in this article is actually quite poor, like one or two yuan a day [laughing and crying]. In addition, I was quite busy at the time, so I stopped writing after writing 15W [face covering]. After that, I stopped updating twice, but a few readers kept asking me when I would continue updating, so I wrote 8W to finish it. For this reason, the second half ended very hastily, +1 for reading with caution. After all, the purpose of reading novels is to have fun, and it's quite annoying to find that you can't accept it when you reach the end. That's it, I wish you all a happy life [sending heartfelt wishes]
The heroine is very sober and the book is very interesting, but the emperor in it may be different from what you imagined when you first read it. For example, when I read the first few chapters, I felt that he was a smart and wise emperor. Although he was young, he still had his own city and his own ideas. He was an emperor with a promising future. But later I saw that he was actually reborn. Maybe it was because of his rebirth that he became a little indifferent and condescending towards the women in his harem, and he was somewhat dependent on rebirth. After all, he must have changed a lot after he was reborn, but he still treated the people in his harem according to his thoughts before rebirth. Although he was reborn, the things that happened after that had not happened yet, and there was a little butterfly called the emperor reborn. He treated everything a little bit arbitrary and took it for granted.
It looks great, please update it! ! I've read a lot of romance novels, and I really like this kind of novel about the Queen Mother with no cp in the heroine. It's very interesting to watch, so cheers (ง •̀_•́)ง
This book has a good intention, but I don't like the idea of the little emperor repaying kindness with enmity. As a result, Qian Chen and Ruoxue were separated in this life.
It was quite beautiful. I watched it non-stop and felt that it was gone at such a young age. It was such a pity. The welfare of the protagonist, the time-traveler, is of average age, which was a bit surprising, and then I saw the ending of Zhang and her eldest prince, which was quite sad.
