Any Great Palace-Intrigue Novels? Nothing Where the Heroine Gets Spoiled Right From the Start!
The female lead should be scheming! And in the end, she must not fall in love with the male lead!!! Please make it well-written!
Historical Romance! Concubine-Born Heroine! Rising to the Top! A Capable Heroine Who Plans Ahead!
The male lead is the same, and the female lead is sweet on the outside but dark inside. Please, please, please, please, please!
Palace and Household Intrigue Like The Concubine with Poisonous Schemes (The Princess Wei Young)
Rebirth or transmigration are both fine. I want a domineering heroine who takes revenge, with the male lead quietly supporting her from behind the scenes. At first, he's the heroine's older or younger brother, but it turns out he's actually a prince from another country. The heroine's story should span several different countries.

The relationship between Xu Huali and the female lead was really touching, and then their ending was just one of those tragic love stories 😢😢 However, because I ship their tragic ending, I envision the female lead as someone who marries into the family and becomes a background character—someone with a respectful relationship or someone who develops feelings for her.
This is one of the best novels I've read recently, and I'd even reread it. I absolutely love this story. I never imagined I could see such a profound and memorable theme of family, country, and the world in a single story. I was truly moved by the bond between the Empress and Xingzhi, and I could really feel Shen Yu's personal charm.
There was only one Empress Shen Yu in this world. If a Shen Yu had appeared at the end of the Western Jin Dynasty, would there have been no subsequent chaos of the Five Barbarian Invasions, leaving nine out of ten households devastated in the Central Plains? Furthermore, I think Shi Siru was more suitable for Shen Yu than Jichuan Earl Chu Xi.
The female lead should either not get married, or marry someone who's just a background character; I'd prefer to read purely career-oriented stories.
Why are the stats for such a good book so dismal? It doesn't make sense. The author's writing is fluent and meticulous; it's clear they've done thorough research. This book about women serving as officials is one of the most logically sound novels I've read, with excellent writing on both officialdom and romance. I hope the author continues writing and look forward to new books from them.
I silently finished reading this book. Four words came to mind: deeply moving and unforgettable! This is a wonderful world. I saw Lou Tingyue, the top scholar in the imperial examination, riding high on his horse, enjoying the sights of Chang'an in a single day. I saw Shen Yu's achievements in a prosperous era. I saw that enviable era. That era that belonged to them!
Although the narrative is a bit disorganized, it vividly and interestingly portrays the efforts and hardships of women in politics, making it a worthwhile read.
This is the best book I've read recently. Every character has a complete behavioral logic, and I can feel the flesh and blood of each character. Of course, I admire Shen Yu the most. Shen Yu is truly the ideal empress I've imagined. She's flesh and blood, brave and resourceful, loyal and righteous, possessing strategies that benefit the country's development, yet also unable to maintain a good…
It's hard not to praise the author's thoughts and values. The writing style may seem naive and humorous at first glance, but the author's skill shines through at times. I finished reading it with tears in my eyes, for Empress Yu, for Lou Xingzhi, and for all the vividly portrayed and unique supporting characters. A well-written protagonist isn't enough; a truly excellent book is one where even the supporting characters resonate deeply.
I am grateful to the author for such solace; as a woman, I also have something to look forward to.
