Looking for Good Classical Chinese Romance Novels Set Among Aristocratic Families, with Household Intrigue and No Idiotic Characters

Any Books Where the Female Lead Is Smart Throughout and Focused on Her Career?
Looking for a female lead who’s smart and focused on building her career, with no romance, no family members holding her back, and no awful people. I can’t get through stories with naive, silly female leads.

Any Pure Court Intrigue or Household Intrigue Novels?

It's great! The female lead is intelligent, generous, sharp-tongued, and adaptable. She doesn't have any extraordinary cultivation talent, but she has a cheat ability to understand animal language. Everyone in the cast is intelligent, and their personalities match their roles. The storyline is novel and unique. So far, everything seems perfect.
I'm speechless at this rating. Even if I were to rate it with my toes, I wouldn't give it a 7.4! The character and plot settings are very novel, and the female lead is intelligent and resourceful. Her "golden finger" is the ability to talk to animals, essentially creating an intelligence network—that's a very appealing concept.
This is absolutely brilliant! The female lead doesn't rely on any cheat codes or lucky charms to bully ordinary people; she uses her intelligence and shrewdness to manage the inner court. She knows when to fight and when to play it safe, dealing with family and powerful figures alike, skillfully employing opportunistic tactics and biding her time.
It's so good! The storyline is so captivating, I can't put it down.
It's so good! It kept me up all night again 😅😅😅
There are plenty of good-looking ones. But it's rare to see one this good-looking.
A different kind of fantasy transmigration stepmother novel 🤔 The female lead is both cool and gentle, and has a special ability—she can understand animal language. Currently, the story revolves around domestic power struggles and raising children. Looking forward to the exciting plot developments! Eagerly awaiting the author's updates! I hope Wei Jie can be beautiful on her own without a partner. (P. S.: Those who prefer a clean relationship should proceed with caution)
It's quite good, but it has a bit of an old-fashioned "all-powerful woman" feel to it. The female lead has been married twice and has six children, making her a widow. Yet, many men still fall in love with her the moment they meet, and it's pure love that makes them want to marry her. This is ancient times, and they don't seem to mind at all. It's so exaggerated.
I think it's fine if there's no romantic pairing; it's good for the female lead to be beautiful on her own. But why do so many novels now feature female leads spending their prime years raising other people's children and becoming stepmothers? Of course, the female lead in this story is quite strong-willed, intelligent, and the author writes very well.
It was alright, but I felt some of the character portrayals were a bit contradictory, which made me a little uncomfortable, but I still finished watching it. Also, regarding the "no romance" tag, it's fine if it starts off with that scene, but the part on the boat in the middle is really, really, really stupid and quite speechless.
