Infinite Evolution, Death Train, Defying the Emperor's Order with Talent, Slay the Gods in the Mental Hospital, those stories about the young masters, Southeast, System... What else is good enough to keep reading without getting annoying?
High-Quality Historical Romance Novels!!!
Something like "The Guide to Capturing a Black Lotus", "Attack Jade", or "How Is This Proper"? The author's writing has to be good, and the plot needs plenty of twists and turns. Key point: lots of reversals.
Qing Dynasty Transmigration Story with Fourth Prince Yinzhen as the Male Lead
The heroine can have a pocket dimension, but no cultivation. Something like a Qing Dynasty transmigration story, for example The Imperial Noble Consort's Path to Promotion.
Palace Intrigue with Fake Pregnancy and Miscarriage
Looking for books like "The Villainess Transmigrates into a Book: Winning the Emperor's Heart and Taking the Phoenix Throne (Kun Yi)". Are there any palace-intrigue stories where the heroine fakes a pregnancy, suffers a miscarriage, and rises to power? Please, I'm begging.
Qing-Dynasty Transmigration Novels: She Doesn’t Have to Be the Primary Consort, Just Don’t Make Her Suffer!
Books about Kangxi, Yongzheng, or Qianlong, and no other emperors. Kangxi is preferable, of course. I haven't seen many Kangxi books on Tomato Novel, so Yongzheng is my second choice, and Qianlong comes last.
A Couple Transmigrate Together
Two people transmigrate together and support each other as they work hard toward their goals.

Looking for books similar to "After Switching Bodies, the Crown Prince Had Triplets and Helped Me Ascend the Throne". I want a story where someone transmigrates into a prince, preferably one of Kangxi's sons. Nothing too brainless, and he should dote only on his legal wife.
Qing Dynasty Transmigration: The Fourth Prince Dotes Only on Her
1. I don't care whether they're each other's first. As long as they're devoted to each other, exclusive love is fine. 2. I only read stories about Fourth Prince Yongzheng.

This book should be published in the male-oriented genre. The female lead is a very self-deceptive, self-manipulative person, a master of romantic manipulation. She's a hopeless romantic. She's devoted her entire life to the male lead and his eldest wife and son. None of her four children respect her. She's a complete scumbag and a walking bloodbath.
The author portrays the Fourth Prince's domineering nature in great detail. It's great! Are there any extra episodes? And some more modern ones?
I finished reading it, including the epilogue. Overall, it was pretty good. You could say it's another Ruoxi (a character from a popular Chinese novel/drama series). The female lead loses herself in constant self-pity and is always trying to please the male lead. The male lead's biggest advantage is the female lead, and she herself isn't very strong-willed.
This is a heartwarming time-travel novel set in the Qing Dynasty. The female protagonist is quite clear-headed and lives a relatively happy life in the ancient royal family. Compared to modern times, aside from not being as free, everything else is much better. There are no awful characters; the two support each other through thick and thin, growing old together—it's quite a good read.
This is truly the most enjoyable Qing Dynasty time-travel novel I've ever read; it's exceptionally well-written. Other novels feature boastful, domineering female protagonists who are doted on by the male lead, who then suppresses the other concubines—it's really… jarring and makes me feel like I'm not reading a novel, but rather the fantasy of a woman on her deathbed.
The beginning was fairly ordinary and not particularly special, which made it quite comfortable to read without too much melodrama and with a fast pace. What surprised me was that the fourth brother wanted to change things after learning about history. I was looking forward to a side story from Honghui's perspective or what society would be like after several generations of reforms.
There were no melodramatic plot twists or blatant revenge attacks; it was rather bland, but isn't it precisely this blandness that resonates with readers? At first, I thought the Fourth Prince was planning a forced abduction, but I was mistaken. How could two strong-willed individuals clash and do something so petty? I really like Ulanara in this novel.
The story structure is decent. Although they both die in the end, I don't think it's love. If it were love, the female lead wouldn't be so indifferent to him sleeping with other women, and the male lead wouldn't sleep with other women either. So their love isn't pure; at most, it's infatuation. I skipped around after the female lead got pregnant with her second child, and then there was the exposure of a secret space, and more jumps within jumps.
Well written! I also really like the Fourth Prince in "The Secret History of the Crown Prince," played by Zhao Hongfei. I liked his portrayal of Dodo back then, but it's a pity he was forced to retire from the entertainment industry by Zhiyin. Maybe there are still things in the entertainment industry that we don't know. Anyway, it's a real shame.
The author describes it as a diary entry, but I truly feel it reflects the ordinary, simple life, and that's wonderful. The author's writing style is very comfortable; there are no intense or exciting parts, only a gentle happiness. It's a very good book, but the rating is a bit low.
