Is Women’s Fiction in Decline? Looking for Fresh, Original Stories. No BL
Back when I was editing, there was no such thing as romances between two men or two women. Well, maybe there were, but they hadn't taken off yet.
Palace and Household Intrigue with Smart Characters! Rated 9.5 or Higher!
Looking for something like Zhaohua's Chaos. Rated 9.5 or higher! The female lead should be a concubine's daughter who gradually rises from a low rank, or works her way up in the prince's household. She should be clear-headed, have no love for the emperor or prince, be ambitious, ruthless, and quick to avenge herself. And she has to be smart, smart, smart! She pretends to be a pushover and then...
A True Heiress From an Aristocratic Family: Proper, Polished, Scheming, and Not a Doormat
Books Where the Heroine Transmigrates into an Old Lady with Five Couples
I’m looking for books like "Transmigrated as the Empress Dowager, All I Want Is to Take It Easy", with a clever protagonist like Liu Yun who can dish out a sharp comeback.
An Ancient-Era Exile Story Where the Entire Family Is Banished for a Crime
A historical story where the female lead has just been reborn and is on the road to exile with her whole family, who have been convicted of crimes.
Looking for a Novel with a Strong, Clear-Headed Heroine Who Isn't a Doormat or Swooning Over the Hero
Reborn in the Womb as a Legitimate Daughter, Skilled in Music, Chess, Calligraphy, and Painting, With Excellent Manners
Palace-Intrigue Novels!!!
Looking for books similar to "The Wise Don’t Fall in Love; Her Majesty Tears Down the Bridge After Crossing". The leads don’t have to be faithful only to each other, and I don’t mind whether he favors only her later on. But absolutely not at the beginning. The main focus should be palace intrigue, and the romance should develop gradually.
Palace and Household Intrigue, with a Heroine Who Isn't the Main Wife but Is Loved by the ML
Looking for books similar to Qing Dynasty: I Accidentally Became Yongzheng's Beloved (Chunmian Jin'an). I want palace or household intrigue, with a heroine who isn't the principal wife but is very much loved by the male lead, and has a good personality herself.
Looking for Traditional Female-Oriented Household Intrigue Novels, Please!
I'm looking for a traditional female-oriented novel. The male lead shouldn't inherit the throne or rebel to become emperor; he should just be a high-ranking official or a noble. The female lead shouldn't get involved in politics. I want a simple domestic-intrigue story, with rivalries against cousins and the like. No mind-reading and no body-swapping between the leads.

It's thoughtful and not cliché, and I can understand the values of some of the author's sentences. It's very comfortable!
The emperor will not let them become bigger and stronger. If they want to be stable, the emperor must die. I hope that in the end the hero and heroine will regain their lost power, otherwise their lives will be unstable and they will have to live in assassination forever.
Well written, keep it up, I hope you can finish it 👍
I really want to know why the Emperor failed in his bid for the throne, when the Queen Mother still held real power?
Finished reading. The pace is fast and the viewing experience is very comfortable. The plotting part is a bit immature, but overall it's quite logical. The business part is also pretty good. There are relatively few emotional lines, and the secondary CP I like is not there either. But I read chapter after chapter very smoothly, and I personally think it's actually pretty good.
Not bad, but the second half was a bit rushed and ended without any clear explanation.
Not bad, quite interesting
Good-looking, good-looking, good-looking, good-looking
Highly recommended, it's good to watch and I haven't seen enough yet. It would be better if I wrote more, 🤭🤭🤭 The smart and wise female protagonist and male protagonist, the villains are not very vivid, but overall it's very good and gives me motivation to read on. It's very good, the author can't help 😄😄😄
I quite like it, I like the sobriety of the heroine, and some of the things the heroine says make sense in reality. The male protagonist is also very good and will really understand what the female protagonist is saying. Personally, I feel (don't criticize if you don't like it) that there are too few emotional scenes, they come a little too late, and the ending is a little sloppy.
