I've Been Into Palace Intrigue Lately 😍 Hand Over Your Top Palace Intrigue Picks!

Looking for books like *The Empress's Consort Is Cunning, and the Emperor Can't Resist Her*. The leads don't have to be each other's firsts!!! They don't have to be each other's firsts!!! But the female lead must be clear-headed and strong, not weak. Some angst is fine. I like stories set in fictionalized historical worlds, as long as the plot is well-crafted and detailed, hehe.

Looking for Real Palace-Intrigue Dramas, No Need for Mutual First-Timers

Transmigration Palace Intrigue Novels

Looking for books like My Lady Is a PhD in Psychology, and I’ll Slaughter My Way Through the Palace (Jiaojiao Yueming). I’m out of palace-intrigue novels to read, so please recommend some. The heroine transmigrates and wreaks havoc throughout the imperial harem.

Novels similar to *The Job of a Concubine*.

Not Both Virgins, Happy Ending, Palace and Household Intrigue

Since these are palace- and household-intrigue novels, don't recommend those idiotic stories that force both leads to be chaste only for the sake of it. The female lead should be smart, and preferably like the male lead without loving him.
