Knowing Your Heart from Afar

Pure Historical Romance! No Transmigration, No Rebirth

Farming or palace intrigue, preferably with both leads having no prior romantic or sexual relationships!!!

Any Low-Key Novels Focused on Everyday Life?

No System, and not too much face-slapping.

Looking for an Elegant Historical Chinese Romance Without Outlandish, Over-the-Top, or Brain-Dead Tropes

I want something with elegant, delicate writing. Not the kind that opens with someone getting disfigured or having their heart cut out. That's too melodramatic and clumsy. And no side characters like concubine-born daughters or female antagonists publicly attacking the heroine at banquets. People like that wouldn't survive three hours in ancient times unless they were faking their deaths. It's so unrealistic.

Slow-Paced Stories About Farming, Stability, and a Peaceful Life

The heroine lives in the mountains, supports herself, grows crops and vegetables, and goes up the mountain to hunt for wild game. She has no family, and ideally the male lead is on his own too. No awful relatives or female rivals. I especially love stories about a happy, peaceful life. Maybe it's because life is already so exhausting.

Seeking High-Quality Historical Romance, No Transmigration, Rebirth, or System

I like food, palace intrigue, the imperial examinations, political schemes, and crime-solving. On Tomato, I’ve read The Strongest Female Grand Secretary Rises Against the Odds; for palace intrigue, Zhaohua Weiyang, Palace Willows, and Deep Palace Strategy: The Tale of Qingzhi; for food, Chang’an Snack Shop (I can’t remember if it was on Tomato).

Pure Historical Romance!!! Sweet Historical Romance, No Rebirth

There are too many rebirth stories, and I’m not really into them. Please recommend pure historical romance.

Seeking Palace and Household Intrigue With Masters of Subtle Schemes and Verbal Artistry

Looking for books like *The Widow Becomes Empress (Fu Lingxiao)*. I want characters who are clever and calculating.

Looking for Palace-Intrigue Stories With a Heroine Like Consort Hua and an Emperor Who Absolutely Dotes on Her

No chaste couples, please. The emperor shouldn't be old, either, and I don't want that mindless doting stuff.
