Looking for Recommendations (Happy or Tragic Endings Are Both Fine) 🙌
If it’s a happy ending, it has to be sweet (I want novels based on TV dramas). If it’s a tragic ending, it has to hurt (I want it to be painful right from the start). Note: no women loving women, no men loving men 🙏

At the age of 15, I was married to the King of Zhu, by my parents' decree and the matchmaker's words. I was married to the King of Zhu, but I did not know him. When we first met, I found him to be gentle and considerate, and I thought I could entrust my life to him. Later, his hideous face was gradually revealed. For the throne and for power, he did not hesitate to kill his own concubine.
Though short, the story is profoundly meaningful. Since ancient times, regardless of social status, talent, or beauty, women have always been subordinate to men, enduring hardship like the heroine and her mother in the book. In some dynasties, some people simply treated women merely as tools for procreation and amusement. The heroine in the book is merely a microcosm of this long history.
It's so realistic and beautiful. Yun'er's life was so hard. In her next life, she doesn't want to be a princess again. She wants to be a carefree daughter of an ordinary family, marry a man she loves who loves her, and live a happy and fulfilling life.
To be honest, you'll definitely feel uneasy for a long time after reading this article 😢 As you read it, you embark on a sad journey, a journey filled with joy and sorrow, but both joy and sorrow are tinged with a subtle sadness. Even friendship, love, and family are all written with a touch of melancholy. By the end, all you can feel is the ruthlessness of royalty.
Little Yun'er, I miss home. I want to read the extra chapters 🥺
This book doesn't dwell on the female protagonist's character in great detail; it's more like an observer's gentle narration. Yet, it's chilling to read. In a feudal society where cannibalism reigned supreme and men were superior to women, no woman could remain untouched. Some held high positions, some still retained their good nature, and some gradually forgot their original intentions.
I watched the whole thing in one go. How can I put it? People often say that emperors are heartless, and that's not just an empty saying. The concubines in the story all got their just desserts. Yun'er's death really left me heartbroken, and then there's Jun Zimu—such a healthy child, lost just like that. What do you think happened to that beauty (who caused Jun Zimu's death)?
It's really good. There's not much romance, just Xiao Yun'er's helplessness and heartache in the deep palace. It's true that emperors have always been heartless. Even if they feel a little guilt, they will never bow their heads.
The writing is exceptionally delicate. The female protagonist is caught in a dilemma, yet she is deeply concerned for her child. The scumbag is ruthless, and the empress is somewhat cunning. The writing is incredibly moving, and the different perspectives on family, friendship, and love make the reader feel deeply sorry for her.
I watched it with tears in my eyes. Yun'er's later life was so hard. Luckily, Zilan was always there for her. This emperor was truly selfish and heartless! His childhood sweetheart Rongcheng and his father only cared about power. In that era, couldn't girls really make their own choices? 🥺🥺🥺
