The appeal of time-travel novels featuring modern, independent women who, when faced with scumbag and despicable powerful men from feudal society, refuse to yield and bravely fight back.
Having read novels for so many years, I've always wanted to write a truly moving story. However, my writing skills and scope are limited; no matter how many ideas I have, they only amount to a small fraction when they finally come to paper. In each of my female protagonists, I hope to see a resilient and courageous spirit of resistance.
Although it's a story that purely tortures the female lead, at least the female lead has three children and three fathers, making her a thousand times better than other female leads who remain chaste. It's a real gem!
It seems destined to be tragic unless the male lead is willing to let go; otherwise, both sides are doomed. The second male lead's character seems too perfect at the moment. I hope his child can be born, even if the female lead passes away in the end, the second male lead can live with the child. He's such a good person... That male lead is too obsessed, clinging on relentlessly like a mad dog.
It showed me a woman's independence and resilience; even in the face of hardship, she wasn't assimilated by feudal ethics. The second male lead successfully won! 🤦🤦 Previously, the second male leads were always the unfortunate ones, but this time the scumbag male lead got the short end of the stick. 😏🤭
Perhaps a tragic ending is the best possible outcome.
It's great! I love this kind of plot, haha. The guy is impure, but since the female lead doesn't love him, I don't care how many women he has. And seeing the female lead get married and have children later made me feel better. Now there's a prince who's the male lead's brother too. Although I don't know how the plot will unfold, I'm so excited! It's so satisfying! Oh my god, my values are questionable! I can't believe I feel so comfortable watching two people with impure backgrounds! 😂😂😂
Actually, I think it's quite good, but the updates are a bit slow, it's simply not enough to read. Author, could you please update two chapters a day? 🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺
It's good, even if the ending is a sad one, I still think it's good. Author, I've already thought of the ending for you: The female lead and Liu Xingzhou fake their deaths and live a secluded, idyllic life away from the male lead. War forces the male lead to abdicate, and during his escape, he accidentally stumbles upon the place where the female lead lives. Seeing her happy, he lets go and leaves.
The writing is good, but it always feels unrealistic. How could an emperor with three palaces and six courtyards possibly have his heart set on just one woman? This woman isn't anything special either, so why would four men love her, and even commit suicide for her?
