Any Grand-scale Historical Political Intrigue Novels?
The male and female leads should be smart, not foolish and naive.
Intricate Power Plays and Mind-Bending Schemes
The protagonist gradually seizes power, schemes, and plays political games. The more intricate and difficult to follow, the better. I want something that really makes you think.
High Intelligence, Cunning Plans, Masterful Schemes, Treating the World Like a Chessboard
Looking for a novel with a protagonist like Murong Li from The Legend of Qin: someone who treats the world as a chessboard and all living beings as pieces, plans everything out, and plays life like a game, but is willing to become a piece on the board himself when necessary.
Strong Female Lead and Political Scheming! No One Acts Like an Idiot!
I don’t want a female lead disguised as a man! She should be unbelievably clever or have maxed-out combat skills. She could be a princess, a martial artist, or anything else. She shouldn’t rely on the male lead’s help. Using her own strength as a woman, she turns the situation upside down. The process can be difficult, but in the end she should achieve her ideals.
Alternate History, Political Scheming, and Struggles for Supremacy!
Traditional historical fiction. No System, no transmigration, and no plagiarizing ancient poetry!
I’ll Always Submit to the Clearheaded, Rational Heroines in These Authors’ Stories
I'd like to read something like Damn! Drop the Urge to Help Others and Respect the Scumbag's Fate. Quick transmigration, conquest stories, high quality.
Power Plays, Scheming, and Brainy Strategists
Become my pawn once again. I will win this game, even if the gods themselves stand in my way. I will beat them by half a move.
Power Struggles ♛ Masterminds Behind the Board ♞ Schemes to Rule the World ♝
Looking for novels with a protagonist who’s almost supernaturally clever and skilled at political maneuvering. A System or not is fine, and a female lead or not is fine, but I don’t like protagonists who think with their pants. I’m begging you, great masters!!!
Any Stories With a Scheming, Calculating, Coolheaded Female Lead?
Any stories with a female lead who's skilled at political intrigue, extremely calculating, and calm and collected?
Female-Led Career Story: Political Scheming, Nation-Building, and Fighting for the Realm in a Time of Chaos
I want to read something like "The Villainess Taps Her Wooden Fish, Gaining Merit Every Day". Are there any stories where a clever, resourceful woman becomes emperor in ancient times and builds up the country, or becomes a female warlord in the Republican era, excelling at both diplomacy and warfare while plotting to conquer the world? Ideally, no romance 😃
Any Political Intrigue Novels Where the Heroine Plans a Hundred Moves Ahead, with Precise Wording?
Looking for books like "You and I Are Both Pieces on the Board". Is there anything similar to this female lead? QAQ

Looking for Political Intrigue with a Ruthless, Cunning Heroine Who Focuses on Her Career
Looking for books similar to "Reborn as the Treacherous Minister’s Legitimate Daughter, She Plays Herself". I can’t stand stupid characters or female leads who rely on others or ride someone else’s coattails. I want someone clear-headed and ruthless. I love that.
A Powerful Minister's Daughter: Brilliant, Ruthless, and Cunning
The heroine's father or family should be a powerful minister, feared by the emperor. I don't care whether he's a loyal minister or a treacherous one. I don't want petty household squabbles over wives, concubines, and children. I want a ruthless ambition to seize power for the family. And a powerful minister's daughter should act like one: skilled at plotting for power and wielding it.
Looking for High-Quality Political Intrigue with a Powerful Female Lead
Looking for high-quality stories with strong female leads, focused on power struggles. The male lead can be strong or not, as long as he doesn't hold her back.
Any Novels Like The Female Lord of Troubled Times?
The Female Warlord of a Chaotic Era is seriously so, so good! The female lead is really smart. Please recommend me something similar.
Female-Lead Beast-Taming or Pokemon Stories, No Romance, and No Man Reincarnating as a Woman
Female-oriented beast-taming stories, no romance pairings. No other novels that don't fit these requirements.

So far so good looking. This is my first time reading this ancient Machiavellian novel. I originally thought that this type of novel would be boring for me, but on the contrary, its content is not boring, and there are some funny points. The characters and plot are relatively three-dimensional, which is very attractive to continue reading. There are many places in it that make people want to continue to explore and know the reasons and results of these things happening; undercurrents arise one after another, and with the protagonist's decision-making, people look forward to what the future development will be. The heroine's character is particularly cold and resolute. She can sacrifice her own life for her identity and the people, and may even be her own relatives... But she is not completely cold-blooded. She always treats women with more patience and gentleness, and she is also kind-hearted. Her character is particularly suitable for me, but I always feel sorry for the heroine. So why is this a serial novel? I'm so anxious, I really want to watch it all at once 🥺
Very beautiful, very exciting! Although reading this kind of Machiavellian novel, sometimes I feel a little confused like a wild boar unable to eat chaff. I can't understand the cause and effect of the incident without explaining it in detail 😂, but it doesn't stop me from reading it. It feels wonderful! Is the male protagonist Lu? Or secret guard Yan Yi? Lu said that there are powerful people joining forces, both of them are very thoughtful, and I like their looks! I can't understand Yan Yi a bit. It's clear that two female secret guards were arranged to be maids in the previous article, but Yan Er and Yan Er almost didn't appear. Instead, it was Yan Yi who was the personal bodyguard, and it was also ambiguous. He was picked up while taking a bath in the bath and fell asleep, and he was doing massage exercises on the bed... I can't understand.
The writing is very good, the overall logic is thorough, and no obvious bugs have been found yet. As long as there is no male protagonist, the female protagonist is very attractive. I hope the author will not force emotions, which will really lower the grade of the article. Especially for Lu, just play a supporting role quietly and don't force yourself into it. Even if I have CP, I don't like it. I feel inexplicably disgusted by this person. Fortunately, his roles are few. The heroine has the world in mind, has a comprehensive plan, is decisive in dealing with problems, acts in a measured manner, and is never sloppy. She's my favorite type of heroine.
It's so good-looking. I really like this kind of heroine who is always calm and rational, upright and has the world in mind. It's a very good plot and the writing style is also very good. It's really good-looking. The only flaw is that it's not enough. The heroine is upright and magnanimous. The hero has been working hard for peace in the world behind his back. Later, he met the heroine and found that he was not the only one who was working hard. He didn't dare to express his feelings because of his poor health. This is good. The two people work for a common goal. They have a tacit understanding and are like confidants. They don't necessarily have to fall in love.
Don't be a princess, be a factory boss!
It has clear thinking, wisdom and strategy, and good logic. It can be regarded as a Machiavellian novel. It is all about calculations and martial arts. There is no emotional pull between the male and female protagonists. It is all testing. I highly recommend it [Top post] [Top post] [Top post] [Top post] [Top post] [Top post] [Top post] [Top post] [Top post] [Top post] [Top post] [Top post] [Top post] [Top post]
It's very beautiful. I couldn't stand it anymore after reading it for a long time, but this one feels different. It's very attractive. 💕 💕 💕 💕 💕 💕 💕 💕 Come on, come on.
It's a plot of ancient times, and the characters are well created. The protagonist's mother is really (//∇//). If I could, she would be the one that a girl like me would try my best to take home. She is a soft, delicate and intelligent beauty.
As a Machiavellian novel, it's not bad, but there are a few points that are a bit confusing. One is the purpose of clarifying Xiao Qingyue's role as a time-traveling woman. Isn't it just to write about her dealing with several men, as a control group for the heroine? If this is the case, I feel that the layout of the article is a bit small. I wonder if there will be any other descriptions of her later. Secondly, the epidemic virus targeting the children of the aristocratic family is a bit nonsense, but the rest is pretty good so far.
The realistic and perfect Bai Yueguang heroine who meets all expectations, has the world in mind, is people-oriented, and is the greatest person under heaven. Anyone who likes to watch plots + career-oriented + empress' invincible growth + non-heartthrob beauties can watch it.
