The Viperous Favorite Consort: Scheming Her Way to Rule as Empress Dowager

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 Stories with a Powerful Female Lead Who Wields Power and Controls the Tide of Events

I want stories where a woman advances step by step and occupies a high position. I do not want male characters with stronger personalities or more presence than the female characters helping her. Romance is fine, but it must never compromise her fundamental interests.

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

I really don’t understand why people insist on both leads being virgins and still call it a palace-intrigue drama. If both leads are virgins, it’s not even palace intrigue anymore. Please recommend some real palace-intrigue dramas.

Looking for a Self-Interested, Selfish Heroine! Absolutely No Saintly Do-Gooder or Charity, Just Cold and Unburdened

Looking for books like I Thrive as the Worst Person in My Era by Being Ruthlessly Self-Serving. I want a female lead who wouldn't lift a finger even if a bottle fell over! She shouldn't help with any chores! Stories set in a past era, farming stories, historical romances, or escape-and-refugee stories are all fine! Please recommend some, ladies! She can sometimes put on a fake sweet act...

Everyone, Recommend Some Real Palace-Intrigue Stories

I’ve read so many stories where the leads are each other’s only partners, the female lead gets ridiculous later on, the emperor favors her for no reason, and her family is low-ranking but somehow she can skip several ranks at a time. I want a palace-intrigue story that makes a bit more sense, please, I’m begging you.

A Truly Evil Female Lead, Absolutely Self-Serving, No CP, Everything for Power

Looking for books similar to The Villain Behind the Scenes Becomes a God Through Devouring. The female lead is a genuine villain, absolutely self-serving, with no romantic pairing. Everything is for the sake of power.

A Heroine Who's Rotten to the Core

Any stories with a female lead who's exceptionally wicked and will do anything to achieve her goals? Someone of noble status, not a pushover, with incredible fighting skills, utterly evil, and a major villain.

She's powerful from the start and shows no mercy, not even to her family. If anyone threatens her, she kills them and tortures them mercilessly.

Any Stories About Domestic or Palace Intrigue Where the Female Lead Is the Official Wife From the Start?

Nothing with OOC background characters, and no silly, naive, doted-on heroines who rely on men. I want a story where the legal wife’s position is secure and she knows exactly what she wants. (I really don’t enjoy The Daily Life of the Mistress of the Household, so please stop recommending it.) I don’t like stepmothers either...

Palace Intrigue with Open, Unabashed Favoritism and Exclusive Devotion

Looking for books similar to The Beautiful and Soft Lady-in-Waiting Is Spoiled Endlessly by the Cold-Blooded Crown Prince. Palace intrigue or entertainment-world crossovers are both fine. I want open, obvious affection, not a heroine who's a target in plain sight. From the start, she should be the favored one, preferably the only one he favors. Ideally, once he has or falls in love with the heroine, they should both be sexually inexperienced.

NOT a manipulative bitch!!!
