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...
Looking for Smart Palace and Household Intrigue Stories
Looking for books like Who Gets It? The Empress Wrote a Hundred Palace Rules (Wanfengchai). I've read quite a few books by now, and I sincerely hope to find more where the protagonist (preferably a woman, though a male and female lead would be fine too) actually uses their brain and isn't focused on romance...

Looking for Stories About a Clear-headed Matriarch Managing Her Household and Battling the Other Women in the Family
Looking for books similar to The Daily Life of the Principal Wife. I want a heroine who's not lovesick, focuses on managing the household and outmaneuvering her rivals, doesn't rely on men, doesn't let herself be wronged, and isn't a pushover. Both the heroine and the villains should think things through carefully, and the villains shouldn't suddenly become stupid just to help the plot.

A Transmigrated Woman Can't Beat a Woman from Ancient Times
In ancient times, young ladies from powerful families were taught from childhood. Other girls were already fighting in the imperial palace and household intrigues at fourteen or fifteen, while people nowadays are still hopelessly romance-brained in their twenties. I want to see whether any author can satisfy my imagination

It's good-looking and interesting. Three people travel through time and four are reborn.
It's interesting to be reborn and fight a time-traveling girl
Nice! It has a bland, everyday feel, but the plot is pretty good. Recommend
The story is quite interesting. Just a little bit regretful. This is from the perspective of us outsiders. It is the best and perfect ending for the heroine.
It's pretty good. I've read similar articles like this before, but they're not great. The quality of this one is much better than the ones I've read before.
Beautiful and interesting
Quite interesting. It's just that I wrote a little hastily later on.
The ending is rushed, but the concept is relatively novel. The heroine is quite lovable, and the time-traveling woman and the love interest are a bit absurd. But overall it's still very good and worth watching.
