Good Historical Romance Novels
Absolutely incredible...
Historical Romance: Every Noble Family's Legitimate Daughter Should Have Her Proper Pride
No more than 200 chapters. The noble daughters from great families may have conflicts, but they all have the right principles. They unite when it comes to the country. The female lead is gentle and soft-spoken, a proper young lady. The male lead is refined and courteous.
Looking for Good Classical Chinese Romance Novels Set Among Aristocratic Families, with Household Intrigue and No Idiotic Characters
Looking for a purely historical romance. The male lead comes from a prominent clan and is ambitious. The female lead is his wise, dignified legal wife. I want a domestic-strife story about the two of them managing the family together.

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...

To change her situation, she planned to perform a dance associated with the current crown prince's mother at someone's birthday celebration. But the emperor took a liking to her, and she schemed her way into becoming his most cherished favorite. What was this book called?

Inner-Household Scheming Stories with a Male Lead Who Has a Past
Looking for books similar to "After Transmigrating, the Concubine Stays in the Prince's Manor and Raises Her Baby (A Concubine's Daily Life)". Pure-couple household-intrigue stories don't feel true to the era. I want a male lead who's had previous partners, and who puts power first. The heroine can either be clever and fight back or take a laid-back, carefree approach. Later on, the male lead falls in love with her.
Recommendations, Please! Ancient Farming Stories With a Transmigrated Female Lead
Please recommend transmigration farming novels. I vaguely remember the heroine transmigrated to the past, and her father was a raft worker. What was the name of that place again? I can't remember. Please help me find it.

It's beautiful! Please post a couple more pictures! Don't abandon this story! She was once an empress, so why is she still a concubine? Rebirth doesn't guarantee a good life! This female lead is an exceptional empress, and a high-quality one at that.
The story unfolds gradually and is quite enjoyable to read. I admire the female lead's character—she was once an empress, yet she could still be content as a concubine. The old lady's life is also quite legendary. I admire outstanding women, and I hope that Yu Niang and the Third Master can naturally progress to their relationship, with the female lead soon becoming the official wife.
At first, I thought the female lead was weak and incompetent, letting the vicious female supporting character cause trouble without fighting back. But later, after her mother and father were poisoned by her step-grandmother, she fought back repeatedly, directly causing her second uncle to lose his marquisate. It seemed I understood what the author was trying to express.
It's great! The female lead hides her talents and tries her best to change her past life's fate. She doesn't take the initiative to attack, but as long as someone provokes her, she will show her fangs and bite her enemy.
It's very good, you can't stop watching once you start. Although it has the rebirth trope, the plot is quite attractive. The female lead is intelligent and brave, a person who can rival the prime minister. It's just that the ending is a bit of a pity because they are separated more often than they are together.
Liu Yu's character development is natural, her family relationships are touching, and what's most remarkable is that she, having been an empress, can still accept an ordinary life. She's incredibly beautiful, I love her! The female lead is so laid-back and doesn't fight or compete at the beginning, but she becomes incredibly exciting later on, slapping the faces of the Marquis of Pingnan and the Yin Qiu Clan. It's super good, super exciting, please update faster!
Why would the female lead willingly become a concubine? I don't understand, she was the empress in her previous life! But thankfully, she was eventually elevated to the position of empress, and Master Chen fell in love with her at first sight, showering her with affection. After overcoming many hardships, they finally got together and had a baby. 😆
The story was good; I finished it without skipping any chapters 🤔... How to describe the female lead? In her past life, she was the Empress, but was fooled by Qiu Shi her whole life. In this life, she made a different choice and chose Master Chen, but apart from this choice, I didn't see anything particularly outstanding about her 🤦...
The self-discipline was extreme, and while the beginning was fairly smooth, the middle and later parts were quite confusing. I didn't understand much of it, maybe because the transitions were too drastic or something. I didn't understand the later parts, and it was quite fast-paced too. 🤔🤔🤔
The writing style needs improvement; there are occasional jarring moments. Just read the story casually.
