Palace Intrigue + The Emperor's Sole Favorite, or Special Favorite Later On
Pretty much what the title says.
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.

Looking for a Fatherly Boyfriend in an Ancient Romance, Please
The male lead is calculating but dotes on the female lead, often treating her like a baby in a fatherly way. Don't make the female lead too clingy. A mischievous, quirky type would be best.

Palace and Household Intrigue with Smart Characters! Rated 9.5 or Higher!
Looking for something like Zhaohua's Chaos. Rated 9.5 or higher! The female lead should be a concubine's daughter who gradually rises from a low rank, or works her way up in the prince's household. She should be clear-headed, have no love for the emperor or prince, be ambitious, ruthless, and quick to avenge herself. And she has to be smart, smart, smart! She pretends to be a pushover and then...
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.
The Hero Is Older Than the Heroine, and His Long-Dormant Heart Is Finally Stirring
I want books like When the Old House Catches Fire: The Grand Tutor’s Sweet and Lovely Little Wife. A very good historical romance with a marriage-first, love-later plot and a devoted couple.

The Heroine Isn’t the Legal Wife, but the Hero Spoils Her Rotten
Looking for books similar to The Delicate Noble Consort Has Her Ways (also known as: The Wise Don't Fall in Love, and the Noble Consort Won't Take Responsibility). The male lead should dote on and protect the heroine, but she shouldn't be a naive, airheaded sweetheart.

I like it, the plot is not procrastinating, there are some professional terms and popular science. The heroine's character is also likable. She takes revenge when she has a grudge, but she is also very kind to good friends and people she trusts.
Recommended You can't read it as a sweet novel, it's a serious palace battle novel. Basically, it's not until the finale that the real meaning of being a single favorite is reached. What I like very much is that the heroine's inner feelings for the hero are not explicitly stated. Neither the male or female protagonists are perfect characters Although there are some small mistakes, the name is wrong and the title is wrong, but the flaws are not concealed.
It's okay, the plot doesn't drag on. Although the heroine loves to cry, she is not annoying, and she is a bit of a spoiled person. The male protagonist is also okay. Although he does favor others in the middle, he is not that showy. After all, he is an ancient emperor, which is understandable.
It's beautiful, and it really fulfills the saying "Those who love you will try their best to send you to the highest position."
So sweet!!!! The male protagonist loves to be pampered, but the female protagonist must retaliate when she is angry. She is cruel and doesn't say much.
Too little, not enough to watch 😫 I didn't expect Concubine De to die so easily? Why don't you believe it?
Nice! I've seen too many sweet pets in palace fights. This one is really fighting [admiration]. The heroine is not a kind person, she is very smart.
The heroine is thoughtful but not much. She has been tricked several times and has no plans. She is a sweet wife who is protected by the emperor.
It's very beautiful. It's the first time I've seen this type of heroine who can act coquettishly and cry. It's super beautiful 🥰🥰🥰
Great article worth reading! The more you look at it, the more flavorful it becomes! Good! ❤️❤️❤️
