Palace Intrigue, Palace Intrigue, Pure Palace Intrigue
I’m trying to find a palace-intrigue novel. I think it involved transmigration. The heroine didn’t love the emperor, though he seemed to love her. Later, once their son had grown up, the emperor grew wary of her. She gave him a drug that made him impotent and left him irritable, and so on. He eventually died suddenly.

Looking for a Normal Palace-Intrigue or Household-Intrigue Story
Are there any palace intrigue novels where the female lead doesn’t love the emperor, and the emperor doesn’t love only her either? I feel like the heroine and emperor in these stories are more like an employee and a boss. How could they possibly be in love?! Ideally the female lead shouldn’t be stunningly beautiful or rely on her looks alone.

"You can be after the emperor's looks, his protection, his power, but the one thing you shouldn't be after is his sincerity and affection." The female lead has strong morals, is clear-headed, and doesn't compete or fight for anything. I love this kind of character. The male lead fits the emperor's image, and he seems to have a bit of a soft spot for her.
It's a good read; one of the most logical books I've read on Tomato Bookstore. It has many interesting parts, a tightly woven plot, and conveys many valuable lessons. I'm not a virgin, but having had a few relationships and been cheated on, I've had some perhaps superficial thoughts. I think we need to break free from the illusion of pure innocence and being pampered by one person.
This is a really good palace intrigue novel; it's very engaging and makes you want to keep reading. The story is still ongoing, so please keep updating, author! 😅😅
The newly introduced Prince Gu is quite good; he seems to have the potential to rise to the throne. I don't like this emperor; he's indecisive and not even as good as a scumbag emperor who only cares about the country. He keeps treating the woman who's on the opposite side of his mother as his ideal woman, so that one day when he loses the throne, the female lead and the prince can live happily ever after.
Everything was fine until I saw her captured by the Demon Lord and taken to the island, and suddenly I couldn't bear to watch anymore.
The content is fast-paced and clear, and the plot is also good, so it's worth watching. It must have been so hard to catch them...
It was good at first, but then the part where the male lead was poisoned and left the palace alone, and the female lead easily forgave him after he was cured (around three-quarters of the way through), felt a little off... (I can only say the male and female leads are such a perfect match). The article is very long, almost the longest ancient romance novel I've ever read.
The overall impression was good, but there were too few updates. I felt the character development was fine; overall, it was a book that suited my taste.
This is a great book, why isn't anyone reading it? I really like the main character's personality. I think the pacing is great, and the connection between major events, minor events, and daily life is excellent. Keep up the good work, author!
I binged all the latest updates while staying home during the National Day holiday; it was so good, I wanted more!
