Completed Historical Romance That'll Have You Grinning the Whole Way Through
A completed historical romance, very sweet with no angst. Reborn is fine. Both leads should be strong, and the female lead shouldn't be a self-sacrificing saint or a fake innocent. She should be socially savvy. 😍 Thanks so much, lovely ladies and gentlemen! 😘

Comforting Marriage First, Love Later
Looking for a marriage-first, love-later story where the couple treats each other with respect and there's no melodramatic, bitter feud between them. The male lead respects the heroine, making the story really pleasant to read. Nothing like an outrageous domineering CEO story, please. A little angst is fine, haha.

Ancient Romance Novels That Leave You Stunned to the Core

Historical Romance, Historical Romance, Historical Romance!!! You Have No Idea How Long It's Been Since I Read One 😂
I can’t find any good historical romances! Preferably not too long, no more than a little over a million words. It has to be good! Ideally, the heroine is reborn or transmigrates, gets revenge on the scumbags, and has a doting hero. One-on-one romance, both leads faithful to each other!!! No angst! A little angst at most! The hero must not have any other consorts.

Good-looking, good-looking, I especially like that the male protagonist thinks that the female protagonist wants to hug him but is afraid to hug him, so she can only hug him through her clothes. "I can hug you" and then he took the initiative to hug the heroine. It's really su [crazy][crazy][crazy][loving][loving] Self-defeating male protagonist
The writing is pretty good, and there are no problems with the logic. It's just that some of the heroine's operations and some deliberate actions are a little hard to describe, but it's innocuous. The emotions are still very delicate, and the writing is heart-warming [Blow kiss]
It's quite good to watch, but here's a reminder: People who don't like to read some of the more vile old customs should not read it, because the author has also written this in. Although no one complained about that part, I still want to say it in advance.
This article belongs to the kind of delicate article that flows like water. The interaction between the male and female protagonists is described in special details. It is not the kind of short-lived life but the kind of trivial things that make people's hearts beat. You can feel the progression of emotions between the male and female protagonists. It is very good. I personally like it very much. And it is obvious that the writing style of this article is getting better and better in the later period. Especially in terms of scenery description and plot integration, the latter part is much better than the previous one, and it has a very visual feel. The male protagonist was relatively gloomy and cold in the early days, but fortunately he was not indifferent but cold. He treated the female protagonist well. The female protagonist was cute and lively. She had her own little thoughts and courage, although I can't say it was great, but she was not big either. She was not afraid of trouble and would take the initiative when encountering trouble. Although she was not the common type of female protagonist who was brave and needlessly awesome and practiced martial arts and medicine. She was relatively ordinary, but she also had her own charm. The portrayal of other characters in it is also okay, especially the portrayal of the prince in the later period. This character is written very fully, and it does not mean that poor people must be hateful. It just makes the character's behavior logic and image more full. People are not black and white in the first place. However, the character creation in the early stage is not as good as that in the later stage, but this may be said to be that the author has improved more and more as he writes later... I can't help but look forward to the author's subsequent articles! The ending is a bit sudden. Although there is no deep hatred in the story, and the whole tone is written as a sweet story about falling in love, the male protagonist feels that he has been burdened a lot. There are a lot of other supporting characters that I haven't mentioned yet. I don't know if there are any other characters related to the extras. I'll wait until I finish. XD Overall, highly recommended! Like it!
There is no misunderstanding. [Sending Hearts] It is sweet and the writing is smooth. The male protagonist is considerate, powerful, and resourceful, which is in contrast to the female protagonist who is bold, smart, and the funny language is the point of laughter. The strategy chapter advances the story line step by step and makes it clear [Adoration]
It looks good. There are more plot lines than emotional lines. The plot line is based on the revenge of the male protagonist. However, because the female protagonist has nothing to do with the revenge of the male protagonist, the female protagonist has no sense of presence in the plot line. However, the plot line is quite interesting. The emotional line between the male and female protagonists is like a long and thin one, which grows over time. It is very well written [heartfelt] How can I put it, I always feel that the description of the female protagonist is a little lacking, mainly because the female protagonist's sense of participation in this article is to get along with the male protagonist and fall in love. She has nothing else to do (personal feeling). If you don't mind this, I recommend you to read it. The author's writing style is still very good.
From the perspective of the love line, it can basically be regarded as a sweet story. It can be regarded as an atypical marriage first and love later, and there are basically no major twists and turns in the process. In order to protect herself, the female protagonist decided to try to make the male protagonist fall in love with her and avoid being abandoned in the future to keep her handsome. What she didn't expect was that although the male protagonist was very good at strategizing, he was still a piece of cake in terms of relationships. The description of the male protagonist's mood and emotional changes in this process is very delicate and natural. In contrast, the female protagonist also acted with sincerity. There is relatively little writing about this transition, which I think is a pity. Apart from the emotional line, I personally think this book is better written in terms of intrigue. Although it is a classic story, with the emperor being suspicious, the male protagonist carrying a blood feud, and the princes being at odds, the author handles it in a very clever way. Probably because this story is so common, the author simply does not approach the plot from the perspective of suspense and revealing the truth. Instead, he focuses more on shaping the characters to reflect the social environment. Many interactions between supporting characters that have nothing to do with the male and female protagonists are well written. Generally speaking, the narrative technique is excellent, the emotional line is very sweet, and the writing is excellent. It is a good book. Of course, if it's just my personal taste, I would prefer to see a little torture in the emotional line... But the male protagonist is really too bitter, forget it, ugh😔
I really couldn't stop reading this book! The author not only made the protagonist's character three-dimensional and full, but also made his movements, emotions and joys as delicate as a real person. Every small detail made me feel the inner temperature of the character. The writing style is also very delicate and smooth, and the emotions flow naturally when reading. It has the beauty of ancient charm without making people feel stiff. What's even more commendable is that the supporting characters are not tool people. Each one has his own soul and story, with online IQ and reasonable behavior, making the entire world view more vivid and credible. The overall plot advancement is at just the right pace, with climaxes coming one after another without losing the emotional foreshadowing. After reading it, I just feel that it is still unfinished and I am full of admiration! Thank you very much to the author for bringing such a wonderful work, and I look forward to more great works!
The writing is very delicate, and unlike many time travel novels where the heroine is always looking for differences, the heroine in this book has been carefully blending into the ancient times and is afraid of being found out about her otherness, but she is very optimistic about life. The reason why I gave it a five points is because the author dealt with the heroine's mood after time travel and the hero's revenge. He is persistent in restoring his identity but has always used the identity of Gu Hean to repay his adoptive father and adoptive mother for saving his life and raising him. Many details are also very touching. Even if they are not explained in a few words, they are still very warm. For example, Gu's mother's family actually knows that the male protagonist is not the real Gu Hean, but everyone regards him as their own.
The plot content is quite good, but the names are a little confusing, and the character settings are quite good. The main characters are still male and female, and the other characters have a slightly less sense of existence. I personally think this article is a kind of emotional growth article - Chang Nian has been helpless and then slowly understands his own feelings. He An or Wu Ye also has a reason to live from the beginning to revenge. The Gu and his wife's knots are slowly unraveling. Anyway, it's he, feel free to come and see it [shy][cool][like]
