Ten Years as a Palace Maid

Any Good Short Novels?

Are There No Stories Where the Heroine Is Not a Concubine but a Palace Maid?

I searched all over and found articles about palace maids becoming concubines. Does it have to be the emperor's woman? A story about a palace maid who begs not to enter the harem! Can the sister who is pushing the book see clearly T-T Please don't let the palace maids in the early stage enter the harem behind them, and refuse palace fights, no matter how good-looking they are🙅

Any Stories Where the Vicious Female Supporting Character Awakens, Gets Even More Evil, and Dumps the Original Male Lead?

I'm looking for books like *The Villainess Is Doomed to Live as a Widow? Brother-in-Law, I'm So Scared*. Historical or modern romance is fine. Ideally, the villainess comes from a great family and everyone dotes on her. Absolutely nothing where the characters are forcibly made stupid, then the villainess wakes up and still revolves around the leads, shamelessly fawning over them.

Female-Oriented Cultivation Novels: No Comedy, No System, and No Princess Consort Stories

Looking for books similar to The Unhinged Junior Martial Uncle Lacks Virtue in the Five Elements (Qie Du Wushuang).
