Looking for Real Palace-Intrigue Dramas, No Need for Mutual First-Timers
I really don’t understand why people insist on both leads being virgins and still call it a palace-intrigue drama. If both leads are virgins, it’s not even palace intrigue anymore. Please recommend some real palace-intrigue dramas.
Stories With a Truly Free, Clear-Headed, and Rational Heroine
They don't fight over men. Their abilities extend beyond the narrow confines of their household. Palace and domestic battles always revolve around men, and whenever trouble arises, they think of relying on one man or another to solve it. They rely on themselves and take their fate into their own hands. They aren't lovesick or boy-crazy, and they live freely, making their own decisions.

It's a good read, logically sound, and the new female supporting character is from modern times, sometimes even speaking modern slang. The details are well-written, the plot is excellent, and the schemes and characters' personalities are well-matched. The rest of the plot is fine, but the new male lead is completely pointless.
It's a really good show, but I don't know if it's a no-romance show. But it seems there's a male lead, and he seems to be of quite high status. If the female lead marries him and continues to fight, it feels like jumping from one fire pit to another 😅😅
I've read many similar stories, and so far the plot seems very engaging; I'm looking forward to the sequel. If the female lead's pen pal starts to like her, then it'll be no different from other stories. I couldn't bear to read the pen pal part; it seems the author is trying to get the female lead and her together. Isn't it better for the female lead to be beautiful on her own? Further review: The later parts are too drawn out; it would have been better after the pen pal part ended.
Having read books for over a decade, I find this novel to have a well-written plot and writing style, so why is its rating so low? I'm begging you!!! Please, please, please make another story about the older and younger sisters meeting in a dream!!!
Overall, it was alright and watchable, but the female lead was too frustrated in the early stages, which was infuriating. The beginning felt unremarkable, but the later parts were quite good, especially the characterization of the female lead's mother-in-law, who felt more outstanding than the female lead later on.
It's truly excellent, a classic "feel-good" novel. Almost every character is well-developed. Chen's personality is the most captivating; her family background perfectly mirrors her personality—it's hilarious, yet tinged with a sense of justice and impulsiveness.
Why is the rating so low? Just in terms of writing style, it has already blown away a bunch of immature and pretentious 9-point novels. The villains are not stereotypical; each one has their own stance, and there are no mindless female supporting characters who engage in power struggles or villains who mindlessly target the protagonist.
The characters are very well-developed; almost every character has their own story and hidden agenda. Reading this book is like peeking into their lives. Whether they are ignorant and shallow or cunning and calculating, they are all vividly portrayed, scheming and plotting their entire lives.
Excellent! The author's writing is great, and the descriptions are very engaging! I stayed up for several nights to finish it without skipping any chapters. The plot is tightly woven! After reading many comments, I felt some parts in the beginning were illogical and stopped reading, but after finishing the whole book, I really thought it was very good.
It's so good! I finished it in one go. I love the female lead's style and the male lead's personality and deep affection for her. It's a pity there's too little romance; it wasn't enough! 😫 Author, dare you write another ancient romance with a similar infatuated, cold, obsessive-compulsive male lead? It'll scare me! 😫 The characters are all very interesting and well-developed!
