Palace-intrigue story: the heroine is crafty and resourceful, but won't provoke others unless they provoke her. The emperor favors her, and eventually she becomes his one and only. She falls in love with him in the end, and the story should be logical. Has anyone read Ye Yun? I'm looking for something like that.

I read over sixty chapters in one go and found it so exciting that I couldn't put it down. The female lead is beautiful, skilled, and has a distinct personality. She died a tragic death in her previous life, and this life seems to be about revenge while also finding love. All the characters are very unique.
I clicked on this from a post about people having no books to read, and when I saw there were no ratings, I wasn't planning on reading it. However, after flipping through a few pages, I was surprised to find that the plot was quite engaging and the characters were well-developed.
So far, it's not bad. I don't know if the male lead is the same goofy guy from the Qin Dynasty 🤦. He's not a typical scumbag; I even feel a little sorry for him. The female lead is super beautiful and highly skilled in martial arts. I want to see a "wife-chasing-after-the-cremation" scene. Not many people are reading this book, I'm so afraid the author will abandon it 🤦
It's very exciting. I was drawn in by the synopsis. In her previous life, the female protagonist endured and survived for the sake of her family. After being reborn, she began to take revenge. First, she ruined the reputation of the scumbag and the bitch. Then, she went to Yanmen Pass and used her military merits to get a divorce.
I've watched over 100 episodes and I think it's pretty good. I don't know why the rating is so low, so I'll give it a perfect score. There are no endless misunderstandings, no repetitive plots, and the female lead isn't pretentious. She's my type and fits my aesthetic preferences! I've read over 300 chapters, but I can't continue. The female lead is such a hypocrite.
A very good book
This book is absolutely amazing, I highly recommend it!!
I've been reading books for years but never followed one before. This is my first time following one. Good luck! 💪
It's gripping. I just want to keep watching.
The plot is fast-paced, the logic is clear, and the characters are well-developed, making it worth watching.
