It is a palace fight story that can be read, especially the male and female protagonists are well portrayed. What I like the most is the male protagonist's control over the harem. I am the only one who doesn't want to pursue everything, but I know it all (I once saw the male protagonist in this palace fight and didn't know anything. Two concubines in the harem were causing trouble one after another. The male protagonist would only investigate and get angry. The investigation has not yet come out, but the setting is a wise emperor...) The concubine is not simply doted on, but has the political checks and balances of the previous dynasty. The female protagonist is like a little goblin doted on the concubine. If you have the brains to figure it out, the male protagonist is currently taking the lead, the female protagonist is still awake, and the beloved concubine plays the role of a worker. There are many types of articles that I like to read. I also searched for Gong Dou Wen on Tomato. To be honest, there are many popular 9. High-scoring articles that I haven't read. This is one of the few Gong Dou Wen that I can read on Tomato. Good reviews.
Oh my god, this is the first one I've seen where the emperor can quickly recognize his love and seduce the heroine to truly fall in love with him. In the previous stories, the emperor only realized true love at the end. . It feels very difficult
It's nice to watch, and the heroine has a great personality. But the most outstanding thing is the male protagonist's checks and balances on the previous dynasty and his control over the harem. After watching too many times, the harem seems like a plug to the emperor who has the power to act arbitrarily. How could such a powerful emperor allow his harem to be like a vegetable market? A wise king must have the ability to control the harem. He can not interfere or let things go, but he will never be ignorant of everything. The design of the male protagonist is very good, and the contrast between self-guided strategies is also very cute.
Both the female protagonist and the male protagonist are scheming, sensitive and cautious, and super smart. They are like masters! The heroine can pretend and act, lie without changing her expression, flirt just right, get along with each other freely, test the bottom line little by little, increase her own weight little by little, and directly control her hard. The male protagonist gradually becomes interested in her, becomes extremely possessive, jealous, entangled, and able to coax himself. He knows clearly that she may not be so pure, but still falls for her, full of pulling and pulling, very beautiful!
Good looking The male protagonist is an emperor and his brain is on the line. There are no other palace fighting novels where the female protagonist loses her mind when she sees her. She is very sensible. The heroine is also very sensible, smart, and measured
2026.2.14 Very readable, didn't skip a chapter to read. As the emperor, the male protagonist is in control of the previous harem, and he is an emperor with great power and strategizing. The female protagonist is present in the past, scheming and sober. From the beginning, she wanted to ascend to the highest position but was moved by the male protagonist. Her emotional line is natural and logical. I won't say that the beginning is a brainless doting. The male and female protagonists, especially the male protagonist, have obvious heartbeat processes. From childhood doting, partial doting to being the only doting, it gave the female protagonist a full sense of security and made the female protagonist who originally thought she would not dare to give up her heart as long as she had power fall in love with her. From then on, the two fell in love with each other. The female protagonist can be read, the whole story is basically free of abuse, and the minor abuse is just a flirtation (just a young couple's flirting), and she later successfully gave birth to her eldest son. The ending in ancient times was that the heroine fell ill and died, and the hero died in love. But don't be too sad. The author immediately made a modern extra chapter to connect the story, and the hero and heroine lived a happy life in the second life in modern times. I have finished reading a long article, and I still feel a little emotional. I hope that the male and female protagonists can continue to be happy in a world that readers cannot see😄 Borrowed from the Sisters Downstairs book review: "Both the heroine and the hero are scheming, sensitive and cautious, and super smart. They are like masters! The heroine can pretend and act, lie without changing her face, tease just the right amount, get along with each other freely, test the bottom line little by little, and aggravate little by little. He controls his own weight directly, and the male protagonist gradually becomes obsessed with her, becoming extremely possessive, jealous, entangled, and coaxing himself. He clearly knows that she may not be so pure, but he still falls for her. It is full of pulling and pulling, very beautiful! " "It's good to watch, and the heroine has a very good character. But the most outstanding thing is the hero's checks and balances on the previous dynasty and control of the harem. I have seen too many emperors who have power and are arbitrary, and the harem is like a plug. How could such a powerful emperor let go? Is the harem like a vegetable market? A wise king must have the ability to control the harem. He can be non-interfering and let it go, but he will never be ignorant. The male protagonist is very good, and the contrast of self-defeating is also very cute."
The plot is very good, but it seems strange that one star was deducted for an old woman. . . . There will be at least one in each subsequent paragraph. . . . When I read a book, I habitually read it and then I feel weird. But the plot is very interesting and I like it~
I really like this article, it's a light and sweet pet story, but the male and female protagonists are really smart and strategic. The male protagonist is pampered in the early stage, but falls in love in the later stage. He really loves it! The female protagonist is reincarnated as a succubus, and she is sober in the world! Highly recommended!!!
The current chapter is not long, but I am looking forward to the follow-up. The time-traveling woman who is smart, beautiful, scheming and loves power, the emperor who sees through many things but does not tell them, is very different to the heroine. The heroine penetrates into the heart of the hero little by little and quietly adds weight slowly. Fun battle of wits and courage
It's really, really beautiful! You will know after reading the reading time! ! It's really beautiful! ! In the past, every time I read a novel, I always skipped to the end, but I didn't skip this one at all. I finished reading it completely [Adoration] Whether it is the male protagonist or the female protagonist, their images are well created and very full and three-dimensional [Adoration] Especially the male protagonist, he is a master of self-strategy [laughing], but he doesn't feel like he is losing his mind at all. On the contrary, he is very sharp but willing to sink in sobriety [laughing] The heroine is really sober! There is no plot where she falls hopelessly in love halfway. On the contrary, the heroine really wakes up all the way to the ending [laughs] but she doesn't feel like she is abusing the hero. All in all, the writing complements each other and is very exciting!
