It's really good to read. The author's writing is very good. I admire the heroine here very much. This is the style and means of a noble lady from a noble family. Many ancient women always act very incompetent and stupid when they are injured, waiting for men to regret it, or disappear and run away or commit suicide to become a scumbag. I really look down on such young ladies.
It is a very well-written and enjoyable story, with a very good logic and plot. The special point is that the best characters tear each other apart, and the villain is not directly killed but tortured. To be honest, I really don't like killing villains directly. I was tortured for so many years in my previous life, and when I woke up, I killed the villain with a knife and gave him a happy life? Of course it's only right to let him live a life that would be worse than death.
The house fighting part in it is really exciting, and the plot of Yun Qianqian's reunion and separation is the climax. The design is intertwined and very convincing. The palace fighting part is a bit weak, and when it comes to governance, it's just a general boast. The official configuration is also quite novel. The first handsome face that appeared described Mr. Lu as that of the eldest princess. The uncle who stood up for her in her previous life also had no fate. Later, Dr. Jiang only appeared in her life briefly. But in the end, Mr. Qin was a careful little puppy. It should be the author's preference, basically it's a sister-brother relationship. Not suitable for readers like me.
Not bad, not bad, very good-looking. I picked it up from the previous book by Prince of Souls. I just updated Chapter 20, let's wait and see when it gets fatter.
The novel gets better and better the further I read it. I like the wisdom of the heroine. The author has a profound writing skills and the narrative logic of the text is clear, which makes the heroine's intelligence fully reflected! The plot of the story is intertwined and very immersive. The power struggle behind the heroine is more attractive. The heroine is transparent. I wonder if she will have a CP with Mr. Lu later.
I've read almost a third of the way through it, and when I saw the author asking for good reviews online, I decided to give it a quick review. I haven't found any big surprises so far. The only shortcoming may be that when I first met Lu He, the description of their appearance was very abrupt and embarrassing. Reading the comments, they all said it was the male protagonist, but in fact, he didn't seem to be... Otherwise, the overall rhythm of the writing is moderate, making it more comfortable to read. The portrayal of the villain is not rigid, but all actions are logical. The heroine is very meticulous in her work, and tries her best to think of all the reactions of other people, which makes the viewer feel at ease. I've finished reading. I've finished reading. I've finished reading. Say the important things three times! Actually, I haven't finished watching all the extra episodes, but I think it's almost enough to watch the second extra episode. Overall, I can give it 4.5 Points. The point of deduction is that there are too many words and inks in the middle. I don't think it's a big deal because the eldest princess is too long. It's considered a group portrait. But I don't understand spending several chapters writing about Lu and so on in detail. I think it's just a matter of mentioning Just one mouthful is enough. After all, if you know that he took his mother's surname and had a bad relationship with his father and stepmother, you can roughly know what happened back then. Moreover, as Lu is the official consort of the eldest princess (it is not an official consort, but a relationship that can kiss), there is no need to spend so much writing. After taking a look at the bad reviews, I half guessed that the male protagonist was merciful and felt that the heroine was merciful, and the other half felt that there was too little space to write about the heroine and too much focus on the eldest princess. These two problems do exist, but it is undeniable that this book is still good-looking, especially in the first part of the book where the heroine basically has no plans, and only after the divorce. There have been problems, big and small, including but not limited to, there is an additional setting that the heroine must marry someone in order to detoxify from the poison. I was really unhappy when I saw it. Fortunately, in the end, they didn't really get married, and they didn't stay away from home. Although they came back a little later, I really didn't like the heroine being controlled by others... There is nothing else. The supporting characters are bad for a reason. The heroine also knows that the biggest villain is her ex-husband. In fact, it was the ex-husband who seduced the sister-in-law and tricked her into following her, which led to a lot of trouble later. The operation of setting up a trap to lock the two people up is really cool, especially when the sister-in-law fights her ex-husband desperately. I won't go into details, but I will finish the ending of these two people in the extra chapter. Oh yes, the reason why this article is not marked as CP is probably because the heroine takes on a young man in the last few chapters. Although it is mentioned briefly in the article, technically there is a male protagonist (if the female protagonist is the male protagonist), but this male protagonist does not even have a name, only a surname, so don't guess who the male protagonist is. It is best for the female protagonist to be beautiful alone (a man will only affect the speed of her drawing the sword. [Sneaky laugh]
It's beautiful, the heroine is not a virgin, step by step, very beautiful
It looks good. I like people who are decisive in killing and not sloppy. It would be perfect if they were not reborn. When they find clues, they ask for confirmation. When they get confirmation, they make a killing move. This life's revenge will be repaid in this life [Cool]
It's good to watch. The author is asking for an update. I hope the male protagonist in the love story can be anyone but not Song Laosan. After all, the female protagonist can be beautiful alone. Don't go round and round and go back to the Song family. That would break my heart.
I watched it for several hours at a time, it was so enjoyable! As a novel about ancient rebirth and house fighting, it successfully captured my pleasure and is the best novel I have read recently. The plot is exciting and refreshing, the heroine has a distinct image, and she is not a virgin.
