Do Period Novels Really Have to Send the Characters to the Countryside? Looking for Ones That Don’t
Every single historical-era novel is about educated youth being sent to the countryside, or petty rural dramas. Can these authors write anything other than educated youth? Are there any historical-era novels that aren't about going to the countryside or rural life? Even something about spies in the 1940s would be fine!!!

It's chapter 84 now. Although the female lead is portrayed as a villain, she hasn't actively attacked or hurt anyone. Although the male and female leads have gone from being lovers to being enemies, what does that have to do with our villainous female lead? She's just playing the role of the original male lead's devoted girlfriend according to the plot.
It's alright, but the female lead's fighting skills are too low, and she has no ability to protect herself. However, her scheming and strategy are quite good. I prefer a female lead who is selfish and doesn't help others.
It's not bad. The female lead is quite shrewd and capable compared to her peers, but she's still a bit naive compared to those seasoned veterans. She can't hide her true feelings in public, though she can do it well in front of her target. But once they can't see her, she immediately changes her tune. It's only because the author arranged for her to only be seen by the man surnamed Su that she's in trouble; otherwise, she'd be in for a serious accident.
It certainly stayed true to the character's persona throughout. The author also kept saying the female lead lacked moral values, yet she never faltered. But I think she's still a good person. She has some malicious intent and a cynical side, but she never truly harmed good people. Even when she harmed the people in the cowshed, she knew they were bad. That's why most people wouldn't be able to understand this.
It's good. I feel the original male lead character was well-written; he had more presence than the male lead himself. 😂
I finished reading it in one go. The post-apocalyptic world is inherently morally corrupt, and selfishness is not wrong. Although she doesn't have strong combat power and her superpowers are not very noticeable, she is still much better than other characters in the post-apocalyptic world who act like saints, have overflowing sympathy, lower their standards for men, and have no sense of vigilance. It feels like someone is finally writing with a brain.
The combination of a white dress, rural setting, and a particular era is incredibly unappealing. You can see this in rural areas with muddy weddings (which happen every few days).
It's not bad; it's somewhat like an unconventional revenge story of a reborn villain.
It was a good watch, and the ending for the male lead was also quite good; his crime didn't warrant death.
It's good-looking. I like these kinds of villains with clear goals, after all, I'm not exactly a good person myself 🤭🤭🤭🤭
