High-Quality Ancient-Era Political Intrigue. I've Outgrown Ordinary Historical Romance

High-quality historical romance, with either a strong male or female lead. I want characters who seem genuinely smart. Most of what I've read lately has been pretty cerebral, either deeply philosophical or very logically consistent. No transmigration, golden fingers, or Systems. Pure historical romance.
