A Story Set in The Story of Minglan That Doesn't Vilify Minglan's Grandmother
I'm so sick of those stories that make you wonder if Minglan's grandmother and mother made some secret deal, and then portray Minglan and her grandmother as villains. I like stories where Molan turns her life around, too, but can we please stop bashing Minglan and her grandmother? Is it really impossible to write a story about Molan without making Minglan and her grandmother evil?

My impression is that this is a dual-lead drama with two strong female protagonists. There's no romance, just focus on their careers, which I like. In the early episodes, she mainly focuses on her studies; when she has the same power and opportunities as men, she wants to change more than just herself.
This novel felt alive, no exaggeration. I initially disliked the male lead, really disliked him, and I still don't quite like him now, but I do come to appreciate him. He's like the worst possible opposite of what people imagine. Everyone pretends to be polite, but when they're deceived, don't they ever think about bravely resisting? Maybe they do, but they're too afraid to because of their pride.
Well, it's quite well-written, but I only started reading it because of the title "Minglan" (it could actually be renamed "The Story of Minglan: The Cultivation of Literature"). The first 10-20 chapters contain very little about Minglan (and I didn't like the male lead's attitude towards her; he seemed aloof and superior). I didn't read any further after that (the author might write better later on; those who like it can read it, but please don't criticize if you don't).
An unexpected yet logical ending. Xiuwen's female soul was overflowing, and she never changed her goal from beginning to end. Her practical shaping of Minglan in the later stages also proved her outstanding awareness and ability. However, while the fanfiction setting makes things easier for you, it also limits you a bit. I look forward to you writing an original story from a female perspective.
This book is really good. I especially love the male lead's character. The female lead, Bao Bao Minglan, is so adorable! The male lead's pampering of the female lead isn't the kind of possessive pampering, but rather a mutual growth. He shares his power with her, helping her grow, improving her abilities, and igniting her ambition.
The author's writing is truly excellent 🥰, the word choice and sentence structure are very refined, it's clear that the author understands history and culture. I'm completely impressed by the author's talent, and the writing perspective is very fresh. Keep up the good work, author! 😘😘

Overall, the book felt quite world-shaping. The author, in essence, is creating a new world within the framework of "The Story of Minglan," emphasizing destruction before construction. I strongly agree with the author's observation that the reason intelligent and capable women like Man Niang, Xiao Qinshi, and the Princess became "villains" lies in structural oppression.
The ending was initially a bit unexpected, not falling into clichés. But upon reflection, it was to be expected. The male protagonist is a woman who transmigrated into a man's body, and she wasn't mentally assimilated or even embraced the dregs of feudal society simply because she was physically male and thus a beneficiary. This is quite rare.
The first comment? So far it seems pretty good, nothing particularly offensive. I'm giving five stars to show my support and hope the author can persevere and finish writing.
