I have run out of books. I am begging for a political-intrigue novel, preferably one where everyone has believable intelligence. Otherwise, reading it feels like torture.

After finishing the finale, I sat there holding my phone for a long time, feeling both empty and full, a tightness in my chest and a warmth that burned within me. Author, you are truly amazing! I was initially drawn in by the synopsis's "cross-dressing + autopsy and crime-solving" premise, thinking I'd just read it casually.
I finished reading it in two days. The plot was tight and fast-paced, the writing was excellent, and every character the author created was very lifelike. It started with a case, then moved through family feuds and power struggles, and all the threads had a clear beginning and end. The author is very talented; don't underestimate yourself. I've also read *The Evidence of Deep Sleep*, and it has a very imaginative and original plot. Keep up the good work, and I look forward to your new book.
Because the data isn't very good, I'll just update once a day for now. No more slacking off! Two updates a day! Updates will be at 8 AM and 12 PM.
It looks great! The layout is huge. I really like the female lead's personality. I don't usually follow unfinished stories, but I can't help but keep reading. I hope the author updates soon. This is brilliant! It's been a long time since I've seen such an intellectually stimulating crime-solving story. Author, I'll keep following it as long as you keep updating!
4.5 Stars. There are still many plot holes to fill; it should be a million-word story. The female lead is described as an old-fashioned transmigration character—an all-around talent, a very vibrant person. The settings for Gu and poison have a strong martial arts novel feel, a blend of political intrigue and crime-solving in an ancient Chinese setting; it's quite enjoyable to read.
When will you update with those last few questions?
The structure and pacing are both excellent, and the characters' personalities and appearances are also very good. It would be even better if the language were richer. Keep it up! I look forward to seeing even better work from you in the future!
Haha, this is so funny, I highly recommend it!
Very good. Recommended.
The crime-solving and political intrigue elements, along with the fantastic character designs of the male and female leads, are great. The only downside is the overly long plot; I'd love to know when it will end.
