Synopsis

[Reborn + a desperate pursuit to win back her husband + both leads are sexually pure + palace intrigue]

[Dear readers, if you like rebirth stories and female-led novels, come take a look!]

Donglan is a country where women hold power. Empress Dongfang Qingyan has three daughters: Dongfang Yue, Dongfang Ning, and Dongfang Zhi.

In her previous life, Dongfang Ning put power above all else. After her elder sister died of illness, she devoted herself to claiming the throne. To achieve that goal, she took advantage of Xiao Muchen, the crown prince of Linxi, who loved her deeply, and used his sincere support to become empress.

But after getting what she wanted, Dongfang Ning trampled on his feelings without restraint. After being disappointed again and again, Xiao Muchen finally gave up on her and returned to Linxi. Dongfang Zhi, who had secretly loved him for years, took advantage of the opportunity and confessed her love to him many times. Several years later, when Donglan fell into crisis, Xiao Muchen led his troops there and resolved the danger. He also seized the opportunity to annex Donglan, banishing Dongfang Ning to the back palace. A year later, he married her younger sister, Dongfang Zhi. By then, Dongfang Ning's heart was full of regret. If she could live her life over again, she would choose the love meant for her and cherish the person before her, rather than pursuing the cold trappings of power.

In the end, Dongfang Ning died on the day Xiao Muchen married Dongfang Zhi.

Fortunately, heaven took pity on her and granted her a chance to be reborn. This time, she will hold on to this sincere love and never let go of the man she wronged in her previous life.

I can’t find any good historical romances! Preferably not too long, no more than a little over a million words. It has to be good! Ideally, the heroine is reborn or transmigrates, gets revenge on the scumbags, and has a doting hero. One-on-one romance, both leads faithful to each other!!! No angst! A little angst at most! The hero must not have any other consorts.

For Discerning Readers: Excellent Writing and a Captivating Opening Are a Must

I couldn't get into several of the 9.9-rated ones. Ideally, the title itself should grab my attention. The opening is the most important part, so it really needs to hook me. I'm out of books to read 🆘, and I'm open to any genre.
