    This book has a really interesting premise. The author is a huge fan of early historical romance novels. It features a ruthless, fake concubine's daughter who is actually the legitimate daughter, and a gentle, cunning young master. Later, it features a cold, skilled female general and a seemingly innocent but actually ruthless imperial advisor. The protagonist is reborn and changes her tragic fate, but forgets the short-lived imperial advisor who died for her! The premise is incredibly moving, with a lot of setup. I'll add it to my bookshelf and add it to my collection slowly. ♡
