   A Palace Maid Becomes a Consort! Don't be fooled by the title; the low rating is due to a lack of reviews. It's a good story that doesn't glorify feudal society, doesn't involve female rivalry or romantic love, and features a palace maid who rises to power. The female lead is intelligent, develops gradually, and there's female mutual support. It's logical, doesn't suffer from low intelligence or romantic fantasies, leans towards slice-of-life palace intrigue, and has an ensemble cast. The writing is also quite good. I wrote this myself; it hasn't been published yet and has no traffic, so I can only promote it myself. Life is tough, and writing is difficult, so please support and understand! The title of my humble work is rather common, but it's definitely not a melodramatic story. I'll be updating twice a day; please take a look. Thank you!
