    Of these books, the first one features a heroine of humble origins. The male lead deeply loves her and hides her during the struggle for the throne, but she is discovered by the enemy and tragically dies, leaving behind only a daughter. The male lead tries everything to bring her back to life, but the reborn heroine no longer loves him and is currently pursuing her. The second book is very good. The heroine is not naive and innocent; she is very clear-headed. To save herself, she submits to the male lead. When he makes her his concubine, she runs away. The male lead hides her true identity, causing her to misunderstand him. He is also close to pursuing her and has loved her throughout. The third book is a complete tragedy. A loyal general and a seemingly gentle emperor both love the heroine. The emperor is the gentle type and loves her deeply, but her involvement in politics leads to his suspicion. To seek revenge, the heroine impersonates the daughter of her enemy and enters the palace. The ending is a tragic one. Book 4 is very engaging; those interested should check it out. The female protagonist is a transmigrated soul, a very intelligent woman. Initially, she likes Zhang Yi, and after his death, she avenges him. Later, she is moved by Bai Qi and falls in love with him. The story unfolds gradually and is very enjoyable. Books 5 and 6 both feature a chase where she is constantly on the run, unable to escape.
