"Alright, stop thinking about this and go to sleep." Zhao Qiyun patted her back and helped her sit up.

    The author's halt to writing is like a general stopping his troops; the readers eagerly await orders, like soldiers awaiting command. For writing is like warfare, and serialization is like a siege. A single day's pause weakens the defenses, three days' rest shatters morale. As Sun Tzu said, "In warfare, we have heard of swiftness in clumsiness, but never of skillful protractedness." Now, with chapters unresolved and foreshadowing hidden, it's like besieging without attacking, stagnating without advancing—not the work of a wise man. Readers are like staunch soldiers, anxiously awaiting updates, like waiting for a thunderous strike. Moreover, "victory is valued in war, not in protracted battle," and continuity in writing is valued, not stagnation. We hope the author will wield the pen like a sword, continue the story like breaking through enemy lines, quickly resolving the suspense to satisfy the readers' expectations. Otherwise, like a dulled weapon losing its edge, all that effort is wasted—wouldn't that be a pity?

The male lead dotes on her. In her previous life, she wanted to seize a high position because of her sister and son's instigation. She thought the male lead was unaware, but after he spoke up this time, she realized he knew what she had done and that he also knew her subsequent actions in the previous life. He even tolerated her framing the prince. She realized that she didn't actually need to do many things to achieve her goal; it's like having many steps only to be told that it could be accomplished in one step. It also feels like the male lead saw through her wickedness. He loves her and wants her to know what kind of person she is, wanting her to put him first. Based on that, he won't blame her for anything she does. The male lead is cunning and likes to pretend to be gentle and filial, but in reality, he knows everyone's intentions and has planted spies.
