She knelt on the gravel road, her knees bleeding, and her mother stood on the porch, watching coldly. At the age of seven, Jun Li understood one thing: In this deep palace, wounds are useful. It's not for scheming, it's for asking for help. She had been begging for ten years. Someone heard her and stood behind her - the duplicitous lone wolf second prince who gave her all his wealth; the third prince who raised cranes in the abyss and gave her the most gentle understanding; the spoiled fourth prince who only ate and drank but listened to her the most. There were also people who always watched with cold eyes, some who plotted secretly, and some who wanted to drag her into the abyss. Later, she stood in the court hall and looked back. There were some people standing behind her and others standing in front of her. Then go to the end. The eldest princess Jun Li, in this game, she is not for the throne, but for those who choose to stand behind her. ——The foundation of political strategy is the human heart. People's hearts are never uniform.

The strategic writings of San Guanzheng have no brainless cheats, do not treat the audience as fools, and the logic and reasoning are consistent to the end. The overall structure is very large and a bit brain-burning. Both the male and female protagonists put their family and country first. The relationship between the king and his ministers, the relationship between teachers and students, family and friendship, and the characterization of each character are very full. There are slightly less emotional scenes with the male protagonist, but it also creates a unique sense of the overall situation in this article.
