    Reader note

    Believe me! "The Power to Favor the World" is really good to watch!!! Maybe there was really a bit of nonsense in the front or why Emperor Ming Yuan always suppressed the fifth couple, but in the end it was a good ending for Wu Yuan to become the emperor and empress. Needless to say more about "Gong Qian Liu". I was so happy at the beginning and cried like crazy afterward. The sisters in the front played very well, and the sisters left slowly in the back💔 "Gong Shu" is very bland. The heroine has no golden finger or special abilities, but she and the emperor slowly fall in love, and in the end they have a happy ending.
