I want a smart female lead with a high status who knows when to keep a low profile or conceal her abilities 🙈 No scummy fathers and stepmothers, or concubine half-sisters constantly causing petty trouble in the household. No sweet romance, just a pure historical power struggle 🤗

✨I found a treasure! Tomato's super hard-core Machiavellian masterpiece "[Blood in the Door] Twin Sisters Return in Blood" ✨ I sincerely recommend it to book friends who like to watch Machiavellian struggles! The plot design of this book is so clever. Substitute marriage is not only an exchange of identities, but also a game of life and death. There is no golden finger, it all relies on the IQ of the twin sisters to fight to the end. The high-energy reversal is constant, the revenge rhythm is full, and it makes people breathless. If you want to experience the ultimate pleasure of Machiavellian strategy and IQ crushing, this book is definitely not to be missed! 👭🔥

Although the first book is about fighting in the palace and in the house, it actually focuses on the heroine's escape and traveling around the country, watching the concubine and the prince's strategies to solve the disputes among the countries. The writing is quite good. The second book is a serious history book. The real history is more twists and turns than the novel. It is very interesting to read it in conjunction with the first book. The plot is sophisticated, complex, and powerful, far from being comparable to the first book. The most important thing is that it's really not boring.

Tomato Machiavellian story, the later stage is very brain-burning, be sure to look to the end, the ending is reversed again and again, everything is evenly matched. It is an ancient story about palace fighting and house fighting, group portrait power plot, there are no useless characters in it, power competition, and the plot is novel. The heroine is the emperor of the underworld. In order to regain the seven emotions and six desires that are about to transform and win a place in the ninth heaven, she decides to agree to heaven and go to the human world to end the upcoming war. Although she loves the male protagonist more than her career, it is not a harem story but pure Platonic love. There are many foreshadowings in the early stage. Everyone is the heroine's pawn. The ending is reversed again and again. Everyone has a belonging. Full perspective of the group portrait.

2-The heroine comes from a modern political family, travels through ten years of ancient times, and plans for ten years. When the original heroine is reborn (the process is very fast and not delayed), she starts to fight for power in the palace (mainly in the court). The heroine basically develops her own people above the court. Finally, the heroine ascends the throne and becomes the empress. She is highly capable and has no surprises in the whole process. The heroine is decisive in killing, using the world as a chessboard, playing chess behind her back, and truly strategizing the world. The male protagonist prefers the female protagonist, which is full of youthful feeling. Great heroine story.

Empress Changsun was definitely the leading heroine of the Tang Dynasty at that time, but her husband Li Shimin was too powerful and could only be the woman behind him. However, her talents were not buried by the star-studded Zhenguan ministers, and she was called the woman behind the Zhenguan rule by historians. In the Shura field of the Sui and Tang Dynasties, there was a battle of wits, courage and ruthlessness; Emperor Zhenguan and the young couple supported each other and strived for a peaceful and prosperous age for the people of the world. It is adapted from history, not a historical fiction. There is power, there is war, there is great justice.

Recommend the completed novel [The End of the Female Bank Manager]. It's been a long time since I've seen such a professional and realistic book. There is no water in the whole process, and the pace is so fast that I don't dare to miss a detail. The logical thinking is tight, the story has ups and downs, and human nature, wisdom, and power are unfolded, crushed, and spread out to talk about. In particular, a large amount of professional knowledge about finance, industry, equity, and even the system is written clearly and thoroughly. In the book, there is also a best friend who steals her boyfriend, and the heroine, who is single at an advanced age, secretly gives birth to a child and legally adopts it. It can be said that there is no omission.
