    You can read these two books, the characters and storylines are relatively new. These two books are very consistent. The first one is more of a female protagonist. The heroine herself is super powerful. She always feels happy to take revenge. There is a male protagonist and the character is also very good. She is a rare and elegant type in period novels. But in this novel, love is just an adjustment before, so the relationship and marriage will be confirmed very later. The heroine keeps rescuing and reborn. The supporting characters in this novel are the main plot. The story is relatively new, and the heroine's strength is off the charts. The second book is more about the feelings of family and country and working together to strengthen the country. There are not too many parents who are mean-spirited. Of course, the relationship between the male and female protagonists must be sweet. The male and female protagonists' IQs are always online and they will not let their enemies fool around for too long. The female protagonist's golden finger is also very reasonable. The heroine goes back to the past in order to contribute her own power to strengthen the country. The heroine can hear the sounds of antiques and animals, and relies on this skill to catch bad guys and criminals along the way. The storyline is not bland but full of passion.
