   The plot is unconventional and logically organized. The kind where readers are tortured and run away, a series of group portraits of sadomasochism in the palace, traditional palace fights, and brain-busting stories. The heroine uses clever strategies to get revenge in the palace and kill the enemy with one stone. Have you ever seen Gong Douwen where both men and women fight? It depicts the tragedy of the ancient feudal system and shows the brutality of court struggle and the complexity of human nature. Each character in the book is very three-dimensional and has his own purpose and persistence. It is not a double story. The heroine and the male protagonist have a sadomasochistic relationship.

He was dressed in black and black trousers, holding his hands in his pockets, "This is a business marriage. I can't say whether I regret it or not."
