The heroine traveled to ancient times and became a queen. She pretended to be cowardly, kind and gentle on the surface. High-end hunters often appeared in the form of prey. She seemed to be manipulated, but in fact, she was ruthlessly manipulated by the emperor. From the beginning to the end, she did not show any true feelings for the male protagonist. It is really good-looking, good-looking, and good-looking.

1. This is a story about fast-traveling and giving birth to a child. The heroine is rational and smart, and she catches charming beauties. PS: I can't stand it. There is also a 1v2 strategy (three people living a good life is more important than anything else). If you don't mind, you can skip it. I watched Gagale 2. The heroine has always been smart, has Shura Field, the heroine Neptune, and has always abused the male supporting characters. Although, I still like my sister very much, so I don't have CP.

16 穿 Dressed as Huifanala, He Failed to Get Promoted and Cheated All the Way. Qi ShaojunAncient Romance372k WordsOngoing 5Reads—Score—Shelves

Reader note

A novel about the Qing Dynasty's house-fighting and palace-fighting in which the heroine does not love the hero. It tells the story of the Huifa Nala clan who rose from the side of Fujin to the throne during the Qianlong period! The house fight is about how Fujin uncovers the mastermind behind the queen's house, and the palace fight is about Concubine Xian's failure in the imperial palace until she gets promoted and cheats her way to a lower position. The early chapters are a bit slow, but if you keep reading, the plot will be exciting later on, or you can skip it. The heroine is not a love brain, has a clear mind and an online IQ, and is not a virgin.
