    It's a story about transmigrating into a book and being reborn simultaneously. It's one of the few palace intrigue novels I've read that I found truly impactful. The plot isn't overly rigid; the ending shows the characters' awakening, becoming fully fleshed-out human beings, breaking free from the control of the "plot," which greatly elevates the book's quality. The initial evenly matched struggle and battles of wits between Jiao Jiao and Shen Yuanbai are truly moving. In the end, their former greatest enemies become friends, making the plot incredibly unexpected. Girls, just look at the ratings—it's absolutely amazing!!!
