   ♥ First book: Fits the typical palace intrigue/domestic power struggle genre, clearly showing that women are merely pawns in the imperial power game, and there's no such thing as a lifelong, monogamous relationship. The protagonist is intelligent, cunning, and resourceful, undergoing a transformation amidst waves of risks. ♥ Second book: The plot is fast-paced, the characters are well-developed, and the story follows the protagonist as they gradually come to understand themselves and the world. They gradually gain a clearer understanding of "imperial supremacy" and the so-called "serving the people." ♥ Third book: The female protagonist, after transmigrating, doesn't abuse her newfound space; she's humane and very likable. The story is engaging, humorous, and very entertaining.

Characters: ♠️ Xie Zhifei (The Cunning Young Master): A seemingly sickly nobleman, but actually a mad and doting mastermind who's both charming and spoiling the female lead. ♥️ Yan Sanhe (The Mystical and Arrogant Sister): A hardcore girl with the ability to communicate with the spirit world; she's better at divination with a compass than with chopsticks. ♦️ Zhu Qing (The Loyal Bodyguard): Exceptionally strong, but constantly subjected to his master's displays of affection. ♣️ Xie Daozhi (The Old Fox of the Clan): A cunning and shrewd head of the family. High-energy plot: A cast of villains + a shocking plot twist! The female lead is sacrificed and married off to the Xie family ancestor in a coffin.
