    Here they come! The first book is a traditional domestic power struggle + revenge against scumbags + alternate Republic of China + forced marriage + female protagonist Yan Xin is reborn. After being reborn, she takes revenge on her scumbag husband, her vicious cousin, and a group of bloodsuckers in her husband's family. She's incredibly good at slapping people in the face, probably honed under Jing Yuanzhao's tutelage. The second book is set in the Republic of China era, a time of war and chaos, with warlords ruling their own territories. On the day Suzhou fell, Qiao Wan was treated like merchandise, offered to the new masters of the three northwestern provinces. Years later, Qiao Wan stood under the hanging flower gate, facing the tall figure kneeling in the courtyard for a whole afternoon, and called out languidly, "General, come here." The third book is about an ordinary working person who suddenly obtains a system, but before she can even enjoy its benefits, she's tricked into going to a parallel world of the Republic of China, beginning her life as a spy. The fourth book is about Ning Zhen being forced to marry the warlord Sheng Changyu. Sheng Changyu has a white moonlight (his first love) and two concubines, making the Sheng family's inner quarters fraught with crisis. Ning Zhen, a wealthy heiress who returned from studying abroad, couldn't adapt to the power struggles within the household, and everyone waited to see her fail. Less than three years later, as everyone predicted, Ning Zhen wanted a divorce. Not because she was kicked out, but because the arrogant warlord pleaded with red eyes, "Can you please not leave me?" The fifth book is not virginal! Enter at your own risk! A love story between a warlord's son and a general's daughter—excessively doting on his wife, sweet and indulgent. In the warlord-dominated Republic of China era, Qin Qing only wanted a peaceful life, to protect her family and hold onto the family fortune. The young warlord Yue was a playboy, indulging in countless affairs, treating women like clothes, only interested in the new and never the old. On her birthday banquet, she pulled the trigger, hitting him, and also hitting his heart. The sixth book is about Fu Wanchu, a lonely and helpless former Qing Dynasty princess whose life involved three men. One was her childhood sweetheart, but they eventually became strangers; the other was a charming and alluring man who drove her to utter ruin; the other was a philandering and cunning young master from a wealthy family, with whom she finally found true love and stayed together until old age.

    The male and female leads are childhood sweethearts who grew up together. It's incredibly good, but you'll need patience as the setup in the beginning is a bit lengthy. The female lead is a bit naive and innocent at first, but she matures and becomes very capable and intelligent later on. The male lead's identity remains a mystery.
