    I don't recommend things randomly. I've been reading historical fiction for three years, and these are pretty good. The female leads are independent, strong, and capable; they're eloquent and strong. For example, in the second book, the female lead enjoys farming, managing household chores, and also studies and takes the college entrance exam. There's no black market trading like in other novels, but the female lead is given a sack and she does everything herself—amazing! I also really like the third book, but it's currently updating too infrequently.

    My current favorite, I'm following it every day. If you like Su He, you absolutely must check this out!!! It's a political novel with a female protagonist, no system or cheat codes. The author writes exceptionally well, and because it's so solid and full of content, some readers found it boring at first 🤭. It's more of an ensemble piece, not just about the female protagonist's amazing feats; there are many excellent characters involved. I love the female author!

    The first book's male lead is a soldier who becomes mentally impaired due to injury. Before his parents are sent to the countryside, they entrust him to the female lead's family (who come with their own money). He recovers later, and the interactions between the male and female leads are quite sweet. I really liked the second book; it's a "feel-good" novel where you fight back against any awful character, which is very satisfying to read and not at all frustrating. I recommend it. I finished the following books and gave them four stars each. I skipped some parts, but overall they were good, considering there aren't many truly good books out there.
