   He who possesses the Phoenix Maiden possesses the world; the Phoenix Maiden belongs to all the people. The female protagonist ultimately unifies four kingdoms, thinking of all humanity, believing that "children are the hope of mankind." This book is also filled with many unresolved issues: the old woman praying for peace and blessings, Wang Fang protecting Qinghe, the Xiyue clan members willingly cutting off their own flesh to save their child, Yue Huan, the magistrate of Wuzhou who tragically died while mobilizing troops to the front lines, the former Nie Fu, the former village chief of Muyang Village, and Alan and Ayao (although the epilogue is happy, it's still heartbreaking). I rarely finish an ancient novel without skipping a chapter; this is one of them.

   The first book features a cunning and ambitious female protagonist who is the mastermind behind the entire story, but she disguises herself very well and eventually becomes everyone's ideal woman. The second book isn't a typical rebirth/redemption or revenge story; the protagonist is a talented dancer, and the second male lead is just as capable as the male lead. Books 3 and 4 aren't typical rebirth/transmigration stories; both belong to the strong female lead genre, with the female lead even being somewhat more capable than the male lead. These two books have been on my bookshelf for five years. Books 5 and 6 feature selfish and vicious female protagonists who seek revenge immediately, often through subtle means, leaving the victims knowing the female lead is responsible but without evidence—it's incredibly satisfying to read.

Xiao Yao's descriptions of porcelain, jade, and ancient paintings are detailed and avoid clichéd plots.

    1. To save her life, the female lead uses her smooth talk to win over a young Miao man with red eyes and white hair. He's naive and clueless about love, and for Ah He, he gives her his whole heart. She buys him candied hawthorns, takes him on a tour of the Central Plains, and teaches him how to be an ordinary person; they are each other's salvation. 2. The invincible cat god and the domineering yet reserved police officer are incredibly captivating. Having read many Hong Kong-style novels, this one has the most vivid and multifaceted descriptions; it's truly excellent.
