Reader note

The ancient story of palace fighting is really a classic. I have been reading this kind of novel recently. In the first novel, the heroine was reborn before her family was killed. So she knelt in the powerful prime minister's house for three days to seek power from the prime minister. She became famous in the capital and the prime minister couldn't sit still when her family was broken down to ask for marriage. In the second book, when the heroine was five years old, her entire family was wiped out because of a bead. She was rescued by the Lord of the Medicine King Valley. When she grew up, she entered the palace with only one purpose, which was to stand in a high position and have her entire family slaughtered in exchange for their lives. It was very interesting👀
