These four ancient proverbs about female protagonists are not allowed to be read by anyone, including Jue Jue Zi and Tomato TOP. In the first book, the heroine travels back and knows that she will be exiled later. When the old emperor was in power, the heroine has been preparing for the exile later. After the death of the old emperor, the world was in chaos, and all the heroes were vying for the throne. The heroine took advantage of the situation. She was brave and strategic and had business acumen. The hero's family were all military generals. The heroine expanded the territory and conquered the world. It was super exciting. The heroine's father and the old ministers were super humorous. I loved it! In the second book, the heroine's father is so powerful that he shocks the protagonist. The emperor wants to kill the heroine's father. The heroine's father is terrifyingly strong. The emperor is in vain and the heroine is also very domineering. At the banquet, someone framed the heroine and pushed her into the water. The heroine kicked her down in full view of everyone and pushed her with a stick to make her choke. He said that if she did it, he would never let her wet her shoes. It was so enjoyable to watch! No one dares to mess with the heroine's family. The heroine's father is away at war, and the dog emperor gives him no money or food. The heroine goes into business secretly behind her father's back, and then sends food to her father at the critical moment. His father wants the heroine to be the emperor, but the heroine refuses. After letting her brother take over, his father still left an imperial edict to the heroine, saying that she could take over at any time if she regrets it. He also told his close ministers that if one day there is a conflict between the heroine and the new emperor, he should listen to the heroine. He loves his father to death! In the third book, a woman disguises herself as a man and takes the scientific examination for six yuan and becomes the first prize. Along the way, the heroine deciphers all kinds of conspiracies and plots. After a narrow escape in the court, she finally realizes that women can also take the scientific examination and lift the sea ban. It is very long but very interesting! The heroine of this book is crazy. The story is about the prime minister's daughter being dismembered among the flowers on her wedding day. Every case is interesting, and all the cases are linked together into one big thread. Anyway, it is interesting, so let me read them all! I like the emperor the most in this book. He kills indiscriminately and leaves no bad guys behind. He kills like crazy and lets the ladies in the harem cuckold him. Everything is under his control. Even the secrets of the palace are not kept secret. He is just and strict, and he is an emperor who always keeps his heart! I just cried a lot about many cases. I missed all of them by mistake, and we were separated by life and death. Alas! Go read them all, every book is beautiful! This is my collection of this series!

I strongly recommend this book. The heroine is decisive in killing and is at the center of power. She uses her body to seek life for the people. Although it is a novel about women, the focus is not on emotions. The emotional line is just a seasoning. The heroine has a full career line. On the other hand, the author cherishes the female characters in his novel.

Although this is not a novel about a female protagonist, it is very interesting. The male protagonist travels to the Northern and Southern Dynasties and pretends to be the Wang family of Langya. It is very interesting. The author has a high historical and cultural background. It is not a verbal novel. I highly recommend it to old bookworms.

[Wife Chasing Crematorium] "I imprisoned him for three years. He didn't know. During those three thousand nights, I endured it every time I turned around." The defense was broken!!! "I'm Sick, But I Have a Strong Weapon" - a book that kept me up for five whole nights about the "double-power conspiracy" ceiling! 📖 The story begins with a bloody wedding: At the end of the long street, three thousand Xuanjia troops crushed the phoenix crown. Yan Zhuohua tore open the red silk under her wedding dress, revealing a black outfit. Only then did the noble lady of Manjing know that the sick eldest princess, who had coughed up blood for five years, was the behind-the-scenes commander of the 100,000-strong Xuanjia army at the border. And there was a person sitting on her horse. Xiao Zhi, the former regent who was dragged out of the dead by her three years ago and imprisoned in a secret room for three years. The whole city was in an uproar. The Queen Mother's people knelt on the ground. He didn't know that she imprisoned him for three years because every time she looked at him, she would think of the look in his eyes that night when he blocked the knife for her. 🔥 Why did this book make me want to read more? ❶ The first "female prisoner and male + two strong men flirting with each other"! It's not a cliché way of being kept captive by a hegemon. The heroine locks him in a secret room and visits him four times a month for half an hour each time - talking about military power, business, and nothing else. Until late one night, she opened the door and walked in: "Lend me the complete military talisman." He took out the half piece from under the pillow and put it into her hand: "Come back alive." ❷ The opening chapter is full of bangs, and the chapters have hooks! Chapter 1: Confrontation in a secret room, Chapter 2: The Empress Dowager's visit, Chapter 3: Cavalry on the street, Chapter 4: War declared at the border, Chapter 5: The kiss in the shadow of the grain pile, Chapter 6: He blocked the knife for her, Chapter 7: Burning the enemy camp, Chapter 8: His old troops come to surrender, Chapter 9: Names all over the wall, Chapter 10: Holding hands in the snow... The end of each chapter is stuck in a place where your heart skips a beat! ❸ The host and hostess are amazing! The female protagonist appears to be sickly, but in fact she is decisive in killing - "The year I coughed up blood, I killed seven thousand people at the border." The male protagonist appears to be submissive, but in fact he has been secretly planning for three years, carving her name all over the secret room. Dual heroes + villain + boss, sparks fly in every rivalry scene! ❹ It's not that you're stupid and sweet, you just laughed and cried. Do you think it's just two people working together to build a career? Wrong! When he kept the key warm for three years, when she squatted down and held the chain on his ankle, when he said "hand me over" and she replied "you are mine" - you will find that under the machinations, there are two hearts that have endured for three years. 📚 If you are tired of seeing industrial saccharine and the same silly sweetness, read this book! The old saying is about Machiavellian plotting, the two strong men flirting with each other, and the ending of chasing the wife in the crematorium. The textual research party is at ease (border wars and court games are all referenced), the emotional party is more at ease (each chapter has tear points/sugar points/knife points). 👉 The bookshelf has been added, no nonsense, just rush! Watch how the eldest princess returns south with three thousand Xuanjia troops, and has the former regent kneel in the snow, block swords, and carve a whole wall for her!

Even though its name is ridiculous, she is a big heroine. The heroine first forced a slut to rebel just to survive, and then began to plan a long-term constitution. She has a system but is not very useful. She has only appeared once. The logic is clear and people are passionate about it. Although it is still being serialized, it will definitely become a big hit.
