That is undoubtedly this book. The heroine is not unfavored, and the emperor is also very sober. The concubines in the harem are related to the previous dynasty, and whoever he likes is related to the family behind them. The heroine was an exception. She was sent in by her family to give birth to a baby for the imperial concubine. The emperor didn't like the imperial concubine, and she had no intention of being attached to the imperial concubine. Anyway, she just confessed to the emperor on a daily basis. After confessing for so many years, she almost took it seriously. In fact, the heroine was very sober. The heroine knows when to do something, and she doesn't rise up one step at a time. In the end, she becomes the queen and the queen mother. I really like the emperor.

Reader note

The heroine in this book is not favored, has no wisdom and no love! Life is difficult, and writing is not easy. Without a debut show or traffic, I can only push myself. IQ is on the line, if you don't compete with women, you don't love men, if you don't love the brain, if you have logic, it won't lower your intelligence. The reason for the low rating is because there are few people commenting, and it's a good article that doesn't praise feudal society! The heroine who is not in love, the humanoid emperor [face covering] growth-type heroine, women help each other, prefer to fight in the palace every day, prefer to be like a group, the writing is also good. The name of my humble work is rather vulgar, but it is definitely not a bloody novel. It is updated twice a day. Please take a look at it. Thank you!
