    ✨The first book is a fierce clash between martial arts entanglements and court intrigue, where everyone has their own thoughts and consciousness. Some say this book is a pseudo-strong female lead novel, but it's more accurate to say it's a powerful alliance. It begins with a story of love at first sight and attraction, gradually teaching us about love and being loved. Su Huai is willing to give everything for Lu Yao, and Lu Yao is willing to give everything. Both are very opinionated, but Su Huai will yield to Lu Yao. The author's writing is also superb!!! ✨The second book is a pure ancient romance + Empress + Double Clean Sweet Romance + Male Lead's Long-Planned + Non-Traditional Palace Intrigue ✨The third book is fast-paced, subverts tropes, and is really super good ✨The fourth book is a story of unrequited love.
