   ①Be, pure ancient, the heroine's family is in decline, she is framed, she climbs to a high position (Queen) by means of her own means, the case of the year is reaffirmed. Alas, no one is at fault for what happened back then, none of you are at fault. The one who is at fault is the Queen Mother and the Zhang family. ②Fantasy, rebirth, no CP. This is the only book I have read so far in which the heroine is reborn without revenge, no cool stories, and no confession from others. It is very bland, but it made me cry for a long time. Bai Yi, I hate you who was abandoned by your parents. I hate you who remembered your friends all your life because they wanted to eat mung bean cakes from your hometown. I hate you who was betrayed by your friends but didn't complain (for a reason). I hate you who was hated by everyone in heaven and still sacrificed for the world. I hate your unselfishness.
