    "The Commoner Queen," a sister novel to "I Came to the Capital to Break Off My Engagement," shares the same time-travel theme but avoids melodrama. The female protagonist respects the ancient order and never reveals herself, demonstrating impeccable self-protection! Excerpt: At the end of the field, stood a girl in simple white clothes. She was slender, dressed in the simplest cotton dress, the hem even stained with a few mud spots. Her black hair was loosely tied up with a wooden hairpin, and she wore no other adornments. However, her face was strikingly beautiful, her skin a healthy honey color from years of sun and wind, her eyebrows and eyes delicate, her eyes especially clear, as if reflecting the true colors of heaven and earth. She stood there, with the boundless green fields behind her, seemingly one with the land, radiating a tranquil yet vibrant life force. This was Fu Xueyuan. A faint hint of amazement flashed across Xiao Chengyu's eyes, quickly replaced by calm. Definitely worth reading.
