   Wow, finally a fresh and original historical fiction novel! I've read so many historical novels, and they all feel so similar, always the same few plot points, nothing new. I stumbled upon this one while searching for historical fiction, and after reading just a chapter or two, I was immediately drawn in by the unique storyline. It's really good! Great job, author! Keep writing, update more often, don't be lazy!

   It's quite good. The female lead has amazing powers and is very kind. The author's writing is also good. What I like most is that it doesn't focus on describing the female lead's appearance. Some older female lead novels, even though the female lead is already quite old, still emphasize her beauty, which feels ridiculous. But this novel doesn't do that. Recommended.
