    In palace fighting, it is not a matter of both sides. They are favored in the early stage and favored exclusively in the later stage. If you are tired of reading the same template articles, you can read this one. It's very different and unconventional. The novel is of high quality and very enjoyable to read. Based on the theme of Qing Dynasty, a female professor of modern history accidentally dressed in an ancient palace and became an emperor's favorite concubine. In the early stage, he always avoided being favored, but in the later stage, he was favored exclusively. Both the male and female protagonists have peerless looks. The heroine is gentle, cold and indifferent, and has no fight with the world. The male protagonist is unparalleled in the world, and the stranger is like jade. The heroine's sole pampering arouses the jealousy of the entire harem. The palace battles are fierce and the heroine suffers a lot. The heroine takes revenge and tears apart the vicious female partner without mercy. The female protagonist successfully travels back to modern times, and the imperial male protagonist pursues her love into modern times. Extreme pulling, full sexual tension, overflowing hormones, lots of sticking, haha

    Yi Xiu himself is the ceiling of palace fighting. After his rebirth, he is no longer blinded by love, and his structure and horizons have also opened up. From the Baylor Mansion, he planned to break the Chunyuan Bureau, and then started to secretly pick up the leaks in the Nine Dragons Seizing the Progeny. Every game is exciting, every step is quite meaningful, the plot is original, and it goes all the way to the end. Every word is cool!!?
