   Hey everyone~ I'm recommending some really good palace intrigue novels!! The female leads are clear-headed and not brainless! They're shrewd and decisive~ First book: The female lead is gentle and considerate, doesn't act recklessly, and values loyalty. The male lead has a low profile in the early stages, but later he spoils her rotten! Second book: The female lead is a master of palace intrigue!! The emperor adores her~ but the female lead doesn't love the emperor~ (The emperor is impure~ Later, he avoids touching his concubines for the sake of the female lead!) Super exciting~ Third book: The male lead is a true playboy~ but doesn't cause trouble, doesn't steal, and doesn't cause problems (maybe emmmm his mind was full of pure stupidity in the early stages). The female lead is like a caring older sister~ the male lead is completely smitten~ Both are virgins~ Fourth book: There's a system at the beginning~ the male lead will fall in love with the female lead later~ but he's suspicious and sensitive in the early stages (he has a white moonlight... Emmm, a similar character to Wanwan), the male lead is impure~ but... But...! The female protagonist is beautiful, kind-hearted, and not a saint—she loves children, but the system essentially forced her to have them; she longs to go home more. (Waaaa, this is a new book... I'll skip the serialization... I can't get enough!!) As for the fifth book, I haven't read it in a long time. The female protagonist has a life simulation system—she must reach the rank of Imperial Concubine—but the male protagonist falls in love with her later. Every time she simulates life, she's either the Empress or her relationship with the male protagonist ends. The male protagonist bestows the title of Empress upon her after her death. Pfft.

   These palace intrigue and domestic power struggle novels are pretty good, all rated 9.1 or higher. The first six are long novels, and the last three are light novels set in the Qing Dynasty.

    Recommended rating: Full marks! There are a few slightly angsty parts, but overall it's good and highly recommended. The only downside is that the villains take a long time to finally die. The male and female leads have great personalities and aren't the typical love-obsessed type. Synopsis: In her previous life, the female lead, Chu Miao, foolishly persecuted loyal officials in her pursuit of becoming the Crown Prince's consort and being with the Crown Prince, only to be cruelly killed by him. After her death, the one who killed everyone for her was none other than Xiao Rongjin, the very prince of Rong'an whom she had so desperately wanted to kill. After her rebirth, under the tutelage of the legendary mountain healer Ye Sheng, she transformed from Gu Jiaoniang back into her true name, Chu Miao. She returned to the time when she was recognized by the Chu family, and to the time when her so-called sister and the noble ladies around her bullied her. No longer weak or afraid, she reclaimed her hairpin. This scene was witnessed by Xiao Rongjin, who had been secretly observing them. She recounted her ordeal to the Chu matriarch, catching her "sister" Chu Yaoxue off guard. To her shock, Xiao Rongjin actually testified for Chu Miao, thus reversing the impression of weakness left on the matriarch in her previous life. She also encountered her husband, Rong'an Prince Xiao Rongjin, whom she had wronged most in her past life. Afterwards, calculating the time, she remembered her past life and realized Xiao Rongjin was about to encounter trouble. She found him, ostensibly to express her gratitude, but advised him to be careful of those around him to prevent any traitors from harming him. Afterwards, Chu Miao, with a heart full of remorse, constantly reminded Xiao Rongjin of his sins, and unknowingly fell in love with him. Xiao Rongjin, too, fell in love with Chu Miao at first sight… After overcoming countless hardships, Chu Miao prevented the tragedies of her past life, ultimately saving the Xiao family. She lived with Xiao Rongjin and had a daughter, but then Chu Miao fell ill… Xiao Rongjin returned from his campaign, but did not see the person he longed for day and night. Finally, by chance, he overheard his mother, the Princess of Pingnan, mentioning the news of Chu Miao's death. Upon learning this, Xiao Rongjin was in a daze. He sought to see Chu Miao again, climbing three thousand steps, bowing nine times with each step, finally finding the holy physician Ye Sheng, Chu Miao's master before she returned to the Chu family. Seeing Xiao Rongjin's determination and feeling sorry for Chu Miao, Ye Sheng went to the Gu family. Their second young lady resembled Chu Miao, and since the second young lady was dying, he discussed it with Gu Xian, the eldest brother of the Gu family. They agreed to use the second young lady's body to revive Chu Miao, but her memories had to be erased… Chu Miao was reborn as the second young lady of the Gu family, coincidentally still named Gu Jiaoniang. When she met Xiao Rongjin, he recognized her. It turned out that while erasing his memories, he had filled the room with drawings of Chu Miao and recorded their moments together. Gu Jiaoniang also loved Xiao Rongjin, but the thought of his deceased wife looking exactly like her made her believe she was just a substitute. Eventually, through various events, the fragmented scenes finally came back to life, and she remembered everything in an accident. She then married Xiao Rongjin again, and he vowed never to leave Gu Jiaoniang again. But what followed was far from peaceful… In short, I really enjoyed reading it and highly recommend it to everyone.

    This book doesn't involve time travel, but it's still being written. Judging from the synopsis, it's likely a tragic ending (BE). You can check it out if you're interested. The theme isn't about imperial concubines; it focuses on the imperial court.

    These four stories are not time-travel novels, and they have a clear structure, simple descriptions, and are not very long. The first book is the story of the female protagonist's struggle from humble beginnings to prominence, but it doesn't focus on romance; it generally revolves around doing practical things for the people and the country. The second to fourth books are by the same author, and all three stories are mainly about romance, with some continuity, but the connection isn't very strong. They all tell the story of how the female protagonist is cared for from childhood to adulthood.
