    Reader note

    🐱I just finished reading the first book, so here's a brief introduction: The female protagonist is reborn during the Chenghua era, becoming the future Empress of Zhu Youcheng. She's the famous Ming Dynasty couple known for their lifelong devotion to each other. She's also the mother of the notoriously playful Emperor Wuzong of Ming. The relationship is particularly gentle and enduring, similar to some of the other books I've read. It's a slow, steady flow, quite ordinary. I even felt like it was describing someone's life. Very ordinary, and their love has a familiar, comfortable quality, a calming tranquility. He'll bicker, she'll overthink, and they're both quite stubborn, their connection strengthened by a string of Buddhist beads. A slight spoiler: the female protagonist actually arrives in the Chenghua era as a reborn time traveler. This is the only slight drawback I found. The book isn't about the love between two young people, but rather about a young prince she encounters with hazy memories, a reborn time traveler. So, the intense passion, the clashes, the burning, scorching emotions are gone. Overall, it's very calm and enjoyable, a gentle, flowing story. It weaves the love story into your heart in a subtle way. 🐶 Well, I've actually recommended most of the later ones. The second book is a top-tier female-oriented novel set in the Ming Dynasty. It's the story of Emperor Xuande and Empress Hu, featuring a very clear-headed time-traveling woman and a reborn emperor. The third book is a rare story about the powerful minister Huo Guang and a time-traveling woman. This time-traveling woman understands human relationships well, unlike the historical Huo Qubing's wife. Well, she's not unconventional or aggressive; they get along very well, but she still cries when Huo Qubing dies. The fourth book is a story I really like about Zhu Yijun and Empress Wang (Wang Rongyu). Empress Wang doesn't exhibit many of the time-traveling characteristics of the other time-travelers. She even seems to have integrated into society, like an ordinary person who has become part of ancient society. Although she still retains some characteristics of a time traveler, she seems to have become part of the era. Her story with Emperor Shenzong is awkward. It's about two awkward people with an awkward relationship. The fifth book is hard to review; it showed me another side of the Zhenguan couple, not the respectful and loving couple described in historical records or even by later generations. While I personally don't like it as much as the other books I recommended, I still do. The sixth book is also about the Tang Dynasty, which I think is great. It gave me some understanding of the Tang Dynasty during the reign of Emperor Li Zhi. Li Zhi is no longer the weak man I thought of who only relied on Wu Zetian; he suddenly became cunning in my mind. Hehehe, it's rare to see such a scheming Li Zhi. Generally, in our minds, he's the kind of naive and weak-willed person who can't be helped. But from this, we can see that he's also a very calculating person. After all, when his elder brothers were fighting, no one expected that he would ascend the throne alone. (👉🏻This is a very subjective opinion. If you disagree, please don't criticize me. Really, I didn't mean to force you to read it. I really didn't mean that. I just think the book I recommended is very good from my personal perspective. I hope you won't have any objections. If you do have objections, please don't say them. My fragile heart can't take your criticism.)

    ① It's really good! The theme is quite novel. Having read so many Ming Dynasty fanfics, this is the first time I've seen one where the protagonist transmigrates into Empress Ma's body. ② The content is excellent, and I absolutely love the female lead's personality! It's a pity the writing style is somewhat lacking. ③ This book has a very gentle feel to it; the writing is very comfortable to read. I really enjoyed reading chapters 70 and 80; it was very pleasant, unlike some books that I sometimes find irritating and impatient.
