    I just finished reading it today. It's not long. The female lead is a time-traveler, and the male lead is handsome, rich, and resourceful. He loves the female lead more than anything, even her younger brother (a case of "love me, love my dog"). The female lead is a princess who loves her brother more than the male lead. Her emperor cousin is willing to become a puppet for her, willingly drinking poison and being eaten by countless insects. The siblings escape the capital together. The brother suffers terribly, but he lives on for his sister. The female lead also schemes for her brother. Every misunderstanding between the male and female leads is resolved within three chapters. The female lead is very good at sweet-talking and coaxing people. The male lead gives the female lead 200,000 taels of silver every month to squander. To help her brother seize the throne, he spends money like water, practically paving a smooth road for him with money. It's good. In the early stages, the female lead is constantly using her wits and courage. At first, you might think the female lead is too weak, but as you read on, it's really good.

    Reader note

    My work is the novel *Under the Evil World* by Tomato Novels. I'm not a Chinese Language and Literature major, so I can't write exceptionally well. I only care about readership; I don't seek payment. If you'd like to take a look at my work, you can first find Chapter 2, "The Novelist's Determination," where I'll explain my creative philosophy. As for whether this book is a masterpiece or not, that's for the readers to decide! The story has a main text and side stories framework. The main text is supernatural and suspenseful, while the side stories encompass various styles. The author appears as a character in the book, providing humor but not interfering with the plot. Please forgive my less-than-perfect writing style!
