   Super good! Warning: The female lead isn't the strongest (the male lead doesn't know martial arts, he's an emperor), but it feels very realistic. There are more fight scenes in the early stages, less in the later stages. The writing is excellent, though the first ten chapters might be a little boring. The female lead is upright and kind, and her interactions with the male lead are somewhat funny because he loves to tease her. The male lead is aloof in the beginning, but becomes a bit obsessive and possessive in the later stages.
