These three books are the ones with the most plots that I have read. The first one is about the queen coming out of the cold palace. You know how she starts strategizing as soon as she comes out. The second one is just like the name. After the house is confiscated, the heroine leads a family of women and children to survive. Due to various reasons, there is no peace anyway. It all depends on the heroine's planning and the emotional line is very weak. The third one is about two generals. It can only be said that there is a little bit of the heroine's planning. Compared with the previous two, this conspiracy is nothing.

Rebirth and revenge + double skills of medicine and poison + mutual favor between the two strong men + all the members' scheming + palace battles. Highlighted reminder: Refuse to outwit the villain, all members have 800 scheming, peak wits! In the previous life, Shen Nanzhi, the legitimate daughter of the Duke of Zhenguo, went blind and worked hard to save the scumbag by using forbidden magic. What happened instead was that the scumbag and Bai Lian's cousin secretly set up Chencang, causing all the loyal members of the Shen family to die tragically! After Nirvana and rebirth, she held the silver needle in her hand and returned to the day when she introduced poison to the scumbag to extend her life. Faced with the scumbag's expectations and his cousin's fake cry, Shen Nanzhi sneered and withdrew the needle: "I don't understand the poison. Since my cousin is so affectionate, why not let you bleed and cut the flesh?" In this life, she has torn away the disguise, mastered both medicine and poisoning, and raised dead people from their flesh and bones! Xiao Duo, the regent of Dayuan, was the living king of hell with all the power in the government and the public, but he was tortured by strange poisons. Shen Nanzhi threw down the antidote and said coldly and arrogantly, "I will save the life of the prince. How about lending me your knife to kill all the demons and monsters?" Everyone in the world thought that the daughter of the Duke was just a delicate canary in the palm of the living hell. It wasn't until the powerful officials from all walks of life appeared on stage, and the decisive moves emerged one after another, that everyone was horrified to discover that the seemingly weak Shen Nanzhi was actually the full-level female Zhuge who was in charge of the world of chess and had all the plans! She and he faced life and death back to back, met gods and killed gods, and manipulated the civil and military forces of the entire dynasty at the palm of their hands! When the bloody road is cut through, the world will be at peace. The iron-blooded regent who had made Jiuzhou frightened had lost all his venom and locked her tightly in his arms. His voice was low and crazy: "Zhizhi, the country has been decided. With these beautiful mountains and rivers thousands of miles away, when will you be willing to give me a place?!" - The decisive and decisive medical poison queen × the crazy regents who bowed to her, joined forces to slaughter all the evil spirits!

I want to see that every step is a calculation, every game is a game, there is no good luck from the sky, and there is no brainless slap in the face. All comebacks, breakthroughs, and summits all depend on forbearance, planning, people's control, and step-by-step decisions. This is the top quality that a Machiavellian writing should have - strategizing, taking action after making a decision, and having no regrets when making a move. The chess game here is never just about court disputes, but the multiple pulls between human nature, current situation, pros and cons, and life and death. The protagonist is never born strong. He is trapped in the whirlpool of troubled times, the shackles of clans, and the game of imperial power. He lurks, tolerates, plans, and breaks the situation. Every concession is a retreat in order to advance, every silence is a preparation for attack, and seemingly indifferent words and deeds have already laid several layers of foreshadowing. There are no stupid villains, and everyone's IQs face off online. The opponents are ruthless and meticulous, the allies have their own agendas, and the chess game changes rapidly. You will never guess the next reversal, and you will not be able to understand the deep layout. It is not until the ending review that you realize that the protagonist has already calculated thousands of miles away. For book friends who prefer deep city palaces, strong layouts, full of wits, and careful thinking and power-based writing, this type of top-level chess game with step-by-step strategies will definitely be your cup of tea.
