    The first book features a female protagonist who is the emperor's favorite from the moment she enters the palace. The male protagonist dotes on her, and her rank rises rapidly. Although her family treated her badly when she was young, the emperor gives her unparalleled favor after she enters the palace (the male protagonist had a child before meeting the female protagonist, but he dotes on her exclusively after meeting her). The second book features a virgin protagonist. In her previous life, the female protagonist was given poisoned wine and died because of her family (there was a misunderstanding). The male protagonist used his own lifespan to allow the female protagonist to be reborn. Unlike ordinary rebirths, it is not a strict second life, but rather a rebirth in the 10th year after the female protagonist's death, with her soul reborn into another person's body. In this life, the female protagonist has experienced love she has never had before. The entire book has no tragic elements in the relationship between the male and female protagonists. It is very warm and touching. The girls in the author's writing are not strictly bad people; each of them has their own personal charm.

    The first book is absolutely fantastic! The male lead falls in love with the female lead at first sight, and she becomes a Noble Consort as soon as she enters the palace—he dotes on her immensely. The second book starts with a lower rank, but the female lead's rank keeps rising. The third book features exclusive favor and is also very good.
