    All three books are great novels with heroines. In the first book, the heroine started out as a thin horse, went through various setbacks and finally ascended to the throne, and fought in the palace. But the story is full and not mindless. It feels a bit like Wu Zetian. It is definitely worth watching. The second book is a really pure and refreshing novel, leaning towards power and strategy (don't go too deep into it when reading the novel). The heroine has always been the lord (yes, the lord) competing for hegemony with the princes of the world. You can check it out. The third one is a bit like an infrastructure novel, but also a novel about a female protagonist, you can also read it.
