    ❶ [Transmigration + Royal Intrigue + Not a Lazy Bum + Ambitious Heroine] Shen Wei, a woman obsessed with intense competition, transmigrated into the body of a lowly maid in a royal palace. The Prince of Yan held a prestigious position, but his wives and concubines were all lazy and indifferent. The princess, born into a noble family, was as serene as a chrysanthemum; the concubine sought a lifelong monogamous relationship; the reborn woman was utterly disillusioned with the Prince and lived a life of leisure; and there was also a group of timid concubines who dared not stand out... Shen Wei, the queen of intense competition, declared: Don't stop me! I'm going to crush these spineless slackers! The Prince of Yan was used to the stagnant state of his household, but then a concubine appeared who was exceptionally skilled at vying for his favor. This concubine was beautiful, talented in literature and dance, and diligently ambitious, always bringing him endless novelty. The Prince of Yan couldn't help but glance at her a few more times, and that glance lasted a lifetime. Shen Wei became the most favored imperial concubine in the harem. The Empress remains serene and unassuming; the concubine, aged and faded, never found her lifelong love; the reborn woman still lives a simple life in a humble cottage... ❷ Lu Yunling... Has been reborn again, becoming a tool and concubine of Prince Xun once more. First, there's the love-struck, erratic transmigrated woman; then, a reborn princess seeking revenge. Caught in the middle, she only wanted to be a couch potato, but inexplicably, she was forced into this situation. In her previous life, she lived a carefree life until sixty-eight; in this life, she became pregnant shortly after her rebirth, and later gave birth to a second, third, fourth, and fifth child. Initially, Prince Xun said: "At most, I'll elevate you to a concubine or give you some money." Later, he said: "I cherish and pamper you, yet why can't I see a trace of affection in your eyes?" In Lu Yunling's eyes, love is nothing; it's just a little more than others. Sure enough, later the man had another beautiful woman by his side, yet he still wanted to pull her along, embracing her on both sides. Lu Yunling, who had been holding back for so long, said, "Screw you, I'm not playing anymore..."

    It's an imperial concubine novel. The male lead has a first wife, but it's a political marriage. He's incredibly in love with the female lead, and he doesn't love anyone else but her. The female lead is a bit silly. At the beginning, the male lead is a little defensive because the female lead doesn't want to enter the palace after her rebirth, which makes him seem a bit strange. I thought it was okay, though. The couple's flirtatious banter is sweet and sour. But I saw some negative comments. If you want to read purely sweet stuff, skip to the part where the male lead stages a rescue during the winter hunt (he orchestrates the rescue for the female lead so she can legitimately enter the palace—it's so satisfying!). It's super sweet then.

    All three are fantastic! Super sweet and romantic. The first one is about childhood sweethearts and a long-planned scheme, but it's not a virgin story. The second one is also great; in their past lives, they were exiled, and the male lead believed the female lead died saving him. After they're reborn, the male lead, who can read minds, discovers the female lead planned to abandon him and run away. She ends up taking a knife for him by a twist of fate. The third one is about the male and female leads meeting, with palace intrigue and power struggles. The plot is fast-paced, and the male lead only touches the female lead throughout the entire story. Initially, he treats her differently, but he gradually falls in love, always spoiling her. It's just that it's not finished yet, and following it is so tiring! [Laughs]
