    I love all three of these books, but my favorite is "The Founding Empress." I absolutely adore the female lead; she's intelligent, wise, and has a broad perspective. She's a strong leader with maximum charisma, impeccable logic, and no superpowers or special abilities. It's truly amazing! The first book is a civil service exam novel where the female lead achieves the highest rank, becoming a top scholar. She's focused on her career, ambitious, and has a distinct personality. I love the third book too. While the first two books had a more politically charged element, the third book features a female lead with maximum fighting prowess. Of course, that doesn't mean she's simple-minded. Wrong! The female lead is a strong, courageous, and resourceful woman focused on her career—who wouldn't love that?

This book 🤩 has character reversals that will absolutely exceed your expectations, but it's not melodramatic!!! The plot is very tight, and there's not a single dull moment. It's so enjoyable!! The female lead breaks through the limitations of ancient times 🚫 and becomes a person capable of balancing family and national righteousness, worthy of being called a goddess! 2️⃣ The subject matter is amazing! The first book I read was about someone who transmigrated to become a teacher, and a female teacher at that! 👍👍👍 In ancient times, teachers were mostly men, so you can imagine... The author handles the conflicts and difficulties in this book very well, and these descriptions are also part of the book's climaxes!! 3️⃣ and 4️⃣, although both are still ongoing, they are both very good, and I really want to share them. If you can't read the ongoing series, you can read them while waiting for the next one to finish! 3️⃣ The female protagonist dresses as a man to help her brother become a county magistrate. There are no cheat codes; every hardship is the result of the female protagonist's wisdom and the best choices made under her circumstances. She takes whatever comes her way, which is quite realistic. There are no writing flaws, and I'm really looking forward to the female protagonist revealing her true identity! 😂😂😂 4️⃣ It's not just one person being reborn; it's both the Phoenix Ordinary Man and the aloof female protagonist being reborn. The Ordinary Man thinks the female protagonist likes him and that he can become someone of high status. However, he is so angry that he vomits blood and faints after the female protagonist, whose eyes have been healed, chooses the current male protagonist, whom the country owes her from her previous life.
