    Although it's not delicate, it's still pretty! IQ is on the line, if you don't compete with women, you don't love men, if you don't love the brain, if you have logic, it won't lower your intelligence. The reason for the low rating is because there are few comments, and it's a good article that doesn't praise feudal society! The heroine is not in love, the humanoid emperor [face covering] is a growth-type heroine, women help each other, prefer to fight in the palace on a daily basis, prefer to be like a group, and the writing is also good. I wrote it myself. It has no debut and no traffic. I can only push it by myself. Life is difficult and writing is not easy. Please give me your support and understanding! The name of my humble work is rather vulgar, but it is definitely not a bloody novel. It is updated twice a day. Please take a look at it. Thank you!
