    The first book, *Zhao Hua Luan*, is a no-brainer recommendation. The plot is tight and mind-bending, with some parts comparable to *Empresses in the Palace*. The female lead, Song Zhao, sees through the emperor's true nature and ultimately kills him to become Empress Dowager (not a virgin story). The second book, *Fu Cha Rong Yu*, features a male lead who spoils the female lead more out of habit than love. It's pitiful that Rong Yu's two children are given away for adoption, but they eventually return, albeit with a different title. Overall, these two are my favorite palace intrigue novels. The female leads are intelligent, the logic is meticulous, and plot holes are resolved later. Highly recommended.

    The first book is a palace intrigue story in the early stages. The female lead is clear-headed, has high emotional and intellectual intelligence, is charming and alluring, and has a slightly manipulative side. The tension is palpable. The female lead is Ning Shuyan, and the male lead is a bit slow to warm up. The female lead is incredibly skilled at winning over the male lead. The second book, which I didn't expect to get a short drama adaptation of, is also very good. The female lead, Su Jingyao, is opportunistic and knows exactly how to capture the male lead's heart. She's particularly adept at manipulating people, has high emotional and intellectual intelligence, and is very demanding of herself. Her skin is flawless, sparking all sorts of fantasies. In short, it's a worthwhile read.

    Look here! Look here! 😘😘😘 [Top Post][Top Post][Top Post][Top Post] Shen Qingfu transmigrated into a rebirth novel. The female protagonist, Chu Can, and Crown Prince Ning Xuanli were childhood sweethearts. Reborn, she sought not love, but power and wealth. To become the most special person in the Crown Prince's heart, she used a strategy of feigned indifference, relying solely on tactics, not genuine affection. Shen Qingfu was merely an insignificant cannon fodder in this rebirth novel. Shen Qingfu smiled contemptuously. Cannon fodder? Since you want to play hard to get, don't blame me for going along with it. Ning Xuanli's heart, she wanted. The supreme power, she wanted too. Life is like a play, all about acting. Just act it out. Years later, the emperor Ning Xuanli, who loved her dearly, embraced Shen Qingfu, his eyes reddening, "Afu, whether you love me or not, I want you, to be with me for life..."
