   The first book features a female protagonist who transmigrates into a novel; she's in politics, and the male protagonist is a soldier. The second book has the female protagonist returning to a time before she was reunited with her family. She's more involved in scientific research, but her family is quite powerful. What impressed me most was the scene during the ancestral worship ceremony where she was the only girl entering the ancestral hall—that scene left a deep impression. [You'll appreciate the details.]
