    It's a good read; this kind of novel can give people an uplifting feeling. Although it's about rebirth, it still has an uplifting force. The female protagonist does things that are appropriate for this era. Actually, whether it's time travel or rebirth, it should have characteristics that fit the era, rather than just someone who travels to ancient times and suddenly becomes all-powerful. If it's not realistic, you might as well not read it.

    The first book is a sweet romance novel; the male and female leads are incredibly sweet together. Highly recommended! The second book, by Su He, is about a woman who's calculating with every glance. It's very good, mainly about how the female lead thrived in that era. Her eloquence is the best I've ever seen. The plot is rigorous, with no wasted words; she's the most concise writer I've ever read. The key point is that the female lead is incredibly capable—no exaggeration whatsoever. She has high emotional intelligence, a silver tongue, is adaptable, quick-witted, intelligent, and bold. Highly recommended! You'll regret not reading it! The third book is more of an ensemble piece; each character's traits are fully described. It's very good, definitely worth the read!
