   Then I must recommend this book. Real palace fighting, fighting purely for the sake of fighting, with a palace fighting simulator to slap you in the face, and even a dog passing by will be kicked. The female protagonist is in the palace, with clear goals and no distracting thoughts. She is quick and accurate in her actions. She has the emperor firmly under her control, but she never loves the emperor. The writing is a bit clumsy, but it is very refreshing to watch. I personally think it is worth reading.

    This book is super good. The male and female protagonists are twins. Then the male protagonist discovers that the female protagonist is also reborn on the first day after he is reborn. The female protagonist never realizes that the male protagonist is reborn. The reborn female protagonist marries the wrong person in her previous life, so she seals off her love in this life. The male protagonist suppresses it in her previous life and watches the female protagonist marry someone else. After the death of the female protagonist in the previous life, the body is well preserved by the male protagonist. The reborn female protagonist often dreams about what happened after her death in the previous life. I think this way of inserting narrative is quite good. Overall, this book is really good to read.
