   🍃This is the only book that has a male and female protagonist since I read the novel. The male protagonist is difficult to reconcile, so this book has two endings. The author's writing is very good and makes people feel very soothing. Four brushes🍃The male protagonist traveled to ancient times. They were originally going to talk about marriage, but even though they were thousands of years apart, the male protagonist was afraid of the female protagonist. He knew how to time travel, so he left all the options he could in this feudal dynasty. The feudal dynasty was harsh on women, but the heroine had just traveled to this dynasty. Duan Qidai (the second male) had been dead for a month, and the love was shallow. The hero was the prince of the feudal dynasty.
