"You all came to propose marriage for him, why wasn't he present?" The man looked at her with dark eyes, stared at it for a moment, and moved his lips word by word, "I am the one who came to propose marriage."

The heroine is really smart, cautious, and thoughtful. She is almost the most perfect heroine in the novels I have read. And the male protagonist is also very rare. In a palace fighting novel, for the first time, I felt reluctant to let go of the male protagonist. Maybe it's because the male protagonist always stays in the best year and the best moment for the female protagonist.

The heroines are very sober. I have to mention the heroines in these two books. Shen Yunshu and Xiao Wangshu are really resourceful, sober and independent beings who always know what they want. ① The heroines are not arrogant because they are time travellers, trying to change the fate of others, or feel that they are very awesome. The description of some ancient scenes and the handling of interpersonal relationships are very interesting. ② My favorite traitorous heroine! I especially like it when the female protagonist is scheming against others. Although there is a male protagonist, it can be completely ignored. My favorite is the traitorous minister, and all the villains are super interesting. Go and see
