    This book is super good-looking. The heroine is from a secluded family. She is light and refined. The hero is the emperor's minion and has been living a very dark life. The heroine is his light and his salvation. It is pure ancient Chinese. The author's writing style is very good and logical. It is not a mindless white novel.
