    A must-read for fans of brainy palace intrigue novels featuring strong female protagonists!!! The female lead enters the game herself, rising from a courtesan in Yangzhou to an empress, remaining clear-headed throughout, with the ultimate goal of slaying the emperor!! The relationships between characters, whether helping or opposing, are logically sound, not mindless, yet incredibly satisfying. The author portrays all the characters, protagonists and supporting roles, with great depth (the multifaceted nature of humanity). The female lead's greatest asset is the male lead (a true eunuch), but their relationship evolves into a power struggle, with the male lead ultimately winning her over!

    I'll try again. Three of the books are about rebirth, and two of them are about pseudo-siblings who are too biased towards their older brother.

    ① Pei Yan was deep in thought when Jiang Shuyi suddenly murmured bitterly, "Jiang Wanqing, if there is an afterlife, I will not let you go..." ② "Ye Jiujiu, have I spoiled you too much? You actually dared to elope!" ③ Nan Zhiyuan dreamed that she died, on the seventh day after Xie Qingjue brought back that woman. These are all rebirth novels, good-looking, and highly rated.
