In the first book, the female protagonist is a palace maid, and she watches the male protagonist grow up, and relationships are actually fun [laughs]. In the second book, the overall logic is very strict, and the female protagonist is very strong [punch]. In the third book, the female protagonist is just a little girl who wants to survive in the palace, and does not fall in love with the male protagonist. She is purely using the emperor. Hehe, I highly recommend the fourth book because it is very well written and the ending of the story is unexpected. I read the last chapter and regretted it very much ( Don't read the last chapter yet, keep the suspense [send your heart][send your heart][send your heart]).

In order to maintain her favor, her eldest sister forced her to work as a bed-warming maid for the fourth prince. After sleeping with her, she was stabbed with a needle by her eldest sister. In the palace, because of her humble background and lack of background, she was ostracized and made things difficult for her by other concubines, and was even poisoned by Concubine Gao. ​ - The storyline of torturing the male protagonist: The female protagonist was docile and beautiful in the early stage, and she was submissive to the male protagonist, gradually gaining attention, but this favor also brought her more pressure.

However, the female protagonist was just playing tricks on him, making the male protagonist taste the feeling of being ignored and calculated.
