Everyone is evil! The heroine is decisive in killing and eradicating dissidents! The author writes with fine characters, slow pace, details everywhere, and the group portraits are very exciting [like] [like]. In the opening chapter, the heroine does not have a God's perspective, and she and other characters complete the clues like a jigsaw puzzle. She kills the six princesses one by one, and climbs up one case after another, conquering her confidants and stealing power. Every little person has his or her own thoughts. The palace maids, eunuchs, adults and villains are all seeking profit. The heroine survives in this gap and plays with people's hearts. In the past, after several years of hard work in the palace, she experienced a lot of hardships, but she was not knocked down, did not feel sorry for herself, and did not accept her fate. Instead, she grew and learned in the face of adversity, using every failure as a lesson, and she became more courageous as she fought! I especially admire Li Ruyue, who strategizes and wins people's hearts. She seems to have suppressed all her emotions to the extreme. Her father is partial and her mother is hostile. She lives alone in this world. Love, family and friendship are dull, and only the righteousness of monarch and minister is left to protect her to the top. The main plot of the whole story is about the struggle for imperial power and the Song family. The Song family is really an unbeatable little power, and there are bosses one after another. Although the old woman is ruthless, crazy and evil, I still admire her ability to, in such an era, not succumb to fate and try to win by any means necessary. She didn't like the author's arrangement because she wanted to be satisfied with her husband. I like that the villains in the author's novels are not cleansed and will never become bad. Since the heroine wants to be an emperor as a woman, she must clear all obstacles. She has lost a lot, but also gained a lot. She killed some people along the way, and I dare not say that those people were not innocent, because everything has a price, and it is difficult to distinguish between right and wrong. What makes me most embarrassed is the third prince. I always expected the dark brother in the introduction to join forces with the heroine, but I didn't expect that the younger brother is also a selfish person. How I wish he could be well-behaved, but unfortunately he has his own ideas. The heroine also lost the brother who blinked and longed for the heroine's care, and the brother who brought out his own snacks. They are destined to be enemies... Either now or in the future... Lord Song Xian was abandoned and died. This is the only part where I cried in the whole text. Lord Song, he was devoted to Chicheng, was used, and was willing to do so. The heroine had no choice but to make the choice. The moment the reader truly felt the heartache of being unable to do anything to deal with the overall situation. Although the author faked his death in the extra chapter, in my case he really died and was not resurrected. That is just another possibility or hope that the author gives readers. People will not always be able to leave out everything, and there will always be times when people are powerless. It was a great pleasure to follow this novel. The author depicts the characters carefully, the context of the whole text is clear, and the background of the characters is clearly explained. I read it in one go, and because I was used to the author's slow-paced narration, I felt that the pace had accelerated when I read 90% of the book. The author was also speeding up the character's direction, which made me a little uncomfortable. The sudden ending, the main line was perfect, but the endings of other characters have not yet been explained, which was a bit rushed. But the ending has been decided, and the rest, it seems, is not that important. Because I really liked it, I thought about it carefully and wrote down what I was thinking at this time.

Very nice!! The protagonist is not just for the sake of having fun. He is suddenly transported to ancient times, and everything does not go as planned. Ancient civilians really lived cautiously, rather than rushing around, making soap, glass, etc. Each supporting character, including the male protagonist, has his own selfishness. Everyone has desires and selfishness, instead of falling in love at first sight and falling in love. Alas, I am poor in words and I am not very good at praising. The author does write well!! Recommend!

It is a refreshing piece of period writing. There is no going to the countryside, no black market, and no glamor in the author's description. It was a little surprise at first glance, and made me laugh even more. The writing style is humorous and humorous, and the heroine is smart. "Shen", very self-aware, the most "respectable" in doing things, a weak and kind-hearted little white flower on the surface, but a backhanded criminal named Gaga, (there is also a family of wolf killers, so I won't spoil it [face covering]) It is really an unforgettable "Iron Hand Tang". It's a pity that this article is too "refined", but it's a pity that the author only has this article [crying].

The first book is not about personal heroism. The heroine uses her official seal to smash the savior myth and tell you what people's war is. It feels super refreshing to watch. It not only has a strong sense of family and country feelings, but also has the point of incorporating various protagonists; there is no love brain, focusing on the career line; the group portraits are well described, and each character has distinctive characteristics. The author of the second book is very good at writing, including various human relationships in the village, various intrigues among the educated youth, and the psychological journey of the foreign workers, as well as family, love, and friendship lines. The heroine's IQ is online, and the relationship with the heroine of the original book is handled properly. There is no female rivalry plot, which makes people feel comfortable to read.
