Beautiful Heroines in Historical Romance
Books I've read and thought were worth sharing. The authors are good writers, too.
A Gentle Fragrance of Books
A slow-paced read, with nuanced emotions, beautiful writing, and an old-world charm. The story takes its time, but the characters’ hearts are restless. A little something to spice up an ordinary life.
How Do You Even Play This Thing?
If you have similar tastes, please recommend something. No angst, and the protagonists must be clear-headed. Ensemble casts are fine too. No love-struck airheads, innocent wallflowers, or domineering CEOs

Although the ending is good, I still burst into tears watching it... Especially since the death of my third brother, I was very sad and helpless.
The back was so collapsed that I couldn't even see it, and it was a bloody mess.
The front is really good! Yuwen Hongce is my favorite male protagonist.
I think it is very unreasonable for the emperor to be suspicious of Twelve. Because he is deaf, anyone can become emperor, even the seventh child, but not the twelve. The emperor is not allowed to have mutilated limbs.
Lost and found again, gained and lost again, the heroine is the most tragic in these novel series. She could understand how she treated Twelve, but sometimes it was just too difficult to get over. When her brother was around, she felt at peace. She had the confidence to marry Twelve, but now that her brother is gone, her anger is gone. She could only escape. In fact, it is right to separate. Only when we are separated can we wake up and cherish it again.
The third brother is really upset. In the end, he thought Hailan would be with the thirteenth master hahaha! Thirteenth Master is quite cute too! Originally, the character in "Gong Lue" liked Dong Qi very much, but the emperor's heart was unpredictable, and in the end, he gave up on him.
Happy New Year. The three brothers of the Wen family are so miserable. They are the most unfair in this article.
I originally thought that the male and female protagonists of this book were both rare good people among palace beauties, and they finally had pure true love... As mentioned above, the female protagonist really couldn't figure it out. Maybe the author didn't want to write a protagonist with no moral flaws, but Dingyi's subsequent commotion made me feel that she was really sorry for Hongce's feelings for her. This is no longer interesting. No one is perfect, but feelings cannot have flaws
I read the second half with tears in my eyes. I've been reading fantasy romances for too long, and it's hard to tolerate the imperfections in ancient romances. Everything I looked at was not perfect, and I was unhappy everywhere. A pair of fateful mandarin ducks are finally together. But this is not perfect, and that is not perfect either. A bunch of miserable children make people cry.
It looked good before, but it started to look bad after Ru Lian was arrested.
