In the end, she is the only favorite. The heroine is not too smart. She is scheming but does not take the initiative to harm others. She always looks beautiful with light makeup and heavy makeup. The hero falls in love at first sight and falls in love with her as time goes by.
The author is very good at writing about the atmosphere of the male and female protagonists. I skipped it before and watched it. The female protagonist was brought back to the east palace by the male protagonist, and then they fought in the palace, and they had the power to get the exclusive favor. C drama is well written.
You can watch the real-life version of the palace fight. I feel that the heroine is very smart and the author's writing is very good. However, I didn't order the later part (because I didn't want to read the real-life ending at that time) and added it to my to-read list.
