In the sixth year of Hanyu, the Emperor traveled south of the Yangtze. No one expected him to bring a new girl into the palace. Shen Shiyuan hadn’t expected it either. She had only been a Yangzhou courtesan, sent to the prefect of Wuzhou as a favor. She had been the prefect’s concubine for ju 54.1kFavorites67.8kClicks/ch96.5kGifts

   This is probably the worst book in this author's palace intrigue series. I couldn't finish after chapter 30; it's completely Mary Sue-ish, and I personally don't like this type of female lead. She's definitely a bit dim-witted.

   The characters all seemed rather eccentric. Perhaps it was the emperor, the central figure in the palace intrigue, who was going insane, and the concubines below him were unconsciously affected. Actually, there was a sense of mental oppression at the beginning, but it became somewhat disheartening towards the end. Also, the ending of the serialized version I was following was changed, which startled me a few times.

   After reading a few chapters, I felt the vocabulary was a bit outdated, but then I realized it was written in 2014, so it's okay. The plot is still good; it's just that some of the early vocabulary sounds a bit cheesy now.

    It should be considered a domestic power struggle story, and it's one of the author's earlier works.

Eat when there's food, drink when there's drink, and fight when there's fighting. If you like stories where the heroine can't help falling in love with the emperor or a prince, don't get your hopes up. The protagonist is a bit of a blockhead. P.S.

    It's an older story, but it's really good. It's a classic palace intrigue story. The female lead is intelligent and proactive. Her relationship with the emperor isn't exactly true love, but it definitely develops eventually. The supporting characters are also well-developed.

    This is supposed to be a series of ancient mini-worlds, but none of them are serious palace intrigue stories. The female lead focuses more on the imperial court than the harem, and prefers to hold power in her own hands rather than argue with the male lead. I really like this kind of female lead.

    This is probably one of the author's earlier palace intrigue novels. The writing style is still a bit immature, but it's still okay. I like the female lead's personality, and the supporting female character is also quite well-written; I still remember her a long time after reading it. However, the rebirth epilogue was really stupid, so I'm deducting one star.

    The female lead has been with the male lead since he was the crown prince. I don't recall any fighting between them. It's more of a slice-of-life story. The male and female leads have feelings for each other, whether in their past or present lives. It's pretty good. It's the kind of book that's easy to read in one sitting, but not one you'd read many times.

    This book is by the same author as the one mentioned above, "The Imperial Concubine," but I felt it was better than the previous one.

    It's a good read, more of a political drama than a palace intrigue story. The female lead has amazing political acumen, and her character development is very clear. When faced with the time-traveling woman's disdain, her words, "Let me become your student," truly resonated with me. At that moment, I clearly felt that Xiao Hong was no longer the same servile girl she once was; her thinking and perspective were completely different. The old emperor is indeed an old emperor, but I accepted it well. The interactions between the two were quite amusing. The old emperor was wholeheartedly supporting the female lead to ensure a peaceful death, and she truly held on. It's a very worthwhile read, and I highly recommend it.

    This is a very slice-of-life story, depicting ordinary life and ordinary promotions. Compared to other transmigrators who obsess over cement, explosives, and penicillin inventions, the female protagonist in this book is just an ordinary person, cooking some delicious food and inventing simple things she's familiar with and can easily make, like loose-leaf paper. She doesn't meddle in major national affairs on her own, but rather guides the emperor and her son to lead the country to change, letting specialists handle specific tasks—a satisfying approach.

It's by the same author as her previous two books. She's really good at writing this kind of plot. This one is definitely better than her previous two books and shows improvement.

    It's very slice-of-life, and the female lead is the type I admire and respect. She has strong self-discipline, practicing calligraphy, painting, embroidery, and learning musical instruments every day. In ancient times, where entertainment was scarce, she filled her life with learning, preventing herself from being assimilated by her environment. However, I didn't really like the tone of this book. How to put it? It's precisely because of the female lead's strong self-discipline that I felt she was cut off from the world around her. She, the emperor, the other concubines, and even her own children, lived in a different world. Her emotions were detached; she always just observed others and never interfered in their lives because of feelings. So, I must say I admire this kind of female lead, but as a novel, it was really a bit difficult to read (╥╥).

If that's a concern, this book isn't for you.
