Just as his career as a virtuous empress was getting started, the emperor died… When he opened his eyes again, he was in the twenty-first century.

   A time-travel story set in the modern era; it's a good read, a sweet, diary-like romance. The male lead is a bit domineering, which deducts points from the rating. Plot: 7, Writing: 10, Character Design: 7

Shen Chiyi had transmigrated into a book, but as a bit-part character, a useless young lord. The imperial power struggle had nothing to do with him. He kept up the appearance of a sickly, good-for-nothing fool, while secretly traveling to Jiangnan under an assumed identity. By chance, he met a noble young man who had fallen on hard times.

The Lu family was a renowned cultivation clan. Outsiders all said I was the Lu family head's illegitimate son and would one day seize his position. Lu Qinghe was the family head's son, yet he treated me very well. His neighbor, Ye Huaixun, hated me, constantly belittling me and accusing me of having wicked intentions.

   I previously read her other work in the same series, "Young and Unaware of the Demon Lord's Power," and it was very enjoyable to read. I've read about 40% of the author's other work, "Transmigrated as a Widow," and I'm still completely confused about both characters. Personally, I feel this book is a bit too long and too heavy-handed. It's not as good as "The Demon Lord." It features an older, feudal, matriarchal seme, but the plot is incredibly elaborate, with scenes of intimacy and even rubbing against table corners. The writing is somewhat verbose, and the plot doesn't feel very coherent; it's always the smaller part controlling the larger one. However, one thing this one is better than the Demon Lord one is that there are fewer cannon fodder characters and they're not as infuriating. The cannon fodder ex-husband in the Demon Lord one almost drove me crazy with anger. Plot: 7, Writing: 8, Character Design: 7

   This is a story with a more serious tone, and the romance develops naturally. However, the protagonist (the uke) has such a powerful advantage that he seems to have everything he wants, making it somewhat like a male-centric novel with a strong uke. The plot is 60% romance and 40% drama. Plot: 8, Writing: 10, Character Design: 8

   It made me cry 😭 The most regrettable thing was Tang Hui, Nie Dan, and Zhao Chao. I'm the kind of person who really likes family-friendly shows, and every time I see them arguing and fighting because of their differing opinions, it makes me feel sad. The pacing is great, with each part tightly linked to the next. Some of the plot twists were so suspenseful they almost scared me to death! [Angry] Just when I thought they were going to be happy, something else would happen to stand in their way 😭 I won't watch it again; it was so heartbreaking, I cried constantly. It's still a book with a more serious, dramatic style for me. Plot: 10, Writing: 10, Character Design: 10

   A very comfortable read 💪 However, the excessive flashbacks in the early stages sometimes made it a bit boring. As for the romance, since they're twins, why couldn't they have that kind of relationship? It's a shame it's not a harem story. The male lead's character is quite normal—just a love-obsessed guy.

    There was absolutely no sexual tension between the main characters, and while the writing wasn't terrible, it just didn't get to the point. It was incredibly frustrating to read.
