This world is overrun by monsters, and it's the perfect place for heroes and heroines to make their legends. Too bad you're not the pure, noble heroine or the pampered, highborn villainess.

   It feels very real. The male and female protagonists do not have any golden fingers. They will be afraid and confused, but they will stick to their inner beliefs and their bottom line. After going through countless hardships, they can still face the suffering with an innocent heart. The characters are well developed and the plot of Machiavellian plot is pretty good. Moreover, the bad guys in the novel are not hopelessly bad. They still stick to the tenderness in their hearts. They were just born at the wrong time. They are pitiful people.

   I can read the eunuch story because the author describes it very well. The author has deep thoughts, the female protagonist is very wise, and the male protagonist has a huge mind for the world. He is a super nice person. He is the type who does good deeds without caring about the future. He has low self-esteem. The emotional line is very sweet, but I don't like the male's too humble relationship.

   It's very interesting. The author's plot is super good and the plot is great. The relationship between the male and female protagonists may not be so well written, but it does not affect the overall viewing experience. The female protagonist is particularly well designed, she has high martial arts skills but also a good brain, is sensible, and can come and go with ease. The male protagonist is also very good, and the character creation is very successful. The group portraits are well written, and the supporting characters can also leave an impression on people.

    The early plot is solid, and the emotions are very delicate and interesting. The middle plot is given to NPCs, who are very boring after they get together, and the main plot is not interesting. The later plot is top-notch, and the main plot is the same as a cool novel. It is quite enjoyable to watch. Some of the emotional lines are too old, and some conflicts feel unnecessary.

    Beautiful, well written story. It has both power and love. The plot line and the emotional line are well balanced. The story is rich and complete. The group portraits are also well written. It can be seen that the author is very good at shaping characters. The characters of the male and female protagonists are very full, and the female protagonist has shortcomings, but these shortcomings make her more vivid. The article describes the male and female protagonists equally, and there is no situation where it seems that the female protagonist makes meritorious deeds after getting married, but in fact she relies entirely on the male protagonist. All in all, it's very interesting to watch. If you like watching Machiavellian plots, don't miss it.

The author's writing is particularly good, and the descriptions of the fights are particularly graphic, and you can fully feel the charm of the characters from the text. But when it comes to the handling of the heroine's personal emotions, the description is very ink. The heroine has become both virginal and reckless.

It made me uncomfortable to death, but I really want to know the outcome of the story and have to continue reading.

The male and female protagonists have feelings for each other but are suspicious of each other.

It feels like it has become a machine for outputting the author's values, and it is a bit false and empty in the context of ancient Chinese characters. The back is a little rounder. The author's idea is good, but the expression is poor. The heroine's emotional line could have been written more brilliantly, but it's a pity. The emotional line of the second sister is the best written and feels like it is the author's comfort zone. The emotional line of the eldest sister is not interesting at all.

The heroine who looks cold but is actually deeply involved in it and the hero who competes and fights in the relationship. The heroine who will not delay the great cause of the family and the country because of feelings and the hero who is willing to use his own life to seek a future for the heroine are really a perfect match.
