I wanted to spit out this description the moment I saw it, especially the line "Only kids make choices," which is utterly idiotic and brainless. Adults don't have the confidence to have everything; most are calculating, thinking "Choose A for safety, choose B for a bargain."
Eldest Prince: I also want Baochai and Daiyu 🤣
Those who support others to become emperors usually meet a bad end.
Was Lin Ruhai truly a confidant of the emperor?
The original text also raises many questions. For example, it's common for emperors to bestow favors upon officials who die in office, such as granting them honorary titles, and their descendants would also receive benefits. However, after Lin Ruhai's death, there was virtually no mention of any special favors bestowed upon him.
Lin Daiyu's epitaph reads, "A jade belt hangs in the forest," but it's hard to guess who in history used a jade belt to hang themselves.

A little slow
The plot is a bit slow, but overall it's quite good.
