I like stories about fighting for power within a household, and I also like palace-intrigue stories. I have to say, Qidian's historical romances are generally quite good. I also enjoy romance and supernatural powers. I'm not as keen on ghost stories because I'm a scaredy-cat, but when I find a good one, I can't help taking a look. This list isn't just for female-oriented fiction. I'll also recommend books from the main site if they're good. The list is brand new, so please show it some love!

Women’s Fiction So Good You Can’t Put It Down
I registered on Qidian in 2005 and became a high-level VIP member in 2008. That's ten years as a VIP, not counting the three years before that. I started out reading the main site, and there's no need to mention big names like San Shao and Fanqie. I'd read just about every popular book from back then. Later, when Qidian launched its women's fiction section, I gradually started reading more of that. Early on, very few women's fiction books could compete with the main site's appeal. Then I realize

Favorites From Kindle to Qidian
For the past couple of years, I’ve mostly been reading historical romance. The older I get, the harder it is to accept how novelists understand and portray real life. Good historical romances are easier to find and enjoy than contemporary romances, after all, their settings are unfamiliar to me.

Some stories are wonderful, but I never go back to read them, because the sadness they left me with far outweighs the warmth. Some wonderful stories are ones I return to again and again, because the more I revisit them, the warmer they make me feel. Zhizhi’s stories have just that kind

From time to time, I revisit Zhizhi's The Concubine, and I have read it on several accounts from Qidian. I have always thought that The Concubine is a classic among all classics about concubines. There is mother's love, father's love, husband and wife's emotional life, and there is no shortage of small scheming struggles. More importantly, Zhizhi, this book, teaches people a lot about educating children, getting along with husbands and wives, getting along with fathers and children, getting along with mothers and daughters, getting along with brothers and sisters, and even many second-married people nowadays can learn from the ways of getting along with stepmothers and daughters. The full text is like a painting, open it slowly and appreciate it, the more you read, the better it becomes! Compared with those whose mothers died, their grandparents and their fathers did not love their stepmothers and abused them, I think the concubines written by Zhizhi are normal. In fact, although the real big families in ancient times had rules, they paid great attention to nurturing their descendants. They did not distinguish between concubines. The eldest son inherited the family head.
The concubine has always been Bai Yueguang in her heart and does not accept refutation. I like Eleven Niang's intelligence, forbearance, tolerance and generosity, and unparalleled wit. I like Mr. Hou's seriousness and responsibility, his majesty and dominance, and his tenderness. The only imperfection should be that after Mr. Hou had Eleven Niang, he slept with Qiao and had a child. The portrayal of the old lady is also great. After the child disappeared, Eleven Niang blamed the Marquis, and later served tea to the old lady. The old lady did not drink it, put it aside, but ate other snacks... The details are amazing. The concubine has always been Bai Yueguang in her heart and does not accept refutation.
Jin Heart Like Jade is now airing. I have watched eight episodes and I am really sad. I am so sad that I am no longer in the mood to speculate in stocks, I am no longer in the mood to play games, and I am no longer in the mood to attend classes... Today I can only find fans on various platforms to hug together and complain about this fanfic together. Yes, it can no longer be considered a magic modification, it can barely be called a fanfic, because the character settings are all occ. What makes me even more sad is that it turns out that the title of the book "Strategy of Concubines" has a little tail behind it - (original work of Jin Xin Si Jade). I just want to ask, where is the original work? Is it because the protagonists are also named Eleven Niang and Xu Lingyi, so it's the original work?
After reading it for the second time without reading, I still feel that the heroine's temperament really has nothing that a modern person should have, and she is completely an ancient person. This time-traveling identity played a role in the first part of the article, but she really has a low sense of existence. I have never traveled through time and don't know whether it is real or not. I just feel like there is a lump in my throat. As expected, I prefer to read lightweight novels when I'm under a lot of pressure. I'd better read more heavy ones slowly.
After watching the first episode of "Jade Heart" on the 26th
The content is too long, read with caution February 26, 2021 is a special day, so I post to commemorate it I struggled to finish watching the first episode of Jin Xin Jade. For a fan of this book, there are only two words in my heart at this moment-disappointment First of all, I understand that TV dramas and novels are different subjects, so they need to be adapted to make the story fuller, so I accepted the adaptation of the novel for broadcast. Just like Zhifu, which was filmed by Noon Sunshine, I like it very much. Both the novel and the TV series of Zhifu have completed the second episode However, the adaptation of the drama "Jade Hearts" is so adaptable that I can't face it. I'm afraid that continuing to watch it will increase my negative emotions and affect me to do the third episode 😂 Of course I don't blame the author. I understand that in the script adaptation, even if the original author participates in the script adaptation, there is really very little he can do, especially the author who has just entered this circle and has no right to speak. Therefore, this post is just a small personal opinion of a book fan about the adapted film and television drama. There are many adaptations that cannot be described in detail. Let me just talk about a few things that I can't accept the most 1. The original work is a novel about otaku fighting. In my opinion, it is a work that has the shadow of Dream of Red Mansions. Therefore, anyone who has read the article knows that the full text is really antique, and it contains many secular concepts and social customs... In short, it is rigorous (at least I think it is comparable to most ancient romance novels on the market). For those who are strict, such as {"TopicId":"582738104645910528","TopicName":"Jade Heart"}, women from aristocratic families do not leave the house without leaving the door, unmarried men and women cannot meet at will, whether it is eleven mothers, other concubine children in the article are never called their biological mothers, but aunts, etc. There are many that I won't go into details one by one, but the TV series. . . Sigh 2. Not to mention that the TV series may be in order to cater to the emotional entanglements in the current film and television dramas, a character similar to the second male suddenly appears (it seems to be the second male, many people felt the same in the first episode of the barrage), and suddenly another second mother (in the first episode, the second mother said that the eldest wife has engaged him, and the man is a classmate of the eldest brother's Imperial College, must be Mr. Qian), and the fifth mother in the drama >The personality is completely different from the one in the novel. She is simply a tougher, more outgoing Shi Niang (Shi Niang in the novel may or may not be more lovable, but the Wu Niang actor in the TV series is almost the same as those brainless and vicious female protagonists. I can only see the whites of his eyes when he talks)... And Holly doesn't have many scenes in the first episode, but his character is just gentle from the novel? (I can't find the adjective, fans of the original work understand) and has become a more cheerful character than Bin Ju... I don't understand, it is also an adaptation, it is also an adaptation of a house-fighting novel, and it is an adaptation of a novel in the same style. How can Sunshine at Noon be filmed so well , whether it is the restoration of the characters, the closeness of the plot as close as possible, and the rigor of the adaptation are all excellent, why was it filmed . . Photographed like that. . . . I really feel that the novel is in vain. I can only say that I feel sorry for Zhizhi, because I believe no one will love this book more than Zhizhi... The above is only my personal opinion, and I would like to apologize again for posting this long paragraph similar to a movie review here. I'm very sorry Actually, I struggled for a long time and decided to post here because I know there are so many people in this world, and only fans of the original novel, you, can feel the same way as me...
Whenever I feel particularly tired, or encounter some problems, difficulties, or setbacks, etc., I like to read this long-ago novel called The Concubine's Guide! It tells the story of Eleven Niang. In her natal family, she was the child of a concubine with a powerful mistress. Her own mother was a slave, so life was not easy! It was so easy for me to get married, and I was remarrying for an uncle. Among the sisters-in-law in this family were a young widowed sister-in-law who contributed a lot to the family and was very defensive, with an aloof temperament, a sister-in-law who came from a noble family and a arrogant sister-in-law, and a sister-in-law who was full of schemes and flattery! There are many kinds of concubines in your house, including the concubine who gave birth to the eldest son, the concubine who is young and beautiful and from a famous family, the concubine of a wealthy businessman, and a bunch of children born to your husband, concubines and ex-wife [face covering] In this case, the eleventh mother is alive and well, and you will feel that your life is so beautiful! Suddenly the sun shines brightly, and all the problems become minor problems! What a great book, I basically rely on it to get by
After watching the drama for 10 minutes, I reluctantly gave up. Not even Chung Han-liang's appearance could stop me from abandoning the drama. Mom 11, the most well-behaved time travel girl, is afraid of making the wrong move. Why did she create so many love rivals for Xu Lingyi in the beginning? What kind of brain does the screenwriter have?
Check-in famous scenes in online novels - The Concubine's Guide
Birds are chirping, distant mountains are blooming, and Lin Fei is wandering alone. I smell the willow trees breaking in the clear mist, and I climb up the stairs to see you coming. I got my first mobile phone in the summer after the college entrance examination. It was rare enough (I can't live without it now), and I kept reading various novels, such as Dou Po, Douluo, Zhu Xian, Seven Realms, Covering the Sky, Domination of Hollywood, Qing Chuan Daily, Mugung Blossoms in the West Moon, and Three Lives Three Worlds. Some of them were no longer interested after reading them once, and some of them were read over and over again until they got tired of them. The Concubine's Guide naturally belongs to the latter. Eleven Niang is independent, smart, calm, gentle and kind. Her fairy-like beauty is not so conspicuous in front of these advantages. As the old saying goes, if you don't belong to the same family, you don't belong to the same family. Everyone in the Houfu (excluding the Third Madam, Aunt Yi and Aunt Qin) is very good in conduct. Especially the children, Brother Yu, Sister Zhen, Brother Zhun and Brother Jie are all good children, and so is Brother Jin (just a bit naughty). Although the family has different temperaments, they can all understand each other and live in harmony. Zhizhi uses his rich historical knowledge to describe a real and detailed ancient back house and a warm and affectionate Xu family for us readers. Under Zhizhi's brushstrokes, the calm old lady, the second lady who is cold on the outside and hot on the inside, the kind and cowardly third master, the steady and reliable Xu Lingyi, the noisy and loving county principal and his wife, etc., Vividly appear on the page. Although I have read it for a long time, whenever I mention this book, the characters are still deeply engraved in my mind and I can blurt it out. I also like Jiuchongzi, Jinlingchun, and Munanzhi that Zhizhi later wrote, but the one I read the most is The Concubine's Guide. Brothers' rift (the incident of the third master and his wife giving porridge), the turmoil in the court (the District family wants to compete for the crown prince's position), the fight in the back house (the greedy Aunt Qin wants her son to become the prince), the upbringing of children (the career paths of Brother Yu and Brother Zhun, the marriage partner of Sister Zhen, and the overbearing temper of Brother Jin), these problems came like waves one by one, but they were successfully resolved by the cooperation of Shi Yiniang and Xu Lingyi, and they passed through safely. I truly envy the heroine's wisdom and tenacity, and even more admire Zhizhi's life experience and talent. The author believes that The Concubine's Strategy can definitely be called a classic that must not be missed in female videos!
Although Zhida had been vaccinated before and talked about the plot changes, I still didn't expect that this would be another story with the name of Eleven Niang and Xu Si. I gave up decisively when I saw the original Niang who was dressed in fancy clothes and had no sick appearance. Now I just want to shout something to the editor from a distance. If you are so capable, why don't you write it yourself?
For readers who say that the heroine of this article looks like an ancient woman and doesn't want to have sex with a time-traveling girl, you may have to take a serious look. I watched it 5 times. Eleven Niang fell in love with Xu at first, but she denied it in her heart. It took a long time to accept it. This is because she is a modern soul and polygamy is not acceptable to her in her heart, but she has to show off her trappings as a time-traveling woman in the big context. Her goal has always been to survive. Her will to survive outweighs her emotions, and she is more like completing a boss mission in the workplace. Her emotions in the book are gentle and slow, which means that the heroine's mind changes and she accepts very slow care. The heroine has always had more sympathy for the concubine than jealousy. This is also because of the modern soul, because she knows that this is the tragedy of the times and not the fault of one or two people. As for the monogamous thinking of time-traveling women that is rampant all over the Internet, I personally think that it is just a casual look and cannot withstand scrutiny. In ancient times, this kind of thinking would have been dismissed. It was a sin of jealousy. The incompatible idea may look like the halo of the heroine, but in fact it cannot be integrated with the entire style of the article. It is just following the trend. It's like buying a modern sofa and an ancient table for decoration, but they don't match... But the people who read the article have different ages and experiences. The above is my superficial understanding, just listen to it.
