Historical Romance

Do You Know How Deep My Longing Runs?
Red beans adorn the exquisite dice, yet love is the thing I disdain most. Of three thousand weak streams, I'll drink from just one. I'd rather go without than settle for less. Only period romances about one lifetime, one devoted couple.

That Shi Suping, whose family is only a sixth-rank official, keeps talking about merchants while her family is a fifth-rank woman.
That Shi Suping's family is only sixth-rank officials, yet she keeps talking about merchants. Her family is fifth-rank, her father is a Jinshi (successful candidate in the highest imperial examination) and your father is just a Juren (successful candidate in the provincial imperial examination). Where does your confidence come from?
Passing by
I've read "The Most Spring Breeze" and it was pretty good, I wonder how this one is.
From the previous perspective, Xu Er didn't do anything too wrong. He shouldn't have broken off the engagement just for the sake of breaking it off. He should have come up with a more solid reason. Besides, being a thief isn't something to be proud of in modern society. Wouldn't it be better to find a more respectable profession?
Living such a stifling life
Since she's so skilled, why bother with a slow, methodical approach? Under the cover of darkness... Just kill that troublemaking scumbag and be done with it. All that whining and whining is unbearable. In those days, a sip of water could kill, a fall could cause a miscarriage... The death of a concubine or two was as easy as killing a chicken.
The scenes of the male and female leads stealing are hilarious and funny, but the female lead is just too pretentious. Even though the male lead tries so hard to please her, she still throws tantrums and threatens to separate at the drop of a hat, which is really annoying.
I've read both of the author's books, and both had such rushed endings.
Having read up to chapter 370, I can't understand—are all royalty beasts? Allowing a 13-year-old to have sex with someone?!
The initial premise was quite appealing, but after reading over 120 chapters, the plot hasn't made any substantial progress. The writing is detailed, which is good, but regardless of the character's importance, their role, or their relationship, everything is explained in meticulous detail over and over again, which is making me increasingly impatient.
I just saw it, it came from the spring breeze.
Poor points: They had sex at age 13; their intelligence decreased afterward, and their life became like playing house. The foreshadowing in the beginning ended abruptly, making it a bit hard to watch.
