First of all, this is a harem novel (if you're not into that, don't read it). There are so many typos. The part about the Crown Princess cheating was too sudden. Even if the Crown Princess was drugged, the male lead wasn't drugged either. He seemed to have a clear mind, yet he still had a "heart flutter" (flutter nmn).
It's fantastic, but there aren't enough chapters. Author, keep it up! Update more often, waiting online!
The male and female protagonists in story 130 end up being each other's submissive partners; it's a cuckold story.
The writing is delicate, the plot is coherent, the male lead is intelligent, and it would be great if the female lead had more screen time. Author, keep up the good work and update more often!
It's not a question of whether it's good or bad; it's disgusting. The Crown Princess incident is abrupt and inexplicable, and it's not a crucial foreshadowing. The protagonist wasn't drugged in the incident, and there was no internal struggle or even a thought of refusal.
To be honest, much of the plot is cobbled together from various sources. After reading dozens of chapters, I could see the shadows of several other novels; there was nothing new about it.
I was originally going to give it a good review! The male lead is portrayed as a noble and virtuous man, patient and resourceful, capable of both civil and military affairs, able to resolve internal and external troubles, and competent in his position. He is kind and virtuous to both the court and the people, and has a broad mind. However, his affair with the Crown Princess is a major flaw.
Completely chaotic
The writing feels disjointed; the style noticeably declines after chapter 100, the plot becomes weakly connected to the earlier setup, the story becomes simplistic and illogical, the character development is a mess, and there are frequent gibberish errors. I strongly suspect a change of author.
Although I haven't seen many, the beginning of a good book is very important. The author's protagonist neither reveals himself to be an archaeological genius nor explains the true nature of his cunning. The historical facts he wrote about participating in the imperial examinations are readily available online, let alone anything else.
