The story begins with a playful rivalry between a concubine and the emperor, which eventually leads the emperor to fall in love, thus beginning a very sweet romance. In the end, the concubine successfully ascends to the position of empress, becoming the mother of the nation.
It's pretty frustrating. The story started off quite novel, and the female lead's mind-reading ability was impressive and interesting. But from chapter 70 onwards, it felt like a completely different author. The superpowers disappeared, there were numerous typos, and then it abruptly jumped to the ending—it felt incredibly rushed and abruptly ended. The female supporting character was still there!
Why is the male lead such a jerk, with so many women in his harem, and the ending so ambiguous?
The article is okay, but there are too many typos, and it's extremely difficult to make sense. I'll reluctantly give it a mediocre rating.
It feels like the writing style changed after chapter 80-something. The female lead is so brainless; she can't even be cute anymore, and the emperor seems clueless when handling things. Her superpowers also suddenly disappeared, and there's much less internal dialogue. It's not as good as the beginning. I'm so disappointed.
The ending was a bit rushed.
I gritted my teeth and read over 200 chapters, but I really couldn't continue. The male lead was such a jerk, I really didn't like him. Towards the end, it felt like I'd transmigrated into a novel. The female lead was okay for the first dozen or so chapters, but later she seemed too love-struck. I skipped straight to the ending, and it was truly disappointing, a bit of a rushed ending.
The plot is inconsistent; it feels like I've been transported into another novel.
In the first few chapters, she could read minds, but suddenly she lost that ability? She's been constantly influenced by the Emperor and that concubine.
Not good-looking
