In a Matriarchal World, the Emperor’s Husband Is Still Throwing the Court into Chaos Today

It doesn't feel like a female-dominated novel at all. If you change the male lead's gender and the female characters (1, 2, 3, 4) to males, it becomes an ancient Chinese novel.

First of all, I'm very happy to have received the first review for this book. The author's writing style is excellent, with a strong classical Chinese feel, and she has clearly put a lot of effort into crafting her language. It's evident that the author carefully considered how to handle the issue of a matriarchal society, including the use of different words and phrases, the world-building, and the handling of erotic scenes. However, too much of a good thing can backfire; an overly perfect matriarchal world falls into the trap of a female perspective within a patriarchal society, like trying to portray a woman while writing about a man. (This is just my personal criticism; if you're simply looking for the novelty of a matriarchal setting, this book is an excellent choice.) The author mentions the male protagonist...

Chihaya, hehehe, my Chihaya 🤤🤤🤤 Who doesn't live for the sake of a thousand days? 😡👊 I'm just putting on a brave face 😡👊 I really want to peel away Chihaya's layers one by one 🥵🥵 Look at Chihaya's ❤️ I must be in there, right? 😎😋 There must be one...🤔 I think so...🧐 I think so...😭 Chihaya... How can I live without you? 😭 I can't take it anymore, I punched Chihaya to pieces 👊😭

Actually, I think that writing female-dominated novels is quite difficult to some extent, because I feel they easily fall into two extremes: one is overemphasizing the conflict between the male protagonist's worldview and the female-dominated worldview, and the other is ignoring the conflict between the male protagonist's worldview and the female-dominated worldview. Therefore, if not handled well, female-dominated novels often feel "exaggerated" or "awkward." However, this book is very comfortable to read; it doesn't overemphasize the male protagonist's "male chauvinism," nor is he too assimilated by the female-dominated world. The author has a very good grasp of this balance. If it continues to be written with this quality, I think this book is...

The author's writing is good, but the story framework has problems. Although some word choices have been altered, the story is essentially still a female-oriented novel, just with the genders reversed. The protagonist changes from female to male, and the descriptions are too simplistic, even directly applying female-oriented descriptions of female protagonists to male characters. The characterization lacks depth. It feels like a yuri (lesbian) story; if the genders were switched, it would be a female-oriented novel, but not a particularly good one. I hope the author will enrich the social background and cultural system later on, and not simply copy ancient systems, otherwise it becomes a gender-swap, clickbait title. A change in the gender roles would be more appropriate...

I don't know why, but I always hallucinate the male lead as a woman and the female leads as men.

The further I watched, the more I felt a sense of déjà vu that the male lead was actually a woman, which made me a little uncomfortable 😣, especially when he was being threatened by the prince.

My Murong Miaoli 😭 I started reading this novel just to see Murong Miaoli steal a husband, but in the end she was completely ignored 😢

The decline of the Han dynasty and the chaos of the court inevitably lead to the pursuit of future blessings.

I haven't read female-dominated novels in a long time. The first time I saw this genre, I found it refreshing. After reading a few, I realized it was just another, more blatant harem story, giving the male lead a "forced" reason to have a reverse relationship. Yesterday, I came across this novel and it suddenly caught my eye. The writing style, structure, and plot design are all exceptionally well done, a rarity in the genre. I even checked the author's archives; I'm sure the author has written a lot, not just two unfinished novels. The author's skill in writing novels, especially historical romance, must have been honed through a lot of practice. Even these casually written verses, though quoted, are...
