    Thank you for reading and giving my book a good review. This is an original story of mine. I started it mainly to cure my depression from having a job I don't love but feeds me. I'm actually disappointed with the current society for not giving equal opportunity between men and women, although it is my fault for choosing a profession dominated by men 😂😂 (I'm just ranting here...don't mind me).. So I apologize for the slow update (I'm writing impromptu every time I have a break). Since they threw me on the office job and not in the field, I had a lot of time to read and daydream and thus giving life to this book. 😂😂 I'm just thankful for the current technology and online literature society for giving someone like me a platform to express and realize my childhood dream which is to write stories. Being a writer is a gamble and impractical if you aren't rich after all. 😔 Anyway, writing heals my soul and heart so I will continue to write this book. So please bear with me and still keep on reading. 😊😚💖💖

    I'll be honest, I simply skimmed over the chapters. Sorry about that but I did like the few contents that my eyes picked up. The whole reason that I am here is because of the synopsis. It captivated me and I've been voting this ever since. I mean holy fudge! You go girl! That's right! There are times when love is not enough and we need to know the moment where we finally choose our self. I'm just waiting for the chapters to accumulate to start binge read this. P.S. I hope the emperor cried a river full of tears.

    I also discovered this today, I was randomly clicking novels to read the synopsis and this one got me intrigued. Best thing I ever did. Lol Xulian is pretty innocent, but would probably willingly scam people for more money after treating them. 😂 I laughed when she realized that she saved the Emperor and could have scammed him four times more than the actual amount for her treatment. Lol Feng Emperor, he's really cold and cunning. What a better way to smack your scheming bros in the face by bringing an Empress with a strong background. Her Lin Mercenary Clan is pretty cool, feared for being one of the best clans at martial arts and a founding pillar of the Empire. I hope I'm not spoiling anything, but hope you guys give this novel a try~

    *DISCLAIMER this review is a part 1 cuz i have so much to say (don’t mind me) and also this will probably have the most amount of spoilers you’ll ever read in your life 😊 (innocently smiles). this review will have have a lot of my guesses on the story (my ranting) and may not be your ideal review, because it’s kind of not even a review and just me ranting about my predictions, if so then feel free to read a different one 😊 i love how the story is going so far, and i love the storyline and the love that’s slowly brewing and showing itself now (chapter 67). it has a great storyline so far and there’s so many things that i want to see develop. in the description, it says that the FJYi is cold and a workaholic but so far i don’t see that all? even if i try to imagine his current self (i’ve read up to chapter 67 as of now) in LX’s point of view, he still seems like neither of those. he is very good at ruling and is very focused on his work, but i wouldn’t say that he’s displaying any compulsive behaviour like a workaholic would. as for him being ‘cold’, he isn’t exactly warm to her, but he isn’t cold in any way as far as i see 😕. i can see his love for her and that it’s continuing to grow. he doesn’t dote on her openly so as far as she sees (probably), he is maintaining his business-like relationship with her very firmly. in her eyes he feels nothing towards her (probably once again). i can also see that she’s starting to show signs of love towards him too. she isn’t very in love with him now, but that will probably develop later on. but all this really is due to their lack of communication skills towards the other 🤦🏻‍♀️. but all of this could later change in the story. i’m guessing that he could possibly later realise his feeling towards her and she may also realise too 🤔. if so, she may try to suppress her feelings thinking he has no feelings for her because the way he doesn’t too openly express his emotions, and she’ll probably keep telling herself that she should keep their relationship a business one. he may also feel the same way because she is suppressing her feelings, eventually making him fall deep in his work as to relieve his sadness, help suppress his feelings and use it as a means of distraction to escape from reality (aka his feelings and her existence in general). but i think the FJYun (fifth prince) will begin to meddle seeing the decline in their relationship and the way his brother suppressing his feeling towards LX, in other words his beloved. by the time this happens i’m guessing that he’s already taken over the second prince’ fraction and rep,aced his brother because FJYu (second prince) is already declining in power and so is LG (Li Gaoya, i think her name was or just Imperial Noble Concubine Li). fifth prince obviously is love struck for LX and would do anything to have her and start to scheme against FJYi to obtain the throne and of course LX, and possibly even her heart 😏. i’m so excited to see him fight with FJYi for LX who’d probably be confused on what to do. Pick her beloved who she believes to be cold hearted, a workaholic and extremely neglecting towards her (and also has no feeling for her) or the one who she thought to be an enemy but actually a prince that’s loves and tries to chase after her wholeheartedly but is also her husband’s enemy? this might possibly be when her feeling’s for FJYi begin to fail him and she may begin to want to leave everything behind and fake her death! but also maybe not 🤷🏻‍♀️.

    I absolutely adore this story. The FL is a talented physician and is an expert in poison. She's also a martial artist, a real beauty with brains and brawn. The pace of the story is great, with proper intro to her family, her meeting with the emperor and her subsequent relationships in the palace. If you like gutsy heroines, this book is for you.

    I am really grateful for your support to my novel. And I apologize that I cannot give mass release since I didn't stock up the chapters first before publishing. I do impromptu writing per day which is not advantageous for me since I have other jobs. So I'll be on hiatus for a while a stock some chapters first. I don't want to give you a low quality story just so I can publish every day. Some may get upset about this but I can only apologize 😓😓😅😅 Also I want to go back to reading for inspiration. I am having terrible writer's block. I want to write a good transition of the current story flow towards the main plot. And my current state of mind isn't helping. Again I'm sorry 😭😭😭 I shall return! 😤😤💪💪👋🏿👋🏿

    I love how black-bellied the FL is. I'm quite disappointed with the ML since I thought he doesn't have a harem in the palace but it's a good thing that he doesn't pay attention to those women and focuses only to FL. Can't wait for the part where the FL would be "dead" and the events after that.

    There a lots of spoilers in this review!!! I usually read the novels due to the entertainment blurbs (silly sentence 🤷‍♀️. Who not !?) So the thing is that after reading to the current status (ch 101) I really HOPE that the author/you would PLEASE change your mind and don’t separate them (let the FL die and reborn )...😣😭😭 —————- At first I thought that the novel would start at the point where the FL is already reborn and died without care and love of her husband ,quote “Her husband is cold, emotionless and workaholic.” ... but this wasn’t so. Till now the ML is NOTHING like this description. He is caring , doting and show emotions to the FL. (He even confessed his love to her 💕) Second this blurb part just k*lled me ... “Being naïve and pure, she thought he was in love with her. [...] She lived in luxury but without love. The empress position is just a payment. It broke her.” 1. naive -> THIS WOULD BE THE MOST UNSUITED WORD to describe the female Lead. The FL is in my opinion always a step further than her enemies “entertainment” 😂 2. She THOUGHT he was in love with her... —> Girl ..forgot the confession 🙄.. I can’t even imagine that this SMART FL would fall in someone’s scheme😒 3. She lived in luxury but without love... 1. Her parents ARE already extremely wealthy 2. She has so many people who dots on her 3. Forget the CONFESSION again!!? 4. a payment—> she clearly enjoys it to be the empress and SHE is the one who doesn’t care about LOVE 5. It broke her... —> SPEECHLESS —> just SPEECHLESS In the end I want to declare that even I criticised the novel harsh I really LOVE this novel because of the amazing writing ability ,the fluent story development and the brilliant story design. 😊👏👏 By writing this review I hope you could really change the blurb to improve the entire story please 🙇‍♀️

    I guess I am writing the 100th review for a novel for the first time... I just found this novel and read it completely in one go... Reason???? I really really really liked the story. Both the main characters as well as the side characters accompanying them are pretty cute. The female protagonist(Empress) is strong, intelligent and independent. The male lead(Emperor) is already in love with her but he is seemingly afraid of accepting his feelings for her. Well I am supporting you author and waiting for more chapters....😊😊

    As I read the reviews and comments I realized that the synopsis I wrote did its job pretty well (ノ^o^)ノ I wrote it like a trailer form unlike other novels who used it like a prologue. It means it is the overall plot. For those who are getting impatient about the details I wrote in the synopsis, (~‾▿‾)~ relax...it is the turning point of the story so it would take time (⌒.−)=★ So let's enjoy the flow because I would still like to present the world i built in my mind for months. Thank you for the good feedback (*^3^)/~☆

    The first few chapters are bad developed, still now I get somehow confused bc the author keeps adding names without introducing it. I can understand since it is her/his first novel. What interested me was that MC and ML are a little different from other redundant C novels. That is what kept me going. Leaving aside that some episodes are seen in other novels, it was a good read thanks to the minimal difference in character development and situations. It made me laugh here and there but it wasn’t as remarkable as I’d hoped. Still it has yet to finish so I will continue to give my review as the story progresses and, hopefully, reach the end💗
