πI recommend the following novels to you. They are all palace novels with different levels of torture. The female protagonists are all beautiful and smart: 1. "Secret Records of Yan Yun": A female dynasty novel. The female protagonist is a somewhat mentally twisted but also somewhat weak woman. The palace is scheming and torturing. It may be a 1v1. 2. "Silly Concubine: The Evil King Begging to Let Go": Ancient romance-palace house fighting novel, the female protagonist was abandoned by a cheap man, and then saved by a scheming male protagonist. There were many struggles in the palace. 3. "Noble She's Always Disobedient": An ancient romance novel. The female protagonist transmigrated into a noble who was hated by the emperor. Later on, the palace fight began. The couple was sweet. I hope you like this fairy's recommendation. Muah ~π
