Characters Directory

Thank you for JustHappy2Read for giving me the advice to make this character directory. A lot of characters can make readers easily confused and I also read some of the readers' comments about the Concubine. They forgot which Concubine that have which personalities. Ha-ha!

Hope that this character directory will make it easier for readers to remember each character well. At least, if you forget, just open this reference and you will remember the character that you forget.

I will update this along with the appearance of new characters.

Thank you!
