What a gem 💜 I might be alone here but this feels like a very toned down, small scale version of QJJ, with more humor, a lot less characters, much smaller geography, and more light-hearted (but with substance!) and sweet. Lots of scheming and the couple is kind of similar. Watching Lin Qingyu fall in love little by little was so sweet. 

MC: Smart, aloof, cold, cunning, loyal, manipulative, holds grudges 
ML: Charismatic, clever, loyal, kind, “lazy” in everything but his pursuing of MC, shameless yet embarrassed, green flag when it comes to consent ✅

** Despite all the political scheming with the court, their relationship is nothing but complete honesty and bluntness with the ML confessing even when he is so embarrassed 🤣 

✔️Transmigration (but not from the POV of the person who TM)
✔️Historical
✔️Political/ court intrigue
✔️Slow burn
✔️Pining
✔️Power couple
✔️Together in multiple lifetimes

The story ends at chapter 119 with 5 extras in the original historical setting and 25 extras set a modern setting (I only read the historical extras)  

The humor is this book was everything
😂 Eye candy medicine 
😂 Wilting 
😂 I am a man! 

One **small** gripe: referring to Lin Qingyu using the terms wife, DIL, SIL, Madame, and  Empress in a derogatory way
