Description
*The Four Great Female Constables – Book 4/4 To work as a constable, it was inevitable for enemies to take revenge, so Shangguan Yan never gave others the opportunity to seek revenge. “Miss looks a bit familiar.” The cold and handsome Gongzi stared at her. “I never venture out the main door nor cross over the threshold of the side door. Gongzi must be mistaken.” She replied shyly. When both of them met again the second time, the cold and handsome Gongzi stared at her. “For someone who doesn’t venture out of the main door nor cross over the threshold of the side door, how come you have started to do business?” “My family is in difficulties and there are elders and young in the family. It’s beyond my control.” The third time they met, the cold and handsome Gongzi stared at her. “Miss is decked in expensive finery from head to toe. Your family doesn’t seem to be in difficulties.” “Don’t just look at my glamorous appearance, in fact, I am not favored in my family.” She said tearfully with grievance. When the criminal case was brought to court, it was only then she saw the Lord Imperial Commissioner sitting on his high seat and she finally understood what it meant by ‘being crushed to death by government officials’. “Constable Shangguan, what else do you have to say?” The cold and handsome Gongzi stared at her. She was dumbfounded and screamed in her heart. This fellow is indeed here to seek revenge!

My Thoughts on Beloved at the Door
"Beloved at the Door" is the final installment in the Constable series, and after diving in, I can see why many consider it a highlight. This story focuses on the eldest sister, a clever trickster, and her budding romance with an upright official. Overall, I found it to be an enjoyable read, though not without its minor flaws.
First Impressions
From the get-go, I was drawn into the dynamic between the leads. The female lead's strong, independent personality, combined with the male lead's initial 'grudge' that quickly melts into admiration, created a captivating push-and-pull. The story felt lighthearted and fun, with a good balance of martial arts and romance that kept me engaged.
What Works Well
The strength of this novel lies in its characters and their relationships. I especially appreciated the male lead's respect for the female lead's capabilities and opinions. He treats her as an equal, allowing her to pursue her passions while still offering support and care. This respectful dynamic is a refreshing change from some of the more traditional portrayals in historical romances, and I found myself rooting for them. Many readers praised the male lead's considerate nature, particularly his patience in pursuing her and honoring her choices. The brief appearances of the sister constables from previous books also added a heartwarming touch, creating a sense of camaraderie and closure for the series.
Areas of Concern
While I enjoyed the story, I did find some aspects less satisfying. The ending felt somewhat rushed, and I wished for a more detailed resolution to the central case. Some readers felt the second half of the story was less compelling, with more "telling" than "showing," which I can understand. I also felt like, as in other books in the series, the plot takes a back seat to the romance.

Final Verdict
Despite some minor pacing issues and a slightly rushed ending, "Beloved at the Door" is a delightful and heartwarming conclusion to the Constable series. The strong characters, engaging romance, and lighthearted tone make it a worthwhile read, especially if you've enjoyed the previous installments. I'd recommend it to anyone looking for a fun, quick historical romance with a healthy dose of martial arts and a refreshing take on gender dynamics.
