Description
Jiang Jiuqing is the princess of a vanquished nation. No one knows her extreme cleverness hidden under her ordinary skin——she also doesn’t want others to know either. Staying out of things is her manner towards handling affairs, and wanting nothing is the norm in her life. However she has a white moonlight. After not seeing him for many years, he has now completely blackened, causing trouble everywhere——The world’s number one lobbyist, the peerless and magnificent Young Master Ji Yu. Jiang Jiuqing had always thought that the reason why her white moonlight is a white moonlight is because he has forgotten about her, and will never belong to her. He is her master, and she assists him in lobbying the world. They are just allies, a symbiosis relationship, mutually using each other. A long, long time later, Ji Yu said—— “This world is frantic and absurd. Malicious people die an ugly death, and the merciless people are sought after. I was never reluctant to leave until I met you.” There are thousands of people in the world, and thousands of beauties, yet it is only you who can disturb my heart. Are you ready to fall in love with the smartest and most cold-hearted people in the world? The calm and cool-headed princess of a vanquished nation x the ruthless and revengeful number one lobbyist. Male and female leads are both very strong, white cuts black. “White cuts black” = someone who looks very gentle on the outside, but in fact, is actually very ruthless and two-faced

My Thoughts on The Words of the Number One
"The Words of the Number One" had me hooked from the start with its blend of action, adventure, historical elements, and romance set in ancient China. It's a complete story, and I appreciated the well-paced narrative and complex characters. This novel offers a unique take on the cunning protagonist trope, and I found myself consistently invested in the journeys of both the male and female leads.
First Impressions
What immediately grabbed me was the first-person perspective from the female lead, Jiang Jiuqing (JiuJiu). Initially, I was skeptical, but it allowed me to deeply connect with her rational and mature mindset. She's a princess who becomes a maid, and her ability to adapt without dwelling on revenge felt refreshing. I was intrigued by the premise of two intelligent individuals navigating a relationship built on suspicion and mutual need.
What Works Well
The dynamic between JiuJiu and Ji Yu (the male lead) is the heart of this story. Their relationship is ambiguous, filled with calculated moves and hidden intentions. Ji Yu hides his ruthless quest for revenge behind a facade of kindness, and JiuJiu sees right through it. I enjoyed the frankness and intelligence of JiuJiu's character and the slow shift in Ji Yu's feelings. The author excels at creating a sense of mystery and intrigue, and I always wanted to know what would happen next. The leads are wary of each other, they are both smart, and I felt that they were made for each other. I also found the romance to be a satisfying slow burn.
Areas of Concern
While I thoroughly enjoyed the novel, the handling of the "white moonlight" trope fell a little flat for me. The idea that JiuJiu's deep love stemmed from a brief encounter in childhood didn't fully resonate, and I found it difficult to believe that a feeling of gratitude could transform into a love so deep.

Final Verdict
Despite minor flaws, "The Words of the Number One" is a compelling read with well-developed characters, an intriguing plot, and a satisfying romance. I give it a solid 4 out of 5 stars. It's a gem that I'd recommend to anyone looking for a unique historical romance with intelligent leads and a touch of angst.
