She Helped the Prince Fight for the Throne from the Start—But She's a Woman! Plot:

Su Wan, daughter of the Minister of Revenue, disguises herself as a man to infiltrate the Eastern Palace and become a strategist for Xiao Jingheng, an unfavored concubine’s son, in order to clear her father’s name from false treason charges. From the very beginning, she helps him defuse a poisoning frame-up by the crown prince and secure the crucial Jiangnan disaster relief task, giving Xiao Jingheng an early edge in the succession struggle. But as their bond deepens, Su Wan’s female identity keeps slipping: her pearl hairpin is found by Xiao Jingheng, her soft profile is spotted while making medicine at night, and during an assassin attack, Xiao Jingheng tears her chest binder while protecting her, revealing her curves… Moreover, Xiao Jingheng’s gaze toward “him” shifts from brotherly trust to an unspoken, burning warmth he can’t hide. When succession power plays clash with a woman’s hidden feelings, Su Wan must balance clearing her father’s name, hiding her identity, and evading Xiao Jingheng’s overstepping advances—will this secret-filled succession game lead them to stand together or drift apart?
