Synopsis

[Woman disguised as a man + lighthearted + wits and strategy + romance + mystery-solving + two strong leads] Qin Fuyin was a chemical engineer. After transmigrating, she had to play two roles: take her twin brother’s place as heir to the Marquis of Shuobei, while also serving as the head of the Qintai Pavilion in the capital. The heir was a woman disguised as a man, yet the Third Prince had her dress as a woman and attend the Night Tansy Gathering. The heroine’s inner monologue: Are you messing with me? She uses her knowledge of chemistry to solve cases and overcome one crisis after another, including making tear gas by hand and using poison to create a fluorescent glow to crack a case involving poisoned military rations. In a case of nitrate poisoning, tracing the source leads her to an illegal weapons workshop. After returning to the capital, she also runs the Qintai Pavilion to great success. As she spends time with the Third Prince, Pei Muyuan, the two gradually fall in love. Her childhood friend, the wealthy young master Jin Yanfeng, seems like a spoiled playboy, but he is devoted to her. Later, when the Crown Prince becomes cruel and bloodthirsty, the heroine and hero join forces to fight for the throne...

In ancient times, perilla juice could be used as pH paper.

Those yellow-green points of light appeared one after another, making everyone draw a sharp breath.

“C-could it really glow?”

“Poison can glow? What... what kind of evil sorcery is this?”

Qin Fuyin explained, “Normal grains don’t change color under ultraviolet light. But once they’ve grown aflatoxin, they produce this yellow-green fluorescence. The more toxin there is, the brighter the glow.”...

She stammered, “I dreamed Your Highness was going to kill me...”

“Am I really so frightening in your eyes?” He clenched his fingers, his heart feeling as if it had been cut by a blunt knife.

“Remember this: for the rest of my life, the tip of my sword will never point at you.” His voice carried a chill.

It can have a romance pairing or not. I want something that doesn’t follow the same old formulas people have been writing for years, but instead brings something fresh.

Are There Any Books With a Highly Intelligent, Meticulous Heroine Who Plans Every Move?

Looking for books similar to "In the 1960s, I Became the Scheming Female Lead's Stepping Stone". The female lead can suffer, but she must always get revenge. Good writing would be nice, but isn't essential. I just hope the golden finger isn't too overpowered; a little female-lead luck is fine. I still prefer smart female leads.
