Looking for Well-Written Political Intrigue Novels

I want a smart female lead with a high status who knows when to keep a low profile or conceal her abilities 🙈 No scummy fathers and stepmothers, or concubine half-sisters constantly causing petty trouble in the household. No sweet romance, just a pure historical power struggle 🤗

Qing Palace Novels Are So Good!

I'd like to read something like Qing Dynasty: The Noble Consort Eradicated Consort De and Became Empress Dowager.

Looking for a Palace-Intrigue Novel

The heroine is a modern woman who transmigrates, or is reborn from infancy, and develops feelings for the emperor without loving him. I think she dies from poisoning in the end. There are many flowers in the palace, and the emperor and the child are away on an inspection tour at the time.
