Discovered Disguised as a Man, She Captivates Every Powerful Official

Gu Qingshu transmigrates into a book by accident, becoming a cannon-fodder female character who takes her older brother's place as a government official. To avoid the crime of deceiving the emperor, she keeps her secret identity hidden and nervously plays the part of a lazy, low-ranking official among the men. She calls all her colleagues brothers and even goes with them to the entertainment quarter to “listen to music.” She thinks she can keep her head down until retirement and return home without a hitch, but during a royal hunt, she accidentally falls into the water, revealing her figure and exposing that she is a woman. She expects her whole family to be executed and prepares to offer her neck to the blade. But the male leads, who should have sent her to the execution block, suddenly look at her in a completely different way! As the powerful officials at court close in on her from every direction, Gu Qingshu clutches her official robes and trembles. “My lords, I am guilty of deceiving the emperor. Please hurry up and throw me into the death cell...” Instead, the male leads adorn the prison with ten miles of wedding finery, each vying to marry her and take her home. The radiant, noble Grand Secretary presses her against the dragon throne, his eyes dark. “We’ve shared a bed so many times, and only now you tell me you’re a woman? Too late. You’ll have to take responsibility for my virtue.” The unruly young general hoists her over his shoulder and grits his teeth. “Going from a good brother to a good wife? That’s a bargain I can’t lose!” The calculating regent slowly removes her hair crown, smiling dangerously. “The death cell is too cold. How about you come to my bed and take your punishment there?”
