[Both leads are devoted to each other / Fakes her death and returns with a child / Reunite from the start / Green tea pursues his wife / System]

[The male lead can sometimes hear the conversations between the female lead and the System]

[In this version of the world, women can take the imperial examinations and become officials, and female officials’ husbands stay home to support their wives and raise the children]

After Shen Qingyun dies, she binds herself to System 53 and transmigrates into a male-oriented novel with no romance.

Her mission is to help the male lead ascend the throne.

Disguised as a man, she serves as his strategist for five years, finally completing the mission.

But she never expected that a drunken night of confusion would leave her pregnant with the male lead’s child.

To save her own life, she fakes her death and flees the day after he is crowned emperor.

Shen Qingyun finally settles in the south with her daughter, only for that wretched System to return with another mission.

Either she becomes the Grand Secretary within five years,

or her daughter, who should never have been born, dies in an accident within five years.

Forced to embark on the path of becoming a female official, Shen Qingyun works her way back to the capital through the imperial examinations.

But... can someone tell her why the male lead has his eye on her again on her very first day in the city?

Chu Xuan has a little immortal strategist who loves disguising herself as a man.

He and his strategist met when they were nobodies and climbed together to the pinnacle of power.

On the eve of his coronation, he thought he and his strategist had finally realized their mutual feelings.

But it was all just a beautiful dream.

His strategist had faked her death and run away!

Chu Xuan has no idea where she went, so he searches desperately, as if looking for a needle in a haystack.

Just as he finds her and plans to force her to return to the capital with their daughter, he hears that she intends to go to the capital to take the imperial examinations.

Chu Xuan abandons all his plans and devotes himself to looking forward to their reunion in the capital.

[The worldbuilding is entirely made up, the political intrigue is for beginners, and the romance is the main focus]
