   This is a story with a single female lead. The male lead is a fallen noblewoman who transmigrates into the body of the female lead, who is the daughter of the Grand Duke of the Northern Border. Due to a palace intrigue-like situation, she is betrothed to the male lead, and since the kingdom is targeting the Grand Duke of the Northern Border, he doesn't want his daughter to be involved and therefore doesn't intervene. Even after arriving in her territory, the female lead is not arrogant and is very supportive of the male lead. If the male lead is injured, it might not be a big deal, but if the female lead is injured, it would be a much bigger problem.
