    The female lead is a seemingly weak but actually intelligent and slow-to-realize legitimate daughter; the male lead is a stoic and cunning royal uncle who wins over the female lead's "pretending to be weak" tactic and gradually falls for her. In the early stages, the female lead pretends to be weak and doesn't realize what's going on, while the stoic royal uncle wins over the female lead in their daily interactions. From testing the female lead to falling deeply in love, it's a classic ancient romance novel about a legitimate daughter with a complicated relationship!
