    Why not come in and take a look? It's a story about a woman disguised as a man, no romantic pairing, the female lead is strong on her own, a satisfying and satisfying read!!! The white wolf tail and green earrings are super cool!! Plus, she has many identities, revealed right away, no beating around the bush! She's the number one figure in Kyoto's underworld and dark web, ruling both the legitimate and criminal worlds! The low rating is because it's only been out for a short time.

    I don't know if this counts as a woman disguised as a man, because the female protagonist directly transmigrates into a man, but the writing is really good. It's a very normal book. As a transmigrator, the female protagonist has a cheat code, but she has a humble and pragmatic heart. She never gives up on returning to the modern era, even though she has someone she likes. But she always understands that her soul does not belong to that feudal era.

    The palace lanterns flickered, the bed curtains were half-drawn, and the floor was a mess, with a breast binder, official robes, and a dragon robe scattered haphazardly. The breast binder and official robes were hers. And the dragon robe undoubtedly belonged to the woman behind her. She had only just returned from three years of exile to the southern barbarians, and before she could even settle into her new post, she had drunk too much at the welcoming banquet and slept with her superior. Jiang Qingci wanted to cry but had no tears; for a moment, she even wanted to die. "A woman disguised as a man to serve in court is deceiving the emperor; to insult me ​​in court while drunk is insubordination." A deep, husky voice, carrying the oppressive aura of a superior, came from behind her. Jiang Qingci wanted to close her eyes and pretend to be dead, but a large hand suddenly landed on her neck, gripping her tightly. The tiger's mouth lifted her chin, forcing her to look up. Jiang Qingci could no longer pretend to be dead and had to open her eyes.
