    This is not a cross-dressing story; both the male and female leads are reborn. The female lead is the best at verbal sparring, and she and the male lead are evenly matched. This is not a romance disguised as a political intrigue story; the female lead prioritizes official duties over personal feelings. Synopsis: In her previous life, the female lead was the Left Vice Minister of the Ministry of Personnel. Reborn, she returns to her early days as a county magistrate, resolving the crisis of her past life and changing her predicament. She returns to Chang'an with outstanding political achievements, ultimately defeating her enemies step by step, exposing the mastermind, and regaining the pinnacle of power. During this time, the female lead's feelings for the male lead evolve from distrust to trust, and finally, love. Character traits: The female lead is outwardly warm but inwardly cold, not easily trusting anyone; the male lead is calm, calculating, and cunning. Relationship: Initially, the female lead unilaterally uses the male lead, while the male lead initially has a one-sided crush on her. Later, they develop mutual affection. PS: This story is heavily based on historical research; the background and officialdom largely reference the political struggles of the mid-to-late Tang Dynasty. There are many instances of pedantry.
