The Princess No One Knows

Crown Prince Amanda, secretly a woman raised as heir after the emperor was poisoned heirless, maintained a tense rivalry with the ailing regent Jerold. A scheme by the treacherous prince Neal forced them into intimacy, easing Jerold's poison and arousing his suspicion. As Neal and his daughter plotted against her, Jerold discovered her secret and became her protector. Together they weathered crises, their bond deepening. When war erupted with Neal's betrayal, Amanda led the army while Jerold supported from within, defeating the traitor and securing the border. Upon their return, Jerold helped Amanda ascend as empress. She ruled for 38 years unwed, with Jerold steadfast at her side until their shared burial forged an enduring legend.
