Holding the Famous Minister System, I Cross-Dressed as a Man in Ancient Times to Reach the Top

Xu Yue transmigrated into a book.

She became the delicate female cousin in an Imperial Examination Novel – mother deceased, no brothers, isolated and helpless, forced to awkwardly reside in the male lead’s household with no support from her own family.

In her previous life, Xu Yue fought her way from orphanhood to PhD, never believing in fate. Even though women struggled to survive in ancient times, she refused to give up and pondered how to break the situation.

System: No, sorry, host. You can’t be a girl because I am the Famous Minister System.

Xu Yue: …

Years later, the villagers said the Xu family ancestors must have blessed their gravesite. Xu Yue recognized characters at three, composed poetry at five, became a Xiucai at eight, achieved Juren status at twelve, and topped the imperial examinations as Zhuangyuan at merely eighteen!

Parading through the streets on horseback, she enjoyed unparalleled glory.

Xu Yue: Thanks for the invitation. Have you heard the rooster crow at midnight?

Original Male Lead: Brother Xu’s talent overflows, his character noble and unsullied – truly a model for our generation.

PS: Pure wish-fulfillment novel, no angst, set in fictional dynasty so don’t overanalyze historical accuracy.

The female lead is extremely beautiful, supremely gorgeous. There will be considerable descriptions of her beauty. She will become the white moonlight of a glorious dynasty – mastering poetry, calligraphy, rites, and charioteering while possessing stunning looks.

Although there’s no CP, there are many one-sided affections. The female lead’s personality isn’t accommodating or kind-hearted, leaning more toward self-interest.
