There’s really no point in hiding that she’s actually a girl. Her mother’s reasoning for lying about the MC’s gender was simply because she was afraid she’d attract danger for being favored by the emperor for being his only daughter. But that point literally is shown as the emperor favors the mc openly already yet nothing happened. Even the mom admitted that it should be time to reveal the truth soon.
It’s the fact that everyone excluding the mom knows the actual truth and everyone truly believes mc is a boy but just looks cute dressed as a girl and lets it be.
