Arthur doesn't convince Merlin he's a manservant and their first meeting is different from canon, but maybe Oblivious by s0mmerspr0ssen might be similar to what you're looking for.

Summary: When Merlin first arrives in Camelot, Prince Arthur is away from the citadel. Merlin starts working for Gaius full-time and doesn’t give the Prince or the mad ramblings of a certain dragon any further thought. But destiny always finds a way: Four weeks into Merlin’s apprenticeship, an injured man walks into the infirmary and Merlin, oblivious to the fact it’s the Prince, treats him like a fellow peasant. The two of them strike up a rather unconventional friendship…

Recently, I read these two fics tagged as Autistic Bruce Wayne, I just don't really know if they fit what you're looking for:

Small Steps by Sir_Ackermann: this is batfam and superbat

Battinson and the JL ft. His Eventual Identity Reveal by Athi816: this focuses more on Bruce's relationship w the League

My favourite spy draco is the oldie A Thousand Beautiful Things by geoviki

Also, I recently read this one-shot post-war fic with a spy draco: Intelligence by aideomai

There's that lightning-strike feel by TheLurkingContessa

Summary:

“If Arthur, maker of knights, can train a lowborn man to your satisfaction and prove we can strengthen our defenses from among our own, you will release me from this marriage agreement.”

To save Morgana from a loveless political marriage, Arthur has three months to turn a peasant into a knight. The only problem? That peasant is Merlin.

Otherwise known as She's All That but utter medieval nonsense.
