Fussy princess × stoic war god general | Married first, love later × amnesia and clinginess | Romance entwined with the fate of the nation
To avoid a political marriage, Shen Qingwu is forced to marry Xiao Yi, the great general of the Great Jing. On their wedding night, they agree on three rules, until she discovers the woman’s handkerchief he treasures. So he already has a beloved in his heart.
Then an accident leaves her with amnesia. Without any memories, the pampered princess turns clingy and becomes her husband’s personal attachment: “Hug me,” “Kiss me,” “Pick me up!” The nine-foot-tall general goes from stiffly indulging her to gradually becoming addicted, soothing his tearful wife at night and shielding her from hidden attacks by day.
When her memories return, she brings up old grievances: “Doesn’t General Xiao have someone he loves most?”
But he pins her against the soft cushion of the carriage, his breath hot against her skin. “The only person I’ve ever loved most is Shen Tangtang.”
When enemy forces reach the border, she climbs the city wall in red and beats the war drum as a vow: “If you win today, I’ll share this realm with you. If you lose, I’ll be buried here with you!”
He looks back at the breathtaking flash of red on the city tower, his silver spear stained with blood. “This battle is for our country, and for you.” [Reading Guide]
