Xie Fengxuan's version:
In the past, a single sentence from Chu Yuntan made him spend two extra years as a hostage in Longqi.
Now that Chu Yuntan has been deposed, Xie Fengxuan is determined to make her pay...
But after they meet, why does the sight of this woman groveling before him grow more and more irritating?
She has old injuries, and she's lost her memory too?
Fine. He'll heal her injuries first, then settle the score.
Wait... She doesn't need to regain her memories.
Chu Yuntan's version:
She transmigrates, and from the start runs into human traffickers. They promise to sell her to a good family, but because she's not in good health, they sell her to a brothel instead.
She has no memories of the original host, but she knows the original must have been a brilliant scholar. She can understand even the most obscure classical texts at a glance, and can play the most refined instruments as soon as she touches them!
She finally manages to establish herself in the brothel, performing but never selling her body, only to run into Prince Jin, a man feared even by human traffickers. He seems to know the original host, too?!
He wants her head the moment they meet. Oh my god, what did I ever do to you? What grudge, what debt is this?!
After waking from a dream...
Oh...
So it's a love debt.
Long Xiangjun's version:
He is a puppet emperor who has endured humiliation for years and finally reclaimed his kingdom.
Since the empress never harmed him, he only deposes her and spares her life.
But she sets a great fire and escapes.
As his yearning eats away at him, more and more truths come to light, and he can hardly accept them.
She helped him so much...
But he has already lost her.
The author's version:
I want to write a colorful novel. Yes, that's right, green.
This is a story about a woman who hasn't divorced yet, fakes her death, gets injured and loses her memory, then runs to her nemesis's territory and marries for a second time.
