After Losing My Memory, I Became the Enemy Nation's Empress

-

Everyone says that Jing Ran, the Fifth Prince of Beizhao, is a Martial God incarnate. He caught a ferocious tiger single-handedly at thirteen, pacified the Western Desert in a single battle at fifteen, and even his unusual blue eyes have become a symbol of his fame. As a result, no one ever mentions the days he was abandoned in the cold palace and left to suffer from hunger and cold, or his past of being scorned by his brothers and treated with contempt by the servants.

Jing Ran learned far too early how fickle human warmth and coldness could be, and he didn't particularly care when he was poisoned and blinded. What he never expected, after waking from a fall into the river, was to meet a girl with amnesia who immediately called him "husband."

She was spoiled and picky, complaining that the tea he brewed was too weak and the bed he made was too hard. She would even give him a sour look if he said a couple of extra words at dinner, and she had more rules than the imperial palace. But she was also charming and clever, winning people over for him, plotting to secure the throne for him, and shielding him from one scheme after another...

Jing Ran thought he was willing to turn their pretend romance into real love, and willing to offer her the bloodstained phoenix seal, even if she came from an enemy nation, even if the jade pendant she wore close to her skin was engraved with the name of Zhao Yubai, the enemy nation's crown prince. He recognized only one thing: she was his wife.

But on the eve of their wedding, she set his bedchamber ablaze, shot an arrow through his chest amid the flames, then fled with his seal and Zhao Yubai.

He was gravely wounded and passed out. When he woke, he heard the terrible news: the two had married, the Crown Princess was pregnant, and the Crown Prince was about to ascend the throne.

Jing Ran couldn't stand it for another moment. Ignoring the ministers' desperate pleas, he endured the agony in his chest and set off for Nanjin that very night. He was going to kill that despicable man and take his wife back!

Bai Zhen fell into the water by accident and woke with no memory, with only a handsome blind man beside her who claimed to be her husband.

Since the man had an incomparable appearance and was attentive and obedient, Bai Zhen reluctantly accepted the fact that she was married to a blind man.

Until the day her memories returned, when she suddenly remembered: she was the Crown Prince of Jin, disguised as a man, and her true name was Zhao Yubai.

***Extra Scene***

The palace hall was dimly lit, mist curling through the air. Jing Ran entered with his sword, consumed by the desire to reclaim his wife. He pointed the blade at the person removing their golden imperial robes, but abruptly stopped a moment later.

Fine gauze fluttered, and the beaded curtain swayed gently. Jing Ran stared hesitantly at the woman before him

Zhenzhen? How could the wife he thought of every night be here? Why was his Zhenzhen wearing imperial robes? And why were the people outside shouting, "Protect the Emperor"?

Candlelight burst in his eyes, and Jing Ran lowered his gaze in a daze. What did Zhenzhen's rounded belly mean...?

The Crown Prince (Zhao Yubai/Bai Zhen), raised by his doting Empress Mother into a refined gentleman, x the enemy nation's prince (Jing Ran/Lin Ran), unloved by his father and mother, who never follows the rules

* Not sure whether to give a warning: a daughter will inherit the throne.
