Kindness First, Blade Second

[An old, embarrassing work. Do not read if you don't want a bad ending.] Having escaped the execution of her entire family as a child, Gongsun Changyi became Gu Jiangyu, the daughter of the Prince of Guanzhong. When she was ten, a beautiful young man came to Jibei. Quiet and aloof, elegant and reserved, he caught her eye. She was high above him; he was restrained and reserved. When she was sixteen, that young man brought her back to the Eastern Palace. He was high above her, and she... had already gone a little mad. "I remember that palace banquet. He sat among the princes and nobles, as if surrounded by them. I watched him turn to speak with the Prince of Jin. A careless, flirtatious smile spread from the corner of his mouth to the tips of his brows." "And then?" "After that, amid his overwhelming power and wealth, he continued to walk alone, until he finally waited for me." This is the story of a politically savvy male lead who schemes against the woman he loves for the sake of power, and then embarks on a long journey to win his wife back. [Reading Guide:] 1. This is not a sweet romance. One couple, with an amnesia plot. Both leads are sexually inexperienced, but the male lead is a crown prince and has secondary consorts. 2. This is an early work.
