Ruo Li was raised in the imperial palace from childhood by the ruler of the Southern Kingdom. She was exquisitely beautiful and alluring, at once innocent and sensual, and was used solely to ensnare men.
The Southern and Qi Kingdoms had been at war for many years, and the time for a decisive battle was drawing near.
The Sixth Prince of Qi personally went to the front lines. They said he was a young man just coming of age, in the prime of his youth.
The ruler of the Southern Kingdom found a way to send Ruo Li into the Qi army's camp.
There, Ruo Li met Qi Yun for the first time.
The young prince wore gleaming silver armor. He stood straight as a pine, his face as fine as jade, and his dark eyes shone brilliantly. He was impossibly handsome.
Ruo Li tried every trick and showered him with every tenderness until he fell for her and gave her his heart.
Then she betrayed him and left him.

Not long afterward, the Qi Kingdom conquered the Southern Kingdom.
Ruo Li was brought into the Qi imperial palace. Qi Yun, dressed in imperial robes, sat high above her and looked down, the tenderness once in his dark eyes gone without a trace.
For countless nights afterward, Qi Yun pinned Ruo Li in a corner, took her hand, and pressed it against the scar on his chest. In a hoarse voice, he said, “You did this to me!”
Knowing she had wronged Qi Yun, Ruo Li didn't dare hope for his forgiveness. She tried to end her life, but failed, and lost her memories instead.
After losing her memory, Ruo Li began treating Qi Yun as her lover, showering him with tenderness and sweet words every day.
Qi Yun said disdainfully, “Don't think you can fool me again!” But his body was far more honest than his words! ~~
A pure-hearted young prince x a scheming beauty
A corrupted emperor of Qi x a humble woman from a fallen kingdom
A man who says one thing and does another, pretending to be proper x a lovestruck young woman who wears her heart on her sleeve
