Marrying the Heir Who's Near Death

Blurb:

Zhao Huairou, the legitimate daughter of the Yongshun Earl's family and once the most beautiful woman in the capital, was disfigured by her younger half-sister, Zhao Huaijing, who stole her engagement and took her place as empress.

With no further use for her, her family abandoned her, leaving her in a ruined temple to fend for herself.

Zhao Huairou dreamed a long dream that night. She saw the emperor die suddenly a few years later, the regent Lu Zong ascend the throne, the Yongshun Earl's family be confiscated, and Zhao Huaijing be sentenced to die by suicide.

After waking, she couldn't forget Lu Zong's sinister yet handsome face.

Then one day, that man collapsed at her feet, covered in blood.

Zhao Huairou cared for him day and night and pulled him back from the brink of death.

When he woke up, he had lost his memory. "Who am I?"

Zhao Huairou immediately clung to his arm and sobbed. "Husband, don't you recognize your Qingqing anymore?"

The regent, Lu Zong, was ambushed and left on the brink of death as he fled. He was rescued by a nun who was practicing Buddhism at a nunnery without taking full vows.

She even brazenly claimed to be his wife.

Lu Zong was no kind man.

To recover in peace, he decided to play along, teasing her with a smile. "So you're my wife. Then tonight..."

Zhao Huairou blushed to the tips of her ears.

Once he had recovered, Lu Zong originally planned to kill Zhao Huairou to silence her.

But in the end, he couldn't resist her charms and took her as a concubine.

In the end, even he hadn't expected to fall for her.

*

The capital's most beautiful woman, who had disappeared without a trace years ago, suddenly returned, and she was now the empress!
