Upcoming: *Sharing a Bed with My Archrival After Losing My Memory*. A sweet romance in the works. Please add it to your favorites and show your support! Blurb below. In her previous life, after her family fell from power, Yuzhu went from a pampered noblewoman to the concubine of the powerful minister Shen Xu. Outsiders praised Shen Xu as a refined gentleman, never knowing that beneath the surface he was a twisted, ruthless madman. He loved nothing more than grinding down Yuzhu's pride and watching her flatter him and submit. Yuzhu was so tormented that sorrow consumed her, and she died of illness less than a year later. Reborn at fifteen, Yuzhu was still the daughter of the prime minister, and there was no one named Shen Xu in the capital yet. To avoid the disaster of her previous life, Yuzhu urged her father to stay out of the succession struggle. She herself drew close to the future crown prince, successfully becoming his crown princess. She kept a constant lookout for Shen Xu, but he never appeared. She never noticed that when her distant cousin, who was staying at the prime minister's residence, watched her from the shadows, his dark eyes concealed a terrifying madness. When Shen Xu fell into the gutter, everyone avoided him. Only one proud young girl held his face, wiped the blood from his wounds, and gave him a light he could never reach. He used every means at his disposal to try to seize that light. He made her fall, imprisoned her freedom, ground down her pride, and took everything from her, but he could never again have that moment's warmth. When Yuzhu died of illness, the madness Shen Xu had clung to all his life went out with her. He drank a cup of poison, lay down beside her, and was buried with her. When he opened his eyes, he had returned to seven years earlier. On the eve of the crown prince's enthronement, the prime minister's residence was surrounded by heavily armed troops. The general, dressed in white and as cold as the moon, walked up to her with a faint smile. He caressed her cheek, gently brushed her lips, and whispered hoarsely in her ear, "Big sister, it's been so long." Only then did Yuzhu realize she had never escaped Shen Xu's grasp. Pampered, proud young lady x a beauty with maxed-out brains and brawn, possessive to the extreme and completely unhinged 1. Both leads are reborn.

When she hears the minister has been thrown in prison, the Grand Princess is delighted. She puts on her prettiest new clothes and takes people along to the jail, intending to teach him a lesson. Before she can lay a hand on him, the unexpectedly amnesiac minister opens his clear, bright eyes and looks at her. His black hair falls to his waist, his skin is fair as snow, and the shackles have rubbed his ankles red. So fragile and pitiable, he leaves the Grand Princess utterly smitten. She immediately switches from beating him up to taking him away. But the amnesiac minister is aloof and self-possessed, and would rather die than submit. The Grand Princess has no choice but to coax him: "I'm your bride-to-be. I've come to take you home." She talks him into returning to her residence, then bullies him every day. She uses him to warm herself when it's cold, makes him hold her umbrella when it rains, and slips into his bed at night. Seeing the dignified, composed minister blush, the Grand Princess knows her scheme has worked and falls asleep sweetly in the crook of his arm. Without her rival, the Grand Princess's political career flourishes. But one night, the minister beside her regains his memories, returns to court, and rises to become chancellor, while she becomes a prisoner. Unable to bear the humiliation, the Grand Princess bangs her head against the wall. The minister is a precocious, cold-blooded young man who stops at nothing to get what he wants. He became the chief minister before turning twenty, but one bout of amnesia landed him in the Grand Princess's hands. The minister holds a grudge and repays every slight. He supports a new emperor, imprisons the princess, and is determined to avenge his humiliation. When he hears that the Grand Princess has banged her head against the wall, he rushes to the jail. There he sees her curled up in a little ball in the corner, looking at him with pure eyes. She asks timidly, "Who are you?" Suppressing the sly look in his eyes, the minister picks her up and coaxes her by the ear: "I'm your husband. I've come to take you home." At this, the sweet, obedient Grand Princess shows her little fangs, wraps her arms around him, and pummels and bites him. "You big bully! What took you so long?" (The minister who wanted to bully a little bunny has brought home a tiny tyrant.) Pampered, innocent Grand Princess x a minister who seems aloof and proper but is actually wild and dangerously seductive Message: To love someone else, you must first love yourself.
