After the Emperor Lost His Memory

When Shen Yunqiao was young, she picked up an amnesiac boy. He was breathtakingly beautiful, with a delicate, shattered kind of elegance, and she fell for him. After pursuing him for quite some time, he agreed to be with her. But soon afterward, he took a fall and regained his lost memories. He remembered everything except the time he'd spent with her. Shen Yunqiao: *sob* QaQ When she realized he wasn't a poor, helpless boy with no family, but the Fourth Prince, who had been driven into hiding by a plot against him, Shen Yunqiao hurriedly sent him back to the capital. She stayed behind in the north. Four years later, the boy had become emperor. When Shen Yunqiao's grandmother in the capital fell gravely ill, she returned with her fiance. Three months later, her grandmother had recovered, and Shen Yunqiao was ready to return to the north. But the day before she was due to leave the capital, someone suddenly shoved open her door. Shen Yunqiao turned around, and when she saw the visitor's dark expression, she froze. "Your Majesty..." "Shen Yunqiao, is there something you're hiding from me?" he interrupted. Shen Yunqiao's heart skipped a beat. She took a step back. "N-no, nothing." He reached out and lifted her chin. His smile was chilling and unhinged. "So you still want my daughter to keep calling someone else Father." ** After Liu Yao regained his memories, he finally understood why seeing Shen Yunqiao gave him such a splitting headache. It was because he had once loved her. But Shen Yunqiao had been the one who pursued him relentlessly, saying she'd love him for all eternity, and him alone. Yet the moment she discovered he wasn't who she'd thought he was, she couldn't wait to send him away. Then she got engaged to another man. Before he could decide whether to skin her alive and break her bones, or lock her up in a room, he discovered something else. In the eighth month after he left the north, she'd secretly given birth to a baby girl. After the truth came out, Liu Yao thought up countless ways to punish Shen Yunqiao. And yet-- She shamelessly sat on his lap, wrapped her arms around his neck, and nuzzled him gently. "Husband... can't you just let it go, for Qiaoqiao's sake?" The adorable little girl clung to his leg and threatened him in a babyish voice, "Father, if you don't forgive Mother, I'm going to cry." Liu Yao: "..." Damn it.

Blurb: In the sixth year of Zhaoming, Emperor Kangde began choosing a study companion for his seven-year-old legitimate son, leaving the whole court on edge. The reason was simple: despite being only seven, the young prince was said to be spoiled, willful, arrogant, domineering, and self-centered. The six-year-old heir of the Xuan'an Marquis was the unluckiest of all. The empress took a liking to him and chose him as the prince's study companion. From then on, the marquis's wife lived in constant fear. First, her child was a girl, so if the truth came out, the entire marquis's household would be doomed. Second, she worried that the prince's temper might lead her daughter to suffer all kinds of hardship in the palace. But every evening, Cui Zhibai came home and told her in a childish voice, "Mother, don't worry. His Highness treats me very well." The marquis's wife assumed her daughter was just being considerate and trying to comfort her. Until one day, word came from the palace that the heir was suffering from a stomachache. The marquis's wife hurriedly changed and went to the palace, only to find her daughter lying pale-faced in bed, frowning as she murmured that it hurt. Beside her sat the supposedly ill-tempered prince, gently rubbing his companion's stomach with his little hand, as if afraid to press too hard. Only then did the marquis's wife relax. Her daughter hadn't been lying about how well the prince treated her. Years passed in a flash, and everyone in Chang'an knew that the legitimate prince cherished his study companion and would never let anyone look down on her. ** Cui Zhibai spent ten years disguised as a boy. At seventeen, she finally decided to marry, bore a legitimate son, then faked her death and left Chang'an, putting an end to her nerve-racking life. That same year, the Prince of Jin, who had always treated her well, became bad-tempered and kept picking fights for no apparent reason. One moment he said no woman in the capital was good enough for him, and the next he said getting married was awful and ordered her not to marry. Cui Zhibai knew the prince hadn't yet figured out his feelings and was still acting like a domineering child, so she paid him no mind. Until the night her mother chose a fiancee for her. The young prince climbed over the wall into her family's study. His round-collared robe smelled faintly of wine. Cui Huebai was just about to ask a servant to make some hangover soup when the prince, elegant and noble, hugged Cui Zhibai with red-rimmed eyes and demanded, "Cui Zhibai, why are you getting married? Didn't we say that the two of us are the best in the world?" Then the prince leaned in and planted a loud kiss on Cui Zhibai's cheek, declaring possessively, "Will those wives of yours treat you as well as I do?" ** Gao Fang only realized later that, before he understood his feelings for Cui Zhibai, his actions had already made it clear that he liked her.
