[1v1, both leads are virgins, sweet romance]
Huai Ge was the top courtesan at Huaige House. Delicate and soft, she was alluring and charming, and had already become famous throughout Shu's capital before coming of age. Yet a woman like her was the daughter of a disgraced official, destined to be a courtesan for life, with a tattoo on her right forehead.
On the day Huai Ge made her debut, a noble guest came to Huaige House. He paid generously and took her for himself, sparing her the fate of being shared by a thousand men.
Afterward, rumors spread that Huai Ge belonged to him...

Everyone knew how cruel Bo Ming, the Emperor of Shu, was. He seized the Yi family's throne, slaughtered the imperial Yi clan, destroyed his mother's family, and stained his hands with blood. His cruelty was beyond imagining.
Ever since Huai Ge learned who the man was, she lived in fear day and night, terrified he would have her killed. But as she waited, the man came to take her into the palace. And as she waited some more, he insisted that she bear his child.
When scenes from her previous life surfaced in her mind, Huai Ge was frightened and fled while pregnant.
