Husband, Your Secret Identity Is Showing

This is the author's second official full-length novel. Please bear with any shortcomings.

[Blurb]

Princess Meng Qian of the Jiang Kingdom was spoiled and unruly from childhood. At fifteen, she disguised herself as a tea merchant and went to visit a neighboring country.

At the time, the moonlit night was enchanting. A young man in a jade-white robe embroidered with gold was telling fortunes on a street in the capital. His bearing was so striking that one glance stayed with her forever.

She tried several times to flirt with him, but he never responded. When unrest broke out in Jiang, she simply packed her things and left overnight.

Three years later, the two countries established diplomatic relations, and she was sent to the neighboring country as a princess bride. Before she left, her wet nurse warned her again and again:

"You can provoke anyone in this capital, but you must never cross the Imperial Preceptor."

She had long heard that the Imperial Preceptor was ruthless, and had once brought a whole country to ruin overnight. But she was here to marry a prince, and would have no dealings with the Imperial Preceptor, so she paid the warning no mind.

Unexpectedly, over the next month, she was successively named as the bride of three different princes, and all three fell gravely ill.

Everyone said she brought misfortune to her husbands and avoided her. Only one man, wearing the robes of the Imperial Preceptor, appeared behind her and silenced all the gossip with a single sentence:

"Your Majesty, I am willing to marry the princess."

On her wedding day, certain she was about to die, she seized the chance to flee. But at a turn in the road, the young man she hadn't seen in three years appeared before her, his features cool and composed, just as before.

In the confusion, she ducked into his arms to hide from the pursuing guards. From then on, two figures could be seen constantly fleeing through the streets of the capital.

On a night of brilliant stars, she lay on the ground, countless stars reflected in her eyes. He rested beside her with his eyes closed, still as peerless and elegant as ever.

When they talked about why she had fled her wedding, she simply took his hand:

"The Imperial Preceptor is ruthless. If I marry him, I won't last three days."

The man beside her slowly opened his eyes. Completely unaware, she went on:

"An old man of his age wants to marry a young woman. What shamelessness."

His hand tightened around hers without him realizing it. ?

After fleeing again and again and enduring a life of hardship on the road, she couldn't take it anymore and said goodbye to him: "Once I cut off the Imperial Preceptor's head on my wedding night, I'll spend the rest of my life with you."

Who could have guessed that on the night of her wedding, as her veil was slowly lifted, the familiar young man would be standing before her, eyes smiling? "I hear my bride intends to take my head?"

[Blurb]

The second year she has spent pretending to be General Shen's widow to make ends meet, Qu Yuan is framed and drugged with a slow-acting aphrodisiac.

She goes out to seek medical help, only to encounter bandits. As she falls off a cliff, she grabs the best-looking one to break her fall. She survives, but the drug in her body takes effect at the worst possible moment.

Burning with desire, Qu Yuan pins the bandit beneath her. When he refuses, she reveals her identity and threatens him. The trick works: the man's hand, which had been protecting his clothes, stops in midair. He gives in, half willingly and half reluctantly.

The young man is handsome, but seems inexperienced. She coaxes him gently and trains him by hand for a month. Once the drug has completely worn off, she leaves him a few taels of silver and makes her escape.

He's just a bandit. It was only a fling, and anyway, she paid him.

Shen Guiyan has never been involved in romantic affairs. After faking his death one day, he meets a woman who claims to be his wife.

She insists it is true, making him think his family arranged the marriage for him. Seeing that she has been widowed for years and is poisoned, he does not resist. He only hopes to return to the capital someday and make up for all he owes her.

A month later, his subordinate presents him with every detail of Qu Yuan's past. He pushes open the door, intending to question her himself, only to discover that she has already grown tired of him and left.

*

General Shen has spent years lying low in Black Wind Stronghold, and at last leads a surprise attack to break through the stronghold and capture its chief. On the day he returns home, everyone says Qu Yuan is lucky: after two years of widowhood, she has her husband back. But when Qu Yuan looks at the familiar face of the man on horseback, she is too frightened to speak.

She thinks her identity has been exposed, but he calmly takes her hand, pays respects at the family shrine, and greets the elders of the household. Only when they are alone does he pin her to the bed. His tongue against her earlobe is not as gentle as it used to be.

"You took my body and deceived my heart. You've occupied the place of General's wife for two years. How will you repay me, A Yuan?"
