I Was Supposed to Be a Bedchamber Maid, So Why Is My Husband Draping a Phoenix Robe over Me?

Xuetang, who has lost her memory, has always believed what the slave trader told her about her origins: she is the daughter of a once-wealthy merchant family, sold to the marquis's household after her family fell on hard times.

Become the personal maid and bed companion of Second Master Pei, who cannot speak? So what!

A good life is something she can make for herself. She will never give up on herself.

Night after night, she is clever and cautious, carefully navigating her circumstances, and manages to get by. That is, until the daughter of the prime minister marries into the marquis's household and starts bullying and tormenting her at every turn.

Xuetang doesn't know how she offended the woman. Aware of the difference in their status, she can only swallow her anger.

Then one day, a vivid dream finally brings back her memories...

It turns out that the future mistress of the marquis's household is the real heiress whose place Xuetang occupied for over a decade.

And Xuetang is the fake heiress the other woman calls "the ungrateful wretch who killed Grandma and deserves to freeze to death on the street."

Everyone waits to see how the real heiress, now the mistress of the household, will humiliate and torment Xuetang. But they wait and wait, only to see...

The notoriously cruel and cold Second Master Pei recover his voice, take Xuetang's hand in front of everyone, and place the phoenix seal into her hands himself.

Dressed in a splendid phoenix robe beside the emperor, Xuetang looks coldly at the family from the prime minister's residence who once cast her aside like a rag. Now they regret it beyond measure and kneel, begging her to come back.

"Xuetang, please, won't you come back to your mother?"
