Peach Blossoms Know my Name
Wen Qingli was born the younger of twin daughters to the prestigious Wen residence. Branded a curse by an ancient prophecy, she spent her entire life hidden from the world-forgotten by her father, rejected by her mother, and erased from her own family history.
When her beautiful and favored twin sister, Wen Youru, falls ill before an Imperial marriage decree can be fulfilled, Qingli is forced to take her place and marry Shen Jiarong, the empire's most respected Duke of Xian. Bound by duty and forbidden to reveal her true identity, Qingli enters a marriage built on lies.
What she doesn't know is that Jiarong had already fallen in love with her long before their wedding. Beneath the peach blossom trees outside the capital, they met as strangers and shared a love neither understood was destined by fate. Believing Qingli to be Youru, Jiarong unknowingly marries the woman he loves under the wrong name.
As their love deepens, Wen's residence deception threatens to tear them apart. Forced from the life she has finally come to cherish, Qingli is once again abandoned and erased while her sister takes her place. Believing he has lost her forever, Jiarong embarks on a desperate search to uncover the truth and find the woman who captured his heart.
Amid betrayal, family secrets, and political intrigue, a hidden twin and a loyal duke must fight for a love that was never supposed to exist.
For while the world forgot her name, the peach blossoms never did.
