The Golden Fur Coat

Resilient little white flower x a bewitching ghost with a hidden dark side

The late emperor died, and the Great An dynasty entered a hundred days of mourning.

Xue Fuying, dressed in white, knelt with the other consorts before the late emperor’s memorial tablet.

After a few verses of prayers for the dead, footsteps sounded outside the hall. The crown prince dismissed the other consorts, then knelt beside her.

The young crown prince put his hands together, lowered his eyes gently, and softly recited the prayers.

Beside him, Xue Fuying caught the scent of sandalwood on his person, and her shoulders trembled almost imperceptibly.

When one stick of incense had burned down, the gentle crown prince turned his head and gazed at her with a smile.

In the calmest voice, he said with a sigh:

“Mother Consort.”

“Father Emperor is finally dead.”

A clap of thunder left Xue Fuying deathly pale.

In the mourning hall, all white as far as the eye could see, she watched helplessly as

the crown prince, renowned among outsiders for his dignified manners and respect for propriety, boldly laid a large hand on her slightly rounded belly.

“Mother Consort, the one in your belly… is it my younger brother, or my child?”

Both leads are virgins; happy ending. Blurb written on September 12, 2025.

When her elder sister died of illness, Xue Ci took her place and married into the Shen family. Her husband’s family had no idea she was a concubine-born daughter of the Xue family, and after they married, her husband treated her wonderfully.

He was gentle, considerate, and attentive. After six months of marriage, they were more devoted to each other than ever.

But her husband didn’t know that his wife was hiding two things from him.

First, the Xue clan carried a Gu in their blood, and Xue Ci had the Bonding Gu.

The Bonding Gu is planted in the woman and her partner on her wedding night. After that, on every full moon, if they do not make love, Xue Ci will gradually grow weaker and die.

After half a year of talking herself into it, she finally shared a bed with her husband.

As for the second thing

One day, her husband told her that his younger brother, who had been away fighting, had returned.

Xue Ci’s hand trembled as she arranged flowers, and a peach blossom slipped down with a soft pat.

*

No one knew that she and the second young master of the Shen family had once been in love.

They had been childhood sweethearts who swore eternal vows, but later she heard that the second young master Shen had died on the battlefield.

She saw him again on a snowy night at the start of spring, as he swung down from his horse.

They said he had returned to the capital to pay his respects to the emperor. He refused all the rewards offered by the Son of Heaven, asking only to marry his childhood sweetheart.

But when he learned that his old love had “died of illness,” he ignored everyone’s objections and insisted on marrying her memorial tablet.

*

Amid falling snow and bitter frost, the second young master Shen stood beneath the eaves, tall and slender.

Her husband held her hand as she lowered her head and walked up to him. Afraid to look at his expression, she called to him in a trembling voice: “Erlang.”
