Snow on the Mountains of Qijing

Shen Rujun entered the civil service at sixteen, was ordered to tutor the crown prince at eighteen, and helped the young prince ascend the throne at twenty, becoming a regent with power over the entire court.

In just two years, he became a hated, treacherous official.

Everyone knew that Shen Rujun and General Feiyun, who had long been stationed in the northern desert, had been classmates. But their relationship was as distant as the road from Qijing to the frontier.

At the palace banquet during the late emperor's reign, the two saw each other without so much as exchanging a greeting. Their relationship was truly terrible.

Yet in the heavy snow of the second year of Chunshun, someone saw General Feiyun standing guard outside the regent's residence all night. When the gates opened the next morning, a servant of the manor said, "It's snowing hard out here, General. You should head back."

General Feiyun glanced inside. "Your lord spent all night thinking. What did he say?"

"My lord says the General has been in the northern desert for years and may not know the rules of the manor now that you've just returned to the capital. The manor's guards don't recruit men, but..." The servant lowered his head. "My lord can take the General as a concubine."

General Feiyun raised an eyebrow. "Go back and tell your lord that I won't be a concubine. If he refuses, don't blame me for telling everyone in Qijing that he secretly kissed me when we were young."

The servant said, "My lord says that if the General tells anyone, you can forget about ever setting foot in the manor again."

General Feiyun was left speechless.

So many years had passed, but his temperament hadn't changed at all.
