1.
One day, General Feng and Lord Yu were searching for a rare book in the library. General Feng's sharp eyes and quick hands soon found the book he wanted. "Zhouxing, I found it!"
Lord Yu glanced over without much interest, but suddenly paused and smiled gently. "A Lu, I think I heard that little palace maid who serves Changle calling for you."
"Really? Wait here, Zhouxing. I'll go check." Feng Lu put down the book and hurried out.
Lord Yu smiled faintly and quietly picked up the book General Feng had left behind.
Behind the bookshelf, the County Princess of Fuan had just finished straightening her clothes and was about to greet her fiance. "...???"

The back entrance to the Ministry of Justice archives.
Beneath an umbrella, Fu Ning, her face concealed by a veiled hat, looked coldly at the man she was about to marry. Her voice was hoarse. "Move!"
Yu Zhouxing lowered his eyes. His usually gentle face had turned to ice. Though burning with anger, he held himself back and spoke quietly. "Calm down! If you break into the Ministry of Justice archives, do you want the censor to impeach you?!"
"Calm down? For the sake of power? If I don't get in today, I'll never have another chance." Fu Ning's eyes reddened despite herself. Her voice was mocking, and she was nothing like the dignified, noble County Princess of Fuan.
"I'll help you."
Fu Ning looked up. There was tenderness in Yu Zhouxing's eyes. The hand that usually held a brush gently brushed the reddened corner of her eye. His voice was low. "I'll help you."
