Shen Zhaozhao, the legitimate daughter of the Shen family in the eastern part of the city, could climb walls at five and trees at seven. She led a group of noble young ladies in helping the helpless and giving generously. Lady Shen dreamed of marrying off this little troublemaker.
Jing Huaiyu, grandson of the Duke of Jing in the western part of the city, had mastered the Six Arts by five and could hit a target at a hundred paces by seven. He led the capital's young men in horseback riding and polo, skipping class and climbing walls. The Duke of Jing dreamed of kicking this unruly descendant out of the family.
Neither family expected the two sworn enemies to become neighbors after a great flood in the western part of the city.
The two groups in the capital who couldn't stand each other immediately went on alert.
“Zhaozhao, that Jing Huaiyu next door may be handsome, but he's rotten to the core. Don't let him lead you astray.”
“Huaiyu, that Shen Zhaozhao next door has a terrible temper. She'll grow up to be a shrew, so stay away from her.”
In public, Shen Zhaozhao never gave Jing Huaiyu the time of day, and whenever he saw her, Jing Huaiyu would go out of his way to avoid her.
Everyone thought they were mortal enemies who would bicker the moment they met.
Then they saw the usually aloof Young General Jing crouch on the ground, roll up his sleeves, and wipe the tears from a fallen girl's face, soothing her in a meek voice:
“Don't cry. When you cry, my heart melts.”
The noble young ladies of the capital gritted their teeth. “Our little cabbage has finally been eaten by a pig.”
The young men of the capital were heartbroken. “Why would Huaiyu do something so foolish?”

Invite You Into My Embrace
Gu Linglong was peerlessly beautiful, widely read, and especially skilled in medicine. As a child, the Imperial Preceptor foretold that she was destined to be empress. Betrothed to the Crown Prince, she was the brightest pearl in the capital.
Who could have guessed that during an autumn hunt, she would catch the eye of a neighboring country's ruler?
The country was poor and weak, the emperor timid and incompetent, and her childhood sweetheart, the Crown Prince, planned to send her off in a political marriage.
With King Guzang's proposal imminent, Gu Linglong, with nothing left to lose, sought help from the Ninth Prince, who was at odds with the Crown Prince.
Looking at the eyes hidden beneath white cloth, Gu Linglong swallowed all the words she'd prepared. After a long pause, she managed only: “Your Highness, would you be willing to marry me? I may not amount to much, but my medical skills are passable.”
By the bamboo-lined pond, the young man stood beside the water, a faint smile appearing on his cool, handsome face.
“It would be a great pleasure to have Miss Gu look after me.”
After they married, Gu Linglong treated him every day and never entrusted the task to anyone else. Xie Qinghuai paid little attention to worldly affairs, but he was gentle and gracious, and could give her the stability she wanted. He was the husband of her dreams.
But gradually, she began to realize that her refined, jade-like husband seemed to love someone else. Even when they shared a bed, he murmured another person's name in his sleep.
She had her suspicions, but never managed to ask him.
Only when she heard him say, “She's not like her,” did she understand that she was merely someone else's substitute.
After much deliberation, Gu Linglong handed him a divorce letter.
By candlelight, her clear-eyed, moonlike husband gently bound her hands and feet, then cut his own palm. Crimson blood dripped into a bowl, which he lifted and placed before her. His eyes held a possessiveness and fervor she had never seen before.
“Be good, Linglong. Drink it, and you'll be my eyes forever.”
From the male lead's perspective:
When Xie Qinghuai was fleeing through the southern borderlands, he made a promise to a young woman. But when he returned to the capital, he found that she had completely forgotten him.
He had spent his whole life scheming. He didn't mind using his wits one more time to take her and keep her by his side.

Snow Covers the World
Susu died on the grandest snowy night in the capital.
She had always been worth less than a speck of dust, born in filth and, at least, dying clean.
Her soul lingered between heaven and earth. Susu waited and waited, but the man she loved never came. Instead, a figure arrived, holding the jade pendant she had worn in life.
He carried her corpse through the long streets, stumbling along, then knelt on every stone step of Wujing Mountain, begging the Daoist to bring her back to life.
Susu was astonished. She had lived wretchedly for twenty years, yet someone had truly cared for her this much.
After that, she followed the figure through the days and nights, through spring and winter.
She watched him climb step by step to the highest ranks, watched him take the lives of her enemies, watched him sit alone by a lamp through long nights, and toss and turn beneath the moon, unable to sleep.
Later, he died too.
Susu held his cold hand and said through her tears, “Next life, you have to come find me sooner.”
From the male lead's perspective:
Shen Qian had long been in love with the young lady of the Zhao family, Xu. But he knew his place.
His family had nothing, he owned nothing, and he couldn't even afford a single pearl from the shoe of the woman he loved. She shone like the bright moon. He had never dared speak of his foolish longing for her.
One day, heavy rain fell in Langzhou, and the young woman showed up at his door with ginger soup.
“I made this for you in secret. Please don't tell anyone.”
Shen Qian touched his chest and sighed helplessly.
He was afraid he could no longer keep this foolish longing in check.
