Blurb to be determined. Male rivals competing for her, a broken relationship mended.
In the bitter winter of the seventeenth year of the Mingyi era, heavy snow blanketed Guanzhong.
When the long winter snows finally ended, Ying Wei met Xie Shuhuai again.
She once thought he would die beyond the border, in the deserts of the north.
Three years ago, she toyed with his sincere feelings. She cast aside the one person this heaven-blessed prodigy had ever loved as if he were worthless, humiliating him like a defeated soldier.
That same year, the Xie family lost power, and the late emperor took a dislike to him. Xie Shuhuai was sent north to guard the border.
Now he has returned to the capital, holding power in his hands and controlling the feudal lords through the emperor.
Everyone at court relies on him, and the clans that once fawned on the powerful and trampled the weak are now silent with fear.
The first to tremble as if walking on the edge of a blade is the Ying family.
Fine snow fell softly. Ying Wei stood still and finally said in a quiet voice, “May Your Highness be well.”
·
The Ying family racked their brains for ways to soothe Xie Shuhuai’s anger.
Fortunately, the regent seemed not to care about their past grievances.
It was hard not to admire his magnanimity.
The Ying family soon began looking for another match for Ying Wei.
Unfortunately, after hearing about her history with the regent, the young men of the capital kept their distance.
But everything changed after a grand palace banquet.
The capital was full of beautiful women, yet Ying Wei could still be called the most beautiful woman in the city.
With such beauty before them, quite a few young men from prominent families were eager to make a move.
After the banquet, a handsome young man could not resist hurrying after Ying Wei.
Blushing, he confessed his affection for her.
Ying Wei smiled sweetly and coaxed him into leaving with just a few words, his face bright red.
She turned to leave, only to see Xie Shuhuai standing not far away beneath the deep night sky.
He had witnessed the whole scene.
He chuckled. “You haven’t changed much.”
“Toying with him,” Xie Shuhuai said darkly, “just like you toyed with me back then.”
