Xiziqing

Crown Prince Yun Chi chose as his consort the youngest daughter of the Hua Family, Hua Yan, and the news shattered the hearts of countless ladies in the Capital City.
It was said: the Crown Prince could write poetry at three, compose essays at seven, debate with the greatest scholars at ten, shoot arrows with precision at twelve, oversee the examinations of all scholars at fifteen, and was regent by the time he was sixteen. He reached the pinnacle in letters, the extreme in martial arts, his looks were world-shaking, and his presence unrivaled.
Hua Yan felt as though a gigantic pie had fallen from the sky, landing squarely on her head.
From then on, was she to compete with the entire world for this man?
--------------------
Yun Chi: Standing at the pinnacle of the Azure Clouds, he learned the art of balance, practiced the strategies of an emperor, envisioned the land and skies in his heart. Within the nine-layered royal palace, he could turn his hands to clouds and his palms to rain, holding sway over the court and the nation, trimming himself into a figure free from desire and henceforth unyielding.
Hua Yan: She viewed herself as beneath the dust, with all her emotions and desires, disliking the Son of Heaven's court, preferring the ordinary alleys, treading on ten feet of soft red and experiencing all facets of life. She believed that nothing was better than green mountains and clear waters. "If you promise me a lifetime, I will accompany you for an eternity."

Schemes Of A Flower

On this day, Yun Chi was dealing with memorials in the Imperial Study when he suddenly felt a heart-wrenching pain that made it impossible for him even to hold his pen, and it dropped onto the desk with a "clatter," staining a large swath with ink.


Little Zhongzi was in attendance nearby, and upon seeing the change in coloring, said, "Your Highness, what's wrong with you?"


Yun Chi clasped his chest, feeling the pain radiate from his heart to his limbs and bones, so excruciating that his face turned pale and he couldn't speak.


Little Zhongzi was terrified, and immediately called for help, "Quick, someone! Fetch the Divine Doctor!"


Yun Ying rushed in, saw Yun Chi's condition, and left in a hurry with a change in expression.


Not long after, Tian Bujue hurried over, and upon seeing Yun Chi clutching his chest with a pale face, he too was startled. He rapidly reached out to take Yun Chi's pulse. After a moment, his brows furrowed, "Strange indeed!"
