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

Hua Yan discovered that Su Zishe gave Su Zizhan a significant amount of leeway within a certain range, this leniency also benefited her, at least, it prevented her from being locked up in a room as if she were in jail.


Perhaps, Su Zishe felt that Su Zizhan couldn't take her away, so he was very assured.


Maybe he also thought that after all, he was the Emperor Huaiyu of the Later Liang Dynasty, and with his memory restored, he could protect her. In his heart, he must resent Yun Chi; if it weren't for Yun Chi, they could be together. Therefore, even if he initially doubted whether Su Zishe gave the antidote to Yun Chi, it was still just a suspicion, and he still felt it was impossible.


Moreover, she was right under his nose, and he had noticed nothing amiss.
