    Summary

    "Xiao-he, you need to start hitting them back." From what Luo Yuan had gathered from Binghe's story, and what he could remember of PIDW, Qing Jing had partly eaten him alive because he was so sweet and polite. The rich kids up there only saw someone who was both weak and below them, therefore perfectly within their rights to stomp on. "If they want to treat you like a dog, you remind them that dogs bite."

    His sweet, adorable, little brother hunches his shoulders inwards and sniffles. The last of his tears are drying on his cheeks, the salt tracks already chapping them.

    "But... Yuan-ge... Shizun says that-"

    "Fuck him!"

    Shen Yuan wakes up as something that shouldn't exist. He decides to be a good big brother.

    Summary

    After a brief meeting of families and an equally brief betrothal, Wei Wuxian is married on a balmy morning in the autumn of his twenty-fifth year.

    Despite his passion for love-ballads and romance novels, Wei Wuxian never expected that he might be married one day. As the common-born ward of a merchant, he lacked the standing to find a wife among the gentry; and though he had liked the idea of a love match—where neither his rank nor that of his wife would matter very much, as long as Wei Wuxian could provide a comfortable home for them—no would-be beloved had ever materialized.

    It was thus that he came to be unwed at the age of twenty-four, when one of his uncle’s old friends from court wrote to Lotus Pier to ask if Jiang Fengmian would be in favor of a ruzhui marriage with Wei Wuxian as the bridegroom.

    Or: the minghun of Wei Wuxian and Lan Wangji, in four parts.

    Summary

    When Lan Wangji came to the magistrate’s estate in Yunmeng, he found the aged manor house in a state of neglect.

    The county was no longer what it used to be. Few people within its borders could truly be called wealthy; and with no diversions for rich men to be had within a day’s travel from the magistrate’s seat, a posting in Yunmeng had long been considered something of a punishment in the capital.

    We grant Lan Wangji a fifteen years’ appointment at the magistrate’s office in Yunmeng, read the imperial decree bestowed to Lan Wangji last month. In this way, the Second Young Master Lan can serve the people in peace, in accordance with his temperament.

    This did not come as a surprise, for Lan Wangji’s appointment—which he did not consider a punishment, in spite of the circumstances—had been granted in retribution for his brother’s betrayal of the Emperor.

    In which Lan Wangji goes into exile, immerses himself in local tradition, and falls in love with a river god.

    Summary

    It was said, now and then, that the only person whose will governed Yue Qingyuan—apart from Yue Qingyuan himself, of course—was his eldest shidi, Shen Qingqiu.

    It was said somewhat more often that the only commands Shen Qingqiu obeyed were those of his shimei Qiu Haitang.

    In which Qiu Haitang follows her betrothed to Cang Qiong, and Shen Jiu is both author and leading performer in a tragedy of errors.
