Xiezheng Stories

A story of Wei Yan, and of Chang Yu and Xie Zheng, in the world where Jinzhou never fell Wei Yan died hated. A regent with eighteen years of blood on his hands, executed in the autumn, buried far from the capital under a name he chose never to clear. He had his reasons. He always had his reasons. They were the kind a man takes to his grave on purpose. And then he wakes, in the cold, on a wall at Yanzhou, years before the worst of it. The woman he has loved his whole silent life is alive and sixteen and standing beside him. The disaster that unmade the world is two hours from happening. And this time, he knows exactly how it ends. What he buys with that knowledge is not glory. It is an ordinary world. A peaceful reign, a sunlit border town, a fierce girl who grows up to make her own name as a general and the serious boy who loves her in secret for twenty years, a cook no one can read, a scholar who stays warm, a prince with no monster in him. Everyone he failed in the other life gets to live in this one, free and happy and faintly bored, and not one of them will ever know there was another world, or what it cost the quiet old minister at the edge of the room to take it off them. A gentle story about second chances, the people we would save if we could, and the particular loneliness of being the only one left who remembers the life that never happened.

When she is five years old, Fan Chang Ning watches her sister carry a half-dead stranger in out of the snow and decides, in the way small children decide enormous things, that guarding him will be her job. It is the first thing she ever chooses for herself. It will not be the last. This is the story of the girl at the edges of the war. Stolen from a market crowd and sold north into a cold house. Traded back out of the dark. Thrown through the black air above a battlefield, and caught. Somewhere along that road she presses on a lonely boy the only thing she owns that is worth giving, a cricket folded from a blade of grass, and he presses a piece of imperial jade into her hand in return, and neither of them yet understands that the boy will grow into the emperor, or that a scrap of folded grass can come to outweigh a throne. Years later, a decree travels north with her name written inside it. Empress. The court calls it the great fortune the readers of faces saw in her when she was a baby. But Chang Ning has spent her whole life learning to tell a gift from a cage, and she knows the difference better than almost anyone alive, because she has been kept once already, and she will ride the length of the country to refuse being kept again. Told first in her voice and then in his, The Grass Cricket is a story about stolen children and the people who go back into the dark for them. About a young emperor trying with everything in him not to become his father. And about the oldest question love has ever asked. Whether to close the hand, or to open it. A companion to A Name Like Smoke. It stands on its own.

A prequel to Pursuit of Jade The story of Yu Qianqian. The cook who died in one world and woke in another. The woman the histories would crown, and never once know. In Three Parts: Part One: A Treasure Called Nothing Part Two: Her Side of the Story Part Three: The Tallest Room

Through trials and hidden dangers, they walk side by side - supporting, protecting, and trusting each other without hesitation. When she is injured and lies between life and death, fear breaks through his calm exterior. In a world filled with uncertainty, they become each other's anchor - braving storms together, choosing each other again and again. Their bond deepens through every hardship, strengthened by quiet moments of tenderness and unwavering loyalty.
