Summary
My dearest Water Buffalo,
Three times I have written this letter out, three times approached a crisis point, three times made provision for the outcome where I do not survive. Three times I have written this letter out, and each time I have felt the relief that comes with undoing a lie. Three times I have written this letter out and three times torn it up. One more crisis passed, one more road taken on the branching path, one more chance to do the right thing before there are no branches left on my path at all.

Summary
The return of one man from the dead should, in all but exceptional circumstances, be an occasion for celebration among his friends and family. The return of three men, all intimately connected with one another, and having a host of friends, patrons and family members in common, justifies a party of special magnificence.

Summary
“Excuse me.”
Jinghuan paused. “I’m sorry, Sir Su, am I going on too much? Maybe I should get to the point. I am told that I sometimes tell stories much too slowly.”
“No, it’s not that, your highness. I think you are summarizing events very well. Only I’m a little confused. Lin Shu… turned into the most beautiful man the court had ever seen?”
Or, Prince Yu Swears He Will Explain What This Has to Do With Jingyan Eventually.

Summary
Meng’s messages to Jinling and Jingyan are short and carefully edited. He writes about the skirmishes that lead to battles and the battles that lead to stalemates. He writes about the snow, how it drifts in the valleys and low places, how it melts beneath the sun and freezes again during the night. He writes about his generals, his lieutenants, and his captains. He writes about his strategist.
He writes, Mei Changsu is a skilled tactician. His insights have led to profitable battles with low casualty rates. He silently mouths to himself, He can no longer ride a horse. I don’t know how he will travel back to Jinling, and then writes, With Mei Changsu’s assistance, we will win this war quickly and with lower costs than anticipated.
He says to himself, “Mei Changsu is the cost,” and then covers his mouth with his hand, the scales of his gauntlet pricking at his skin.
---
Meng spends a cold winter caught in a war with two fronts--the Greater Yu army on one front, and a dying strategist on the other. It's basically ten thousand some-odd words of Meng-feels, Meng&Lin Shu bromance, and the slow breaking of a man's heart as he watches his best friend die.

Summary
After Mei Changsu's identity is revealed in front of the Emperor, Jingyan doesn't fall apart in private. He goes straight to see Lin Shu, who is not prepared for the full force of Jingyan's feelings.
Another take on the classic theme of Jingyan Finds Out, now with added passionate yelling (productively, at each other!), sex as a gateway to emotional honesty, and the conflict between Lin Shu's desire to manhandle Jingyan and his body's unwillingness to move.

Summary
There was something of Xiao Jingyan there, in the firmness of his jaw, the unforgiving slash of his brows, and most clearly in the eyes that neither saw nor conveyed deception. But Long Zhan was not Jingyan, could never be, no matter how much Changsu might wish otherwise, because Jingyan was dead.
In service to a very-much-alive Prince Qi, Jingyan dons a Jianghu-typical disguise and infiltrates the Jiangzuo Alliance to suss out this Mei Changsu fellow and see if he might be useful in helping them re-open the Chiyan conspiracy case.
Basically, a slightly ridiculous premise where everyone is running around the Jianghu with masks, multiple identities, and secret agendas.
