The door closes quietly behind Xie Yun as he bows low, and Zhou Fei looks up from where she is reading on the bed in her chambers. She is decked in full imperial robes, donned anew for their game this evening rather than kept on since the morning court session, and she skims her gaze idly up and down the flowy robes Xie Yun is wearing.
