Wasn’t that Xiao/Shao Shan* Yu?
I don’t think the attributed quote was real.
That doesn’t change the fact that the quote was originally attributed to Shan Yu by Shepherd Book, then by Niska, IIRC. If they exist in a fictional world, then attributing the fictional reference correctly only seems accurate. 🥴🖖🏽
