    Summary

    Nie Mingjue has never had any penchant for drama, for the artful irony of things that Huaisang and both his sworn brothers seem to relish from songs and writings of long-dead poets. But he knows enough to find it an amusing irony that his wish to spare Xichen the suddenness of his death had instead spared him from dying a betrayed man.

    Or, Nie Mingjue plans revenge on his sworn brothers, and beds the Yiling Patriarch in the process.

    Summary

    "Ascend," Wei Wuxian whispered to Lan Wangji. His husband’s shining tears dripped over their hands. "It might take awhile, but the pain of my passing will eventually fade. Ascend, and forget about me."

    "No," Lan Wangji said, resolute. "I will never forget Wei Ying. Not in this lifetime, or any other lifetime. Together, forever, or none at all."

    "Play me our song," Wei Wuxian responded, eyes closed.

    It was absolutely amazing. I loved how the writer had showcased how powerful Lan Wangji and Wei Wuxian are. It was so gratifying to read. I can oly hope that the writer would be kind enough to finish it, I am so curious to know what happens next.

    Summary

    In the end, it had been the Yiling Patriarch’s stratagems and his fierce fighting which had turned the tide of the war. He had killed both Wen Ruohan’s sons, and floored the traitor so that Meng Yao could strike the final blow. His status as the strongest warrior on the field had been undeniable.

    Thus, the offer extended to him by the Lan court. Take his place as the Emperor’s consort, the only one permitted to lay hands upon the Emperor, the only one to share his bed with him while he sleeps, unaware and vulnerable. His last, best line of defense.

    Or: Forced by his court to accept a consort, Lan Wangji is certain he has seen enough of the so-called Yiling Patriarch to know what he's getting: an uncouth ruffian. Slowly, he begins to realise that even an emperor's assumptions can be misplaced.

    I skipped some sex scenes but the writing was extraordinary. I loved how it showed Wei Wuxian's brilliance even in politics. Specially, Wei Wuxian outwitting Jin Guangyao with just his words in the last scene was marvelous. I always wished for a fic where Wei Wuxian outsmarts Jin Guangyao with just his wits, it was so satisfying.

    Summary

    Wei Wuxian was tinkering with a new talisman just before he went to bed with his husband. When he opened his eyes, he finds himself a few decades younger, standing on the roof of Cloud Recesses with a jar of Emporor's Smile in his hand. He turns to his right and sees an equally confused, equally young Lan Wangji halfway into drawing out his sword.

    --

    Or, WWX and LWJ accidentally travel back in time, attempt to save everyone, and try to convince the Lan Clan elders to let them marry early. The last one goes about as well as they thought it would.

    Summary

    He has almost fallen into an exhausted sleep when he hears a twig snap.

    Wei Ying could cry again.

    Instead, he says, spent: "Please return another day to smite the Yiling Patriarch, who is currently indisposed. I can schedule you for tomorrow midday."
