Summary
He Xuan starts coughing so loudly and so violently that for a second Xie Lian loses track of reality, and thinks it was He Xuan who got buried under what feels like half a mountain, and not Xie Lian. It’s only as he tries to get up, alarmed, that the pain shoots through his body and reminds him why that would be a terrible idea. A grunt of pain must escape him, because He Xuan pushes him down again. This time, he leaves his hand on his shoulder, a constant reminder to “stay the fuck down, dianxia, fucking idiot.”
“You sounded like you were in pain. Are you sure you weren’t hurt in the collapse?”
“It really is very galling to be fretted upon by a man who is bleeding half of his intestines unto the floor.”
(or: Xie Lian and He Xuan end up trapped in a cave together, and Xie Lian won't stop saying upsetting things. It's probably the concussion.)

Summary
Maybe Xie Daozhang had just found himself momentarily disillusioned with his husband, led astray by this gorgeous and enigmatic older man who had no doubt been poisoning his mind with honeyed words and sweeter promises.
Maybe Xie Daozhang was confused, currently at a standstill where he couldn’t decide which of the two men he wanted to pick. Only he could decide for himself, but Mei Ying and the others could still remind him of what he stood to lose, should he choose the homewrecker.
In which people mistakenly assume that Xie Lian is cheating on his husband, even though he really, really isn't!!!

Summary
He sees a kind smile on those beautiful lips, sees it fade into opened mouthed shock as their eyes meet. The priest, who isn’t really a priest at all, stumbles sideways and clutches the doorframe for support. Wu Ming is hardly in better shape. His whole body is shaking and his legs tremble beneath him, but that’s fine. He doesn’t need to stand.
There in the doorway of the little shrine Wu Ming drops to one knee and bows his head before the only person to whom Wu Ming will ever bow.
“Your highness...”
OR: Hua Cheng is amnesiaed back into Wu Ming mid series, before Xie Lian has any idea that the ghost king he's falling for is really the ghost solder he's been mourning for the last 800 years. What follows is hard on them both.

Summary
The last thing Wu Ming remembers is being ripped apart by vengeful spirits.
The first thing he sees is his god's smile.
