Now as he opened the manuscript it seemed he might finally have the rest of the story. -

Summary
"Mu Qing!" came Dianxia's sweet-sounding voice. "Where are you?" Hua Cheng's pulse sped up. His entire body was screaming for him to bolt down the stairs, flee as fast as he could. He could not be perceived. He would die if he were to be perceived. The soft steps, naked feet on tiles, came closer. Hua Cheng's ears were filled with rushing, his skin prickled all over. It was like tiny hands had grabbed his windpipe and were yanking it up and down. And then the prince came into view, wrapped in a bathrobe. His hair was out of its royal braid, hanging in loose black strands, stark against the white linen. He had the complexion of someone who had just walked out of a steam room, his cheeks and nose pink.
"Mu Qing, I want-" Dianxia said and turned his head, looking up at Hua Cheng and pausing.
Just like that, all the anxiety and fear drained out of Hua Cheng's body.
He could not recall why he had been so terrified. He felt good. Safe. Dianxia smiled and his cheeks dimpled. His smile was so wide it pushed into his eyes, almost making them squint. Hua Cheng realized nobody had ever looked at him like this.
"I know you!" Dianxia said. "You won't run again, will you?"

Summary
He Yu scoffed, “Xie Qingcheng. Isn’t this a bit much? My son will have hundreds of palace maids, all young and full of life, as pretty as flowers, serving him, dressing him, feeding him. Waiting on him day and night. What need does he have for you?”
The older man knelt, his inky hair a stark contrast against his jade face. His inner robes hugged his figure in such a way, it left He Yu’s throat dry and clouded his mind, like a fine vintage wine. The emperor smiled coquettishly, his eyes roving over his ex general’s body, “But, I am nothing if not generous. If General Xie enters my harem, and agrees to serve me as my concubine, this matter may be reconsidered.”
The youth’s words were laced with such ridicule, such venom, it was obvious to any with ears that the proposal was hardly a serious one. The youth had clearly meant to humiliate the ex general into silence. Xie Qingcheng was a man of pride and decorum after all.
But, much to his surprise, Xie Qingcheng, the man of pride and decorum, nodded in assent, “I’ll do it.”

Sing to me, O Muse, o’er the idyll and the strife of those that called themselves The Alastors of The Achaeans. Sing of the sun-drenched shores of Korkyra, the noble profile of Athens, and the black shores of Skythia. Sing of the hubris of he who would call himself Death, and how the gods would have their best see him fall. Sing of the last great triumph of heroes at the setting of the bronze sun, and the rise of this iron night. Sing of the boundless love of kings, of Antinous of Athens and Stephanos King of the Phaiakes, and what strength the love of heroes would mean for our world’s fate.

Summary
After returning from the burial mounds and while being hugged by Jiang Cheng, Wei Wuxian suddenly collapses. Instead of having a tense confrontation with Lan Wangji, the direction of this meeting now goes down a very different route.
--
In which Wei Wuxian gets the love and care he deserves and the war goes differently because of it. Canon divergence after Wen Zhuliu's death. Canon-typical violence, implied severe bodily harm / torture. Found Family and Yunmeng Sibling shenanigans. Of course there's also Wangxian.

Summary
Lan Wangji did not know how to conceal his interest, so he did not. He was sure that Wei-gongzi knew, his cheeks flushing, words stumbling whenever he caught the intensity of Lan Wangji's gaze.
Lan Wangji meets Yunmeng Jiang's Wei-gongzi during a nighthunt. Even if he had no interest in the cultivation competitions, Lan Wangji should have met Wei-gongzi during Gusu Lan's guest lectures earlier, or at least heard of his capabilities. The both of them travel together for a month, and Lan Wangji becomes sure that the kind, brave, and intelligent Wei Ze is his life's cultivation partner. -

Summary
Do not worry, xiongzhang. All is well.
Lan Xichen sighed.
It had been months since his younger brother entered the bridal palanquin and was flown to Burial Mound Palace to be the spouse of the famous Yiling Laozu. Since then, he hadn't seen his brother in person. He had heard many rumors about his brother's conditions inside the Yiling Laozu's Palace. Many were too outrageous to be true, but many were also too believable to be denied.
Today would be the first day of the Cultivator Conferences at the Koi Tower and he was told that Yiling Laozu and Hanguang-Jun had accepted the invitation to attend. Today he would prove whether those rumors were true.
