    Summary

    Wen Ruohan was not a sentimental person. 

     But neither had he ever intended to be a bloodthirsty tyrant as he became, something he didn’t realize until after he’s dead. Watching his headless body fall to the ground, and the dark satisfaction in Meng Yao’s eyes, was a very strange experience for him. As was the celebration that followed.

     This was the first time he noticed him really. A dark shape over in the corner with a jar of wine in his hand. Near the celebration, but not part of it. Wei Wuxian, the YiLing Patriarch.

     Gods, he’s so young.

    Summary

    Everyone knows that Wei Wuxian died before the Sunshot Campaign even began.

    Everyone knows that the Yiling Patriarch is a huli jing, a trickster fox spirit, that practices demonic cultivation for nefarious purposes.

    Everyone knows that there’s no way a righteous sect, let alone the hidebound Lan sect, would accept the Yiling Patriarch into their clan.

    ...Everyone is wrong.

    Or, when the notorious Yiling Patriarch marries Hanguang Jun to save the Wens, nothing in the cultivation world will ever be the same again.

    Summary

    It turned out that all Meng Yao had to do to turn his fortunes in life around was find a beautiful man in a ditch, save his life by wagering his own cultivation, and allow everyone to assume they were legitimately married.

    (or: Meng Yao vs every single marriage-related trope: FIGHT.)

    Summary

    Lan Zhan dies two years before canon and promptly wakes up in the library at Cloud Recesses right across from Wei Wuxian, napping facedown in a pile of copywork.

    He has a lot of questions. Is this the afterlife? If it's not, then is he alone with his memories? And most importantly, what does he need to do to keep his soulmate alive this time?

     

    Wei Ying did not stir as he knelt down by the desk. It had been so long since Lan Zhan had seen those beloved features and even longer since he’d been allowed to either get or stay this close to Wei Ying.

     

    He looked so different from Lan Zhan’s memories; apple cheeked, clean, and relaxed.

     

    Lan Zhan clamped both hands over his own mouth to stop the pained noise that threatened to escape him. Hot tears spilled down his face as he watched the young, safe, and whole boy sleep. His stomach cramped with the effort of holding the sound in, but he’d sooner die than wake Wei Ying up.

    Summary

    In a world where magic is in decline, huli jing Wei Wuxian's sole goal is repaying debt his family owes the Jiangs. Something he’d failed at so far. At least this time he can blame the Emperor himself.
    Lan Tradition holds that Emperors cannot publicly appear until they’ve found their mate, so a kingdom wide search is held. And Wei Wuxian qualifies to be a candidate! Locked in the palace, Wei Wuxian must find a way to get kicked out before his one night with the Emperor. Something that would be easier if it wasn’t for the Captain of the Guard Lan Zhan foiling his every move.
