    Summary

    “Your highness,” Hua Cheng sounded pained, and it made him chuckle, although he did feel bad for teasing him. “Really, I−I was careless with my words.”

    “No, no,” Xie Lian shook his head, biting the inside of his cheek, “if San Lang was careless, then what would you have called me?” He raised his head, only the slightest bit, meeting the other’s gaze under the safe haven of his lashes, not wanting to fully commit, lest the moment breaks. “I almost said yes, after all.”

    (Fix-it proposal scene!)

    Summary

    Xie Lian immediately thought of a playful smile, dark eye and wild unbound hair. Thought of crimson robes, a ribbon tight around a finger, and an unending patience as he tilted his head and listened and listened.

    Just a few days−and how he missed Hua Cheng already. Ever since the other had come to his life, it somehow made everything easier. Nothing in Xie Lian’s routine particularly changed, despite his ascension. Except for missions being added in the mix, his terrible luck and simple ambitions remained.

    And yet, somehow, the weight of all of them seemed like such a doable and imaginary thing.

    But Hua Cheng had a beloved.

    (or: Xie Lian rescues a water spirit, gets advice and a nudge, and gets beyond what he could have imagined.)

    Summary

    Mu Qing has to send a clone down to answer a prayer and it runs into a long forgotten crown prince.

    This is just a silly little story about Xie Lian and Mu Qing meeting by accident about 200 years into Xie Lian's banishment.

    It involves a stolen spiritual item, an ugly dog, and several rogue clones.

    Remember when Xie Lian mentioned not recognizing Mu Qing's voice because he hadn’t seen him in ‘five or six hundred years’? This is that time!

     

    This story is for @Ameji’s TGCF Clone Week, and each chapter (day) follows as many of the prompts as I can manage to get in there. There are clones, but I will not /exactly/ be using these prompts for their intended clone-related purpose jsyk lmao. At least not all of them. Honestly, I have no idea what I was doing with this.

    Summary

    Ever wonder what was going on in Hua Cheng’s mind the day Xie Lian ascended for the 3rd time? Of course you do. We all do. But sadly MXTX won’t tell us and we just have to imagine for ourselves.

    This fic follows Hua Cheng’s point of view from Xie Lian’s ascension up through their first sleepover at Puqi Shrine. It includes what Hua Cheng might have been doing just off screen, waiting for those perfect moments to reveal himself, and what he was thinking during their first conversation in eight hundred years.

    This fic details three “chance” encounters with His Highness: once as a butterfly, once in his true form, and once as ‘San Lang’.

    Summary

    "San Lang seems tense, is anything the matter?", Xie Lian asked, still focused on his writing.

    "Gege looks beautiful" A chuckle escapes Xie Lian on hearing this, "If San Lang thinks he can sway my mind with such simple tricks, I can tell him that it won't work"

    Or

    Xie Lian is dead set on making Hua Cheng practice his calligraphy and Hua Cheng has tricks up his sleeves to distract him (and Xie Lian doesn't mind)

    Summary

    San Lang smiled and replied, "Do you want to tell my fortune?"

    "Yeah... a little," Xie Lian admitted.

    San Lang lightly nodded his head, "Alright."

    He sat up, moving in front of Xie Lian so they were facing each other, "How are you going to do it?"

    Xie Lian replied, "Palm reading. Is that alright?"

     

    Having studied on his own about the subject, Xie Lian is able to read San Lang's palm.

    Summary

    Hua Cheng finds himself in an illusion, but everything seems real. He meets a broken Xie Lian, with no will to live and rage boiling inside of him, and even if all of it is not real, Hua Cheng decides that this time he has no excuses not to save his Dianxia.

     

    Inspired by the mdzs incense burner special, Hua Cheng conscience is post-canon while Xie Lian is from book 4.

    Summary

    Feng Xin took another deep breath, his gaze drifting toward the grassy expanse of the mountain. The colorful reeds swayed gently in the wind, their delicate fronds bending, testing their limits against the breeze.

    ...

    “It’s good to see you so happy. It’s what you deserve, after everything,” Feng Xin spoke quietly.

    Time may have changed many things, but as Feng Xin reminisces about the past, he realizes some moments (and some people) remain timeless.

    Summary

    A soft chuckle escaped him, his left eye still shining. “Though I don’t mind if gege calls me his gege either.”

    Xie Lian didn't know whether to laugh or cry. I know just how well you don't mind…

    Or: Xie Lian accidentally finds himself flung back in time, and the first thing he does is flirt with his husband. Who's currently not yet his husband, but hey, those are just technicalities.

    Summary

    Xie lian travels in time and loses part of his memory in the process. He recalls a young boy from a distant past he doesn't have the strength to remember.

    "The former prince whose lost all his glory" was a sentence he himself could eat for breakfast, given the amount of times he's heard it, but to return to a memory so vivid was another matter. When he returns to the present time, Xie Lian's memory has not fully returned.

    The man who'd never expected anyone to be able to embrace him, neither because they could nor wanted to, finds himself in the arms of another, a mysterious fellow adorned in crimson red.

    Summary

    “My name is Xie Lian. You are?”

    The three year old child responded nervously, “...Yongrui.”

    Xie Lian smiled to lighten the mood. “Yongrui? How sweet! See, San Lang? His parents even named him `forever luckyʼ so how could he be abandoned?” 

    Hua Cheng continued to wear the same suspicious stare he had since earlier, “That weʼll find out. What’s your family name?”

    “Xie.” 

    Xie Yongrui accidentally gets sucked inside a mysterious mirror during hide and seek with Shi Qingxuan. When he opens his eyes again, he found himself in an unfamiliar house. Luckily his baba (Xie Lian) was there! But for some reason he doesn't recognize him and the other gege who resembles his a-die (Hua Cheng) was kind of scary but nice!

    Summary

    Yin Yu was sent out to pick up flowers for Hua Cheng's painting project. He never thought that such a routine, easy mission could end with him being kidnapped by a cult and selected to become a sacrificial offering for the martial god of the West, and then escaping with people he least had expected to meet that day.

    And that was just the beginning.
