a-yuan and lan jingyi over at jin ling's house: lan yuan standing up "i'll be back soon, i just need to take jingyi for a poop" jl frowns "that's disgusting, let him go to the bathroom alone" lan jingyi, face red "HE MEANS THE DOG, NOT ME!!!! why would you even think that!"

when a-yuan and lan jingyi move into their college dorm together "jingyi, can you come here a second to help me?" jingyi trots over "woof" a-yuan, used to this by now, sighs as he pets his dog "human jingyi" ljy jumps up in triumph "ha! he wants me, take that!" jingyi: 🐶🙄

when they meet oyyz for the first time: "jingyi really is the best boy! you're so lucky to have him" oyzz grins ljy with a stupid grin on his face "aww, you're so right. i remind him all the time!" oyzz frowning "i was talking about him" pointing at the dog jingyi: 🐶 ljy: 😑

"ugh, not again! why did you have to call him jingyi!" ljy pouts ly laughs "he's cute, it's a perfect name for him. now i think about it, your personalities are kind of similar. must be a jingyi thing" ljy splutters "did you just compare me to a DOG?" ly just shrugs "mn"

a year later, he is promoted to empress as lqy is deposed (her decision so she can be with concubine wq) their son a-yuan, the crown prince, is followed by daughter lan hua /end/ lwj and his harem of lesbians is my favourite thing ever 🤭🩷 it's lucky wy is there to knock up

two months later during the ceremony to officially make wy a concubine, wwx already has a small bump that lz can't keep his hands off the officials pretend not to notice the pregnancy, relieved there will finally be a heir

"then call me wei ying" "wei ying" he repeats, voice low, amused as he watches wy blush bright red wei wuxian's grin is teasing as he coyly asks "is the emperor going to breed this virgin?" lwj growls and does exactly that, not letting wy rest until the next morning

"come here" wwx doesn't hesitate, running & jumping into lwj's lap lwj's breath catches when he sees him up close. he is even more beautiful than lwj thought "your highness" wwx breathes out in awe "lan zhan" lwj corrects him, the smile he receives in return is blinding

his adviser stutters "o-of course not, your highness" no one else dares to object to lwj's selection, even madam yu who is furious that wwx was chosen over her own children it is not worth the emperor's wrath lwj dismisses everyone except wwx, who stands there, looking unsure

his advisor speaks up "your highness, wei wuxian is not part of the selection. he is just a servant" he doesn't miss how the man's face falls, either in embarrassment or shame lwj's glare has the man cowering in fear "just a servant? are you questioning my decisions?"
