“how can i still yearn to touch the fleeting trace of your lingering warmth?“

Meet You At The Blossom

[scarefox]

Ok, here's the start of my Huaien x Xiaobao playlist, I will still edit this for a while

Not that easy to unite Xiaobao puppy brain vs cursed feral vibes from Huaien. Also attempted to include more songs in chinese too but that's even harder (mainly because language barrier... the songs that are in I just hope the lyrics fit somehow lol)

It's both POV.

Me putting songs in this playlist:

Meet You at the Blossom Ep 1 Stray Thoughts

An uncensored Chinese BL is possible, it seems. We just need to use actors and directors from Taiwan, and get Thailand to fund it. Let’s see how it goes.

Oh, right, a costume drama. We gotta give us the background info right away. Let me get these details down: The last emperor wasn’t very good at management, the courtiers appointed Crown Prince Zongzheng Yunlian to the throne because he was healthy and seemingly good at the job, but the second song Zongzheng Yuzhan was a jealous hater and insurrectionist. Yunlian got rid of Yunzhan’s title and wealth, and then exiled that mofo. The realm then enters an era of internal prosperity and stability after ousting foreign factions.

Damn, we’re opening with (attempted) child murder and a time skip. Expected.

Is our protagonist a propagandist and a playboy? How fun.

Seems our other lead is involved in some form of espionage in opposition to the ruling party of the opening narration.

I love the guards having a totally reasonable reaction to seeing someone getting jumped in the woods at night: Whoever she is, she’s probably involved in some bullshit that’s going to cause problems for us.

It wouldn’t be a costume drama if a doctor wasn’t being constantly threatened with death.

I love that Zheng Huaien isn’t even working that hard on this seduction. Jin is just that into it.

Okay, the dad calling Xiaobao on his bullshit right away is fun.

I'm enjoying how unfazed Huaien is by all of this.

Gender is a performance, and Huaien is winning.

This prince Shen is rude.

Jin Xiaobao is kind of a dumbass. I love him tossing medicine to this stranger and then running away.

Okay, 1 point for the goofball.

Now why dose them with an aphrodisiac, you weirdos?

I had enough amusement in this first episode to continue. It's fun having such a ridiculous protagonist. The ones I usually encounter are super competent.

[welcometothejianghu]

Once again, I am looking respectfully at pictures of actors from a costume drama -- in this case, Meet You at the Blossom -- without their costumes!

Wang Yunkai (Jin Xiaobao)

Li Le (Zongzheng Huaien) (who gets extra pictures because there's comparatively so many of him to choose from)

Li Junliang (Su Yin)

Kou Weilong (Que Siming)

Li Yimu (Jinbao)

Wang Qi Qi/Achi/Sukonlaphat Sribubpha (Zongzheng Shaoyu)

Song Jia Xi (Zhao Cai)

[bl-is-totes-my-jam]

Everytime Huaien tries to deny that he's fallen for Xiaobao, the song "I Wont Say Im in Love" from Hercules pops into my head xD

[no-sh1t-sherly]

does anyone else feel like Mercy by Shawn Mendes is so insanely huaibao coded? from huaien and xiaobao’s different perspectives?? this whole song could be just huaien and xiaobao yelling at each other 😂

[piningintrovert]

Song Su Yin is blasting in his rooms when Huaien is around

[hulijingemperor2]

I have exceeded my word limit for tumblr, so I have to post this chapter in parts■■■■ this is part 1

Yao : Xiaobao, Xiaoyu, this is your Nainai. 

Xiaobao: hey, Nainai.

Meng Shi: hi baby. *strokes his hair* you're so energetic, like A-Song. 

And you look so much like Lingling. 

Taihua: *shyly hugging Meng Shi's leg*

Xiaobao: Lingling?

Meng Shi: your biological grandma. 

Xiaobao: oh! 

Meng Shi: I'm so happy to have you. 

Your Meng genes are showing.

Xiaobao, this is my personal maid, sister figure and confidante, Sisi. 

Xiaobao: Sisi? That reminds me of when I went to Yucui building. There was someone named Sisi. 

Zhaocai: *face palms*

Sisi: isn't that a brothel in Huaizhou?

Meng Shi: you went to a brothel? 

Xiaobao: yea, I used to. 

Yao: Xiaobao, that's strictly prohibited. 

Huaizhou isn't a part of my empire, but still.

Xiaobao: ok A-Die, I won't do it again.

Yet one time I had saved a woman from being mistreated, so you should give me some credit! 

Yao: how virtuous! You're definitely my son. 

Qin Su: that's really heroic of you. 

Your A-Die had banned exploitation of women, then he let them get proper jobs. 

Equal to men. 

Xiaobao: A-Die is an amazing emperor indeed. 

Why don't you add Huaizhou? 

Yao: because it's owned by another emperor.

Huaien's dad.

And I don't think there are fox spirits there. 

Xiaobao: oh.

Yao: I own Annan though.

Meng Shi: mn. 

Babies, meet Huahua. 

*sits and put taihua on her lap* 

Xiaobao: hii taihua. I'm your new brother.

Call me, San ge.

Taihua: San ge. You look very fun.

Xiaobao: of course I am!

Taihua: are you going to be cool with Song gege? 

Xiaobao: yup. 

This is Xiaoyu, your big sis.

Taihua: oh waw! Hey Xiaoyu. 

Xiaoyu: you're a princess?

Taihua: mhm. 

Xiaoyu: I'm one too! 

And don't worry, Hua. I'll share my toys with you. 

Taihua: and I'll share mine with you too! But dont touch my gifts that Song gege gave me. 

Xiaoyu: I understand. I'm close to my gege too!

Wen Ruohan: *enters* Yao'er. So this is your adopted son with Meng blood. 

Xiaoyu: *scared* Nainai.

Meng Shi: he won't hurt you, dear.

Taihua: that's just yeye.

Yao: yes A-Die, isn't he lovely? 

Xiaobao: no offense, but you look so scary. 

Wen Ruohan: offense? That's a compliment. 

I'm Wen Ruohan, the former Wen sect leader! But now I'm Meng Shi's concubine.

Xiaobao: you're my yeye then?? So cool!

Wen Ruohan: yup. 

I'm only scary towards Yao'er's concubines.

Xue yang: no you're not.

Wen Ruohan: xue gui fei, would you mind.

Xiaobao: xue gui fei?

Yao: ah, now to introduce you to team dimple.

This is Xue yang, Xue gui fei.

Xue yang: 'sup.

Xiaobao: are you a relative of Xiaoyu? Her name is supposed to be xue lianqing, but she lost her memory for a while and we adopted her.

Xue yang: I don't really know actually. 

I grew up on the streets in Kuizhou.

Xiaobao: oh, how tragic. 

Xiaoyu's entire clan was massacred. And my family were good friends with the xues.

Xue yang: huh. What a surprise to see a fellow xue. 

Jiggy, I made her! Just for you. Just for you Jiggy.

Yao: *laughing* yangyang, this is not the time. 

Xue yang:  then when is the time, Jiggy. 

*hugs* Jiggy, I love you.

Rusong: you'll get used to it.

Xiaobao: team dimple is something else! I could look at them and laugh all day.

Mo xuanyu: Xiaobao, you're just like Yao gege! Fabulous as always. 

I'm your uncle mo, and I can give you a makeover if you like.

Xiaobao: I'll keep that in mind.

Su she: well you know me already. And Suyin is my cousin and head member of the Moling Su sect.

Xiaobao: yea. I'm a little familiar with you.

Suyin: Minshan. *points to Xichen* is that the Lan Zhan who gave you hard time? I'll give him a piece of my mind.

Su she: no no, that's his brother, Lan lips. 

Suyin: what? Lan. Lips is his name? 

Su she: it's actually Lan Xichen. But he's just as irritating. He always takes up Huangdi's attention.

Suyin: but Huangdi belongs to team dimple, well  it's the other way around.

Anyways I want to meet Lan zhan.

Meng Shi: oh Suyin, why do you want to see whiny zhan? There's nothing interesting about him.

Suyin: taihou, I hated how he treated Minshan, as well as Yao Huangdi. So I want to beat him up.

Meng Shi: oh my. 

You're a lot like your cousin. 

Xichen: ah, Taihou. You see I just mind my business 

Xiaobao, welcome to the family. I'm Lan Xichen.

Xiaobao: hey. Nice to meet you. You know Huaien can pass as a Lan sect member.

He's gorgeous too.

Xichen: that's right. He's very goodlooking and elegant.

But he seems shy.

Xiaobao: he'll open up soon. 

Xichen: I'm an introvert whisperer.

Huaisang: hey Xiaobao. So you're a Meng? That is really interesting.

Xiaobao: yea, and I'm happy I'm here.

I'm glad that the Meng dynasty is progressing. 

Huaisang: I'm happy too.

Mo xuanyu: Huaisang was shady. Like really shady. 

But he's afraid of Wen Ruohan so. 

Huaisang: xuanyu shhh!! I don't know anything at all.

Mo xuanyu: Huaisang, you know I'll call you out. Team d is the most real people you can meet.

And Xiaobao needs to know. 

Xiaobao: A-Die sure has some dramatic  people in his harem. Guess he's never bored.

Yao: you're right.

Mingjue: I'm nie Mingjue. Huaisang's elder brother.

Jiang cheng: and I'm Jiang cheng.

Xiaobao: ah, cool. Nice to meet you. 

Yao: I'm so glad you met everyone, dear.

Now time to unlock your hulijing attributes. 

Can you please kneel. 

Xiaobao: yea *kneels*

Team dimple: *kneels* 

Yao: not you, team dimple. 

Rusong: team d, can you simp a little later? 

Xiaobao: *closes eyes* 

Yao: *rests his thumb on Xiaobao's chest* 

Thereafter, his fox tail and ears appeared.

Yao: there you go.

Xiaobao: wooohoo!! I'm a fox!! I'm a hulijing! I'm so happy, A-Die! Huaien, look!

Do I look cute?

Huaien: *caresses his cheek* very cute* 

Xiaobao: heehee.

Rusong: you look fabulous. 

Xiaobao: thank you Rusong gege!

Xiaoyu: gege, can I touch your hulijing tail? 

Xiaobao: sure! 

Meng Shi: this is pure happiness, Yao'er. 

Yao: isn't it precious. *smile* 

Meng shi: he deserves all the love. 

Yao: definitely. *signals an attendant, who brought a tray with a golden hairpiece (guan) with a jade hairpin, a ceal and a couple of valuable gifts. 

Xiaobao: are these for me? 

Yao: all for you! Then I'll gift Xiaoyu something. 

*puts the guan in his hair* you're officially a Meng Dianxia, so you deserve a guan. 

I'll design you guans to look like the golden hairpieces you wear on a daily basis. 

I figured you like that style.

Xiaobao: thank you! But this one is beautiful too! 

Yao: this is your Dianxia ceal. And these are just boxes of precious gems, gold and ornaments. 

Xiaobao: I love that!! 

Yao: I have already commissioned clothes and jewelry for you and Xiaoyu, as well as these beautiful outfits for tomorrow. 

Xiaobao: tomorrow? Is there any event?

Yao: of course there is. I'm hosting a party for you. 

Everyone must know that you're a part of the Meng family.

Xiaobao: I can't wait! 

Jingyi: A-Die's parties are always the best.

Rusong: yea. Last time we got a chocolate fountain.

Xiaobao: REALLTY??? I heard that's really exotic! 

Rusong: Nothings really exotic when it comes to A-Die. 

Jingyi: remember when xue yang got a sugar rush?!

Rusong: oh gosh *laughing* he was bouncing off the walls.

Jingyi: we should ban him from the chocolate fountain.

Xue yang: oh you try! 

Xiaobao: why is he like this.

Rusong: he has a crazy sweet tooth. And A-Die always gives him candy. 

But it's just a coping mechanism and the childhood trauma. 

You recognize his broken finger?

Xiaobao: no? 

I thought he just liked fancy gloves to be honest.

Rusong: some idiot rolled over his hand and broke his finger, when he wanted candy. 

Xiaobao: that's so cruel. 

Xiaoyu: *thugs on his sleeve* Huangdi diedie. What are you going to gift me? 

Yao: well dear *lifts her up* All Meng ladies deserve Meng jewelry. 

Qin Su: here you go, baby. *puts a bracelet on her hand* You're also a Meng now. 

Xiaoyu: oooo shiney. Thank you A-niang! 

Qin Su: now you and Hua can match.

Yao: amazing..

Xiaobao, do you have a sword? Do you know how to play any instrument?

Xiaobao: yea I have a sword but I'm bad at swordfighting. It's not really my thing.

Yao: that's fine. I won't force you then. 

But if you wish to learn, I'll teach you. 

Xiaobao: thank you! Can you teach me music?! 

Yao: of course. We're a musical family, so you must.

Li Le's message on Weibo (translated by xiaoqiaoo_)

After a long time, I’ve decided to share a few thoughts from my heart.

I’m not very good at expressing myself, so I decided to write a letter to open up to everyone. Honestly, being part of Blossom has been a story of redemption for me.

In 2022, I was still working for an internet company as an advertising planner. By chance, I became an actor. After that, I started filming some small web dramas, but to my surprise, the first drama I appeared in sparked a lot of controversy.

Because of the negative reception, I was met with a period of six months where I had no roles to play. As my confidence and the light in my heart faded with each passing day, I encountered Blossom.

Initially, I auditioned for the role of Su Yin, but after meeting me, the producer asked me to try out for Huaien instead and gave me positive feedback on my audition! More importantly, I was deeply drawn to Huaien—a man yearning for freedom and love but also tightly shackled and restrained. My instincts told me: I have to seize this chance!

To immerse myself in Huaien’s isolated and helpless inner world, I locked myself in a room, trying to experience his profound loneliness and despair, like a boat adrift with no anchor.

Although filming was incredibly challenging, I thoroughly enjoyed it. Bringing Huaien to life from the script, turning him into a real, living, breathing, flesh-and-blood person, gave me a deep sense of purpose.

Everyone has many sides to themselves. I have my own side that’s insecure and sensitive. Before the show aired, I was anxious. But I want to thank all of you who came to my side, giving me encouragement, support, and love. As the song Unafraid of the Long Night goes, I caught a fleeting glimpse of starlight through the cracks, and just like Huaien, I will try to hold onto that light tightly.

My journey with Zongzheng Huaien may have come to an end, but the spiritual nourishment he has given me will last for a lifetime.

If possible, let’s continue forward together. Together through day and night, as constant and enduring as the ever-present moon.

Such a nice profile 🖤

***

SONG HUAIEN???????????

ARE YOU KIDDING ME??? MONARCH INDUSTRY'S SONG HUAIEN??? 😍😍

REUNITED WITH ZHOU YIWEI???????? 🤯🤯

I AM LIVING!!!!!!!

***

LMAO, I always feel so bad for these high-ranked courtiers in c-dramas who are actually intelligent, principled and responsible for having to deal with the Imperial family and all their bullshit.

***

Ooh, he is digging his own grave!

I don't know much about Chinese history but I have heard enough of this woman to know she will eat her enemies for breakfast.

***

Ah, so this is what a lotus pond in front of a residence looks like.

I always think of the Red Lotus Pavillion. However, this doesn't look like a great place to bathe in and now I'm... concerned 🤔

***

He Dajing gets more and more suspicious by the minute 🤔

***

He has the biggest, most serene eyes I've ever seen on a man 😭😭

The effect they have on me is hypnotic.

***

LMAO, stealing is not the issue, but stealing stuff that isn't valuable is the problem! 🤣🤣

I love these two 🖤

***

LMAO, you mean the Biluo you stole with your own hands 😂

***

Yeah, this liveblog is just going to be screenshots of his face 🖤🖤

No, I am not going to apologise.

***

Like... 😋

***

And more 😋

***

I should do a rewatch of all his scenes in Monarch Industry and The Longest Day in Chang'an just to get close-ups of his face 🖤

***

Ah. So not farmers.

Let's hope that one he solves this case, the Empress will give him a job.

Judge Dee's Mystery

Now that Minglan has reached its natural mid-point conclusion, I can press pause for a while and focus on my true hyperfixation!

JUDGE DI, HERE I COME!! 😍😍

Unfortunately, this drama dropped just as Minglan was starting her revenge arc on Lin Qinshuang and I had to see that through before giving my FULL attention to Zhou Yiwei.

I am so READY to let this man melt my brain, it isn't even funny 😭😭

***

NOOOO, HE DIDN'T GET OUT!! 😱😱

Luckily, it is only the second episode and they cannot kill the main character in the second episode so I AM NOT GOING TO PANIC.

***

LOL, alive, but arrested. Again 🤣🤣

His poor mentor will bankrupt his entire bloodline bailing him out of jail before this drama is done 🤣🤣

***

LMAO, their faces 🤣🤣

There is no end to trouble with Huaiying 🤣🤣 But look on the bright side, at least the exam was yesterday and he showed up for it!!

***

Stupid hot, even with soot on his face 🔥🔥

***

Wait, his alcoholic buddy died??

***

I am getting Cheng Wendao flashbacks 🤣🤣

He also got himself into similar predicaments and made this same face 🤣🤣

***

The mentor is BEYOND pissed off 😅

***

Oh? Secretary General, you say? 👀

***

Ah, so he is dead.

Unless!! Unless he was the one who set the fire! And didn't kill Di Renjie because he couldn't bear to! Or because he is actually jealous and wants to set him up and ruin his reputation 🤔

***

LMAO, they put him on house arrest with a Ye Olden Times ankle bracelet 🤣🤣

With the trouble he gets himself into, Wei Wuji should keep him there permanently, even after the case is solved.

***

Wasn't the Emperor in the brothel that night too?

***

LMAO, the side-eye 🤣🤣

***

Adding to the collection of screenshots of his face 😋

***

And moar 😋

Also, this should teach you not to drink strange wine with strange women.

***

Ridiculous 😭😭
