上穷碧落下黄泉. It’s really flowery and I want everyone to read it, but it’s really just me nerding out from google. 

From the jade sky to the yellow springs

The first layer of heaven is like the sky is tinted in jade, so it’s called jade sky. As explained before, the yellow springs is the chinese mythology of hell. There’s actually a long verse for this, but the direct continuation is kinda sad. It continues as ‘Both of them will never meet, in any and every case’. The story is how an emperor, after his lover passed away, he searched for her from heaven to hell, but unfortunately, fate decreed that they’ll never meet.

  1. Thanks for the chapter! Yu Tang might never completely come to terms with how Song Xiao died in their previous life, but I have to admit his rough treatment of his younger brother makes me want to smack him. Having said that, Song Xiao’s point about an adult mind in a baby’s body with split pants and a bare butt made me laugh.

    • instead of coming to terms, i think it’s more like he doesn’t believe that song xiao died for love. he thinks that song xiao died only because he was listening to the emperor’s orders, and now feels guilty about it. Thanks for reading!!

  2. QAQ thanks for the great translation.

    I like it when you nerd out. *puts on glasses* I learn so much more about chinese culture and lit poetry.

  3. Oh god how could the little brother turn out to be so loose 🙈 36 concubines! 36! That’s his most foolish thing he did. Little baby don’t be a slag when you grow up.

    Seriously the book with the book is giving me feels. It’s like their honest thoughts being revealed.
