So I decided to write some prompts of the Moshang week, though I don't know if I'll do all the days. Anyways, this Hamhua fic idea takes place on the context pinned on my page, so remember to take a look ;)!
Hamhua's fic idea n°6: Moshang edition
Moshang Week 2025, Monday, September 22 (Purge)
Mobei-Jun is a king. He always knew he'll be a king, or he would die trying. That wasn't necessary, as he had a perfect kingmaker to get him to his rightful throne, and now he's a king.
A bored king with an empty palace.
Well, it is not really empty, of course: servants, furniture, guards, treasures, luxuries, insignificant things for a king like him, occupy his palace, filling every empty corner with their small and unworthy existence.
But Shang.Qing.hua is not here. The only worthy presence, the reason for his position as king, his kingmaker, his servant, his counselor, HIS QUEEN (well, he's still working on that), is not here. No. He's on that peak of his, on that stupid Sect that doesn't value him the way he does, overworking himself for fools that don't even dress him the way he deserves (Qinghua's refusal to use fancy clothes while he's in the Sect is irrelevant; they should persist, show him they care, spoil him and then show him off to the world), instead of being here, by his side, filling the emptiness of this boring palace with his presence, the only presence that makes him, the king, look unworthy in comparison.
If his Qinghua doesn't come to this king, then this king will go to his Qinghua.
—My king! —The An Ding Lord jumps off his seat and tries to run towards the demon, being stopped by the hand of a very tense Shen Qingqiu grabbing his arm.—Shen-shixiong!
—What... —Shen Jiu's stern voice flies through the room, like a dagger aimed at someone's throat. Specifically, certain demon king's throat— is the meaning of this invasion.
Mobei-Jun scans the room, noticing the tension and the number of people reunited, and realizes he just interrupted a Sect meeting. Perfect, then.
—Shang Qinghua must come with his king. —He stays on his place, knowing when and where he can get away with making sudden movements, and aware that this exact moment is not one of those times.
—Is that so? —The Qing Jing Lord pulls his logistics shidi back to his sit— And why, exactly, did his majesty think that Shang-shidi would go right away?
The demon king ignores the sharp tone laced on the cultivator's question and simply says:
—This king needs his servant.—
—I'm certain that his majesty must have more than one of those —Qi Qingqi joins the conversation, deciding to annoy this arrogant demon as much as she can.
—This king... —Mobei continues, the room's temperature slowly going down— also needs the assistance of his trusted counselor.
—Surely the Mobei Clan counts with lots of wise counselors and advisors. —Shen Jiu retorts, the laziness on his voice doing very little to hide the sharp edges of his answer.
—This king needs the presence of his right hand for important matters. —The demon's expression remains unreadable, but a little tic on his eye is enough for Shang Qinghua to start trying to get away of his Shixiong's grip.
—Surely the left one functions just as right. —The strategist doesn't give in.
—This kings demands his queen to return to his palace. —He finally blurts out. His tone keeps the same tune, but the silence that follows is definitely loud.
—Your... what? —Shen Qingqiu's head turns around so fast that Shang Qinghua could swear he would've done a perfect job acting in The Exorcist.— Explain. Now.
—I... I didn't... —The An Ding Lord doesn't know what to say. He IS NOT a queen, but he can't let his king look like a liar.
With everyone attention focused on his human, Mobei takes advantage of their distraction and runs towards Shang Qinghua. He swiftly opens a portal behind the cultivator, walks through it with him, and closes it before his martial siblings can have a chance to stop them.
His Qinghua is finally back home.
The palace is no longer empty. It is no longer missing its queen.
Not gonna lie, I could turn this into a one-shot or two-shot if university doesn't suck my soul this week. We'll see.
Also, I love writing from MBJ point of view because I'm absolutely sure he always thinks a lot more of what he says, especially when his Qinghua is around, and even more when he isn't.
Anyway, I hope you liked it, and feel free to use this idea on your own fics or any form of art! I'd love to see it!
