Hi there! I was wondering if you could explain "只羡忘羡不羡仙" from mdzs! 🥺 Thank you!
Hi hi! "只羡忘羡不羡仙" (zhi xian Wangxian bu xian xian) is a popular catchphrase in the Chinese fandom, it is based on the expression "只羡鸳鸯不羡仙" (zhi xian yuan yang bu xian xian), from《长安古意》(Chang’an nostalgia) by Tang poet Lu Zhaolin. It means literally “be envious of lovebirds, not of immortals”, except that lovebirds (鸳鸯 is actually mandarin duck, it shares the same connotation of an affectionate couple) is replaced with Wangxian in the fandom phrase. It is also the same xian that is used in Wei Wuxian’s name for “envy/envious”. It basically means that leading a mortal life with the person you love at your side is much more desirable than living forever.
This poetic line also appears in the lyrics of 《月满襟》, a Lan Wangji fansong by Wu En who also sang for the audio drama version of Wangxian =)

LET’S TALK ABOUT HAN GUANG JUN’S FAVORITE INSTRUMENT, THE GUQIN (his qin is also aptly named Wang Ji lolol ugh I don’t know what do with you silly boy)
1. 鸥鹭忘机 Ou Lu Wang Ji
Did you know there is a famous guqin piece with LWJ’s name in it?
The title comes from a fable in the ancient text of LieZi. The story tells of a man who often played with seabirds and they would gather by him without fear. One day, the man is asked by his father to catch some of those birds and take them home. The man tried to approach the birds next day, but the birds never flew near him again.
It hearkens back to the Taoist principle of harboring no ulterior motives, to not let yourself be carried away by worldly affairs, which is what his name reflects.
2. The Four Arts
Guqin is THE Chinese instrument when we talk about instruments that embody the history of China. Yeah I’m slightly biased because I play it, but I’ll leave you to read Wikipedia to get a sense of guqin’s long, extensive history that dates back centuries. The concept of the Four Arts - essentially, things Chinese scholars had to be accomplished at - goes, 琴棋书画, specifically the guqin, Go, calligraphy and painting. It is a symbol of culture, of self-cultivation and reflection - all of the things that LWJ excels at.
3. Guqin as a solo instrument
When it comes to playing, the guqin is not meant to be a loud instrument (a blessing for apartment dwellers hello) and there’s a saying that goes,
古琴悦己，古筝悦人
“The guqin is played to please oneself, the guzheng is played to please others“
(Incidentally the guzheng is a really cool instrument akdasjfl;awer I was so close to picking the guzheng over the guqin and even now I still think people look cooler playing it but I just love the sound of the guqin so that can’t be helped.)
The guqin is usually played alone, because it is easily overpowered by other louder instruments. Funnily enough, guess what one of the most common accompanying instruments is for the guqin in a duet? It’s a xiao 箫, a type of flute. It’s both a nod to LXC (who plays the xiao) and WWX (who plays a regular dizi).
4. How guqin is played
Guqin pieces have a slow, meditative, somewhat sad quality to them. You’re not going to find Flight of the Bumblebee transcribed for the guqin - that’s just not really how the instrument is meant to be played. Guqin is all about the minute movements and timing - too early or too late, too much or too little glissando and you will never be able to produce the same feeling that the piece is trying to evoke, no matter how accurate your notes are. Technique for the guqin isn’t about how fast or complicated the notes are, it’s about that one split second when you know just how much pressure to exert on your left thumb to produce the perfect yin or nao. Even so, the 7-string guqin is able to cover a full 4 octaves, just like its 21-string guzheng cousin. So playing it looks very easy, but like all instruments, achieving good results takes a lot of practice.
It’s not an instrument you can really wow people with because it’s so subtle, and in a way, I think that’s so befitting of exactly who LWJ is. He is never showy, always withdrawn and somewhat sorrowful (WWX constantly mentions how LWJ gives off the air of mourning lol), but underneath all the barely noticeable expressions lies a man adrift in a storm of emotions.

you heard of the academic icarus, now get ready for:
Academic Achilleus: your argument is pretty indisputable and strong- except for that one weak spot that could take it (and you) to the grave.
Academic Ulysses: you are soooo close to your conclusion but somehow something always leads you astray. you have been writing this paper for what feels like 10 years. the gods are against you
Academic Sisyphus: You have deleted and rewritten this paragraph numerous times. it still does not work out. you delete it again.

When our heroic duo needs to get to where the chaos is, and get there quickly, riding on a donkey is not an option.
That's when the famous Lan strength comes to the rescue and leaves no one behind!
(Please take a moment to consider that Lan Wangji has Wei Wuxian's ass on both sides)
