So I started watching The Disguiser yesterday, because it's basically the NiF cast in an AU setting (reincarnation fix-it, anyone? Except I'm pretty sure this show's gonna end in heartbreak too).
Anyway, I'm only a couple of episodes in, but this very much feels like it could be a reincarnation AU in which Consort Jing and Lin Chen are siblings and Consort Jing finds her two sons in this life and is taking care of them here too. (They adopt MCS after his mother dies and later take in Xiao Jingyan.) MCS is the youngest child of the family and a prodigy and they all dote on him. They try to keep him out of political schemings by sending him off to university to finish his studies and follow the path of a scholar (which, minor spoiler: it doesn't work).
Other people who are also here: Qin Banrou and Xie Yu.
( Spoilers for the first 10 minutes of episode 1 )
