Court Lady Episode 2

Anxious for more!

This is the first training arc for our boy, Chu Mu! I love how the story is developing so far, the pacing is great, with problems being introduced and resolved at just the right time.The only thing that worries me a little is that Fu Rou is apparently falling in love with this false persona that Chu Mu is creating, and not with who he really is, and this lie is too big to sustain (and a relationship based on a lie like that can never be healthy), so I fear that she will eventually find out and be even more hurt.On a positive note, it seems that Chu Mu is taking his future more seriously and (perhaps) his feelings for Fu Rou, but this remains to be seen.Three details I really liked in this episode were: the conflict between the second lady and Fu Rou being resolved in a very amicable way, without either party committing any truly malicious acts, just some minor disagreements, which I find more realistic and pleasant; Fu Tao's attitude towards Chu Mu, who proved to be much more friendly and understanding of his advances towards his sister; and finally, I'm really invested in the difficulties faced by Lady Cheng and her husband in caring for Chu Mu.
