In episode 36 during the Empress's birthday banquet, for a change CSS was flirting with LBY for the first time "Drinking the wine I brew from your wine plate is more delicious". Aw~ CSS is gradually falling for LBY deeper and deeper. This gradual development is what makes this drama unique and one of a kind.
we had this discussion circa about a week before.my take was - heavenly emperor promised YY that he will retain…
I was late to the party. To me it seems like a plot device to push the relationship development between YD and YY in mortal realm. Has YY retained his memories when he met YD, I think he would have been a bit restrained. Without his memories from heaven realm, he is free to feel and explore the relationship with his new found travel companion.
You've conveyed what i gathered from the scene too. I find it fascinating watching WL and ZLS in this drama. Sometimes,…
In that same scene, LBY was taken aback with CSS answer and was trying to search for an honest answer through CSS's eyes. That subtle change in emotion is so good! You are right he can convey his emotions and thoughts through his eyes, manner and the tones of his speech. WL is such a talented actor. My heart broke seeing CSS cry her heart out. She always considers herself a strong and independent woman but at that moment she conveyed her vulnerability which it shows she trusts LBY that's why she didn't hold back to reveal that side of her. ZLS keeps surprising me. She keeps getting better and better with her acting. CSS character gives her a lot of opportunities to challenge herself and explore her talent as an actor.
I rewatched episode 36. During the cry scene, when CSS said she cried because she missed home. I could see from LBY's eyes expression he seemed to know CSS was not being honest with him and was a bit disappointed. That's why during the bed scene, he asked her again. WL and ZLS are really two great young actors ππππ
Do you guys still remember LBY and CSS's wedding scene from YS's imagination in earlier episodes of part 1 when YS's master tells his love story? I read in the comment section that the novel ends with them engaged and the marriage between LBY and CSS happens in the epilogue. Now I have a wishful thinking that wedding scene from YS imagination may be from the actual wedding scene the director shot.
I have watched until episode 24 and I must say that I like the mortal arch better than the heaven arch. The mortal arch is hilarious as hell. YD really lives a free and unrestrained life there. She is intelligent and witty. I can see Taoist Tang is liking her day by day. A question tho, the reason why YY went to the mortal realm is to investigate the mystery behind the war between the demons and the gods but how is he supposed to investigate with no previous memories at all?
I am on episode 18. Can you guys shed light on me what made Yan Dan so deeply in love with Ying Yuan to the point she can't even cross that damn river even after almost 900 years of trying just simply because she can't forget about him? I can't recall what Ying Yuan has done to her to make him worth all her sacrifices and sufferings. She's just too stubborn.
Why do you guys think SS's parents were not invited to the empress's birthday banquet? Isn't SS's father a court official now? Was it because SS's father rank not high enough? But at least they can be considered as the emperor's and empress's in-laws as well right? Even YS was invited and I don't think his rank is that high either. He mentioned he's some kind of assistant at the Ministry of Justice.
How old was LBY when the Huo family was massacred?Some people said in the comment that LBY actually knows that…
Did Ling Yi not see LBY during his time growing up in the palace and only see him again after he's an adult? That's why he thought LBY is his real son? Ah yes, that irony. I can put two and two together that their fates have been intertwined since the day CSS was born.
Maybe I was asking too much but I would have liked to see LBY embrace CSS during the scene on the ramparts. I…
I noticed he was hugging her but not so sure since it's a bit blurry as you said. I mean that's their very first intimate moment after the engagement, I could not just miss that. So I had to pause the video to make sure my eyes did not lie to me.
Questions about Huo family for those who have read the novel.
How old was LBY when the Huo family was massacred? Some people said in the comment that LBY actually knows that his real father is general Huo. Based on the story so far, I assume that Ling Yi (LBY's fake father) does not know LBY is not his real son. How is that possible? Does LBY resemble his son when he was young?
Episode 30 was the first time she was mentioned. I didnt read the novel so I am not sure whether she is still alive by now. In that scene, Consort Yue wanted to make her point by using that story as an example on how the Lady Ruyang was only good to the emperor after he ascended to the throne. Back then when the emperor was still poor, the Lady Ruyang did not even lend her money to the emperor's pregnant sister to buy meat for nourishment. The emperor had to go hunting by himself and almost got himself killed by the harsh weather.
