You are so on point. Otherwise they'd just be traitors, unworthy of their positions and their people's trust

Baddie in the sense of strong and ruthless.

Oh we are! The trailer and some bts promise a lot of angst and pain

No. He's a cutie named Jin An, falling for the FL. He'll have a dark fighter side that comes out to play when she's in danger, but till ep18 he's amnesiac

Ep18 preview. I can't wait to see when they meet again in the future as Crown Prince and Annan how he'll feel after this fiasco of wine drinking! CL is a natural!

Exactly! Not filler at all! As you said we must witness what they stand to lose and how that will impact their future choices. I hate it when directors feed as crumbs of intimacy and focus solely on angst, death stares and empty vindictive declarations for the sake of drama

Ep 16, oh my God! He is such a green flag, and the dummy practice... LOL!

I love how their relationship is progressing. It will make later episodes more meaningful and poignant. It's good to see them share memories and feelings, acting silly and in love. It's been so long since a drama I have watched focused on building the love instead of the misunderstandings. The fact that they share great chemistry helps,to be honest. She's not awkward touching him and teasing him

If they kill my third CP down the road I swear I'll do bad things to them!

I've started rewatching already! I want to relive it all again till I get the new eps!

Definitely!

Don't you get the vibe that it's his true self, and not acting? He does it so effortlessly!

Interesting! Thanks!

Ok, another question. I just read the summary. It says that he remembers he is the prince, but his alter ego remembers Li Shuang. So, does that mean he'll never be free of the Jade Linglong?

I just had a thought..If the concubine dies the emperor dies. Does that make Jin An a guardian to his nephew? Won't they be able to be together at the end??

Not gonna lie, I teared up at Qiao's background story

I think they wanted to save eps to build their relationship rather than elaborate on his cruelty as a general. A cold calculated prince is more easily imagined than a full fledged relationship. We did get to see his abilities in the 1st episode and this slow reveal of his princely skills is quite funny.

Is that on eps33-34 on the calendar a pair of lips? And do we get sth special the day after it finishes? I can't help but notice a petal on the 12th

It can't have anything else but a happy ending. I refuse to believe anything else.The romance is the focus and the chemistry is hot. There are some political schemes but so far they are building a very healthy courtship and it's beautiful to witness it.

I hope it's not true and he just plays along bc the empress is monitoring the interrogation. We'll know once we get there
