Yunxi is unredeemable. Plotting a murder of her mentally vulnerable cousin together with the n°1 enemy of her…
You know, I think it was the blind sis who organised Wan'er's rescue. Sending a tip to RSB... she was on the plantation, it could have been too late. Beside being cautious, the blind sis is more intelligent than other sisters, that's why she is relatively safe. She had tried to enter He's good graces when he was tied by RSB but he refused her later, revealing his brutal hater psycho nature. So, she turned to Bai who is more similar to her in character and nature (the reason why she didn't want to be with him at first) and likes her. Hearing from her maid, RSB's maid Yang'er was in Yunxi's courtyard receiving gifts with maids from other courtyards, she became sus. Aware Yunxi made an iron pact with He, she immediately concluded the two criminals were plotting smth in that moment and that the RSB's maid will be used in that plot. So she headed to Huanlin courtyard to check on "new tea buds". Along the way, she probably heard Bai was invited by He for dinner (she and Bai were supposed to meet that evening) and connected the missing dots. He would never invite Bai for no reason, he hated his guts after she admitted they were dating. And was a perfect scapegoat if He was planning to commit a crime. For how much she is cautious, she doesn't want Bai harmed either, she likes him...
Spoiler :You can watch the preview for the next episode, it's shown there, but basically Rong Yunwen, the sis…
RSB didn't plan, just improvised after getting a tip from (probably) the blind sis who sensed He will commit the murder framing the scholar. The blind sis maybe even took certain precautions on her own given she was in Huanlin courtyard checking on "new tea buds" while RSB was away.
What is the motivation of 2nd murder in ep.13?? I dont get the connection...... 😶🌫️😶🌫️😶🌫️😶🌫️😶🌫️
If you want to know the motivation, just close your eyes and imagine what will be the outcome of He freak-YunXi plan to murder Wanwan: - the unruly sister will testify the shoe print was Wanwan's (and that's true) - the authority investigating Yang's death will close the case with Wanwan as a Yang's killer (everybody knows she is not of sound mind, so the motivation will be her mental instability) and with Bai scholar as Wanwan's killer (who committed the murder in a drunken state). - as a person who always protected Wanwan, RSB will be seen either as an accomplice to Yang's murder or as a person who covered for the killer. RSB will definitely be "brought down from the pedestal", as He freak said. - YX will be praised by her grandma for helping to close two hot cases fast without harming the family's reputation.
It won't go that way, but that was their plan in simple words.
Yunxi is unredeemable. Plotting a murder of her mentally vulnerable cousin together with the n°1 enemy of her…
there's still people who can't believe YX really colluded with He freak to kill Wanwan and frame Bai scholar, they are wondering what benefit would she get, lol I don't know if we are watching the same drama. It's crystal clear that the discovery of the owner of the footprint by the unruly sister was a game changer for YX: - the unruly brat will testify the shoe print was Wanwan's (and that's true) - the authority investigating Yang's death (which none of the Rong sisters fear at all btw) will close the case with Wanwan as a Yang's killer (everybody knows she is not of sound mind) and with Bai scholar as Wanwan's killer (in a drunken state of mind). - as a person who always protected Wanwan, RSB will be seen either as an accomplice to Yang's murder or as a person who covered for the killer. RSB will definitely be "brough down from the pedestal", as He freak said. - YX will be praised by her grandma for helping to close two hot cases fast. Fantastic plan.
Ofc. the things won't go the way YX and He planned, bc RSB got a tip in advance (probably from the blind sis), but even if YX is discovered to have colluded with He freak in his killing plan, what would grandma do to her? Hand Yunxi over to the authorities bc she killed a retarded cousin suspected of murder? What will happen with the Rong's family reputation if she hands her to the authorities? What leverage will remain to the old lady over RSB without YX? She can at most be punished according some "family punishment", although I don't see what rule YX broke. "The Rong girls cannot do only two things: marry outside the house and damage family's reputation". Everything else is allowed, including a plan to kill another Rong girl. That manor is a better ground for killers and schemers to go rampant than those in the Squid Game.
Tea bone is a special gift, believed to be innate to a special person of Rong family destined to run the tea business…
The bracelet can only be with the Yang's killer. And, although the twin bro cannot be ruled out, in this moment, the greatest suspect for that crime is He psycho.
Yunxi is a He's ally. She discovered (actually unruly sis discovered and then told Yunxi) the shoe print belonged…
The perspective changes accordingly to the presumption we make. If we presume Yunxi is the greatest threat (for the FL) in the house full of snakes, then this action may seem ill-timed and reckless. But lets first analyse what we've actually seen happening. We've all seen YX lured the maid while He made the scholar drunk and then drowned Wanwan (brought to him by the same maid) wearing scholar's clothes in order to shift the suspect towards the scholar. The unruly sister will testify the shoe print was Wanwan's (and that's true) and the authority investigating Yang's death (which none of the Rong sisters fear at all btw) will close the case with Wanwan as a Yang's killer and scholar as Wanwan's killer (in a drunken state of mind). As a person who always protected Wanwan, RSB can be harmed either as an accomplice to Yang's murder or as a person who covered for the killer. RSB will definitely be "brough down from the pedestal", as He freak said. So, it is not a bad plan. It won't work bc someone allarmed RSB (probably the blind sis), but even if discovered, will YX collusion with He bring any serious consequence to YX? Now, if you remain stick to this perspective (YX is the greatest threat), you'll think: yes, she'll be harshly punished. But if you change the perspective and think of how their bad deeds never got punished (bc. the old lady never wanted to seriously educate or punish them), then you'll think: no, she'll get out at most with some bland "family punishment". Can any of us imagine the old lady to hand Yunxi over to the authorities bc she killed a retarded cousin suspected of murder trying to wrap up the Yang's murder case as fast as possible? What kind of leverage will the old lady have on RSB if she hands YX over to the authorities and what will happen with the Rong's family reputation? YX can do and could have done all what she has done simply because she can, she is allowed, she won't suffer any serious consequence. Remember the motto "Rong girls cannot do only two things: marry outside the house and damage family's reputation". Everything else is allowed.
This is probably the 2nd drama i wait episode by episode from the beginning. The 1st is Silent Tides which is…
You're exactly my case. I've watched Silent Tides almost religiously ep after ep. But it was airing around the noon, so I've got everything ready for lunch to eat while watching... For Glory I have to wake up at 5 a.m. even on Sunday, dam'it!😂
Yeah, it doesn’t make sense, especially if it involve killing one of the sister.
oh, you were referring to the level of tension this murder brings into the narrative. At this point, we've passed 1/3 - actually, an ideal time to raise the tension bringing the plot on another level or arc. Don't expect the evil sis (who is not grey anymore, but black black) will soon get what she deserves. The plot will deal with scenes related to two "deaths" (one real and one faked) for at least another 4-5 episodes and there's also a cold case (Mrs Yang, aka Mrs Liang) that must be wrapped, closing this arc between ep 18-20 or even later. And even then, I am afraid grandma will still be willing to back her, especially after knowing Wanwan is still alive, so she'll get out of it with max. some sort of "family punishment". For the He freak the case is different: if he was truly responsible for Yang bull's murder (ie., if the death was not an accident, due his drunken state but a premeditated murder), he won't easily come out of that s**t. So, I think it isn't early, we'll see.
Actually what is tea bone .. why she have fake tea bone what does that mean??
Tea bone is a special gift, believed to be innate to a special person of Rong family destined to run the tea business and the family. The "gift" consists in detailed knowledge of all things regarding tea cultivation, tea tree health, soil, roasting, tea business etc. In reality, it's an acquired knowledge but the Rong family has its reasons to make it a belief and legend to which in particular tea plantation workers are very attached.
Yeah, it doesn’t make sense, especially if it involve killing one of the sister.
It may not make sense but the murders committed by siblings, usually for inheritance, happen every day in the world. Beside, this drama has elements of a palace intrigue drama (the scriptwriter is also the author of Yunxi Palace), such crimes are very common in this genre. We may think of them as exaggerated, but the real history was even crueler. In Ottoman empire it was totally legal for one prince to kill all his siblings of whatever age together with their mothers at the moment of death of their father.
If Yunxi truly collaborated with He Xingming, I fail to see what benefit she would gain. Wanwan dies, and Bai…
Yunxi is a He's ally. She discovered (actually unruly sis discovered and then told Yunxi) the shoe print belonged to Wanwan. They feared Wanwan saw He freak murdered Yang bull (actually, his target was Shanbao who was supposed to consumate her wedding night there with Yang) and decided to get rid of the possible witness. For Yunxi, there is a benefit to help He. He is the only person who hates RSB enough and is a psycho enough to kill her. In that case, she'll be in charge. Although He failed to kill RSB (bc she wasn't in the room with Yang), she still benefits from the chaos, bc a chaos shows how uncapable RSB is in keeping the things in family in order.
I think i'ma wait till the show ends and see reviews if Happy Ending, and not to angsty half way through. I'm…
you can only be scared to get addicted and suffering like we do. I woke up at 5 a.m. this (Sunday!) morning to watch the latest ep. That's the level of addiction this drama creates, lol
