The key to understand the poem is its title "Mr Sun on the Sangbo case".
Sangbo case is XQ's case, it was entrusted to him by the emperor, and was solved by HIM by delivering a runaway Zhou Chixiong to the court and everybody in the court knows it was a great achievement (he accomplished tnx to the n°2, but that's another story, nobody knows how he fulfilled practically impossible task, after all other leads were cut-killed).

Everybody raises children and wants them to be wise
(implying: who comes after me on this case is like a child for me, I mean well to him)

I was ruined by my wisdom.
(ie: the rest of the case is taken away from me, because of my wits and skills)

I only wish for my child to be foolish and simple,
suffering no hardship or disaster

(ie. so who comes after me should only be a fool and without merits
in order not to meet hardship I've gone through - and he would have been executed if he didn't solve the case)

to become a public official/minister
(bc public officials/ministers won't meet the hardship if they are fools or play dumb)

why would they sabotage their own product?
From which they can also gain a great collateral income, think about gadgets of loong (who doesn't want that dragon?), kui, fox lady and other creatures that will come till the end?...

After the kiss, she runs away leaving him a letter with many thanks for suggesting her "to do what she wants". Call her stupid, he is a hooked fish now. 😂😂😂

If you want to switch the genre (bc Heroic Husband is always a "time travel" comedy), check first Miss S, an entertaining detective comedy set in (very fictional) Republican era. For some reason, I think you'll like it.

I also liked a lot how he arranged and cut the scenes in My Heroic Husband, directed the actors, always maintaining the pace, balancing well between humour, frenzy and sweetness.
As for Dylan, I'm not here for him (although he certainly delivers well the lead character and I am glad he does) but for the well crafted story in high level production

he is great, indeed, but this one is his best directing so far.
Have you noticed his appearance in ep 1, as a jailer?

MDL's users ain't picky, the fact is that the initial ratings tend to be influenced by people who dropped/ disliked the drama (or its genre or a certain character) in early stages or are simply haters of certain actors or productions. This is why they are usually underrated before they end.
The most seen (and appreciated) by the MDL's users "idol dramas" also tend to be influenced by fandoms in early stages (when they are regularly overrated, only later they start to drop). Although Wang Hedi can be considered an idol, this drama is not of that kind.

The ratings stabilise when the ratio between the votes expressed and "watchers" is 1:3, because the large majority of viewers (like me) don't express their rating before the very ending. The current ratio is about 1:10 with steady upwards trend and, if nothing significantly negatively impacts, the final rating will be much higher than this one.

I've dropped that one, too

than MM is your cup of tea. ☺️ Totally her comfort zone role

I've noticed a different room, too, but I've thought he's already on his trip to Yuzhou (in ep 23 trl he retrieved the stolen silver and in ep 25 trl he meets n°2). Why would he come back home?

FP looks better than MM (bc. the first is centred around a character played by the actress who knows her job) but it's unwatchable bc of the machine translation. Ofc, MM is a higher budget production, very colourful but the plot is... someone will probably like it, but it is certainly not my cup of tea... boring, predictable and so similar to other dozens Bai Lu's dramas I've dropped after few eps.
FP has a simple plot, Tang dynasty style is well represented, but I'm afraid the dramaland is already saturated with stories (business oriented and self sustained heroine) of this kind, Jang Zi certainly performed better and more complex roles than this one, returning to smth she has already done gives me deja-vu vibes.

you're right, ofc., I know, I was just joking how impressive & efficient she was. Tracing, capturing but above all, that "fast home delivery"... it took just a few minutes, lol

N° 2 is too efficient in capturing - package & delivery included - that Zhou Chixiong villain

They either rushed today's ep or....

I doubt the emperor will be discarded in this season

ah, ok, I get it
But, to be honest, I've actually only re-posted my answer to another user below which dealt with novel's spoilers.
For people not being interested in corruption stories, well, I'm not either, but it is a part of both this game and of the reality. Nobody likes or is interested in corruption, but accepting its existence is part of growth, as well

So, I'll take it as a compliment. ☺️
You are right "there is no universal agreement about what must be considered a spoiler" because MDL doesn't have a specific rule about it. But I'm pretty sure my post didn't ruin anybody's sense of surprise.
I don't care about the novel, I'm just watching a drama which works well to this point

Good night, good (loong) riding and riddance of bad thoughts! ☺️

you're so right about it. As only male characters can be mischievous, silly, lazy or liars to be loved, we have invented "antiheroes" and "gray characters" terms just for them.
But I think this issue is ok now, bc. after the humiliation and loss of her bossom friend, the audience starts to relate better with FL
