LOVEISYOU

if he refused to do the operation. then he will. But he does not want to take the risk because anything happen with the operation he will die immediately. then southern ye will be left in mess

XWY does not believe that sitting on the throne will keep the world peaceful. This has been consistent from the start. He does not believe the Phoenix Token will guarantee permanent peace for Southern Ye. He is thinking about the long term. That's why, during his argument with FL's mother, he strongly believed that reforming the Beifu Army and defeating Northern Qi once and for all would give them permanent peace.

But he can't do that by sitting on the throne because there will be another issue to handle, which is managing the noble families. Plus, his life is a ticking bomb, and he doesn't have enough time. That's why he was rushing to reform the Beifu Army, and the Regent would be the one handling the state matters.

That's why he kept guiding LM back on track, not because he chose him, but because LM decided to be the Regent. LM's biggest problem is his inner demon, which is pride and ego. I guess he has always envied XWY since they were young. XWY was an honorable general, a natural leader, and now the rightful heir to the throne. He always misunderstood XWY's intentions, and he can't believe that XWY is a selfless guy with no hidden agenda. But the truth is, XWY does not have a hidden agenda. He just wants permanent peace for his country and to settle everything as quickly as possible before he passes.

I don't think LM is in love with XJY either. It's more about the fact that he can't lose to XWY. He always tries to prove that he is better. Plus, he has been manipulated a lot by his own father. I agree that, right now, he is not fully fit to be the next emperor because of his conflicting emotions, but it's not entirely unredeemable. Once he makes peace with his inner demon and works together with XWY, I think he has the potential to become a good emperor. But we're yet to see his next action, so let's see.

there's a scene where FL's mother asked XWY, "What if he does not deserve the position?" But we never get his answer. and the part where emperor gave the phoenix token back to XWY. We never get to see his reaction or conversation after that. Maybe it's a suspense for later. But let's see how it goes.

because she promised XWY that she will create a weapon for them. She needs to find mineral ore for the catapult. This weapon will give Ye bigger chance winning the war against the northern. So it's a not a fun promise, but a duty promise to help Southern Ye to win the war. plus she also fulfilling her dream to travel around. But of course, if she knew XWY is sick, she won't be doing it. but XWY does not want her to be restricted because of his condition. It's more like letting her shaping her own life, so once he pass, he wont have to worry anything about her.

I think he wants to see how far LM willing to go. because multiple times people keep saying to him “what if he does not deserve the throne?” but we never get to hear XWY answer. so idk. either he still trying to save him or he is evaluating him whether he is fit to the throne. i think its the first one

yes agreed. i can see LM deep down in his heart, he still cant entirely let go brotherhood between them. thats why he keep conflicting himself. like todays episode, first when he saw XWY refused to agree with everything he says, he throw tantrum. when the doctor said he is going to die, then suddenly want to save him. if LM keeps letting his inner demon eating his head, it bound to be tragic ending. but i have a feeling that toward the end they will finally work together.

XWY has multiple time tried to guide LM to the right track, but based on previews and teaser, i have a trust issue with LM. i think LM biggest problem is his inner demon. He is not in love in XJY at all but in fact he hates that XJY fell in love with XWY instead, willing to do everything for him while she was totally opposite with him. He is just trying to prove the point that he is better than XWY for once. XWY is the crown prince, respectable and honourable general but he is literally the opposite. honestly i dont think he is 100% fit to the throne because of his unstable emotion but there’s prolly no other better candidate. so thats why XWY keep guiding him back to right track but i guess LM keep dissapointing him over and over again due to his inner demon. lets see if LM will able to make peace with his inner demon or he will continue falling to the wrong path? XWY we all know he wont be sitting on the throne. because he knows his life is ticking bomb and he does not believe sitting on the throne will able to keep the world peaceful. he is not patient enough to be on the throne and dealing with nobles family. i understand his POV thats why he said LM can achieve what he cant achieve. because he remember the old LM, who has same ambition with him. their relationship rather complex i must say. LM look at XWY as a rivalry while XWY look at him as someone who can protect the peace together. so how this relationship gonna end? we shall see. i wonder what happened with prince jiang suddenly killing grand tutor. cant wait for tmr!!

It's love at first sight. When he met her for the first time, especially on the boat, he found that she was an interesting person. That made him curious about her, and a lot of people fall in love because of curiosity.

HMH's yesterday livestream. He was explaining more about Xiao Wuyi's character. I really love his detailed explanation about the character and why Xiao Wuyi is one of his favorite characters.

Its because she promised him to find the mineral ore for the weapon. her promise is not just a normal promise, it’s a duty promise where this will give them greater chance winning the war. plus she also want to fullfil her dream to travel around. of course if she knew he is sick, she wont do it but XWY does not want to keep her around just because he is sick. thats why in episode 22 he said “do i only give her freedom after i died?” so the time skip for 2 years, i assume its because he does not want her to know he is sick. thats why they rarely meet. plus his life is a ticking bomb, so he needs to quickly reform beifu before his pass

what is going onnnnn!!! teaser for ep 24 really stressing me out. is elder jiang really involve in an and lu cases? and do you guys think Limao will become good? or he become bad again? i dont know anymore.

episode 21 giving me calm before storm vibe. I’m scared 🫠

yeah maybe ruisheng able to cure him. hopefully! then XWY and JY can go travel and have freedom 🤭

Wow the plot is getting better and better. I did not expect that the emperor knows XWY true identity..Limao oh limao, XWY already gave you a chance to be the emperor but he still gets control by his emotion and fear. Seriously the siblings are the most ungrateful people. i really love when XWY confronted him at the ending of EP 18. everything he said is the truth but doesn’t seem like limao got the message. I wish XWY will ascend to the throne but based on his personality, pretty unlikely. stresss

Tonight’s episodes gave me a roller coaster emotion. from happy, to sad then stress then sad then stress again 😭😭 oh dear lejun, why you went down that route.

So proud of him! Recognized as dark horse for 2 dramas! LITC and KTTPH. Both low budget drama but managed to get S+ !!! So IQIYI, where is the prince treatment?! excuse me! Seriously how many times he needs to prove himself. when they gonna give him a proper treatment. I really hope we can achieve 9K heat index at least. but seems like very tough. to stay 8500 is hard enough. I can see C-kiwis really trying their best. how i wish international audience can help.

be careful of your words. dont think that because you are in internet, you feel its okay to throw all serious accusations to someone. even you are in internet, you can’t run away from law

the director actually complimenting their acting skill. but the way he deliver the compliment very insensitive . what he meant is like “the eyes expression, the acting so good, it seems real” the director is a old uncle so typical old guy comment and forgot that his comment can caused harm. i hope he can be careful with his words. pity HMH, he was literally got shocked of his life with the comments

War/politics/fight for power and alot plot twist. in term of romance it’s balance

Balance plot. but alot wars/politics/plot twist/fight for power

If you're talking about IQIYI heat index, current is 8300++. but for the past 3 days we managed to maintain at 8,500++. I heard that to achieve 10,000 is not easy for Iqiyi cause their metrics not only involve with number of views.
