MJN

Not really a love triangle. There are several people who like the FL, she doesn't initially like the ML, she already had someone she liked. She does end up liking him. I myself, really like the ML in The Rebel Princess, he is definitely perfect for the part.

I forgot about that part. YN wouldn't have gone to prison except Madam Chen had YN's maid tell the magistrate, whereas they kept her situation in house.

I love to see all these reaction to LYN's plotting and intelligence. To me this is nothing new. If you haven't seen The Princess Wei Young or The Story of Ming Lan, what LYN does here pales in comparison to these stories and the clever intelligent FLs of those. I am use to these types of historical dramas with this kind of intrigue. I wouldn't necessarily call this a thriller or mystery so to speak. There are many political historical dramas where this type of stuff happens all the time, I guess I am so use to it. But I love seeing people get excited over this kind of stuff.

I would recommend the following dramas if you seriously like this type of story:
The Princess Wei Young
The Story of Ming Lan
The Rebel Princess
Jun Jiu Ling
Nirvana in Fire *edit* (this is not really female lead centric, but it is a great political drama)
The Legend of Dugu
The Rise of Phoenixes
The Sword and the Brocade


These are just a few, but I am sure there are several others that I missed.

the same could be said with LYN when they imprisoned her, they didn't have any real proof either, except some maid, but still no actual proof

I agree.

I hope it happens soon. I really don't want the identity of her real father to drag out like her not being the legitimate daughter of the Luo family has.

I freaking hate LYN's not father. I honestly think he is the worst character written in this drama.

So far this has been one of the best episodes, at least for story progression. But, LYN's not bio father is dumb, clueless, incompetent, runs hot and cold, gullible, just an all around freaking idiot. I know I say I don't like Concubine Qiao or the First Madam, because they are evil, but I truly hate LYN's not bio father. He is the worst character and sort of the worst written.

Also, it looks like the First Madam is insinuating that LYN is the child of her husband and LYN's mother. And I knew that letter would be at the end of this episode so we would have to wait til tomorrow.

So I take it that the grandma knew all along about the FL's true identity? (or maybe not necessarily who her father was, but that she wasn't really her granddaughter)

its one of the reasons why I like binging, even though it sucks to wait, I prefer watching all the episodes at once, but sometimes I miss the day to day chatting and posts that you get when you watch an ongoing drama, so I will occasionally watch an ongoing drama just go get that

Did anyone else feel as you were watching the scene with Concubine Qiao and LYN that if felt staged, not really real? What I mean is we know from the previews Concubine Qiao is alive, so I didn't get the feeling I am suppose to from the scene, if I had not know she was alive. That most every thing that LYN is going through was completely intentional. (which for the most part I am sure it was) But I guess I should not look at the previews, so I would get that shock and awe feeling so to speak.

Who is Ting? I may have missed it, if they said what his relationship was to Duke Ying. He sure did gravitate to LYN in today's episode right away.

Me!!! I feel it...can we just skip episode 26 and get to 27...... especially surprise the fact Concubine Qiao isn't dead, I can't believe they put that in the preview

Just watched the previews, can we have episode 27 right now and probably 28, cause they will probably end episode 27 with that letter reveal.

I know I have said this already but I really can't stand that lady of the first house. Please can we be done with her.

Also, i think today was the first time in this drama I actually got a bit annoyed with Ren Min's voice. When LYN was whining about LSY not wearing the clothes she made for him. It got a little to whiny for me.

I agree with you. I think this episode they maybe had a bit more, but there have been episodes that haven't even showed the 2nd couple. I think they also did this to clear up a lot of stuff. I don't understand why everyone is so upset about this. There are way more dramas out there where there are 2nd couples even 3rd couples that get just as much if not more screen time than the main couple. ( Wrong Carriage, Right Groom for one). IMO, the 2nd couple in this drama hardly has that much screen time at all.

Love this explanation. I also have mentioned that about 2nd and 3rd couples being in almost on every single drama. Thank you so much for your wonderful insight.

I just love reading different people's reviews, comments and thoughts, sometimes I agree and sometimes I don't and even sometimes it makes me change my thoughts and views, seeing it from a different perspective.

lol

I agree, I am wondering that same thing. I am quite confused about this as well.
