Haha it IS hard to stop at one ep/day 😁

Seriously these people's audacity to call TTJ a monster when they are the ones doing "monsterish" things! Is there such a word? 😂🤡

I love what you wrote! It's a thoughtful reflection capturing the emotional complexity of LSS and TTJ. The way you acknowledged their traumas and emotional reactions show a deep understanding of their psychology. Love can both heal and trigger fears, and they are new to this, so it is understandable that they stumbled despite experiencing the Bo're Life dream. 😥

It was so nice seeing TTJ's happiness at YXW's arrival and the matching outfits. I think the director just thinks carrying a girl off is romantic 🤔😂 In the bts, Lulu's stomach was suffering because of this carry coz it right over Xixi's shoulder bone. LOL at your observation about her feet 🤣🤣

It's good that TTJ got his revenge.

That confrontation between TTJ and YXW was brutal, but YXW really knew where it hurts. Sheesh!
Lulu acting and delivery of YXW/LSS' contempt for TTJ is so palpable. No wonder TTJ fans hated her guts. 😅🤣

Bitchang loves herself. The end. 😂

After getting intel from YXW, XL rushes back to the capital but it is in disarray already. Bitchang and her maid tries to escape but a eunuch wants to rob them at knife point. She grabs her maid to use her as a shield from the stabbing. I really like Bitchang here. She is finally true to her selfish self. Chills at CDL's acting here.
B's self preservation skills are really up there. She runs to TTJ knowing that TTJ's palace is the safest place for her now. TTJ agrees to take her with him while XL arrives late.

TTJ goes back to camp and recalls the info he got that YXW went to XL, so instead of explaining what happened, he baits YWX with his wording thinking she betrayed him. He says he killed someone, inducing LSS' traumatic flashback. They lash out at each other with disappointment and hurt showing in their eyes. 😢 3 of the nails dissolves and only 1 is left.

TTJ is seriously hurt but wants to keep it a secret.
Oooohhh Xixi showing some skin.... Haha! 😉

PR encounters B when she goes to YQY's tent and gets introduced to her. Some weird tension here coz of a yet to be revealed reason. YQY makes a mistake by calling her a comrade. Seriously boy...

XL leads a rag tag group after escaping the capital. His generals give a report. They think B was forced by TTJ to go with him. Excusez moi?!

TTML + sorceress talk about their evil army.

TTJ daydreams about YXW. B talks to TTJ about showing her gratitude. He says to stay by his side day in and day out, and to make meals for him. B is scheming to be his concubine. She is also delusional thinking that TTJ likes her. Haha!

YXW walks around the camp until TTJ finds her. Oh I just realized LSS' resolute nature was given away by what YXW said in camp after she was admonished by TTJ for walking despite knowing it was done by PR to make her go back.
"I never backtrack. I said I would come to see you. I kept my word. "
The same goes for her mission, then. She uses the tricks taught by PR and senses the SSN heating up again. This is the end of their cutesy part.
She goes to PR's tent. I know that their interactions make some people ship them. Haha!

TTJ goes off after learning his mother's remains were stolen. Instead of staying in the tent like PR said, YXW goes to XL. Why is the security in TTJ's camp so lax that she can leave and get a horse just like that? I really hate the screenwriters for dumbing down YXW/LSS and creating so many plot holes in this arc. 🤦‍♀

This sequence with the Sheng king is just annoying. TTJ shows that he way more powerful now. This mean king throws the urn and curses him. It is heartbreaking to see TTJ's mother's ashes swept away by the rain. Die already...
YX's trauma is triggered, and she stabs TTJ. He sees it as tit-for-tat and kills her.

Ep.21
PR is so cute and sassy! LOL at YXW teasing that YQY must have brain damage to like PR.

Haha the crow just gives away YXW's presence in the camp - the devil who made them deliver 8 letters a day. 🤣🤣🤣

TTJ looks so happy knowing she is there but pretends to be angry at her when they came face to face. She explains, he hugs. AYIEEEEE!!!!

TTJ being too honest, "You smell rancid!" Haha! He loves that she dresses in similar colors as him. Their CP look is ❤️. He asks for a doctor and picks her up to take to his tent for treatment. The almost kiss should have happened.

Fu Yu is really evil! She told the Sheng king to sacrifice girls and boys as well as to desecrate TTJ's mother's remains to make a killing spell. This king is abominable, too.

Haha the crows made several appearances in this ep. 😂

Hi Moonies! Here's the cue for our 2nd anniversary rewatch. 😁

Tune in to Episode 21 and drop your thoughts below.

The entire camp had geese buffet that day. 🤣

She's a real femme fatale 🤣🤡🤣

Haha yup HR needs to be set up coz TTJ's been violating labor codes.

Now that I think about, PR was pretty patient with him at first coz she actually worked for 80days nonstop. 😅😂

Woah! We're at the halfway mark already. 😲

Yup, this was a cute ep with our main CP catching feelings for each other.
NBY is not afraid to let those zingers loose though. 😂 Speaks well of TTJ at this point that his subordinate can be honest w/o expecting to be zapped. ⚡️😂

He sounded so tentative like he is asking for permission to like someone... our poor mistreated prince 😭

Oh btw, I noticed that the translations are better now. In Youku's first airing, it just said "Feelings?"
So I had a rant in the 1st rewatch re:translations because that one word couldn't get the essence of what he said. 😅

I agree 💯!
This has got to be one of my fave episodes as well! It's just fun and lovely to watch all of their interactions. 😍

Happy Easter, ChunTian! 🎉🐰🐥💕

Love NBY's comebacks! 👏🤣

It was so cool to watch!

I really like those light rings TTJ can conjure - very "focus on me" haha 💫💫💫
Plus the swoop and the cape flips. TTJ is such a diva!😂

The tomb proposal foreshadowing...😥

He's a goner for sure 🤣

That was very sweet of him! 🌟
