Wow this episode was heavy! What a brutal way to drive home the point to Li Ni that his carefree days are over and he can never return to Laolan Pass. Even if he does, all his close comrades are dead and it would never be the same.

I hope this isn't one of those dramas where the 2nd lead redeems themselves by sacrificing their life to save the one they love after being evil throughout the series because I want that unfilial and ungrateful bastard LCF to be hanged, drawn and quartered. After that, his remains should be gathered and his bones should be burned, ground up and scattered to the winds.

So Li Jun commits arson and murders so many people in the process and all his father does is to send him to his room for a timeout?!! How does that even qualify as a real punishment?

I'm starting to dislike how they always make CL a damsel in distress to be always saved by LN her knight in shining armour all the time. She's a capable commander and knows how to fight. LCF isn't such a formidable opponent that she can't escape him on her own

I wonder if XW keeps his hair down (unlike the other guys in the show) to hide the birthmark behind his ear proving that he's the real XDF or if it's just a choice by the stylist

It still makes me annoyed when I think about how the sickly young master received more serious life threatening wounds on two different occasions but is still alive unlike Chen Xing

Maybe the side effect of the medicine LCF was given in Jieshuo is delusion.

I really love this life's Yan Lin. Their goodbye scene made me sad that it didn't work out between them but I understand how JXN wouldn't be able cope with the trauma he inflicted upon her in her last life

I'm suspecting Pei Yuan likes her. He stared at her some type of way when she came to thank Li Ni for saving her from Han Li and he also praised her embroidery skills

That portrait definitely is going to be the trigger for any misunderstanding between the leads over Miss Gu. I almost expected Cui Lin to stumble upon it during her visit but it's good the writers decided to allow them to bond over Lord Liang's treatment of Li NI's mother instead

If he doesn't step up, there would be no little Li Nis and Cui Lins

Li NI's father is so incompetent and foolish that it would be preferable for Sun Jing to be Emperor instead.

You know you have a great Emperor in power when the first thing he thinks about after ascending his throne is how the curtains need to be changed because they're old.

The author recently made a post saying that both leads are the great grandparents of the ML in Goodbye My Princess so I guess they had a HE

Unfortunately, what LCF did would be regarded as beneficial for the Cui Army since he didn't know LN's true motives like CL did so he probably won't be punished for it.

Some people who didn't like what happened in episodes 15 &16

The worst kind of villains are the ones who turn bad because of unrequited love

People were calling LN a simp yesterday but the real simp here is LCF. Bro was having an identity crisis and almost lost the will to live because the girl he likes fell for someone else. Does he even have any personal goals for himself that don't somehow involve CL?

I wonder what the Emperor is going to do when he finds out that his mother sent her brother to get the seal from Hanlin Academy without his express authorisation. Is she even allowed to do that?

He's not a simp. If he was, he would have let Cui Lin go when she asks him to release her but he still keeps her around to use as a bargaining chip against her father. Just because he's soft for her doesn't mean he can't strategize effectively in the war he's fighting

LCF receiving his karma very quickly for selling out his allies. It's a pity he didn't die though

With an evil and ungrateful father that prefers his incompetent sisters to him too
