Nooo babes if the emperor doesn’t die the most brutal, agonizing, soul-shattering death known to man, I’m…
Exactly!!! Like I need someone to actually rebel and end this old man. He is just cruel and ruthless. He can't treat his children fairly, how can he treat his kingdom fairly either?
I was just gonna comment abt this ksksk I’m a bit nervous especially when it comes to the scene of NH choosing…
Like the sister clearly isn't in love with him. She likes the image of a cool guy so I was thinking maybe a new girl will be introduced because it's hard to tell how that will turn out.
The next scene should be about the wedding where they stab each other. I'm thinking it will break there because…
Lmao I forgot that happened in the wedding day because I was laughing at how ridiculous it was but like I'm confused by the logic of it overall. If you stab each other, does that mean all three survived or died? I don't think it's in the script but probably a scene that they wanted to add... I can't be too sure.
People still dislike the female lead? I get that her behaviour is frustrating but I would like to say that kinda what makes her a great female lead actually. There is two key factors behind her behaviour. She read the script. This is the main highlight. If you read a story and you know a character is known to be a villain, cunning, scheming and there is no good qualities and you entered a script, are you just going to believe he is nice? When it's explicit said he is a schemer and deceives people? I'm not trusting him either.
The second point is the fact he tried to kill her. Like yea, it's Hella funny and we love them red/black flags but realistically, this doesn't fly either. These two combined is enough for me to act even worse than her. Mind you, she wants escape the fate of being killed horribly by the plot. Unfortunately, even though a lot of things changed, the scenes didn't (another key point) so that means she knows she is heading towards doom. She will reach that point where her body will move on its own and jump her off a cliff... This is a very dark conclusion she has to come in terms with.
I need people to focus a little more on the storytelling and less on the romance. I like a good romance too but I'm okay if I didn't get it in the first 10-20 episode. There is 20 more to go.
Anyway, another iconic scene were Yimeng couldn't escape it. At the stage we going in, the next iconic has to be the one where her sister slept with Nan Heng. I'm so curious to see how that one is going to play out because the scene is sooooo messy. Like is Yimeng going to be forced to cry about it and all?? Lmao? Or the script is going to FINALLY change? I'm so curious about that one.
Oh my god... Last time I told y'all I hate the emperor because he uses his "cornering tactics", do y'all see it in this episode? He literally coming up with bullshit punishment because it's his only chance to punish Nan Heng and he knows it will be justified. If I hear a peep in the future about how "The emperor truly loves him, he was protecting him 💔" we all gonna die together. Y'all coming with me! Lol I'm just kidding but like please, I better not hear this crap..
when you put it like this, I'm thinking damn, he's going through a lot. this is why I loved episode 12 when he…
When I hear the fl complain about how unfair it is, I think of Nan Heng and how he will never know what it's like to complain about it being unfair because it's never an option for him. It's a given he needs to take the blame for everything.
I liked that episode too and I feel ike we need another episode of him being frustrated because it was not enough.
What I like about LYN is that even in cold-looking ML roles, he’s never boring to look at. His micro expressions…
Liu Yu Ning is honestly a good actor. He been playing these rigid, cold role with barely much acting required, looks can cover it but he brings so much life into them. My sister previously ask me who I think are good Chinese actors and I was thinking off Luo Yun Xi, who was really good in Till The End of the Moon. It showed his range but I had a hard time listing male actors. Zhang Wan Yi have a lots of potential but then I thought of Liu Yu Ning, even though I’m not a fan of him, his acting feels genuine and real. Now I’m watching this and I’m thinking, “He is really good!” it reinforced my idea that he is a very good actor.
I completely agree I mean if the emperor a grown ass man thinks a little boy is behind the assassination somehow…
100%!!!! That emperor acting like a child yet he is leading the country! Like he doesn't have any ounce of good decision making sense. Not sure why he is in this position.
NH definitely should have suspected but in the end, the emperor sent to the cold palace to restrict him and punish him. Yes, I'm with you on that point. He definitely just wants a peaceful life and to help people. That what makes him a better emperor than his brother.
Not gonna lie, I almost cried from the way the shitty emperor was treating his son. It's his "cornering tactics" that's getting into me. He pushes him in a way that doesn't allow him to back away. The clear favoristism and different treatment between the brothers. Giving your son a sword over what HIS brother caused? Nan Heng knowing he is not favoured and also misunderstood so he was going to do it JUST for his fuckass dad to be pissed about how he is ruining HIS IMAGE??? I kid you not, I had to stand UP from the couch and pace around after I witnessed that.
Listening to Song Yimeng telling him how unfair this whole ordeal was.... I am with her on that. Like it really was unfair that she was dragged! but while I was agreeing with her, I'm thinking, damn, Nan Heng can't even say that it was unfair for him too and could only apologise. This episode definitely triggered me.
Gu needs to grow tf up! I was gonna say he needs to get off his high horse and he did. He did so I gave him grace and decided I'm not gonna making an issue of his obnoxious behaviour but then I see the backstory and you telling me, you are an adult and you still believe a little boy was responsible for your aunt's death??? Bfr??? And you clinging into that grudge and thinking ill of him for years???? Bfrrrrrrr?? You kidding me? It deadass look like assassins killed her and her guards! But he is being bitter about it as if he was responsible for it? Nan Heng is pitiful. He have to listen to people talking ill of him to his face AND behind his back.
All of his wives and concubines were placed strategically there to spy on him. And he knows it.
Like it's so obvious he doesn't care about those women at all. It makes more and more sense that he is forced to marry them. I believe they will all be gone and he will only keep his one true wife, our fl.
I'm trying to understand this but it's difficult for me. She is just a character in this world, she has nothing…
She already had her cards to play and it showed in ep 11 when she reminded him that he tried to kill her multiple times. It gives her an edge. She is not an idiot plus she can't be killed so I'm sure she had a way to offset this sort of situation. I can see why you think it's dumb though because it's a huge risk but the show makes it a joke.
I'm saying he knows that she actually a good person, she is just misunderstanding him like everyone else. But he likes her because he sees so many good qualities in her that she only shows Li Shijiu that's what I meant.
Oh my goddddd, my heart breaks for Nan Heng. Anything he says, is being used against him almost immediately. He tries to hold his brother accountable, he is blamed, he tries to take the blame from his brother, he is doing it for ulterior motive, he wants to hold people who harmed him accountable, he did it himself, he tries to do anything, he is blamed! Let me man go you sonofabitcheeeeessssssss!!! Oh my god. Let him breathe!
Like that’s my girl!!!! That’s my fking girl! Y’all don’t get it. She eats so bad. You bully her? She bullies back IMMEDIATELY! She doesn’t even hesitate. One strike after another. You push, she pushes harder! What he did doesn’t qualify, it’s messed up in the head but she matched it. She knew how he operates and made him set his own trap. She is the one. And that scene were he sutured… and he leaned in. Like I wasn’t screaming…. I didn’t freak out. The red flagness is flagging but he said he met his match. And you know what I like? She wants to teach him a lesson… like exactly! Please do! Teach him to never fk with you again!

Damn, interesting plot point there. I wish I found out this on my own as I haven't caught up yet but they definitely spicing it up with these revelation.
