Misnomers

Yes, two of marquis's aides are out. Historically military soldiers are known to usurp power from their superiors. ZH touched the right nerve and told him his guard is out of control. The marquis was told by the fortune teller that a star will come to help him from the verge of death. Marquis thinks that's ZH. The court needed a sacrifice, particularly Marquis guard's because he tainted the imperial tomb with murder (basically tainting a sacred place of ancestors, a big crime). His son insisted ZH should be sacrificed even tho the court is particularly asking for the guard. So the marquis killed the guard after weighing the pros and cons.

It felt like it was two minutes long 😂

The emperor seems pretty inactive I think that's why there's so much corruption. He didn't even come to the funeral to pay the last respects.

EP 7 WOW. I think I spent the entire episode in one breath.

They had a lot of chemistry. It looked so chill and friendly but at the same time it seemed like there was something brewing. Plus they have a past.

I'm sure you are a fan. The emoji 🪭 really sold it for me.

Where he has joined right now is equivalent of joining as a maid in the house of a high level consort. Not even an inner circle maid. You think this is close?

Can't lie, I'm entertained by Zhuang Zhixing. He's the second male lead, there's gotta be more to him than meets the eye.

Watch before waffling at least. Failed troll.

I think he did what his mother asked him that is to hide themselves in the haystack, so he hid his sister and wanted to come back to the scene but the tunnel was locked on the other side. Leaving her alone was a bad decision tho he's also a kid who didn't know better. It will probably haunt him always that he could've taken her along.

😂😂it was just a facial reconstruction

No, his master said his body is too weak for it and it won't be of any help in fighting against the strongest military general of the capital.

Broken 9000 heat index on youku! 🔥

Photographs didn't exist back then, how would he know?

Hmm and the guard driving the horse probably fainted after falling because we didn't see him, so does the kid. The horse also runs far from the gathering and Zhinu's house was probably quite close from there.

I think this is subjective but I believe he keeps the mask on even in private, like how his masked shifu asked him about his family's death numbers and ZH told him in a factual, casual tone. So the approach is deliberately different from usual dramas. It's just a few beginning episodes, in the trailers he does seem to be brooding and grieving and being ruthless, so I guess the mask slides off more often in future. This is just my opinion. 🤗

The marquis isn't gonna take him in his house if he looks like he's gonna kill him in the future. He said he carries the hatred in his heart, and doesn't show it on his face. He's not supposed to look brooding and murderous.

Right? Lol

In short, one coffin needed to be moved out for the entry of the person that recently died. The court became divided each in favour of either of the two coffins. So ZH pretended that he was given a dream by that dead person that she decided to move out by herself. Everyone also figured out he's bullshitting, but they played along because it solved their problem of court unrest.

Okay I see some people saying Zang Hai was silly to tell AnTu about the presence of dangerous people. Firstly, Zang Hai is benevolent, it's not that all humanity has been erased from within him just because he's training for revenge, and secondly, he only concerns himself with killing the Marquis not anyone else. So it seems normal that he would warn a random lady (or so he thinks) that he's talking to of the imminent danger. And it counts as his first lesson, that is to not be too eager to show off his cleverness to strangers.
