Ep 25 - why is there no blowback for Jin Qi's mother & grandmother setting him up with traitorous Zheng family?Also…
This is a GREAT question. I hope someone asks her this in the coming episodes. Like, "Your judgment cannot be trusted. Look at your first two choices!"
what the ML did was terribly wrong as it was selfish (but let’s not forget undeniably brilliant) move because in their world, the emperor’s words are absolute, however, it’s hard not to feel bad for Lanxiang because in the previous episodes, Lanxiang would bide her time to get herself out of a bad situation, this time she couldn’t because again, the emperor’s word are absolute. Though there’s death as the other option but it goes against her mother’s last word: live
i mean, no one ever died from falling from a cliff in cdrama, but wtf is that lazy explaination. Somehow we miraculously survive... how is this different from " somehow, Palpatine returned" ?
Also nice addition in this ep how Scholar Lu implicitly understood Lan Xiang's true family origins!
