La Gata

She was murdered by her mother-in-law, Ye Li's grandmother, who confessed to Ye Li in the garden before a big branch of the tree Wanzhou and Ye Li planted fell on her and slowly killed her.

Agree. I'm glad I watched 31. Fei Bai did the right thing when he gave Xiu Yao the hair dryer treatment, it was needed. Now Xiu Yao is on his way up to Lishan to make amends and bring Ye Li back.

For him, the belief that she was with him just out of duty to a promise made to his brother was earth shattering. For her, being given divorce papers by the love of her life..., he may as well have removed the ground from under her feet. Both of them are at fault, both of them are victims of their own fears.

Assuming nothing goes on about them in eps 31 to 34 because they are not in a 1' teaser doesn't make sense. They could or could not be part of them, we won't know until we watch them.

It's a 40 eps drama. Today we get 31, so 9 left if you have already watched it.

If she leaves him and goes back to Lishan Academy he'll go completely grey, what could be more stressful for him? Of course he'll go entirely grey.

The general wants revenge against Xiu Yao for killing his father. I reckon he's going to get in cahoots with Zui Die to lie to their emperor and provoke a war.

General Li is now in charge of taking Zui Die back for punishment. I don't like that,

Nothing happening?Are we watching the same drama? As for chemistry, Ye Li and Xiu Yao have plenty of it in their relationship, the way they understand each other, their sweetness and how committed they are to each other, all these are shown at every step. Mad passion is not their thing and it's not what this drama is about. Both Bai Lu and Cheng Lei are nailing their roles, I think this is their best drama so far.

That's wishful thinking. I feel you.

Qin Cang was born out of wedlock. The marquis did not recognise him as his son, so he was given his mother's family name.

Her name is Zui Die. I can only hope she honours it.

And a massive hypocrite to boot. All the evil he's done for his own gain but he keeps telling the ED he did it for her. He's despicable. He needs to die by Xiu Yao's hand.

The general: "Dieeeeee!!!"
Xiu Yao: " Hold my beer".

I'm not sure what her background is. She's been travelling around and she intends to carry on doing so, but she's a local, she's home now. I don't think she's a doctor, she said she had picked some medical knowledge during her travelling. She must be from a noble family, when she asked Qin Yang to work for her she even told him she had more influence than the marquis. She seems to have a very high status, she sat at the empress consort table during the garden party.

He said that to the ED to put her mind at rest that he hadn't kept anything from her. I don't think we actually need to see his training in order to assume that's the first thing he did once he got back on his feet. The FL's watchful eye didn't extend to his time at work, which she doesn't wan't to share as she thinks it's boring.

That's my take on it, anyway. I don't see his present fighting fitness as an oddity, particularly when in real life 3 months is in many cases enough to heal -re-broken and re-set bones as long as there is no necrosis.

Isn't the marquis also Qin Feng's father? In that case they aren't stepbrothers, they are half brothers.

He's been back on his feet for a while now, of course he must have been training. He only needed to get his strength back, he already had his martial skills.

They are just soldiers obeying orders, probably there under instructions to stop any outsider getting in, not to figure out if or why they are all dead.

Why, do you want him to stay crippled? 🤨
