She definitely more than just fantasized about him after his hero saves the beauty/英雄救美人 stunt all those years ago.

Same. Hope her xianxia days are over.

For me she only had two memorable roles including this one. All the rest she is just Bai Lu being Bai Lu - charming enough but same old same old. I have watched tons of her dramas but have pretty much forgotten all her characters.

In the hands of a good director, her acting is good. Her problem is she shot way too many Chu Yui Bun and Yin Tao dramas.

No general would be so stupid as to even go near the capital with an army and no edict in hand. As in on his person. Not hidden somewhere. That can and did get him killed.

Of course - generals with armies are never given power at court. Nonetheless they are very powerful because they have an army and can seize power. Prince Ding’s position was exactly that of the third Ming emperor who was the second emperor’s uncle with an army at the border. The difference is he marched to the capital to seize power and became one of the most powerful emperors of that dynasty. In any case since it seems all this makes sense to you, so good for you. 👍🏻

Well, she found a way to keep the ones she loved close to her when she needed them most. And because she believed, they were indeed with her every step of the way. There was method to her madness.

I don't think its possible to be angrier at Yao than he is at himself.

Indeed - they are scholars with free will to choose to defend their beliefs and principles with their lives if must be.

That is not really the plot hole. The plot hole is that Mo Xiuwen entered the capital without it. Doing so would surely get him killed dead. Its impossible he would do something like that.

To me, most of the time MDL dramas are vastly overrated. But this is one of the rare occasions I think it is underrated.

I am sad to say that most likely she really did die. But maybe she does have a sister...

What for? To kill 2 people? Why are troops needed for that?

Yeah hopefully worst case it was only 3 or 4 years of the 8 years the academy was sealed.

Let's see how it ends but yups, probably the same for me.

Latest episodes were incredibly sad.

She is dead and only Ye Li's imagination.

Occupational hazard - I work with numbers all day.😅

There is a way to trick it if you can make the in-app Airplay appear but it doesn't always work and can be a giant waste of time. That is why I decided to boycott Tencent's express. But I may have to make a rare exception in this case.

Surely you are not saying the edict is safer with the housewife daughter of an academic as opposed to in the hands of a general/fief king??? Even grandpa Xu himself couldn't have kept it safe in the face of Marquis Muyang and his henchmen, much less his air-head and completely defenceless daughter. I can only conclude that MXY's bro was a noble idiot. Literally and figuratively.
