😏 I agree. She should have slept overnight in the garden, and wakened sick. It is Winter, and the place must be cold at night. The bath scene was not necessary.

Episode 17, last ten minutes!

I watched the first seven episodes on Youtube, then switched to dramacool. Dramacool had fifteen episodes while Youtube had seven episodes only. I have an adblocker app on my laptop, so I didn't see any ads on youtube. Also there were no popups on dramacool.

I am sure the writer kept the concubine story in the drama. That is bad news for the viewers. Watching her for the next 20 plus episodes is going to be 🤯😬🙄😒.

When she did it to Mingxi, he was startled. She doesn't know that he loves her. Poor guy!

Grandma's doily collar...ROFL
In Outsider, Kitty Zhang wore a neck scarf with most of her officewear. I don't know if she was trying to cover up her big breasts, but it only made her look bustier. The rest of the outfit or overcoat looked good. The reason I mentioned Outsider, is because I finished the drama yesterday. LOL

Anle jumping Han Ye in almost every episode was too much. Now, she was jumping Mingxi. I really feel sorry for the men, who are jealous whenever Anle is in the room.

It sounds very fishy. When Anning finds out, she will go for the jugular.

CP became the People's Prince, then the public relations went nowhere. LOL

The Crown Princess Contest is taking a long time to execute. They have been talking about the crown princess placement for many episodes. Shouldn't they have brought all the women into one room with Old Lady Empress, and give them some competency tests?

I bingewatched fifteen episodes in two days. Mingxi and Anle are forever meeting, but not doing any strategic planning. It was interesting when Anle was Vice Minister, but now, she just hangs out. Han Ye talks and thinks in circles about Di Zi Yuan. It was also interesting when he went on a field trip. Now, he just hangs out.

Cuteness meter:
Han Ye 10
Anle 9
Mingxi 9.5

Simon Gong as Crown Prince reminds me of Hyun Bin playing Crown Prince in his movie. The expressions and gazes look the same.

Han Ye emight have been 11 at the time of the Di massacre? In the flashbacks, Anning looked younger than ZiYuan. Ten years later, it looked like Anning was an older sister to Han Ye.

He must be a minor prince to be MIA for years. It would be fishy if he went missing, and the Qin King did not look for him.

When I saw that scene, I thought Northern Qin has been undercover for years. They did something similar in another drama that I watched a few years ago.

I was thinking the same thing, watching Outsider with Vengo Gao. The men were dressed in fine men's wear, but the women had some fugly fashions. It wouldn't take much to find nice women's fashions for the dramas.

Thanks for the explanation. I was skeptical when I read that she never became crown princess.

I agree. Mingxi keeps talking about their mission, but there is no strategic planning going on.

The only plan that we heard about, was the beggar imposter living on the Mountain for ten years. Anle has a navy of thirty thousand soldiers, but we haven't seen.

LOL Does someone fall off a cliff in this drama? Like Destined?

Strange that Mingxi locked her up on the mountain with a male bodyguard for an unlimited duration. Why didn't he give her a female maid bodyguard, as well?

She's been groping Mu Qing in almost every scene. She knows how to play him.

She might blurt out to the Emperor and Marquis Zhong that that the real Di is planning a revenge plot for ten years.
