One last thing that was still nagging at back of my mind by the end of the story,

'Di daughter' is a title to address the legitimate daughter from the official wife of the family. More explanation might be available here https://bloomingtranslation.home.blog/2019/08/27/ancient-china-pinyin-glossary/

My understanding was that the FL was living her 'second life' with someone else's (jiang li) identity, so she basically becomes jiang li's double.

Nooooo my liu dao tang crew 😭😭😭😭😭😭

Overall a fun drama to watch. There were inconsistencies, and unnecessary deaths. But at the end of the day, all debts were paid, revenge was served.
If I could describe the one thing that made this drama charming, it would be the theatrics. Duke su and his dedication to his concepts, from his collection of fans to his various elaborate entrance poses. The actings, special effects, and the music, packaged together in a way that feels like a very elaborate opera. And everything fits perfectly with the whole 'being in a play' motif that ties A Li and Duke Su together in the first place. 8/10

The whole team made a good call with that last minute bonus episode. Without it we would totally riot XD

I wonder why there are so many spoilers easily flying around here. Few months ago, i forgot to spoiler tag my comments on another drama's thread and when i came back to check on it, it was already hidden. So i used to assume there's some form of moderation in the comment section 🤔

No but how the heck did people even manage to get those tickets and numbers... the world is really a scary place nowadays...

It's just a matter of different folks watching different types of dramas. People who watched certain dramas, either japanese, korean, or chinese, tends to stay within their comfort zones (not everyone, but mostly). These different groups of people, of course, would have different sets of standards to rate the drama. That's why it's always subjective, at the end of the day it's just a matter of preference!

I was thinking about that too, like damn, he married his (former) step mom? That would be a spicy side story ngl

Okay finally done catching up to ep 28. But, uh, I'm a bit confused, did ji shuran died or not?

Still amazed at how compatible the child and adult casts for fan xian's role are. The kid is brilliant! All the best wishes for his future projects!

Wasn't he and richard li already act as brothers in my decoy bride?

She's a houdini.... perhaps 😬

I haven't finished reading the book yet (just up to ch 45 or so), so when i peeked at the first ep i was very confused. They seemed to deviate a lot from the book. I guess i'd wait until the whole series finish airing before watching to avoid further confusion.

Me too! Totally missed the comedy tag lol.

I have to admit that I'm watching this out of fomo. However, so far (ep4) it did not disappoint. Going to continue watching this while waiting for the S2 to finish airing.

Randomly finding the full version of this on yt. Haven't finished it yet, but so far it's chaotic and fun. Hope it has a good ending.

Okay, apparently that was a ruse, thankfully.

HeQin is weird as heck. He clearly told Wan to find a good husband because he knew he couldn't comeback soon, but when he found out she married the emperor suddenly he got angry??
