What i like about this drama, amongst many other stuff, is when the horrid people plots downfall for JL, how JL turns the situation around and use her battle of wits to overcome issues. This makes me look forward to next situations coming up and how JL with Duke will handle it.
Is Xue Li a shortform of Xue Fang Fei? After she assume Jiang Li, i wander when sometimes duke Su would call her Ah Li, is it coz of Xue Li or Jiang Li...
Everytime i see how loving SYR did love his wife XFF before he was crowned is so saddening why he could be so ruthless enough to bury wife alive🫣 as she said, she would leave if he wrote her a divorce letter...
... one of the judges - the teacher of both sisters - voted for younger sister but her reaction after listening to JY's playing the qin said otherwise very loudly... teacher was tearing up but too bad she was bought over😅
Just like how our senses like hearing a singing voice, tasting some food, smelling a familar aroma or a feeling in a familar surrounding could evoke different types of emotions, perhaps playing the qin in case of Jiang Yi and sister also evoked the emotions depicted so dramatically... Sister's playing came alive as nature, whereas JY's came alive as one's personal sufferings and despair, unfair injustice yet through this she garnered her strength to fight without giving up, even though stricken and fallen, just to emerge victorious to conquer what was before her - an informidable enemy in gold! Such deep immense depiction in 2 different ways. JY's acting was remarkable and extremely moving. Loved it so much! The other teary moved casts were good too...
