I rewatch the conversation between Qi Yanjin and Qin Yi at the beginning of 32. Based on translations, QYJ mentioned…
The Qi Family had someone who had access to petroleum. About the weather, Providence or scriptwriters. Ep.25 when Menglin burst in on his two brothers and when questioned by by Fengzhou on why he made the unauthorized entry to the military camp. Menglin mentioned the fire and petroleum, first Yanjin and later Fengzhou looked thoughtful. Both knew something. Only Qin Yi knew that Yulan/Luo liked butter sweets. Did he send the poisoned sweets knowing that she would know that they were poisoned. To raise suspicion against the Qis? How much of what Guos and the Changfeng gambling house owner can be trusted as true? The former were paid off and the latter was kidnapped.

You are right. But Qin Yi got the Qi Fathers trust by doing it, so it must be done at least with the Qi Father's understanding if not orders. He got the person to introduce Luo's Father to Changsheng Gambling House and got the owner to rig the bets in his favor. Then he burned his house that night. Something doesn't sit right. Why go to the trouble to let him win and then kill him right away. Why does Qin Yi and his brother Lian Qi have it in for the Qi Family. Why were they separated for many years. Did he love Luo Shu before he burned house. Is that why she survived? Thank you fr making me pay closer attention.
this is such a brilliant script with literally no win-win situation for anybody! We are forced to take sides knowing…
I had a hard time distinguishing him from Qin Yi's Peng Cheng so I was suspicious. And him telling Mr Chen that Luo was going to marry Qin Yi made me think that it was on Yanjin's orders. But it was probably on Qin Yi's. The yamen gang still doesn't know about his betrayal, it seems. Sometimes Lian Qi has a slight widow's peak, but sometimes not. Then he told Cai, Han and Luo that Chen told him to tell them about Menglin. Luo might harbor suspicions from there. At the gate to Taiyuan, Menglin saw Peng Cheng bribing the guard. Maybe one more betrayal when the meet Lian Qi until Menglin or Luo figures things out. Mengling and his servant has proof that their two ships carried grain before the switch. They picked up some scattered grains on their boat before he went to sleep and the switch was made. Is Eunuch Zhang connected to the Zhao family or to Mr Liu? If there is a connection, it would probably be with Zhao otherwise why have him there.
There is a reason why Peng Chen, Qin Yi's aide and Lian Qi, Yanjin's aide look so much alike. One may be posing as the other to fool the viewers. I suspect that any time that we see them, they are actually acting under Qin Yi''s orders and are double crossing someone.
Ep. 32. we find out that Qin Yi is the one that lead the men that burned Shu's house a dozen years ago but under the orders of brother Qi Yanjin. Mr Liu is cooperating with Mr Zhao (they are usually playing go) and plans to throw Qin Yi under the bus.
Explain FL character? 🤔😅How many Male characters likes FL
Jin Nang/Luo Shu/Yulan is a woman blessed with extraordinary intelligence and determination. We meet her as a top ranked courtesan at Mengke House determined to parlay cooperation with the yamen/police to secure her enfranchisement/freedom from servitude. She is allowed to assist the police and is very good at her job. In ep. 2 we are introduced to two men who fall for her. Sheltered willful and rich Chi Menglin, The other is educated and cultured Magistrate Han Muzhi. There is a third who is very interested in her. We share the same last name.
He misunderstood Liu Wan's role in her Father refusing to release the grain for Linfen. He does not know it is because of the agreement with Qin Yi. Both stand to profit by delaying the delivery of the grain to drive up prices. He may come to understand that it is not her fault. If Lin Wan discovers why her Father is delaying the delivery of the grain, and passes on to Muzhgi, it may change his feelings. She is revealed as straight arrowed as Luo Shu. The kidnapping was a misunderstanding on her part that Muzhi and Luo Shu his broken his promise that she would leave the yamen and Linfen..
I won't call her that name. Maybe the drama would be better off without the romance.
The romance keeps us in agony and on tether hooks. The candle that attracts us moths to the flame. Ruminating, if the FL, Luo Shu wants to help people, then Magistrate Han Muzhi has the edge as he has the position and will to help his people of Linfen. And his love for her is strong and sympathetic. If Luo Shu wants to break from the yoke of her past and live a life that she chooses, the ML Chi Menglin has the edge. The answer to who set the fire seems to lie in his family. Menglin seems to have the will to investigate unswayed to where it may end up. Both men are moved to help her because they love her fiercely. She does not seek to manipulate them to help her. Their passion for her lock steps them to help her. But they don't force themselves on her. .

You must be talking about the crazy Qin Yi, the Master that others are afraid of. He has been behind the scenes manipulating Luo Shu since she lived in the Qin Mansion. He has killed some, but Lian Cai who works for the ML's older brother Yanjin (White robes) may have killed the same number of people. He works to break Luo Shu and Menglin apart.
Luo Shu has stated that she cannot trust nor depend on anyone else. Too many have betrayed or let her down. Qi…
Episode 25.From 24:34. Luo Shu is talking to the owner of the Changsheng Gambling House and she says that her Father was a minor official at the granary/grain storehouse at Taiyuanwei. At about the same time there was a well dressed man in blue talking to the military soldier. The soldier said that he didn't tell her anything. This man seems to be stymieing the investigation. Later he was caught in the net and identified as Lia Qi, servant of brother Yanjuin. He may have silenced the Guo neighbor couple and sent the poisoned sweets to try and poison Luo Shu.
Seriously I don’t think so. All throughout, we can see that she is not a person who is short sighted, selfish…
That reflects on the person using that pejorative. I may be blustery and thoughtless, but I would never use words like that. And not to hurt someone either. Bottleitupman.

Liu Wan loves Han Muzhi. She will do something to make him decide that he needs to prove himself to deserve her. Her Father is in a precarious situation due to his ambitions. Saving him which means saving her might do. Chi Menglin needs to prove that he can live without the trapping of his affluent background. That his achievements and ability to support and protect her comes from his own efforts. It will be after he lets his faithful servant go.
