Wu Jin Yan, how was I unaware of your existence in this world? Been watching dramas for like 8 yrs now and damn!…
isn't she just the best ^___^ i have to recommend checking out Story of Yanxi Palace so you can experience her breakout role as Wei Yingluo! WJY turned her into a very iconic character
Some people say too much time was wasted on the step mother arc. That is Jiang Li's arc. Should she not get revenge…
+1!!! i have my own reservations about the conclusion but i personally feel that they spent a reasonable amount of time on the whole stepmother/jiang family arc. JL's suffering started that day 10 years ago, and today XFF has finished carrying out her revenge for JL (who is the reason she even came back in the first place). now she can move on, live well, and focus on avenging herself!
a cute bts video of our leads from ep 29 🥺 https://h5.video.weibo.com/show/1034:5046286030929941 (according to an interview clip, WJY tapping WXY's chin with the fan was unscripted hehe they just went with the flow)
based on that trailer clip, there's a good chance he's indeed still alive
not in the ep 30 preview! uhhh i think it might've been spoiler clip compilation (from later episodes) that i saw on my timeline. i can't find the link right now oops
saw some tweets talking about princess wanning's obsession with XFF and i have to say it's reminding me of yingluo/chenbi (SOYP) and zijin/yuehua (RF) dynamics lmao WJY has chemistry with the ladies too ☝️
I need some clarification... in the exorcism bit, Jiang Li pretended to be Aunt Hu's daughter that was killed…
imo i felt that Aunt Hu's suicide note was the final push they needed to believe that JSR truly caused all the deaths in the Jiang family
i'm not sure about the affair though — when they caught her with the diviner dead in her arms it'd be reasonable to assume that they were working together in the exorcism plot (not to mention that JRY woke up and knew it was poison) but it's not so clear to me that the grandmother and JYB figured out that the miscarried baby was the diviner's
in any case, i also wish the fallout was grander! i wanted to see the grandmother and JYB deal with the realisation that they were complicit in the deaths that JSR caused, no matter how indirect. it would've been a great narrative conclusion to the justice that JL deserved after her family abandoned her
they signify ranking! i don't remember specific rank titles (the drama doesn't really mention it either?) but…
yeah, a lot of the purple ones seem to indicate more senior positions (grand chancellor jiang, chancellor li, the secretary of judicial review guy, etc)
