criticising CZ's reaction from an omniscient viewer's POV is unfair to her tbh. her breakdown at finding out that she's been lied throughout her entire life "for her own good" is so valid, because doesn't that just make everything she endured in her first life even more painful? (and now she's found out that she still can't save her dad even in this lifetime)
the only reason she was ever interested in going to the capital is because of her dad's lies that her mom was a noble lady. (joking) if he told her she was now a mountain bandit, CZ would probably have chosen to run away to the mountains instead and be safe(r) there
Unfortunately the editing, sequencing, and script didn't get better for me. I thought it was going to be another…
yeah i think cao xiaotian (the screenwriter) was who made it great. idk what happened to yang long's camera work here lmao (there are some good moments, but the editing weakens his efforts. the production team is probably to blame)
aw i just saw a comment that said chu zhao represents the hope of ending the war between great chu and the northern desert :") her parents really loved each other even if they couldn't stay together
one thing i liked about how the novel handled today's emotional conflict re: CZ's relationship with her dad → very early on, when XYL meets chu ling, chu ling tells him how he doesn't want chu zhao to come back to yunzhong bc the capital is better for her future bla bla and a jiu basically tells him that his thinking comes from his perspective as a parent, but for the child it can be heartbreaking. chu ling thinks hiding the truth from her is the best thing to do, but a jiu couldn't stand that BS reasoning lolol (probably because of how his mom died)
the screenwriter messed things up by going for a convoluted plotline to drive misunderstandings sigh both CZ and XYL felt kinda OOC. also this just me wanting more people to check out the novel hahahahaha
eugh i can't stand people who call women the b-word (not to mention it's just a FICTIONAL character) it's so hatefully misogynistic. i wish MDL didn't limit how many accounts you can block 😪
I remember you are the novel expert, please tell me this is solved in next ep or two? 🤞
yeah i think they're both smart enough to be aware that there's someone (XYF...) playing them from the shadows. but emotions are running high!!!! chu zhao's basically losing both her parents T_T

LOL the novel and drama have already diverged in a lot of aspects so i can't even say for sure... but it most likely will, considering we're already at the drama's halfway point

“我不想再糊涂一辈子了”，楚朝不希望信任的人有隐瞒很正常😭一个个都在瞒着楚朝，打着为她好的旗号，然后还要说她不领情。够了，楚朝大王我心疼你
