I just finished my mv stories on part 1, if anyone is interested 🙂
The first video is from CSS's point of view and chronicles the beginnings of their relationship (episode 1 to 14): https://youtu.be/oZe4BYUvSIs
The second video is from LBY's point of view and chronicles the heartbreaking part of their relationship (episode 15 to 27): https://youtu.be/-rPBqEMhqAI
You can activate the subtitles in English or French to know the lyrics of the songs (both from the OST of the drama).

His dad's cousin.

It was the third princess who was burned not 5th princess, isn't it?

I think CSS is too much traumatized to think to revenge at that time but the slander will make her come to her sense and she'll definitely destroy 5th princess.

I think that will not be the case. If there was a possibility of her going evil, it would have been implied in the scene with her brother (when the 3rd princess was beatten). Instead, she was clearly shown to have empathy for others even her rivals (Empress and LBY's mother) and their clan, not having excessive ambition, hating those who break the law. It is seen she sincerely loves LBY as a descendant of the Huo clan, she sincerely loves her husband and wants to support him, she longs for a quiet life and so on. Otherwise, she would not have been so firm in the face of her brother behind closed doors.

It's a very young dynasty with a fairly natural emperor. LBY is officially the Emperor's adopted son, raised by the Empress. He is also the last surviving member of the empire's benefactor clan. It is completely understandable they are present at the engagement as elders and support.

Yes, it's good to see them move forward in their mutual understanding instead of getting bogged down in endless arguments and misunderstandings.

I don't know if it's legally to watch but I was blushing all the way through ahah

I understand what you're saying and you made some valid points.
However, I don't think it would have had an impact on Uncle Wan, for example. He only got a piece of the seal. Even if it is later discovered to be false, the one in the hands of the Crown Prince is also false. So the implication won't fall on Uncle Wan.
On the other hand, indeed, it can delay the troops and cause chaos in the army which CSS absolutely did not consider because she always thinks on the small scale, knows nothing about state affairs (and does not care neither).

What she did is very serious but I find that many people are quick to blame it all on her. She is 15 years old, never received an education, knows nothing about politics and the royal court. LBY dragged her into this mss, knows the crown princess is not innocent and CSS will do something to help. Instead of explaining to her why he doesn't want to get involved, why he wanted the crown princess to come forward, why CSS shouldn't do anything and sincerely try to stop her from committing treason, he doesn't explain anything to her, leaves her between the clutches of an intriguer and commit this enormous error which he repairs by sacrificing his family heritage.
CSS needs to change but LBY also needs to learn how to teach her the dangers and prevent her from making this kind of mistake.

I am aware of this and indeed it is very serious and I hope this will be addressed again in the future as she needs to understand her mistake.
However, she did it for a specific purpose: to replace the missing seal. She didn't do it to order troops something the Emperor doesn't want. Unlike 3rd Princess. That's just what I was saying. That downplaying the vice and cruelty of the 3rd Princess' actions over CSS's dangerous but honest stupidity wasn't fair.

Of course CSS's actions are dangerous, with potentially dramatic consequences, and she needs to mature.
However, I think it's wrong to compare what she did with the 3rd princess.
The 3rd Princess was complicit in making counterfeit money (which can ruin a country's economy) for her personal convenience and even planned to have a clan executed if she got caught.
CSS made a fake seal to replace the missing one. But it served exactly the same purpose as initially, and did not endanger anyone (except herself). It's like replacing one royal coat with another. If it has the same function and is still in the right hands, that's good.
Of course she should never have done this but the 3rd Princess committed the betrayal out of a desire for money and to entrap a rival family while CSS protected her loved ones and simply helped replace a stolen item.

No, I just think the 5th prince teased her (but probably nothing awful) and the 5th princess turns this into something indecent. I have the impression the 5th prince is with LBY when this one punishes someone so maybe he knows things about CSS being almost killed by 5th princess.

I just saw episodes 31 and 32 and loved the intensity of the 32nd episode.
I believe this is the first time the audience understands LBY is not on the side of the Crown Prince.
It's also an intense moment because CSS unknowingly found herself on the opposite side of her fiancé and helped ruin his plan. I was very pleased to see her not accepting being blamed by an overly secretive LBY. He treats her like a precious little thing who is only going to be "his wife" and not a partner and it was important she clear things up. She wanted an ordinary, stable life with an ordinary man. LBY set his sights on her and forced her to marry him (even if she eventually agreed, the fact remains he forced her and wasn't going to withdraw their engagement). Therefore, instead of a normal family, she finds herself getting into the imperial family, court intrigues, and politics. Except that her fiancé doesn't confide in her his plans, his intentions, his true allegiances and so on. If she doesn't know anything about what he wants and does, how can she protect herself and support him?
LBY still has a long way to go when it comes to be in a relationship. He only seeks to be a knight in armor without realizing that sincerity and trust are the basis of a couple. As long as he hides his dark side and his political agendas, he and CSS cannot move together in the same direction.

In fact, it wasn't CGI. I was surprised as well to see the BTS and it's real.

Thanks x) I think I'll be watching it often too ahah. A girl must do what she can to endure the wait 😅

Thanks! Glad you like it ^_^

You're welcome x) That's the goal, help us to wait hehe

Indeed, he is so talented! We understand everything he feels and the progression of his feelings simply with his facial look.
It's true that, when we combine the scenes in a row, we really feel the progression, sometimes intense, of his feelings for her. And I would say we also feel she has always been troubled by him and that, if it had not been for the execution of the bandits, the departure of Ling Buyi and the presence of Lou Yao, she might have been receptive to him during the rain scene.

Thanks x)
Indeed, I like to make mv stories. Most of my mvs are in chronological order which helps to show the progression of relationships or the story. I like to use them as a summary of stories / relationships I have liked.

Here my first mv for this drama, if anyone is interested ^_^
It's part 1A (episode 1 to 14)
