I'm on ep 10 and at this point I can say that there are 2 things that bother me with this drama:1. Loud background…
Glad you're enjoying the leads. They don't get together until almost halfway...so I guess at least that's going your way since the music isn't. I actually enjoy the bgm, especially during the fighting scenes. We're all hoping for a happy ending for the leads.
Now that we can rule out MURONG SENIOR, we have XJS and Prime Minister Zhuang. Murong Yao certainly isn't the main guy, but at least we know he works with the PM who also somewhat makes a demand on on Murong Yao, and this indicates the PM is a notch above Murong.
It make more sense XJS and the PM are BOTH driving their own agendas. In the end, PM wants to rule Susha, and XJS wants to rule JinXui.
I think the take away is that EVERYONE has a tragic story in Fated Hearts. FSG = murdered mom since young and neglected by his emperor father; FYX= kidnapped orphaned, terrible childhood as trained assassin, betrayed by loved ones (XJS & Weiran); XJS = long term abused since young, and living life one day at a time now depending on a timely antidote; Princess of Susha = married someone who doesn't love her and is far away from home; Emperor of Susha = grieving the lost of his late Empress in silence, estranged from his son to protect his life; Prime Minister Zhuang = grieving his lost son and is overwhelmed with vegeance; Empress of Susha=lost 15 years thinking she had a loving marriage, but it was a sham. Murong Yao = bitter with life and fate for having been dealt a shorter stick then his childhood friend;
Is the Emperor of Susha poisoned for 15 years , hence the terminal illness? or he has terminal illness but not because of poison, meaning, naturally...like..cancer, for example?
If it's poison, I think he poisoned himself. What's the likelihood of this?
The Emperor of Susha is so slick. Purposely not naming a Crown Prince so there'd be enough time for FSG to grow up and be strong, and keep his life safe as long as possible. He's also intentionally not favoring FSG publicly to avoid bringing harm and attention from the Prime Minister. I strongly believe the late Empress was murdered by the Prime Minister.
After today's episodes, I advocate for XJS to be Emperor of JinXiu. The current Emperor is despicable and doesn't deserve to be king. Haters can complain all you like...I'll just be snacking on my beef jerky.

Today, we finally find out who the Masked Person is collaborating with internally in Susha.
Today, we see a more violent Prime Minister.
Today, we learn why the Masked Person did what he did.
and now I have to wait for tomorrow to continue...
