hopefully not because if she marries him, she would be in the villain side while she was portrayed as righteous…
Exactly she doesn't. But it seems that she will be "used" by the Crown Prince. I do hope, all those years in the millitary will help her brake free. Poor girl. She had it coming for being too impartial.

Yes, that's the word. You took it from my mouth. I was stunned and I still don't understand WHY. Was it through a trap or did she surrender ? It gives me chills for her. Ew.
I update links here daily with episodes of the series. Depending on your country, at the link below you can watch…
Yes, I believe in an happy ending too. The undying flower is a very important element of the plot. It is showcased in the opening credit several times. More than a symbol of resilience and strength. I would not be surprised if this flower serves to transmit secret messages in the future. Time will tell.
As for the aesthetics of the show, it is just gorgeous. The colours, costumes, make-up. Everything is beautiful. I liked that it started with Prince Jing as an anti-hero paired with a strong female assassin. The first 3 episodes were breath taking. And that sadomasochistic scene in the pool was the climax of this encounter. Because behind all the stabbing and the stranggeling, I could see Prince Jing's attraction for Mei Lin and her relentlessness. The acting is that good, that LXY and WJY was able to convey two 2 emotions at the same time; wrath and attraction.
I was even more seduced by the drama when I witnessed Prince Jing's development. From a cold and frightening "master of shadow works " who had to supress his emotions to survive killing attempts. He is now, slowly openning up his heart to love thanks to Mei Lin. Love blooms without him knowing it. And that's marvellous and poetic.
LXY and WJY are giving us such great performances. That those characters are alive thanks to their talents. The rest of the cast is great too. And the camera moves are very good.
Indeed, there is no comparison with their previous work because Prince Jing and Mei Lin are born and I am rooting for their happily ever after :)
Evidently, you are right "mutual" affection is required. The problem is that she seemed unwilling to let her "dream boy" go. So, Prince Jing has to mimick affection displays to repel her. I find this pitiful and sad.
You are totally right. Poor woman, the life in the army did not help her.
Moreover, she concealed her feelings from a very young age. She even lied, claiming that she would never marry anyone whereas she was already in love with Prince Jing. All this, certainly did not help her. *shaking my head* *sigh*
Indeed, it is just ironic that she speaks about righteousness and fairness all the time. And she can't practice it herself.
She just saw 1ML and 1FL supposedly having an "intercourse" in the open. And she find that "outrageous". I wonder what she would do if it was her in the open with 1ML. I bet she would never find this "outrageous".
I pity her because she has no emotional intelligence.
Once again, Baron Chen is barely any younger than the King/Emperor (Jiang Kai). He's 19 years older than the actress…
What counts is not the age of the actor. I couldn't care less about that. What is important is the age of the characters. I don't know Zigu's age, but generally speaking they marry young ladies around 15 years old. Indeed, you are right, political marriages could have big age gaps at that time. Zigu was forced to marry the king because she is not her dad's favourite daughter. This is just sad.
Why did they couple the princess with the king? He’s like her dad's age; it’s just messed up lol. They should…
Her dad's age. I would rather say, grand pa's age. If they pair them up, to me the king's character would be ridiculed. And downgraded to the position of a "sugar daddy". Moreover, aesthetically, it is not beautiful to watch.
Even if they saw the red fox, General Yin is still forcefully rejecting Crown Prince.
Double standards again.
She believed in the legend when she brought Prince Jing to this river, hoping to see the red fox with him. But when she saw the red fox with the Crown Prince she disregarded the same legend and left hastily.
What is good for Prince Jing is not good for Crown Prince. She will eventually marry Crown Prince at this rate.
I think producers let all this plot points unanswered for an hypothetical season 2, because Dan Ho knows that they were already in a previous story. This is why,I wasn't disturb by those plot points. To me they could have made a season 2 with other characters.

Yes he enjoyed every second of it. The guy made his first move.
As they say :
Fake it till you make it (^_<)
