You are right. This is assisting her indeed.

Helped her? I understood that she left and he did not try to stop her.
But, I did not know he helped her. He is very protective of FL, even if she doesn't know it.

Yes, this is what I sense from the way he behaves. I wonder when he will show it.

At first I thought ML was a gray character, but as it goes. He seems more and more complex and deeply kind. Although on the surface he appears tough.
I am begining to like him. Because I am sure he will soften up.

From what I know about asian writing, you get what you sowed. This is why I wasn't surprised to watch SML die. If I remember the high number of casualties he was responsible for.

I agree, In western writing, characters find solace in death. The "leaving las vegas" kind of feeling.
Characters survive hard destinies as long as they can and die. But at least, they had been "happy" for sometime.
PS : nice to see you :)

Let's hope so. They made me feel all kinds of emotion swith just this episode. ^^

Indeed, it begins very well.

I am amazed how the show is starting. Very good.
I thought about some inconsistencies, but thinking about it more. It is logical.

Yes, good observations.

Great analysis, thank you. The flower and leaf on Jiang Ci's head tells it all. ^^

That's the main problem. I don't do it because I want to avoid misunderstandings but I get your feeling of despair Though

I had a glimpse of the previews and yes I also think that the mother has something to do with it.
But honestly, I was waiting for this to happen. This is a leverage the mother could not resist using. I had previously noticed that girl in the intro credits.

Yes, I know, you don't think beard means widower. It was just a theory I thought about.
The Emperor was 50+ 60. This is what I call old.
However I know that in the middle ages, people use to die between 30 and 40 or before.

I think that the Emperor told MRJH that he was already old and that he had to marry Luo Mei. I just remembered it.

I enjoyed chatting with you, good day!

In this case yes beard could mean old.
PS : thanks for the recommendation. Nice to have some hapy endings :)

Indeed, the whole story is in the title "Kill me love me".
He wished so hard, this poison couldn't kill her. But unfortunately MRHJ did end up killing her. As sad as it is, he suffered the loss of his only love.
It is very sad, but beautiful at the same time because he could marry her and live with her for some time. I think 5 years minimum until his coronation. Because Mei Lin was called Empress when MRJH died. So she was there at his coronation. He resented himself for killing her.
And he died at a young age. At least he knew happiness.
"Leaving las vegas" kind of vibe yes :)

(^_<)

You are very much welcome. I appreciate your humility and I understand that I should have said that it was almost several weeks ago, and not "the last time".
As I answered with a spoiler tag. I wrongly thought that, this person would look at it and recall his rudness. But I was wrong, because he chose to pick a fight again.
Anyway, I will try to discuss the ending with you.
Let's forget about this misunderstanding. It is all in the past.

I think that, if the directors and screenwriters took the time to name her "Empress", it is for a reason. I don't think they made the maid servants call her Empress just because they randomly refered to her like that or MRJH asked them to do it.

Honestly, I am not surprised they did not show us all those moments you stated :
"- finding the flower
- taking it by Mei Lin
- information that it worked or prolonged her life
- any happy moment of them together after Jing He's coronation"

Why? Because that would give the drama a bright happy ending. And film maker prefer open or sad endings.

I am trying now to find, as I am writing to you, if I can remember a C-drama with a bright happy ending. But I don't find anyone.
looking at my watchlist, I have found : "Melody of golden age"and "Love O2O" . And I am disregarding on purpose that in "Melody of golden age" the sidekicks died.
Consequently, with such an almost inexistent amount of bright happy ending.It appears to be normal that they gave us what seems like a bittersweet ending.

Another thing. It is true that during the drama, we did not watch any scene with a trial. It is as if the trial of Crown prince MRXL was purposefully not shown. But this doesn't mean that he was not trialed.
The crew did not show it. Is it because it was expensive to shoot those scenes ? Did they cut them, like they did with some of Bi Wen Jun's scenes.
No clues.
But we know that the Law was put in practice during Tang Dynasty.
This is why I choose to believe that they respected the law, even if they did not show any trial.

Yes he had beard, that's true, but he wasn't an old man. The coronation happend 5 years later. So MRJH was probably 35 years. It is not an old age, it was maybe because he was crown as Emperor. Because I have never watch any drama where the beard meant the man was a widower.

Thank you for your clever observations :)

Yes, I agree. No drama slump with this awesome drama. I barely listen to negative comments, I always make my own experience. Happy to join the fun he he he ^^

I understand you. Although I think he developed a weird way of loving her. I agree that he loved her from a very young age.
Like you I was afraid for her safety, because even if she was a warrior, she had a soft spot for him. And he could have easily hurt her.
Luckily he never did. What a relieve. Indeed.
Moreover, thanks Goodness Luo Mei redeemed herself as a warrior, although she kept loving him.
She is a beautiful character. She could have been developed more.
