Its not their lack of security. Its because they did not want to stop Marquis's wife I guess, or they did not…
Then XW doesn't deserve to be in the military. We can play this afraid of offending Marquis wife card, but it made XZ's army look incompetent and less formidable being run around by a woman. I wished the scene played out differently.
the way they are letting her run around the military base is becoming annoying
Yes, I did not like these scenarios. And don't tell me it's because some knows she's the Marquis wife, offending her is a lesser offense than letting her take an important hostage. The whole scenario was ridiculous imo, and made XZ's army look incompetent

I'm just trying to make sense of the plot, as having Xie Wu there and still letting CY take out YQ is more ridiculous. And don't tell me XW thinks it was a good idea, he would not overstep his authority specially XZ doesn't know about CY's plan.

They did not know she is the Marquis wife. They blocked her in the beginning. It was XZ's personal guard who allowed her to enter. I believe she took YQ when XZ's personal guard was away, which leaves the other soldiers failing on their duty.
I feel bad for Mr Jin, he obviously has a crush on Changgyu. Hopefully he stays alive til the end. It's giving me a bad premonition that he'll sacrifice for her.
Not trying to shade the other Female General series, but this series really shows how it must be done. Despite CY being small and also having a simple mind, her growth to becoming a female general is really natural. It didn't feel forced or cringe for me. His butcher gang squad also grew on me. There was a proper buildup rather than forcing your audience to suspend disbelief and just accept the plot.
Is anyone here active on Weibo or other Chinese social media? Do you think this drama could be a breakthrough…
Yes, they're popping in Chinese socialmedia. This I believe is DengKai's breakthrough. Pretty sure he'll get mainroles for full length dramas after this.
After rewatching ep 21 with a different sub, I finally understood the confusing subtitle on my first watch. The lady/madam the soldiers were referring to is actually QQ. And that what's QM meant when he said that 'that woman is nothing' and then had her bound. And it also connects to a scene in the later episode where he said he can't let others know she's his weakness. So he's really trying to keep appearances that QQ is not that important to him.
There's a very logical reason for this from his pov, but it contains a lot of spoilers.
Yes, QQ is from the modern world. But this is something only hinted in the novel. Therefore, unlike common stories, she never developed feelings for him.

Yes, he is really twisted. He grew up traumatized, no one showed him how to love or be compassionate. His supporters only cares for his bloodline and wants to control him. Imagine being a child fed with thoughts of revenge, hate and propaganda. Add the fact that he was in physical pain from all the skin grafts. He's actually a pitiful character. Letting BaoEr live is instant death to himself (atleast from his pov). It would mean all the suffering he endured are for nothing. Plus the circumstances how BaoEr came to be is something he absolutely despised. I do think if their child was a girl, he would actually care for it.

QiMin is actually the legitimate heir to the throne. His Mom burned his face so they can swap him with the real Sui kid and to keep him safe. This also the reason why he's got a bunch of loyal followers who are waiting for him to take revenge and seize the throne. They don't truly care for him but more for his bloodline. Because he was sickly, they fear he might die soon, so they drugged him and forced to breed with QQ. The child's existence is literally a threat to his own life. Since now there is a younger, healthier boy that they can install as a puppet Emperor. They have no use for QM anymore and would eliminate him anytime soon.
So I saw on Rednote that there was indeed a deleted scene with BaoEr and QQ talking about CN being taken away. And also a scene where QM knew about the maid who was sending food but turned a blind eye.
