They should team up

When I saw Lu Changfu, I was like... Didn't he die already? Yeah, they got me there for a bit. But it was quite funny to watch how Prince Ding with his men planned and planned how to kill that guy, and then he just surprisingly dies in a completely unimaginable way. The confusion on their faces was priceless! But I realised I got something wrong before—I thought she was helping her husband secretly, but actually, she had her own vengeful reasons to kill those men. I really can't wait for them to realise that their plans align—they would be such a great and cunning team! Interesting how her Senior Brother noticed she's talking to Qingshuang and clearly knows she's dead, yet chose not to tell her anything... How I wanted to hug her for getting her mentor from Lishan Academy a steward's job in her shop! And I kind of love her voodoo thing going on all the time! P.S. The little bits we saw this episode are proof enough to say that the other prince definitely didn't choose to marry Ye Li's sister willingly!

held off watching for multiple hours because instinct knew i wouldn’t give af

not satisfactory. at all. i was generous with the l,ast few epiasodes because they were also less climactic ，but here’s where all the flaws in the show start gnawing. i can’t get behind ren’s hatred here. it makes sense for him to tantrum. i really enjoy the line ’’ why do you have to be that man’s daughtet ？’’ i actually do really like that. but I’m just not compelled in anything for this to be a pen+ultimamte crash for tehm. & a lot of that is due to mikol putting up not a single bit of fight. i said this about shu but if you really love somepony then i want to see it. what is she going to do for the one she loves ？well the answer is let go. she doesn’t fight back she doesn’t do anything ^ that’s what leads the both of them collapsing in ｡･:*:･ﾟ★,｡･:*:･ﾟ☆　　 ｡･:*:･ﾟ★,｡･:*:･ﾟ☆ I’’m impartial to reikp. she’s only evwr one note at a time. sakuraba was rather interesting. i thikn it’s rather nice to have this morality to her. if she’s not going to be complex she could at leasst be greater intentioned. hell ，nana was also funny af this episode. i hope better for these three female characters by the end of the show. nana is basically a lost±cause but who knows. that bit+part certainly took me by surprise ｡･:*:･ﾟ★,｡･:*:･ﾟ☆　　 ｡･:*:･ﾟ★,｡･:*:･ﾟ☆ this brother is hilarious though ，I’m seriously wondering what contributions he’s about to have in the final two episodes to even bother introducing him in. it’s probably the final episode if we’re being honest. lots & lots of flaws wigth this one. you saw it coming though ，not all episodes were meaning★less but when an episode really hinges on writing it’s a straw±house ，this show is terrible.

Wars, armies and decrees

Even if Yanfang is a villain and he has his own plans, I am kind of grateful that he helped A'Yu make a decision regarding Xiao Xun. I think it was the best decision they could have made, because I don't think Xiao Xun would be defending the city against the Northern forces if the Emperor had decided something else. So, strangely enough, thank you, Yanfang! Now that the war with the Northern Desert has finally been won, I am eagerly waiting for A'Jiu and Zhao to return to the capital. It's time for them to deal with all the schemers and keep A'Yu away from Yanfang's influence. To be fair, I would love to see some more scenes of Chu Tang and Deng Yi... they have barely shown them to us at all.
