everyone is elated at the 2nd couple getting certified - to me it's neither here nor there. am happy for Guo but other then that i wont say i was that into watching them "get it on".... i like the character's well enough when they connected to the main couple but their own plots don't really hook me in - know am the odd one out - but it is what it is. ****************************************now Wu Suo Wei on the other hand can be the main & only focus & i'm all in - love the dude & he makes me smile by just being on screen. so the whole kidnapping that could've turned was lighthearted fun - where a father-in-law was getting to know his new son-in-law to be.. considering Chi Cheng & his personality it's very fitting that the father is as whack as the son. ***********but find it kinda hilarious that the only way the father has to get his sons attention is to kidnap sh*t that is important to him.

Stealing the Ledgers

The dead bodies, Chu Zhao is only here to get the Ledgers which shows the the connection between Sun Xiangfu and teh Chancellor, so he won't do anything about getting justice for the victims but he knows Xiao Jue will get justice for them. He Yan plans to do something for the dead women, Ding Yi met He Yan while investigating about the missing women. Xiao Jue's view of previous He Rufei was good, but after all this sending Assassins and arriving late at Mingshui battle, he's rethinking if he was wrong about He Rufei all along and he has always been this treacherous from the very start, hearing about He Rufei trying to curry favor with Xu Jingfu, maybe it all started long time ago, and he has been doing all this to pledge alliance to Xu Jingfu. When they were all eating in the hall He Yan revealed that her vision was restored the very night she got blinded, at that moment Young master Sun's expression is funny😂, while Chu Zhao's expression changed. After seeing all the luxury dishes, Xiaojue suggested calling the merchants and asking them about the tax collection, since there was a shortage of funds and provisions, then how is Mr.Sun so lucky to get all this. Sun xiangfu kept signalling them to keep their mouths shut by coughing, while Xiao Jue as his plan asked them to come out for a walk, at that moment He Yan coughing to silence Sun xiangfu's coughing was satisfying, when he realised that He Yan(CL) understood what he was doing. When they reached the temple (more like burial place), few missing women were those merchants families. He Yan gave every logical explanation as to who's the killer, it's Sun Xiangfu and Sun Ling who killed and hid these women, the statues are proof. Revealing that in the warehouse, there are no funds and no provisions, it's all empty. Sun Xiangfu was silenced by Chu Zhao (killed). The folks are grateful that Commander Xiao helped to bring justice to the women, and offered to help him with the Funds and Provisions, the original purpose for his visit to this city, the folks collected money and grains. Chu Zhao finally asked for her name, they've met a few times, but didn't get to know her name. Ahhhhhhhhh! Chu Zhao whispered in her ear "Mr He, your sword dance was truly peerless, you resemble a celestial from legends" 🤭, while Xiao Jue got a bit jealous and impatiently asked her "Won't you pack?" Ofcourse she will, cause you agreed to take her back. Xiao Jue was smiling when Cheng Lisu and Song TaoTao were bickering 😂. T

Justice served

The race continues for ledgers. He Yan is demanding Xiao Yu get justice for the twelve young women buried in courtyard. He assures her he has a plan but doesn’t have to confide the details. There is yet another banquet of expensive dishes and luxury items. Sun is put on the spot to provide his tax ledgers and the merchants that did not comply. The merchants are both encouraged and discouraged to eat. Xiao Yu sees they are not free to talk so he suggests visiting a newly discovered sight. The merchants find their daughters and they want answers. While this disturbance distracts, aides from both sides vie for the ledger. Chu’s guard was better at subterfuge and escaped with the real ledger. Sun and son are demanding evidence and Ms Song shows up. He Yan also cites getting the statue makers to verify dates. So now crooked official tries to get guards but the commander’s soldiers show up instead. When he tries to confess, Chu’s guard killed him. The girls were reunited with families for proper burial and the three unidentified were moved to a peaceful location. I am hoping the henchman was allowed to stay there. It is a fitting spot. Hopefully official and son will join him. He Yan has ticked off her brother’s tactics but still has no clue why Xiao Jue holds a grudge. She has not learned the depth of treachery her family gave to the general’s family in addition to her. When she finds out, the two swords will unite and bring hellfire reckoning to them. Can’t wait to see it. Cheng was just animatedly describing the venomous woman he was glad he avoided when she exited from the coach and chased him down at high speed.😂Chu also reminded He Yan of her sword dance letting her know he would hide her gender. I am still not sure why. He looks so gentle and it’s juxtaposed with pure amoral ambition. The next level villains will have to start showing since their underlings are getting removed from play. The merchants have sent them home with provisions to show their gratitude. Xiao Jue was overwhelmed. It has been awhile since his efforts have truly been appreciated. This episode was a satisfying watch to see justice served and the death of fake general’s henchman.

Wu Suo Wei's family might have been poor…

Wu Suo Wei's family might have been poor financially, but they were the richest when it came to TLC. now baby Wu Suo Wei is all alone & being an only child... kinda breaks my heart & yet he is more fortunate then someone like Wang Shuo, who is a broke human-being, regardless of everything he has in his life. but i don't feel sorry for Wang Shuo, i do for his brother cause he has turned into his nanny & sadly i doubt he will get to live his life, as he has to watch-over his brother 24/7. this so ironic ********** ****************************************************************************************************************************************Chi Cheng is an utter d*ckhead for throwing barbed-words at Wu Suo Wei, when he's in mourning. i get that he's angry & it annoyed him that the 1st words out of Wu Suo Wei's mouth, were "...what r u doing here..." Chi Cheng can be a petty sh*thead, the fact he loves Wu Suo Wei doesn't mean he can't be mean to him. he threw him out of the house, cause he stayed out all night, as if Chi Cheng hadn't spent the night out himself & there was no apology or anything afterwards. ************************so him breaking Wu Suo Wei just so he can then turn around & hold him close, isn't something i am happy about - but it is fitting of Chi Cheng's sociopathic personality - still doesn't make me like this any better **********************************************************************************************************************************************************************************well have to apologize to YueYue, she was being "motivated" by Guo, who wasn't wrong thought wise - the lie about why Wu Suo Wei & Chi Cheng met needed to come out & get cleared up, so they could have a healthy relationship but Guo was totally wrong in the way he went about things - IMO. ******************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************the rest of the ep was the polar opposite of how it started out, guess almost 2 eps of heartache & sadness was enough. not that i am complaining, this was fun & much needed after all the tears - just happy to see baby Wu Suo Wei back to his old smiling, naughty self

The Ghost who crawled out of the Netherworld

The episode begins with Ding Yi trying to test if He Yan's blind. The timing of He Yan's fan movement and opening of eyes was really good. She really let Ding Yi think that he tripped her, while she intentionally did it. The more I think about it, the more I want to lunch Sun Xiangfu's face, how can he be so shameless. Ding Yi replaced the scented ball with poison intending to kill He Yan along with Xiao Jue. But He Yan grabbed Xiao jue and told him that someone has placed a poisonous ball on her and fell into the pond with him. Ding Yi finally understood that He Yan is faking Blindness, cause it's too much of a coincidence that he (HY) fell into the water right after replacing his scented ball. For non-novel viewers (She went to the toilet, and deliberately fell into the latrine pit, and got herself so smelly and dirty, no one was willing to touch her, and all the clothes and accessories on her were thrown away after that, that's how she got rid of the poisoned ball). She's really taking advantage of him while faking Blindness and he just have to go along with the uncle nephew act. That was such a good scene when He Yan just suddenly did the thumbs up just near his chin, and he immediately raised his chin to avoid her hand. Just need a Xiaojue in life. He Yan stepped out of the room dressed in all black ,while XiaoJue left the room dressed in all black right after. Ahhhhhhhh when they were alerted that there was someone on the roof, He Yan immediately ran away, but she and XJ crossed paths and exchanged moves resulting in a draw they, they recognised eachother and immediately went in the opposite directions, XJ was already in his room and when he was undressing himself for bath, she entered the room, now left wide eyed 🤭, although was still pretending to be blind *that's naughty*, he said atleast take off your stealth outfit before pretending 😂. Ahhhhhhhhhh! To avoid Ding Yi, she submerged into the bathtub (the very tub Xiao Jue is in), too cramped🤭, XJ was kinda left wide eyed when she entered the bathtub just like that. Ahhhhhhh! She just put her hand over his mouth to match the stealth outfit guy she crossed paths with, XJ's eyes widened 🤭. Xiao Jue is curious why Ding Yi was after He Yan and why is she involved in all this Ding Yi and He Rufei thing, but she really knows how to avoid his questions. It's obvious to XJ that Ding Yi was sent here to kill him. He Yan led Ding Yi to the Temple, he knows it's not Cheng Lisu, but he still couldn't guess who it was, but He Yan was dead set on taking his life, (I like the details like in the novel when they were battling in the temple, the clouds were rumbling, and lightning in the sky). The place used by the Sun Family to suppress vengeful souls, will become his burial place, perfect. I've been waiting so long for this dialogue (I'm the ghost you killed, crawling out of the Netherworld just to take your life). A FIERCE BATTLE! A REALLY FIERCE BATTLE! IT WAS SOOOOOOOO GOOD. He Yan vs Ding Yi, their battle was amazing. Slashing him with her sword twice continuously and specially slashing his eyes, he went blind, deserved it. Her serious, voice tone was perfect when she was talking to blind Ding Yi, about He Rufei and his purpose as to why he wants to kill XJ, that was so perfect when she just said "I'm a ghost of the one you murdered, I clawed my way out of the Netherworld, and came here to take your life" that waa so satisfying! Xiao Jue heard most of the conversation, but only Ding Yi and He Yan knew what happened between them so even if their words were indirect, they both knew what the other was saying, but Xiaojue who didn't know about her identity couldn't make nuch of what he heard, ecen though he asked He Yan about "Who are you exactly?" "What did you mean by I'm the Ghost of the one you murdered? ", he made it clear to He Yan that he knows She's a woman. The story she told him about teh seer was lame, but afterwards with passion in her eyes she told him about her aspiration of becoming a General to protect her country, that made Xiao Jue stare at her. Ahhhhhhhhhh! Helping her clean her wound near shoulder!! But he really is persistent asking her about why did she kill Ding Yi. She's so good at giving speeches, XJ even pointed that your speech was flawless and convincing but do you think that I'll believe that?? 😂 He wants her to leave if she can't tell him the truth. Ahhhhhhhhh! Finally the mole part, blackmailing him with the detail that only an intimate partner would know such detail 🤭, the red mole an inch above his waist. Feinu just doesn't like to see his master with He Yan (always thinking He Yan's upto some inappropriate thing 😂). They found the missing girls bodies buried in the temple, and He Yan's grip on her Umbrella tightened, signifying how she felt.
