fyra This was the first time that I really hated Wei Shao. I'm so proud of Manman. She might not be able to physically defend herself against violence but you best believe she won't take any abuse without speaking up for herself.

ASTER What an engaging, intriguing, and thrilling episode , what a start! I absolutely loved it.The female lead is portrayed as a brilliantly twisted, almost psychopathic doctor, and her senior complements her perfectly. Their chemistry is intense, and both actors delivered damn good performances.The storyline boldly questions the moral foundation of the medical profession. Doctors are bound by their oath to save/treat everyone equally and without discrimination ,but this drama turns that principle on its head, reflecting situations that do sometimes happen in real life.Of course, it's fiction and meant for entertainment, and it looks like it's going to be a truly enjoyable watch. I'm really looking forward to the next episode and hope we get to see the deeper layers of their characters unfold. I just hope it doesn't end here!

How did I now know Pond was built like that? Wow. A bit confusing since all the details will take a bit, but I'm loving it!

KJ2025 In retrospect this is not surprising. Both of these two were the best DIYers. Duo and BingWen tended to handle things personally and did not waste funds having people work for them. Duo refused carriage rides and BingWen handled his own repairs. BingWen also argued the calmest in court and tried to keep Cao and Marquis at bay through the turmoil. He helped Zang Hai on several occasions as well and tried very hard to get the Emperor to go lighter rather than heavier in punishing. I think the only exception was his demand of immediate harsh punishment of the ‘bandits’ that burned down Duo’s home. Zang Hai thought to cover evidence but maybe this was the only retribution BingWen could bring for his friend’s death. These two must have been very close for Duo to trust him with his family. And since he handled repairs, Duo may have had conversations about his son and tunnels sneaking in and out of the kitchen. We will probably not be given this background story, but it is quite likely these two were the upright thorns that tried to keep the corruption at bay. I don’t know why he made a point to help steer the son. I don’t know if he saw Zhinu as hope for the future or best suited to derail the past and present. This part we might get an answer to as things unravel.

The friendship between Emperor and Kuai Duo spares Zang Hai his life for now. It is curious why this son was chosen when middle son seemed best choice for Emperor. There is a story there. We get to see more of what happened. Duo was questioned quite thoroughly about travel route and who knew what and when. Emperor almost has Cao crazed look about seal. It also has different appearance. In the cavern the seal had three fish on the side and eerie green glow which is why I originally thought he found something carved from jade. Duo made no mention of fish and said he had no clue how to make seal work. He also gently reminded Emperor how powerful he was without it. As the Emperor talks he points out how aware Duo was of his weaknesses. He wants to move Duo from a job he loves and is good at to a more political job that would put him under Emperor’s thumb. Duo politely refuses and asks to settle with his family in family homestead and the emperor agrees without further persuasion. This also feels a bit off. Duo and Emperor had similar abilities with wood and most likely also with puzzles. So it is quite likely the emperor was aware that Duo was lying about seal and how to make it work. I can’t shake the notion that the emperor called for his death and wanted proof. This is where Marquis steps up with his plan for trophies. What happened for this to make him calm minded rather than horrified? If the emperor didn’t command this third person did and was close enough to emperor to be obeyed. So all of this is twisted together. I think once Duo handed the seal over his fate was also sealed. I do not know if emperor had anything to do with the collateral damage. That seems more like a Cao /Marquis way to handle things. The last childhood scene of emperor and Duo showed him having to leave his common friend and bond for royal duties. So he was already equipped for that separation. And Duo was also aware which is why he could give the Emperor a non working seal. Even friends could hold secrets against each other when beliefs and goals differed.

I went into this show with already high expectations and somehow, but I did not expect to be this blown away. From the very first scene, I was completely locked on my screen. My jaw dropped and stayed open for the entire episode. I even found myself clapping at the end, overwhelmed by how good it was. Yes, I literally applauded in my room and even begged the walls to clap with me!The performances were outstanding, every actor brought their A-game, and the chemistry, the tension, the pacing all of it was spot-on. This is what I signed up for!!I can not wait for the second episode!!

NargizMammadli China doesn't do BL very much. I started because I smelled a good bromance from the edits. Let's see, I'm very excited 😻 Now everyone knows that Yue Chi is dead, but I couldn't quite understand this part. Yue Ling Er is so cute. Yue Chi cares so much about him sister Yue Ling Er. Yue Chi looked so beautiful dressed as a woman 😻 It was so funny that Huo Jing Heng chose Yue Chi out of all those wives. According to Yue Chi's sister, he spied on Huo Jing Heng day and night and gathered detailed information about him. This information really seems to have come in handy. The first episode was good. I hope I can watch more bromance scenes in the other episodes 😻

Chakri is introduced in this episode. The dynamic between him and Khanin has already peaked my interest. We are in for a very exciting, hilarious ride with these two. Let's see how they will play Charan

Their union might have started off rough, but I like that both are taking the initiative to not be hostile towards each other. Whether it's for political reasons or done with genuine intentions, the simple gestures of kindness sets the tone for their marriage.

estar took me ages to finish this ep.... Aish - 1st off Zo asked Joke for tips on getting Nita, not on dating - considering he dated her he should know her well. so basically Zo was asking for inside info about Nita, not a course on dating - but that is what he got. even he seemed to forget what he had asked Joke for. but all this culminated in Joke getting what he wanted & that was worming his way into Zo's life. *******************************************************************************************************the fact Zo has started to "notice" Joke, while he suddenly is losing interest in Nita i really don't get - cause, just cause someone new pops up in ur life doesn't mean ur blind to anyone else, let alone someone u have been crushing on for, for over a yr. *******also didn't get his choice of story, when reading to Nita - what was she supposed to do - say that she loved the story & found it romantic?!? when it was about a woman in love that was tossed aside, while her lover went after someone new???? he should've reread the story he read to Joke - *****************************************************************************************don't get the writing here. but anything & everything to get the mains together i guess - like the trip Zo had booked (for 3 people mind u) suddenly he is going alone??? oh well -

When Luzhou was in Ruicheng with his family an accident occurred precisely a blast off, and his xiao di and mother were traumatized and his mother agreed with his decision to return back home cause she doesn't want to stay at this dangerous place for even a moment more. His dad opposed it but futile. Xu Zhi went to Beijing and met Luzhou's friend. And the guy playing the guitar seems to be our second male lead named Jiang Yu. A handsome sml. She lost her star earings which was chosen by Luzhou and Jiang Yu helped her to find it. Luzhou's dad is forcing his mom to send Luzhou abroad but she cares for her son and can't send him there, they are even talking about divorce and Luzhou definitely looks hurt because of that. Jiang Yu looks interested in Xu Zhi.
