Empresses in the Palace Episode 68

We are just pawns used by others

I think this is the ep where An Ling Rong Shines the most that's pretty contradictory considering that she loses everything here: her child, Emperor's Favor (well even if in fact he's never really liked her) and status and yet she was very impressive, all the powerful sentences she said and her conversation with Zhen Huan were simply mind boggling. I won't say that I felt sad for her since she asked for all what happens to her but I really pitied her, I even understand a little bit more in this ep why she acted like that even if I think it was a bit too rushed, I wanted to see more about her past and why all these years she was like that beside that she was jealous of Zhen Huan and thought she was not sincere with her. That's when she talked about her mother story that I understood more of her difficulties.

By the way I would like to know how she knew the Empress killed the deceased empress. Hope will have more answers in the coming eps.

I listed some of her quotes here, those are harsh words but unfortunately so true.

"We are just pawn used by others":

"If I was still that pure and innocent in this palace I would have died hundreds of times already." Very harsh words but in that hell that's the only way if they want to survive.

"But in this Harem there's no place for sincerity"

"the palace nights are so cold and long,how I endured every second I dare not to think"

I never found her stupid or anything, in my opinion she just sided with the wrong person that's what made her fall.

This was definitely one of my favorite ep with ep 63 and 64.
