The Long Ballad Episode 3

Li Chang Ge's side kicks

Says beggar boy 'I knew I picked the right person, master please let me follow you!' Princess Yongan, once Li Chang Ge's beloved cousin, prays and seeks help for Chang Ge's safety.

OK now I know that other guy name, Shuyu...…

OK now I know that other guy name, Shuyu... Wei Shuyu. It was very sad for her that the one she trusted the most betrayed her. I don't think her uncle did tho. I mean... Did her relationship with her father was good enough that she kept mention it? It looks she was more likely love her uncle more though in the past. Well she was definitely troublesome. I don't suppose he had backup plan for the seal.

The uncle has a soft spot for Chang Ge

Chang Ge's close friend gets a token to freely enter the new Crown Prince's palace (Chang Ge's uncle who usurped the title). She attempts to kill her uncle who stops her execution, and instead traps her as a guest within the guest chambers of the palace. The uncle is clearly sensitive and cares about Chang Ge to an extent. Not sure how that's going to help though. LOL.
