So this time, the new case will take place in the snowy mountains and a dreary mansion. In the last scene, Qin Wan and her senior brother went to visit their eldest senior brother's wife. Seeing the wife lying on the bed with a thick blanket on top, the scene somehow reminds me of [Kingdom], the Korean zombie series.
Ep. 12 is the trip North to the Capital. It gets really cold and white with snow, but that's not the only chill in the air. Getting shelter at Dr. Sun's place looks fraught with danger. Are there really 'mosters' or is it just more human caused evil? His Highness better gird his loins and squeeze his horse's flanks to prepare for times ahead. The drama really has great visuals and the soundscapes make it properly creepy.
The Qin sisters get on my last nerve. I agree with Princess, being confined with them will only encourage cursing.😝 Prince Chi tried to get her to stay while he wrapped up pawnshop case, but she felt most appropriate to travel with her family. So Prince gets her a new family. She is now a 4th daughter. 🥳It was hilarious to see Prince knock down Qing’s proposal before it could be heard. He figured out how to get them related rather than married.😂 I am glad Wan has a new family. And Grand Princess will prevent any strong arming the Qin family might try to pull on marriage alliances. There is a deed for something in that box and Grand Princess wants our girl to have options. As she wanders to that elaborate rocking horse, she is remembering her youth and dreaming of grandbabies. She nudged the Prince to speak up but he figured he’d won when he shut up the other guy. Haha after seeing comments I read that wrong, she was telling him not to gloat. But I know whose children she envisioned on that rocking horse. Before Wan leaves he gives her the token from his family, and then shamelessly camps out on her daybed.😂 I was curious about pawnshop but guess we will learn from flashbacks later. The place where Wan and family stop is weird. The people are hostile and the weather seems likely to trap them there. The doctor was friendly at meeting, but that ‘healing’ spot for his wife looked more like an occult sacrifice area. That looked like a corpse lying there. The locked up patient and people being drained with organs taken puts him in Frankenstein territory. The cousin I found off putting when he was going to let those guards tear into those people. Granted they were an outraged mob, but they were obviously outclassed with fighting skills and that would have been slaughter not defense if continued. At first I was happy they were staying with the doc, but now I want the Prince and carriage to arrive at same time to get them out. But I am pretty sure they will be stuck in goat horn city til the mystery is solved. 😝 I am glad the princess is with her and I want to see Wan get lessons with that weapon. I know her senior isn’t part of the weird doc cult, but that son in law wreaks of weird like the doc. One or both of them is hiding a lot of dark under a fake sunbeam of goodwill.
