Aramintai

The guy had an army with him - he could have just shown it right at the gates before witnesses or demanded an official who could authenticate it to come, nobody'd dare snatch it from him there. Waiting for duke Hua might be the only reasonable reach of logic, but it was never mentioned in the drama. And also, since he had an army to protect him, he could have retreated outside the city to wait for the duke, instead of having everybody arrested like dumbasses. He let down so many people in his army. Lots of strategic military decisions he could have done, but looks like he wasn't the sharpest tool in the shed here.

I still to the present episode can't figure out why ML's brother decided to stash the edict instead of showing it publicly when he and his army entered the city. He even reasonably got arrested because he didn't have it on him. I've even rewatched some earlier episodes and there was nothing. This one is looking like a serious plot hole, tbh.

Still unclear. Tomorrow we'll know for sure when all episodes air with express.

They are this form because of their hair buns - notice how they nicely go behind the pillow? If those pillows were big, those buns'd be ruined. Basically lazy people pillows, for those who don't want to redo the hairdo every morning.

Same logic with Japanese woodblocks. I've seen somewhere those geishas sleeping with giant wigs just like that on those blocks. And Japanese swear by those woodblocks that they're good for the neck.

The square ones are still plushy, they're not Japanese wood blocks.

ML is being overly protective and obsessive over FL, jealous of every shadow too.
ML's brother's widow overhears that ML is going to war and panicking decided the leads need a baby asap. She orders an annoying nanny to watch over FL. Next thing upcoming is tricking ML to ingest an aphrodisiac. The woman needs to mind her own problems, tbh.

Episode 35 is another one of those slice of life, silly filler episodes, with a bit of cringe from ML and his brother's widow. One thing of note is they want ML to go to war and replace that official killed recently by SML's faction.

This one didn't age well, lol.

It got scorebombed by low int romance lovers who got confused by the genre, fast paced elaborate plot and non-frontloaded characters. As well as by haters as part of that ongoing smear campaign going on against the actress since the start of the year. This drama is one the best she's been in overall quality wise.

Tbh, they swept Mo Jingli under the rug for half the drama. He had potential to be "love to hate" type of villain, but they didn't give him much screen time.

I watched that whole drama, it was overrated af. For ginormous red flag you can't fix fans only. And romance was barely existing until very late episodes.

Villains here are one of the most disappointing aspects in general.

SOKP, lol. You mean those borderline rapey ones? I guess there’s always audience for those…

Which episode you at? There was one scene where ML vomited blood out of nowhere just cuz he was stressed.

Only if there are no other candidates and even then they may not want to - they look like they just want to live a quiet, peaceful life.

That’s like whole cinema globally, lol.

My family members watching this drama dubbed FL’s uncle “Aramis” for his musketeer moustache and being the ladies man, lol.

Well, at least she’s capable of it, not a completely one-dimensional villain.

It’s not just the kisses, it’s their romance in general here.

The Double is very overrated. Over the top, blood pressure raising misogyny for the lulz of it, very annoying tropey scheming of cartoonishly evil villains. I at first thought it was some sort of satire, but they were actually taking it seriously. Watch only if you’re ML actor’s fan, or want something akin to Coroner’s Diary and Blossom. But intelligence of the plot and dialogues in those dramas is levels below U:J and Mo Li.
