He was summoned by the dying emperor to protect the crown prince. By the time he arrived, the emperor had died,…
First off, there was no rightful heir at that moment.
Second, I didn't say anything about killing civilians. Since he wasn't with the dowager faction, why did he decide to aknowledge her coup? She even wanted to sit on the throne herself at first, which was rebuked by the people.
Retreating his army from the capital was the safest option to get backup and help the crown prince's faction.
He also could have gone to the Lishan mountain to get SML and protect him, and consolidate the crown prince's faction around him.

But what he did was both aknowledgement of the legitimacy of her claim to the throne, guaranteed execution for treason because of lack of edict and loss of 30k people's lives.

I still dont get why the empress dowager has a soft spot for ye li’s mom like i get all three they used to be…
She was a power hungry bish who manipulated her friends. She even wanted to sit on the throne herself after the coup, but people wanted the emperor, so she had to place her son on the throne.

Whoa, that rating is wild! I thought it was just a standard romance drama—what am I missing?
It's 10% romance, 40% revenge, 50% trauma.

I'm also thinking about it.. Empress Dowager's flashback scene reveals that it was ED who asked Yeli's mother…
Lots of shoulda, woulda, coulda that was never clearly stated in the drama. For such an important plot device in the story, that drives the conflict, they should have shown everything clearly about it.

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.

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

Episode 35 is another one of those slice of life, silly filler episodes, with a bit of cringe from ML and his…
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.

Underrated!!! My heart brakes whenever I see 7.8 rating. Like, wtf is wrong with ppl. Yes, I love romance, I hoped…
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.

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

Bailu has great kisses with every actor, i specially liked her in sokp I believe the general tone of their relationship…
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.

I thank the director for the subtleness in this drama. For once, I dont see OTT blood vomiting scene during fights.…
Which episode you at? There was one scene where ML vomited blood out of nowhere just cuz he was stressed.

Can ML be the emperor with Ye Li? They must compensate them for all their suffering.
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.

Paper windows and doors in cdramas are either unbreakable or fall from one kick depending on the plot requirements.
That’s like whole cinema globally, lol.
