It’s not out of character to sulk and lose yourself in work if a girl ditches you in a bad manner. And he always gave her space when she was angry with him. I agree with the rest though.

I just love how people here are looking for more hidden villains behind the villain and nobody got a clue 😂. Writers did a good job at keeping us in suspense.

Exactly. She did all that, but somehow ML is getting all the flak.
She basically toyed with his feelings, falsely accused him of being petty and admitted to using him. She obviously was lying to push him away, but poor guy took it all as truth and got heartbroken.

Just a reminder we still have some good stuff coming:

He's not her uncle, but I'm sure we'll see him again, because he too wants revenge on the right chancellor.

You're drunk, go to sleep.

Why would her brother help somebody harm his sister? I think it's more likely the other way around - somebody wants to harm her because of her brother. Or, if it's a rival concubine, she just wants to eliminate her and take her place at the emperor's side. But again, it's just my opinion, it could be something else entirely.

It's somebody else. There are lots of concubines at the palace who would like to take consort Shu's place, for example.

I feel like the villain will get killed by somebody else or will take his own life. It's been a recurring theme in this drama. FL can't be allowed to do it, but he just gotta die for her to be able to move on with her life.

Her character has difficult personality - stubborn, self-righteous and very single minded when it comes to her revenge. ML is very fitting here - only calm and patient guy like him can weather her bouts of bad temper to then later reason with her. He gotta get over his depression and get back to her, and not allow her to push him away again. She looks like she has calmed down, but sure as hell won't apoligize first, as usual 😂.

Examples of her involvement? So far the only thing people can pin on her is the deleted synopsis likely copied from a novel, which didn't even explicitly stated which concubine is involved, and that she's the villain's sisiter. The novel had a different villain, btw, not the right chancellor.

Some people have attention span of a gold fish or are watching dramas in the background. Obviously they can't help but misunderstand and take things out of context.
This drama's characters turned out to be pretty nuanced and it rewards those who were paying attention with references to previous episodes.

I wonder whether I'll be able to find where to watch it.

Just like that acupuncture bs and eating tigers balls.
Thankfully they also practiced herbal medicine, which actually could help.

There’s really nothing divisive about it, he did the right thing. And it was FL who started spouting bs to hurt him. Some people simply weren’t paying attention. Some people are simply hypocritical and can’t accept the role reversal here. And some people wanted him to allow FL to exact bloody revenge, even if it cost her her life.

Not for FL, but for consort Shu this time. But people were really dumb back then, believing in all sorts of omens. Even ML, while not believing that celestial bodies' movements can bring calamities by themselves, throws coins for luck divination and gives excuses why he can’t even open a liquor jar 😂

Somebody obviously is digging under Consort Shu so that she’d lose favor with the emperor. Pretty elaborate.

Hmm, I wonder where it will be uploaded for the West.

So are we getting the rest of the episodes tomorrow or not?

It's just a trope at this point, lol.
