the premise of ml stopping fl revenge and after talking about marriage is straight up misoginy (in my opinion…
Another one taking sentences out of context. Some of you guys really can’t pay attention or understand what characters are actually saying or their intentions , lol.
Btw, I think ML got sick not only because FL ditched him. The guy was working non stop for half a month with little rest to update the celestial calendar to gain merit. He wasn’t feeling well when he finished it. Add to that what happened later and you get exhaustion turned mental breakdown. The guy was just sleeping it off, lol.
Btw, isn't it ridiculous as a premise that one guy can kill a hundred servants in a mansion and they all let him like cows for slaughter, instead of running away from the mansion? They weren't killed in their sleep to make it believable. Nobody even questioned this at all. They could have at least burned the place down to make it more believable and cover their tracks. Another thing, with so many soldiers there actually doing the killings, it's kinda ridiculous that FL or her mentor couldn't find any of them later to testify. Did the villain ordered all of them killed later? And third, it's kinda ridiculous that soldiers were running around at night and nobody saw anything except for ML and his father. No neighbours or passers by. I guess the villain cleaned up after himself well behind the scenes. But for such a smart guy he sure looked like a dumbass giving that cliche villain exposition and gloating while FL was fighting his goons.
The revenge arc of Peiyi feels very similar to the revenge arc of Ling Buyi in Love Like The Galaxy. Both the…
Also, FL didn't have any concrete evidence here. If she killed the guy, the only evidence left would be her's and ex-army guy's testimony that they heard the villain's confession. And it's not a fact that the ex-army guy would have stayed to tell it though, as he is wanted. FL was already not in good graces with the emperor concerning this, so I'm sure he wouldn't have believed her this time either. But keeping the villain alive allowed the emperor to hear the confession from the horse's mouth, so to speak.
In the first case FL would have likely been severly punished for murdering a high ranking official, maybe even executed, with her father's honor not restored. ML was right in stopping her, even though he got so much flak for it. It's gonna take time and patience again from him to turn the stubborn FL around.
In the second case, she just got a slap on the wrist for poisoning the nobles.
I didn't mind the ML for stopping FL from killing the right chancellor, as FL would have been in trouble and also…
That's just such a weird take on ML and you've taken a sentence ouf context. First, FL was angry and started lying right off the bat to him in that dialogue to push him away. Second, what she did really looked like she didn't love him and used ML and the wedding to exact her bloody revenge. He got hurt and believed her lies. It was clear nothing he would have said would sway FL. He asked if she really thought he was that petty of a person to worry about the marriage ruining his family's honor and then accepted what she implied and left. But none of that was true, you thinking he was worried about this is nuts.
Btw, for those who were paying attention - the leads saying they don't owe each other anything now is a reference to an earlier episode. ML there said that people owing each other is normal and is part of developing a relationship. Now we're back to square one with FL cutting ties to him and her friends at the Bureau. She doesn't want to hurt people for her sake, but ends up hurting them anyway, lol.
Hi, can anyone tell me if there’s any romance in this drama? Or it just a mystery thriller, thanks for helping.…
Don't listen to the other guys, there's romance here. It's slow and ramps up in later episodes. The leads were even planning to get married in ep 28. But then some things happened. But it's not a romance focused drama, it's a mystery detective series.
Wdym? You haven't watched this yet? There is romance here.
Everybody's asking it like it's a deal breaker. Again, yea, there is romance here, ffs. It ramps up significally only in the later part of the drama though.
I am wondering if Emperor is trying to protect his dead father's legacy. Previously, one of the characters said…
The emperor was the emperor 15 years ago as well. He got fooled by the villain with false prophecy and clever plot. The villain did it because FL’s father started digging into his corruption schemes involving army funds. There’s nothing more to it. And the emperor does hold the villain as irreplaceable because otherwise he’s afraid he’d be deposed by the villain’s sympathizers. He’s got many children to spare though and FL is not even his own.
It is very boring, also Bai Lu is miscast for this role,she is too fragile and petite Wang Xing role is meh. But…
I dislike corny plots so couldn’t get into How Dare You either. But Jadewind is right up my alley, I like no-nonsense, serious dramas with mysteries. And I strongly disagree with your opinion about the actors.
Btw, I can no longer see oddly cut scenes in later episodes. Looks like they vigorously cut episodes in the beginning to a point where they reached the required episode count and then stopped.
I finished ep 29 and the ML is still in bed heartbroken after two weeks, while the FL has come out of it. I doubt…
However, if FL didn’t care about ML, she wouldn’t have stumbled after he left. Lying was hard it seems. It’s complicated now. And I love the small details of her holding his gifts close to her. She gave him back his compass, but now was clutching the cloth trinket and kept that poor bunny lantern. And ML was holding the cloth trinket as well, even though she hurt him to the point he got sick. It’s small details like this, gradually switching to first names and meaningful talks in quiet moments that makes this a sweet and entertaining romance. It doesn’t always have to be something grand and larger than life to make it believable.
And she really did almost lose it when he stopped her from getting revenge, she had that awesome crazy look in her eyes. But when she was recovering, she also clearly had doubts. And no doubt she still plans to do something about the villain, but I don’t think it’s gonna be bloody revenge again. She better think of something clever to get him capital punishment.

I'd like to get all episodes tomorrow too, but I'm not optimistic.
