This is well said!
I completely agree with your analysis of their characters and circumstances.
“They need to fully let go of that part of themselves in order for them to love the other person completely without anything holding them back”.

It will be only available from 8 PM Beijing time.

Btw I have a question related to ancient China’s history.
As mentioned multiple times in LLTG, when a person does not obey his/her elders, he/she can be convicted for defiance.
Was that really a thing back then?

I understand where you’re coming from. There’s no excuse for the path he has chosen though. It’s not like he didn’t have access to the power. He’s been given choice to shine by LBY multiple times. With his boldness, he could have disobeyed and bypassed his uncle easily. But he chose the worst way possible.

10c is surely making a lot of money. And this doesn’t include the people (incl. myself) who’s going to purchase fast track episodes tomorrow.

Ah it’s feet washing scene!
Thank you for taking time in sharing these thorough details.
Judging from the previews and the number of remaining episodes, not sure if we still get to see that scene.

Idk why I do feel it’s a kinda OOC for CSS not to confront LBY about his real identity right there and then after LBY’s almonds allergy confirmation.

In Director Fei we trust.
I love how we all trust Director Fei’s capabilities to give justice to the closure of this masterpiece especially to our main characters.

Now I am curious how CSS figures out LBY’s real identity in the novel. Do you mind sharing more details?

I think so. They did the same with A Dream of Splendor (ADoS) and ADoS’s fast track had Eng subs.

If Yanji had told Lou Ben that she’s expecting, do you guys think Lou Ben would have still taken his own life?

Very well said!
I like how they keep referencing back what has been said in the earlier episodes.
There is no meaningless dialogue in this drama.
It’s truly a masterpiece and one of a kind.

They seem to read our minds and our worries for the Empress from previous episodes.
They addressed it in Episode 43, giving the Empress and us viewers, a peace of mind.

Right. This drama is really unparalleled.
They still managed to slip in comedy in such dire circumstances.

UWOW…It’s so so good and satisfying to watch!

He did the same in the episode where CSS and LY’s engagement banquet was being held. And he still ended up seeing her.

Agree on the bad sequence. At the start of episode 44, I was confused for a second. I had to go back to previous episode to see if I missed out any scenes bc I genuinely thought I accidentally fast forwarded the previous episode.

Good analysis. It definitely looks like Ling Yi has something to do with the rebellion. Ling Yi and Peng Kun could be Emperor Li’s supporters back then. Now I’m wondering if Emperor Li still has any descendants that could be colluding with Ling Yi.
Actually, I was kind of expecting to see Wang Ling help CSS solve the mystery of Cheng Shi’s disappearance since CSS kind of helped her back then.

Agree. I have watched a lot of ancient Chinese dramas and most of the times, it’s like you said, “for love” the main male characters are willing to fight for someone no matter who dies for it.
That’s why I felt the urge to praise LBY for being level headed and not sacrificing just anyone just because he can.

Why is Peng Kun rebelling again?
It does not seem he has plans to take over the throne or something because Shouchun looks quite far from the capital to me. It’s more like a suicide at this point.
