My theory is that he is protecting the ML. I can see that

Wang peng is a natural at natural comedy. I have seen her in "Crush" and other dramas...

The 2nd ML's army and the night walkers were gonna have bloody battle ..but the 2 sisters came with evidence and that didn't happen. The nightwalkers were small in number and would have suffered heavy casualties...the ML didn't know that they would come because he has sent them away

Ikr...its her tone that pissed me off. He has been fighting against uncle since a long time ...the reason he didn't cut him off is because people like the FL didn't trust him and kept making plans to kill him. It would be foolish to cut off funding from the only ally and kill yourself. Now, its because of the support of people like the FL's father that he was able to do it. Even then, it was a super risky move for him. Had plot armor not been there, this dude was done!!

My entire point is that its him who took the decision to punish the uncle. Not her! Did she punish her own sister for harassing him? Even in the original script, the sister was just as evil. She is soo biased for her own family. He isn't! He has been fighting against the uncle SINCE FOREVER. He has been guarding against him and foiling his plans because he didn't have a choice. She did call him out... but that's all she does and she has been calling him out even when he wasn't wrong. Has she ever accepted her own mistakes? Nope! Its easy for her to point fingers at someone juggling 100 things together but hard to acknowledge his bold righteous moves.
The way she was cold towards him...like he has never stood against the uncle...was WRONG! She could have advised him but instead, she tried to accuse him of harming people which he has never done

I remember him saying "the uncle wants to control me but I have different plans" and he berated him. The thing is, in politics, sometimes, you have to align with the enemy of the enemy. He had no support from any side and the mother also talks about how he has survived with the uncle's help. He had made plans to sideline the uncle but its not easy to cutoff someone who has acted like your foster father...and funded you while others were willing to KILL YOU by hook or crook.
Still, he acknowledged that the uncle was evil and took away all political powef from him.
She just nudged him but after her own sister called her out on her hypocrisy, she didn't soften her attitude towards him at all. While he takes responsibility for everything, she hides behind her FAKE PRIDE. She has tried to put some sense into tge 2nd ML as well but he didn't change his attitude.
In the end, its the ML who has the ability to SELF REFLECT. Both the FL and 2nd ML judge others but don't self reflect themselves

Oh! Sorry...I wanted to write Song Yi meng...I accidentally wrote yi ting

Yeah...probably because he just can't let go off how nice she was to the masked guy. He just wants to have that side of her. Also, she saved his entire army from the battle so he still believes that she has that girl inside her

I think she is quite egoistic...and can't accept that she was wrong about everything. Its a character flaw. I love how the actress has portrayed it. It does make the FL more interesting and human like

Forget the real life actress. She is an actress in the drama....who enters a script...now, she judges him based on the script she has read..(which is wrong) and therefore, she has secrets too.

I feel like...she is VERY CRUEL TO HIM. Now, she knows that he isn't bad and loves her deeply. Still, she hurts him with all her strength. We wouldn't tolerate a man like that girls..would we? I don't think we should have double standards for her. Also, I officially HATE the second ML

Not her running and using the Plot armour excuse 💀☠️

Myyy gosshhh 😭😭😭😭 SHE IS STILL SHOWING NASTY ATTITUDE TO HIM. She's still wrong. Even as NH, he always tried to protect people and not harm them. Nobody trusted him except the nightwalkers soo it was difficult for him to help people. I don't like unnecessary sass in FL when she should do some self reflection. I want her to suffer now

As in, she's the actress. She is not that woman..is she? Even she has a secret...that she misjudged him because she read the script (and god knows how she read the script because all the characters are nothing like that). She has bigger secrets

I mean, you can't punish an innocent man because you have BIAS against your Ex. That's...not how that works. Its anything but justice.
Besides, she kept planning his murder and accusing him of things he didn't do. I get her...but I am not gonna go as far as saying it was "justifiable". The 2nd FL was also a jerk in the original script! She doesn't hold it against her as much. Its just her bias and even HER SISTER called her out on it

Ikr...I don't understand WHY HE LOVES HER at this point? I mean, she's literally NOT SONG YI MENG. Doesn't she have 2 identities?? But she hates him for lying. Besides, she kept planning his murder ...Of course he was hesitant. He wanted to take his time to make her understand but she was hell bent on making NH the villain

You do understand that the characters are completely different in the world she is in right? The sister's character is different, the ML's character is different and the 2nd ML is also quite different...the ML's mother is very different and it has been acknowledged multiple times even...by the FL. At this point, her blindness is just a bias she wants to hold.
Not hating the character...she maintained the ANGST and made it interesting but... the clues were there

Hahahah! They are good at doing comedy and its extremely difficult to do

If its not for you...then its not...after watching soo many cdrama tragedies, I would say, its right up my alley because it parodies all of em. There is literally EVERY CLICHÉ plot in this except that they are deliberate with it and are making fun of it. I am at ep 24 and this show HAS MY GRIPPED. I am counting hours

I agree...The fact that the heart of the audience is breaking for NH shows how well he has acted. People threw a full tantrum in the comments against her when he cried 🤣
