Well, there are a lot of domestic violence cases where husbands torture their beloved wives for no apparent reason. In this case, he even didn't have to love the girl - he might just be horny and she was willing. When she became clingy he started to hate her. Third master Qin also killed women whom he favored so much. A normal person cannot understand femicide because it seems there is no reason behind it. It's true, there is no reason. Some men simply kill women because they can. It is not unrealistic. It happens in real life too. There is a website https://anitsayac.com/ which is a digital memorial for the women who were murdered by their husbands/boyfriends in Turkey. You can google translate and see, real life femicides are more horrible and irrational than the drama.

I wish he would be the male lead of a drama where female lead goes back in time and decides to go after the second male lead :)

Thank you very much. I'm at ep 27 and hate him so much. I really wonder what was his reason to favor his good for nothing son that much. Anyone with eyes could see he was no king material.

Can anyone give me spoiler about the emperor's ending? I hope he died miserably. I started to watch after the show ended but even now I can't stand that man. He is more horrible than the second lead.

Dear drama fellows, where can I watch this with a good translation?

There are so many "ons with bossy ceo" type of dramas. Fl's being a teacher was something novel and I liked the webtoon because of it. I think they changed the plot because of morality reasons and I a kind of understand it. But still, when they change the plot into something like this, just don't say it's positively your because it's definately not.

She is not the mistake, he made it deliberately. Actually, it was love at first sight. The guy wanted her to be defiled at the brothel then killed, but after seeing her face from the balcony he wanted to indulge himself once.

For married daughters and granddaughters, mourning can only be possible if husband lets them. Manman mourned her grandpa because wei shao let her. For daqiao, she is not even considered properly married because she eloped and couldn't get her elders' consent. They need to cook the rice, if not her parents could claim her back. That's not an issue for manman because she is properly married - no one can claim her back, doesn’t matter consummates or not.

Well, that's because they need to adapt the drama according to modern people's preferences. But, even in ancient times, marrying only one woman was not that rare - that's why people adapted monogamy very easily after reforms. Both in ancient china and ottoman empire, common men usually married one wife because they couldn't afford it. Wealthy and powerful households could demand their daughters to be the only wife. If every men could have multiple wives, it would create so many unmarried men walking around - military and monastry, yes, but that wouldn't be enough.
Because of this, in ancient china, even though women's being jealous and preventing her husband from taking concubines was a reason for divorce, women didn't stop being jealous and they had many suitors before marriage. It wasn't like what we see in dramas, I accept that but there is also this truth - a man can take seven wives, what will the other six men do?

Well, I'm not chinese but based on my more than a decade drama watching experience: if a subordinate is referring to the lord of their household/manor/fief, he calls him lanjun. When a woman marries into a noble household she also calls her husband lanjun. But this is a more formal title, to be more intimate she should call him fujun. Normally, if you meet a noble lord which is not your direct superior, you should refer them according to their title -wang, gong etc. And if you don't know their title but you need to address them politely you could just say gongzi, which means my lord/sir/master. But, according to my understanding you should need a noble identity to be called as lanjun, but a merchant can also be called gongzi.

I've watched first four episodes. It gives me Les Belles vibe. I liked that drama very much, and I enjoyed this one so far. Song Weilong seems improved his acting, and maybe because of his stylğng but he looks a bit different.

I'm not chinese, but with my long experience with chinese dramas, wang means a prince with a fief. It also can be translated as king, but not absolute ruler, only a vassal king. Synopsis is a bit messy but I assume female lead's father is the general we speak of. She is waiting for his return to capital - male lead is a general, so as female lead's father.

I can't say she approved or not, but she understands. In the book's first timeline, she was very good to FL's cousin sister and supported her till her death. It wasn't that she liked the FL or something. She understood politics are politics and they weren't personal. In the book, FL's father even went Wei family's funeral and grandmother welcomed them. It was his mother who was irrational and misplaced his anger. And both in the book and in the drama, FL's father wanted to help them but grandpa and uncle declined.

Grandfather betrayed them, because Qiao family doesn't have a strong army and if were to go, they would die together. He chose to live and protect his people. ML's grandmother understands this, that's why she accepted their marriage and supported her. ML and his clan are all about honoring their words, but women know better that if there is a chance of going back alive, then stay alive.

In the book, wei shao also seven years older than her. I think casting is just fine. LYN is rocking as wei shao with his psycho smile

I think second male lead of back from the brink should fit your description. Riley Wang is so underrated I wish he could get more main roles

"My brother married a damon" said every single sister-in-law in the world.

Well, in ancient china, and in some of other chinese influenced turkic and mongol tribes, men would be given a courtesy name when they come of age. In turkic tribes, after he joins battles or shows some heroic acts. His mom is calling him with his childhood given name while his friend uses the courtesy name. I'm turkish, and even though renaming children after their show of heroic act is a long lost tradition, people still jokes about when parents take too long to decide a name for their newborn - will you name him now or wait for him to show some heroic acts?
