Qin Xiang can't catch a break. lol. Is she gonna go on a complete evil tear later b/c she keeps getting in trouble?

He's a soldier. Killing people is kinda what he does. He may not kill her, but if he doesn't make her suffer I'd be disappointed.

Which Prince????

Oh and neither one of these Prince's should be Emperor. SMH.

Honestly I think - for the most part - everyone is just playing dumb.

To the book readers do one of the other Prince's make a play for Qin Wan?

I know her brother wants to slap her. lol/smh

It was a setup for the Royal drama that's all.

Yeah. And it's clear she had to wait for all of them to be in place at the same time. She couldn't afford to kill one or two and wait for the opp to kill the others b/c she may get caught once the killing started. Prince Yu's birthday was the perfect setup. Loved it!

Also I'm glad you said that b/c I never heard them say "Shifu" and I was like okay not that kind of Master - Lots of C-Drama watching I've picked up some words here and there. lol

Yeah my translations will refer to her as Master Wan and Mr. Wan since she's been in the capital.

Though they do refer to her as Master Wan as well - but I wasn't referring to that reference.

Not my subs.

Yes I know. But the translations are worded that way when describing who's who - it's also why bad translations often will call hims - hers, etc.

They are calling her Mr. Qin Wan and referring to her as "he" when she goes in to do the autopsy on the girls. They also have her dressed and styled as a man.

I do love how everyone is pretending like FL is man for propriety's sake. lol Like sure this pretty young man with the delicate features and baby smooth skin is a man. Look at the clothes! And the hair! lol

No. I think everyone knows she's a woman. The "disguise" is just so everyone willingly plays along.

Which Prince? Prince Cheng or Crown Prince?

I like how this show calls FL out on her self-righteousness and naivety. I get why she wants to cling to this pure idea of justice. But you can see - particularly after these last two cases - the wheels spinning and her realizing things aren't so black and white.

Woo Hoo! High Five!
