It airs at like 3 in the morning my time lol. Sadly, there are some nights when I can’t sleep and I watch 😂

FOR SURE.

It sounds good! maybe I won’t wait to watch tomorrows episode then 😬

💯agree with all of the above. It’s unbalanced and unequal, and it probably would have bothered me less if they didn’t try to sell the ML as a badass Marquis from the beginning. Like Legend of Shen Li for example, I LOVED, even though the ML was kinda domestic but had power. They never tried to sell him as a badass in the beginning, but it developed later.

Hmm. 🤔Interesting. Because to me reconciling doesn’t mean “I’m no longer mad at you”, but more like “I am not going to break up with you even if I am still hurt” lol

Before I provide recs do you have any preferences such as the type of ending, love triangles, etc?

WAIT. So it’s confirmed that they also reconcile tomorrow?????

Say it louder for those in the back! 🙌🏻

I wasn’t able to quite follow the flow of your post. I wish I knew the timeline of what to expect. They fight tomorrow, and then there is that clip of him saying to her “what do you mean we were never together?” and then she pulls her hand away from his. I am assuming that is also in tomorrow’s episode. So do they make up in Thursday’s episode in 28? And then others are saying that they break up again either Saturday or Sunday and then they’re back together in Monday’s episode. I dunno. I wish I had the timeline and the corresponding scenes. it’s hard not knowing what to expect, and all of these clips are going around and I’m like WHEN IS THAAAAATT

That’s what it looked like.

Oh I welcome spoilers when it’s angst. I like to be prepared 😅 It’s very hard for me to sit in the middle of romance angst and wait for the next episodes to drop.

EDIT okay so is the one you just posted from episode 27?

I don’t know what post you mean 😅Honestly if they’re super hateful, trolling or extreme I probably did block them 😅

I do agree with this, and I also see that in ancient times a general’s role was not to be in the fight on the front lines. Their primary job was to strategize, plan and give quick orders as the battles develop. So like in TPoB Wei Shao spent a lot of time in the tent responding to reports and making snap military decisions instead of doing the fighting. While I would LOVE to see XZ in some epic fight scenes, I would also be happy if he got to shine in the political realm with the scheming and playing chess (and maybe stabbing a few people in the process lol).

*clicks on it so fast* Same episode? Okay so basically I need to keep saving up episodes so I can binge though the paaaaiiin 🫠.

I think I saw that one and pushed the like button. I blocked a LOT of people on here so I probably miss a lot of posts.

It makes me so nervous because this dialogue happens before she hits him 🫣 So things are only going to escalate until there’s a blow out. AAAAA but it’s nice seeing an actual fight in which there is YELLING (I’m weird)

Fated Hearts is another great one that depicts a FL and ML on equal footing in terms of badassery.

I second The Prisoner of Beauty, as it’s my all time fave. But if one of the draws you like about Pursuit of Jade is having a FL who is trained in the martial arts then I recommend Fated Hearts. 😊

💯

Mmm yeah I totally see what you’re saying, and I think I said that there wasn’t a guarantee that the outcome would have been the same if XZ joined the battle instead. At any rate, my point was that if people are going to blame XZ for FCY’s decision then the logic also follows that XZ is to blame for the battle’s victorious outcome BECAUSE he lied to her. People are blaming the Marquis for something that he couldn’t have predicted would happen as a result of his well-intentioned dishonesty, so let’s just follow that logic to its end (that he is also the one to blame for winning the battle because his lie caused FCY to go in his place). It doesn’t make sense.

To your other statements, though, yes absolutely! He should have been there 😂The army probably did suffer in his absence. But he could not have predicted that his dishonesty would lead to his wife going to the extreme of drugging him to join the battle on his behalf. In hindsight should he have revealed his identity? Oh 💯 yes. But hindsight is always 20/20. In the heat of the moment people do the best that they can with the information that they have, and without certainty of the outcome. If XZ knew that his lie would be a major factor into FCY’s determination to fight in his place, I totally believe he would have done things differently. He just didn’t know.
