ALRIGHT….Time to RANT! Additional ranting is welcomed too! :)
Holy smokes!!!!! Episodes22-23!!!!!!! Those who have been enjoying this drama, I cannot express how crazy ep 22 was. I was going through all the stages of emotion. Li Ce :(, I cried so much! He was such an innocent person and did not deserve that death. Like I had a feeling it was coming, just not that fast! His memories of Chu Qiao (ugh!!!). Chu Qiao’s revenge was fascinating. I did NOT expect Li Yan to die so quickly!!! I am glad he is gone though, but I was looking forward to see what sort of a ruler he would become? They’re literally pulling off game of thrones now (sorry, I can’t compare this to any other show), killing off characters left and right unexpectedly! Biangtang’s royal family is getting picked off so quickly who’s gonna be left? Li Yan’s death was 100% deserved. Every bit of it, and god that throw with Chu Qiao’s sword, chef’s kiss! I cried a lot at the end. It was soo sad and for Chu Qiao to feel regret and struggling to move on is hard to watch. It shows she really did care for him deeply. Episode 23, man…..it was so great to see General Huan again, for how many episodes she was gone for, this was rewarding! She is my favorite for sure and honestly I like her more than Chu Qiao. But all the characters are good in their own way. It was fun seeing Lady Helian trying to make General Huan feel more like a woman than just a cold General. I hope their friendship continues through the show. I like how General Huan might also have a possible love interest? But more importantly, it definitely seems like she lost her confidence in fighting and leading after the ambush in ep 7. I hope she can get it back and fight for the right cause. Lastly, Chun’er is for sure going to become the new empress. She has lost EVERYTHING basically up to this point. She is going to go full chaos. I wonder how long she will last, considering how quick they’re killing off all the enemies lol, is there even going to be anyone left by the end of the drama to fight? Haha! But overall, these two episodes were what we’ve been waiting for, high stakes, returning characters, plot developing, it’s gonna be a crazy 20 episodes! I hope it continues this momentum now. We’re finally in the big meat of the story.
I dont know what this drama is about, but every episode i watch is exciting and good. ❤️ But i still dont…
You know, I just think of it as kind of like a concept of Game of Thrones? There are many kingdoms fighting against each other for their own benefit and the story mostly focus’s on the three main characters w/ their own personal goals. FL wants to abolish slavery and have all the kingdoms live freely with no slaves. ML wants to work alongside FL and help her achieve her goal. And then second ML wants to rule and free his kingdom with the obsession over FL because of their past history. So that’s what I get out of it, but it’s really good. I like it. Something you don’t see in the usual drama with the dark themes.
I think we can all agree that episode 19 was what we’ve been waiting for 😂 . It was utterly satisfying but I’m intrigued with what Li Yan has planned. In my opinion, he seems like he is going to be the new threat.
What happens to Chu Qiao’s character at the end? I’ve seen a lot of BTS or Reuters on Tik tok and it looks like she dies. But in the novel does she? How different is the novel from the drama? Also, when does General Huan come back? They never confirmed she died. She’s my favorite!
