Tbh I'm loving the gracefully grotesque character she's protraying. If she wasn't here, half the charm and stakes…
She was a pleasant surprise too. I was treating her like a background character and didn't think she'd turn out anywhere near as important and entertaining as she did eventually.
ive always liked DYX as an actor but this is my first time watching a drama with the FL and she is seriously acting…
It's my first time watching her too and she's very impressive, specially in emotional scenes. It's hard to believe she's so young. I'll be looking forward to her future projects.
Actually, I really like this about the series. In other dramas, the main characters always have a positive arc,…
Indeed, she should take your advice and ditch this terrible man and find someone better or remain a single strong independent queen that she is. Unfortunately she's stuck in cdrama world where she must put up with such an insensitive, unlikable, power hungry, blind and selfish guy who needed to be cancelled like, yesterday. If only she moved on instead of waiting, but at least now everyone can be exposed to this hypocritical lowborn man's true face after tasting status. Imagine being married to Zhao Ling, I'd surely be crying tears of blood. Not everyone wants their lobster buttery or their steaks juicy after all.
I mean I would find it odd if, after 5 years away from home fighting a war, he didn't appear to be a little cold/distant/restrained...…
This. Idk why people are expecting the same emotions that were put through the grinder and broken down over the years. They really don't understand what war and loss does to a person who cherished life and love above all else and it shows. As far as he's concerned, he's still on the battlefield with the guillotine over his head. He can't be the same way he was before because he longer sees the same world he did before. Doesn't matter if the content remain unchanged when the container has changed.
especially the newer episodes. she doesnt even want him to sacrifice himself like that. I feel like his ambitions…
I believe it don't match now because the tingyun who pushed him into this path had different thoughts and priorities than the tingyun now. The old tingyun would've liked the current arrangement. Zhao ling has been walking on a road of no return because the further he goes here, the more dangerous it gets and the more intensely difficult it becomes to return.
But tingyun has been reflecting over and over ever since they had to abruptly separate 5 years ago. Back then she thought about her own position, about mutual success within the system she was from. But after the parting she only regretted they didn't have more time and that she didn't love him the way she now realized she wants to when they still had the chance. She had to grow and realized what was more important to her than anything else.
And now that they reunited she can see how much he's changed and how much pressure he's taking on to continue charging forward, being surrounded by shrewd dangers all around, when all she feels now is worry for his safety and wishing to remain together. It's no longer about reputation, prestige and power for her because she already had her footing in the world.
Can someone explain who is Miss Wu? Is she a concubine of Zhao ling or Yu Jing Xu ?
Zhao Ling can't even marry one girl in over half a decade, I don't think he's ever getting concubines. Surely it's gonna be YJX who's harassing other women just because his is mid and likes selling books.
