Cheng Xuan also died??? Before Cheng Xu even? .............Seems the drama will deviate a little from the original.…
At some point, I may revisit this but with FF mode. Tbh, apart from CX dying, I'm actually secretly wishing for someone to inform of CX having survived to the final episode with an "acceptable" closure. And that everyone else has died instead. Is this too much to ask? Hope is a beautiful thing but I really don't want to get crushed...
Ep 25 -This emperor has reached rock bottom and started to dig. How can you treat your soldiers like that? He…
He's totally lost the plot, and it's all because of Mowan/ Moxin. They didn't really have to take the trouble to start a rebellion. She could've just destroyed him silently behind the scenes...
1 episode in, so far so good. Can't really recall what happened in the first 2 seasons but just going with the flow. Miu Kiu Wai still looks the same, hasn't aged a bit. But Raymond looks older and more weathered.
Beautifully written article, thank you for sharing :) I've watched L&R and The Eight, and heard about how good Go Ahead is and also the light hearted My Unicorn Girl. Yes, L&R for me really is the C-drama of the year!
It is so funny that most of us here wishing ML early death, hahahahaha. I, too, hope him to just leave Ming Yu…
I've watched up to 29 before giving up. At this point, I just hate everyone and want them all to die. If I continue to watch any further (up to the next generation coming into play), I might end up hating children and wishing them dead as well. For now, preservation of sanity and physical health is the priority. Someone here hopefully will text me the episode of CX's impending passing so I can witness his glorious release from this torment.
Prince Su (Jun Qing) is planning a coup in the form of armed rebellion, peasants' uprising and political revolt.To…
For the first question... The father wanted to protect his daughter (Mowan) from being implicated in any possible rebellion plot (the father isn't aware of Prince Su's plans or that Mowan and Prince Su are working together) so he deliberately sent a message that implicates himself, knowing that the message would be intercepted by the Emperor's spies. He does this to allay any suspicion on Mowan.
For the second question, this is a bit convoluted... Basically the Emperor begins to unravel at this point. Mowan begs the Emperor to release her father, and takes the blame for any wrongdoing. Prince Su wants to protect Mowan. So the Emperor tells Mowan to kill Prince Su in exchange for her father's life. The exchange between Prince Su and the Emperor then focuses on the latter's lust for power over kinship and lack of trust although the former had compromised and sacrificed so much for the good of the kingdom. Just as the agitated Emperor attempts to strike Prince Su with his sword, Consort Li enters the room to beg for her father's life. The Emperor then becomes enraged and questions Consort Li for wearing the Empress' official/ ceremonial dress. He then continues to rave about how Moxin was the only one whom he had ever loved and who was fit to be his Empress, thus rendering Consort Li an emotional wreck. The episode ends with the Emperor losing the plot and alienating himself from every one close to him.
This comment is too funny! XD
