Looks like the drama is set to release only 1 episode per day starting Monday with a halt on Wednesday Sep 30. The express package will be available on October 5th. Looks like its time to put this one on hold till all the episodes air but that's going to be damn difficult.
Remember he had an eldest 1st younger sister who was married in thr capital? Her marriage was abusive but it to report it to the authorities he had to endure 100 lashes in her place, coupled with the fact that he broke the husband's wrist and back bone earlier he had to endure another 100 I believe.
Episode 33: Read this online and looks like a poignant moment coming up....
Han Liang passed the imperial exam as the Tanhua and proudly rode through the streets in celebration, while Lin Jinqi lay collapsed on a rattan bed, covered in blood after enduring 200 strokes of the cane to protect his younger sister. Confronted by his triumphant romantic rival, Lin Jinqi panicked, fearing he would lose the woman he loved, and squeezed Lanxiang's hand tightly despite his excruciating pain. Showing neither avoidance nor regret for her past lover, Lanxiang gently offered Han Liang her congratulations and tenderly held her husband's hand in return. Han Liang achieved glory, but Lin Jinqi emerged as the true victor by winning her heart. True love in maturity never needs to prove who wins or loses before a cheering crowd—it only requires a hand willing to hold yours when you are at your lowest.
Episode 33 preview, Han turned out to be the top scholar and Jinqi is down on a stretcher. Seriously give me a break! But the way he holds her hand is so heartbreaking. We talk about the traumas of women in marriage but this has been one man who was completely traumatized by his previous marriage!
Wow don't know what happens in Ep 31 to make lanxiang soften up but Lin Jinqi's words "All I ever want is for you to be my wife" was just mesmerizing and sweet 😋 Can't wait!!
The entire drama is about how no one has free will when it comes to marriage - Jinqi’s betrothal to ShenJialan,…
Thank you Peachblossom, that was a sound and reasonable explanation unfortunately many fail to realize that in the comments section for the past 3 days. People just see the forced marriage but failed to understand the era of the story, a real pity. Looking at this drama from a modern time lens would just not work, it would spoil the entire thing!
My dear we are talking a previous dynasty, do you have any idea what it means to be a woman then, much less a…
Darling then you're not suited for this drama, time is precious so don't waste your time watching something you hate or doesn't make yourself happy. Entertainment is called that for a reason you know. If you are not able to relax, love, laugh and enjoy the story you should better stop. Yes you have thr right to hate but its still a pity for you.
Does someone know when the scene of Jinqi requesting the edict from the Emperor happens, I saw until ep 27 and I did not see it but I believe that the trailer had the scene. Any idea why it is not here yet or did they cut it?
My dear we are talking a previous dynasty, do you have any idea what it means to be a woman then, much less a maid who just got her freedom. Yes lanxiang saved the Lins but even then it was not necessary for Masters to free their slaves for that. They were treated as commodities not humans. They live or die for their masters and they are entirely at their disposal. Remember what the Shen father says about slaves in the 1st episode? It's there in the script for a reason. They are similar to livestock in that era just like how today you wouldn't go and ask a chicken, shall I eat you or should I consider your feelings? Lin Jinqi letting her go free and not taking her as a concubine but main wife itself is a huge upgrade impossible in ancient times. You have to consider the era in which they lived, if you can't get that then you are more suited to modern dramas not the period ones.
Don't worry we are happy and I believe I'm one in many who have personally cleared their work schedule tomorrow…
Trust me I've never done this for any drama before and I've been watching C dramas for a decade now but today I took work from home and juggled all my meetings just to watch. Didn't even have the patience to wait till evening 😒
I can't help but love Mother Lin at episode 27 don't know how she is gonna act later but episode 27 she nailed it. Despite what the Lins are a beautiful family together ❤️
