No, he slept with Jiang Yu'e (the cousin) thinking it was Jiang Li.
The version I watched, they only showed him waiting for her in the alley, she shows up, and they look at each other. Then it cuts to the next day. I don't see anything implying that they did it.
Wow, step-mom is much worse than Shen. At least he was forced by the princess to kill XFF, but she burned her ex alive to protect her secret from her new husband.
just a quick question. what level is a Duke exactly? I think Grand Chancellor and Secretariat Director is like…
They might be related, but not that closely (immediate family or first cousins), otherwise his title would be Prince/King.
Peerage is just an honorific title (Duke, Marquess/Marquis, Count/Earl, etc.), not an actual job. His job is the leader of the Shadow Guards (the Emperor's secret service).
I cannot believe he is still not using the sword with all the enemies in ep 20 🤣 Why are they teasing us so…
To be fair, common foot soldiers carry single-edged blades (dao), which were considered a brute weapon. Nobles carried double-edged swords (jian), which were considered "the gentleman of weapons" though they were rarely used in actual battle and more for ceremony and dance.
If Jiang Li's brother is still alive (someone said that in the novel he is alive), then Qiongzhi's death is even sadder because she wanted to join him in the afterlife.
so heartbroken for the girls in the brothel T_TTTTTTTTT

Why can the "dumb" lady talk? I get that she might pretend to be dumb in front of the new evil magistrate, but she already had the "dumb" nickname back in the day.
