WOW all this onion cutting. I get heavy Story of Minglan and Rebirth of the empress of military lineage vibes. Directing and cinematography are outstanding and the acting is beautiful.

the leads do care for each other but the relationship won't go anywhere. This is a beautiful tragedy through and through. A prince who puts everyone before himself and mute, traumatized girl who is set to marry someone else. He vows to never marry or have children from the beginning and he is a man of his word. A great watch even with the tragedy I also advise to read the novel. Different in some aspects but at the core the same.

No you are safe. The leads even though they may not say everything, they understand the other and are willing with wait for each other. Other people may admire them but there’s no third party in the relationship.

No the emperor is a different character from lanxi’s father. His father is the ruler of one of the kingdoms but not the emperor.
