Omg, that moment when it’s supposed to be sad but I found myself like shiyi and smile stupidly when we realised he wrote her name. It’s a confirmation of his love for her. To her, his name is all she can think of, a secret of her heart, and guess what girl, to him, it is you 🥰🥰🥰🥰 it’s very sad when they say goodbye, and I love how they let us savour these sad moments (a bit narcissistic lol). I also love how he is just stunned as her when they heard of the marriage news. Both actors did very well, was crying with them, too 😭
Same. I'm not waiting for Douban score either. I lost my trust with Douban since FIYS and ALP.
I always get a good laugh when people would try to convince me this drama/that drama is bad/good because its douban score said so. What a sheep they were 🤣
There is an article listed her crimes: apart from the usual “family wrecker/third person”, there is also business scamming (this is most widely known), where she faked what her company do, use her fame to talk it up, absorb a huge amount of investments from everyone, put it on the stock exchange, inflate the stock price, then once she got a lot of money, crash it, file for bankruptcy, the investor lose money but she and her husband are fine. Then there is a story of how she relentlessly harassed someone until the husband die and the wife went mental and this is even after they flees to Japan. Idk how true this story is, but the company scam is widely known.
the empress did by plunging General QinYan into the disgrace of having an affair with her to force him to give…
Lol, if the empress was any good at political game, she would have much better control, longer longevity, instead that reign was supposed to fail. Many many dynasties fell because not many of them are that smart lol.
Don’t even need to look far, look at us: we supposed to be smarter because we have seen and suppose to learn from many downfalls and faults from our last generations, yet we are not doing much better. We still use plastic, we still destroy the environment to have an easier life, we don’t think for our next generations, for the greater good. Individually, you might argue we are more aware, thanks to the Internet, the little voices get louder, but we are still no where. Take the pandemic, ppl still chose to go out, find reasons to defy the laws, instead of thinking it will save hundreds
So I feel this drama is a bit slow ,, there are hardly anything happening besides the romance between the two…
Uhm there’s a quote in the novel that describe their relationship: “his love is not like the intense heat boiling constantly, rather like the rain, slowly absorb into the earth”
Oh yeah I want to ask why Shiyi doesn't follow her father's surname and instead uses her mother's surname?
The father is a live in husband, in order to marry ShiYi’s mother, he must accept a few conditions, I’m sure one of them is the children bear the mother’s surname. Also back then, the surname matters, so which family has stronger political power get to use their surname, not only that, many people would love to use the stronger affiliated surname to get easier access to power and fame. That’s why the Liu clan/Cao clan is so big. Blood is blood, as long as they have the blood of the family running through them, carrying the name just make it even more official
Technically, he didn’t. He’s sad that there is something he can’t do, and something he can’t get. But he told CSY that the oath is part of every decisions he made, and all those decisions lead to one thing, to keep the peace. Literally right there, he told her he picked the people, the foreshadow lol 😕
Sorry I deleted my post earlier, because I’m not sure how much you want me to spoil the plot, but things are…
Haha, I know 😜 based on the trailer 😝 but geeze it’s frustrated to read it in the novel lol. It’s the same as the drama but worse! Because it’s a lot shorter lol. I do have to say their moments together is very sweet, though I wish he should have kiss her more 🤣
So I’m now at chapter 10 in the novel, and I’m a bit conflicted. On the one hand, it’s great to see that their love is the same as in this drama: they seem to love each other, understand each other, he is just as he in now in this drama, very considerate, gentle and always think for her. But all these good points are also the negative points 🤦♀️ she waits and waits and waits. Her love is unwavering, which is great to see, the yearning is crazy and really good for grasping the female readers, but it feels endless and hopeless and it seems he doesn’t STRONGLY show it. And here lies the problem for the modern sequel, because if they follow the book, and I have to live through mostly they are separated and she waits n waits, and barely any lovey dovey moments, imma be real angry lol. They were husband and wife and all they did were 3 kisses 😒😒😒 got to the stage where I’m almost skim through it to get to their parts lol 🤦♀️
I don't think so? He's been busy protecting the border from such a young age so I don't think he had many chances…
It seems she might have unrequited love for him, he seems to be too focus on everything else and not woman lol. I’m reading the novel now, and it seems he is the focus type, not caring about love or human interaction lol
