Yue

The others have explained it but I'll just add that she wants to maintain her power and her clan's power for another generation.

That's her niece and neither her or the niece is stupid.

Can't believe Wang Xing Yue is only 21. His acting is better than those older than him by miles.

It's not a plot weakness. The Emperor has blood ties to the Xue Clan, he said it himself that's why he tolerates his uncle's illegal acts behind his back. His mother, the Empress Dowager has been scheming all this time to maintain her family's grip on power including wanting to marry her niece off to one of the princes. Historically speaking, many emperors have gotten rid of their generals by framing them with false charges to have the army completely in their grip once the foreign enemies were defeated. It may be self-defeating but paranoia among the rulers is a well-known trait.

LOL!

When you say it like that... XD

Right. Typo, though love would also fit😄

Loved Ning's confrontation with the empress dowager. I was worried I wouldn't see another FL like Hua Qian from Scent of Time but so far JXN doesn't disappoint.

Ep.6: most awkward barbecue ever! XD

Same feeling XD

I can't find it on IQiyi. Does it appear on the app for anyone else?

Actually a lot of generals were illiterate back then.

That's in season.2?

I need spoilers please. What happens to the FL in the end?

Excuse me? That's a different drama which I didn't watch. You have an issue you can go take it up with the director. The ending has nothing to do with me or anything fans says here

The husband never really tried to protect her. The guard is too naive at times. But my original comment isn't about comparing the others. The lord forgot one important thing in all this which HQ has previously pointed out to him. His mother the Grand Princess has to give her approval for his marriage and she's not going to want a divorced woman to marry her son. I bet we'll see a conversation between her and HQ soon.

That's the thing isn't it? The more power one has, the more careful they should be in exercising it. The lord is so blatant that even the 2 women in his house have noticed. The one in pink is a schemer and I wouldn't put it past her to eliminate HQ.

I think the lord's behaviour is becoming more possessive and erratic. It's not romantic even if he is helping her. He's got spies watching HQ's every move. He'd be a stalker in 2023. Plus no care at all to HQ's reputation as a divorced woman in a feudal society.

I find her actress doesn't have a wide range of acting skills😅

Bit difficult when she planned it all😂
