Just wearing a flower pin can get you a new minted concubine? Can't he just tell the truth he has no idea what…
It's the saving face and social pressure. Refusing it publicly will paint ML and Lin family in a very bad way especially since he owes Du dude his life.
After fl knowing ml identify and lin family who breaks engagement and indirectly downfall of her family deaths…
FL knows ML's identity and Lin family breaking the engagement since the beginning.
The Lins are not the cause of the fall of Shen family. They are as much a victim as well. It's someone else who dug up old matters and whispered to the Emperor's ears. The worst label we could put on the Lins is not providing a helping hand.
oh god!!! every episodes gives me a vibe that u have to put ur every step carefully. U can easily imagine the…
Zhao family is a newly made nobel family (starting from the grandpa generation), and their family's doctrine is women don't need to be literate. iirc, Zhao Xingtang's mom is illiterate as well.
It's like a disclaimer. Audiences do their research. They know what is what and if a production makes any mistakes…

My take on this is that she was shy, expectant, and curious toward her betrothed, typical of a young girl in her position who is about to marry. But, no deep feelings yet.

I am really enjoying this drama so far and I like the quiet strength the FL carries herself with. She reminds…

If those tongfangs gave birth, they are usually promoted to concubine position.
The side characters in this drama are all top tiers. Everyone is so distinct and so full of personality.

I gotta pick up Mandarin some day. I know I'm missing out a layer of rich context in those poetry, wordplays, and symbolism.
Drama is amazing if you are into this genre.

Revenge... I don't think she even has a target for revenge right now, unless it is revealed later otherwise.
Slice of life is one of my favorite genres in both visual and text media, so length is usually not an issue for me as long as it's well written.
