I think he himself is confused of his feelings. He said he probably love her in romantic way, but he really hasn't experienced love in life to understand what it is. I think he just said that in desperation so that she wouldn't leave him. But he does need some therapy

I'm really hoping they survive too and get together.

Yes I agree. It does make us connect with the characters more and feel their pain more.

The emperor is not worth saving. He is not fit to be emperor.

lol I was laughing so much. it's exaggeration done right

I am the same and am hoping for a good ending and outcome for these characters

I hope we find out too! Hopefully it will be reviewed it the nxt few eps

Does anyone know when this is coming out?

I agree. Director and scriptwriter are important too. You can have a good cast but bad script can just ruin it. Vice versa. The whole ensemble need to be on same level.

I agree. These 2 were the best dramas of 2023

Well said

I have hope for him to turn good too. After recent eps it does seem he has more admiration for his shifu than the romantic way. It just maybe he was never really loved as a child so he doesn't know how to express it right. It will all depend on how the writer writes his parts.

I am predicting that LTG might end up being YY protector. Not sure yet if she will end up with YL cause of his heart condition. She may just become strong and devote to helping others without being a couple with anyone. I do kind of ship them though since I think they will make an interesting pair. Also since she not all into him from the start I feel she maybe able to build a stronger relationship with him than his other potentials.

Haha I love that

I agree. She shows her range here. I was thinking the same throughout Tiger Crane, but then I realized was it because we she was playing the role of a wooden puppet? Which is what she was right? That why throughout her expression rarely changed. Anyways I do really like her in this one and her real voice goes well with her character too.

To me, I find that Liu Yuning is the perfect NYZ. He has the mature but humble look. To me he is playing the character very well which makes him very attractive. They chose the right actor to pair with LSS especially for the age range I feel it was a good match. I don't understand the negativity towards him just because he is not handsome. His height is great for visuals. His character as a person as from what I've seen is very respectful. To me he is an attractive guy. I love the fact that he come from humble background, but even now that he is famous he doesn't seem to put on airs. I think it because he is very mature, and that make him to me very likeable. I hope he continues to get more ML opportunity. To me, a good actor is not just about looks. An actor who is handsome but bad personality in real life is a turn off. An actor that is handsome but can't act, will ruin a whole series. I've watched a few with good looking ML, but they couldn't act so I ended up dropping the series. And these were high budget series. Also, the actor need to fit well for the character they are playing too. Also to add, how LYN came out and was honest and quick to respond about his previous marriage before he made it as a singer, made me respect him even more. How many celebrities nowadays will be straight to the point and honest like that. He showed that he is a real man and responsible. He doesn't deserve the hate comments just because of his looks. I don't understand cyber bullies. How can they say mean stuff to someone they don't know and that person has never done anything to them personally. This industry can change people. I hope he stays as a good man as he currently is (from what I can see)

i also actually really liked Shisan and Meiniang too.

I do find that YY and YL seem more like siblings right now. They make a good duo and are funny shipping NX and Ruyi. It's like they are shipping their big bri and sis together. I find it cute. There is also a risk YL might die b4 he is 20. Someone mentioned that YY might end up with LTG

Does anyone know if Tian Jia Rui character have a love line in this? Hope he is not a villian in this. There was a bts clip where he stabbed HMH. The leaked scenes of the costumes, the costumes are so great looking!

I feel it might not necessarily mean she will die. When they film the scenes are not filmed in order. It could be they shot her scenes first due to cast schedules.
