Donāt know the ending for the drama but thereās no real love triangle. Shouldnāt be one in the drama either. The Master/student relationship is really just that.
Gotta thank the Chinese fans who buy and share. It wouldnāt be possible without them. Iām so grateful to them for releasing these basically untouched or with little filter. Everyone can see Xiao Ranās true level of beauty and dedication just in case the final product doesnāt stack up.
I have a feeling Iām gonna be a hardcore Cangcang fan. She seems so spirited š„¹. I think the Reuters from…
Itās all speculation righ now however it seems LCC didnāt want to marry XH when they got married but has to. Possibly XH doesnāt want to marry her either so itās an unhappy marriage at this point.

I have a feeling Iām gonna be a hardcore Cangcang fan. She seems so spirited š„¹. I think the Reuters from the other day was her running away from the marriage (possibly after she got married).
finale rant ^^ I just don't get the total lack of communication between adults and the absolute disregard for…
Fair enough. Your points are all valid. Not every show will work for everyone.
Maybe itās because Iām influenced by the book, but one of the things I like about Jiman is that she may love NYX but she wonāt lose herself to him, and she wonāt let him affect her ultimate survival. Whether thatās wanting a divorce because NYX isnāt good to her at the beginning or going no contact because she canāt trust she wonāt be discovered - I think theyāre logical choices. Especially considering she had just fallen off a cliff and ran for days only to see his cart pulling away. That scene felt like a bit of a wake-up call for her. He has to go be the prime minister. Lord knows I donāt believe in āhurting you to protect youā but considered NYX already put Ji Manās life in danger by a moment of incaution by speaking about NSYās true end in a place where he could be overheard, I donāt blame the precaution Jiman took. If she contacted him there would be a chance something similar could happen and while NYX might be sad, she might be dead.
^^^ Anyway tastes are different. Hope you find a show you can fully enjoy. āŗļø
i dropped it at like eps 16 ish, as a novel reader i didnt like how they completely changed the focus of the drama
Novel reader here too. Iām okay with the drama but Iām really sad that the show didnāt: 1) Keep Jimanās scheming and cleverness 2) Her aloofness to NYX for as long as it ran in the book 3) All the different ways she earned the š° (People keep complaining about the business parts of the show but book Jiman was really on her grind the whole time. And I love to see FL pursue a careerš)

The emperor basically threatened Jimanš . He could have had her killed for lying but was lenient in telling her to scram. And she does try to make contact but is too late and realises it was probably a dumb idea anyway. The only way they could be together is if NYX is able to be an effective prime minister and Ji Man fixes her reputation. Once this is realised, their marriage is granted and basically blessed by the emperor. This is much better than being pariahs in love and fits the main themes of the drama, which is āno one can and should be everything to a personā and ālove alone/obsessive love canāt sustain a personā.
I have watched this drama many times, it is truly a great work. But there is one thing that bothers me, why did…
For how loved Xiao Feng is by the audience, many feel this was the best ending for her. The Xiao Feng at the beginning and the Xiao Feng at the end are two different people to the point itās depressing. While watching I could almost feel how tired she was. Especially when she looks up at the sky and sighs before going to the battlefield. Iāve always felt she didnāt want to but there was really no choice. This drama was very thorough in cutting off all avenues for Xiao Feng so there was no way out for her. In all honestly the show has to be praised for that. It is really hard to make this type of ending actually feel appropriate. The extra episodes were kinda like an extra benefit due to the popularity of the show. They donāt have any real meaning and are mostly filled with memes or inside jokes for book and drama fans.
