💕If they love each other , there is nothing creepy and disturbing about adults sleeping together ☺️ My…
Good for your aunt if she’s happy but it’s not common for couples for have nearly 3 decades of age difference in general
Also, the emperor here is very mature with adult children and the concubine yan is so naive and childlike. It’s like pairing a grandpa with a middle schooler. Creepy much
I’m so hooked but I can’t help but wonder how beautiful and comforting it would’ve been if their room in the village was dim light with the fireflies and the moon light reflecting on their faces.
Even though they mentioned how the villagers don’t want to waste oil at night, it cracks me up at the fact that the room was so well lit with studio lights. I wish they looked into this detail as well. It’s the little details that make you keep coming back to the scenes
Chinese are very specific about lineage and kinship. There are different titles for maternal and paternal uncle…
No I get where you are coming from, I’m Asian and I have different names for each uncle (maternal, paternal, in-law). etc but it doesn’t mean I’d fall for my non blood related uncle. That’s incest to me. We are still related. Maybe it’s bc I grew up in a western country, idk but it’s still weird to me, despite the different way of addressing them
Why is this story tryna make everything look incestuous? like i get the novel but they changed so much in the drama so i thought LYN will know the truth about her birth at least by ep 15. Now, more than half of the drama is over and this girl has no clue. You’re telling me she’ll get to know by ep 30 (they drama has only 40 eps) and she’ll somehow switch up from looking at the ML as her third brother to a potential romantic interest almost immediately? If it was revealed in the earlier half, it would’ve been perfect and im saying this after knowing the things that happen in the novel.
And the uncle and niece like bfr. They’re not even closely related or blood related but they kept making her call him uncle and they like each other now. Ew
Now, the first master liking his late sis in law. I can’t.
I was so invested in the show and now it’s just making me impatient
I think for me, what made it “okay” was that it was all for show, because he won’t sleep with her. But sadly…
True! Mutual respect is where I’d draw the line 😭 it’s good that she didn’t marry an abuser or someone worse but I don’t want any romance arc from them
I think for me, what made it “okay” was that it was all for show, because he won’t sleep with her. But sadly…
I get you but it’s the show forcing a romance between them. The emperor is clearly falling for her and she’s younger than his sons. It’s so weird. I wish they simply treated each other with respect and went on with their lives. He has too many other women in the harem anyway
I’m so invested in this right now, but I find the concubine yan and the emperor pair so revolting that i immediately skip any scenes of them talking or the emperor eavesdropping. Although I know in ancient times, teen girls being married off to aged men weren’t uncommon, it disgusts me to see it on screen. The emperor is giving grandpa and she is giving a naive child. I can’t. I’d puke if there’s a confession or even another subtle romantic scene between them 🤢 Sorry, not Sorry. I can never get comfortable with such stuff
Well, you post a YouTube of past scenes with music. Second, it is still on going drama.. Third, where did you…
novel has an okayish ending for the leads and a bad ending for the second couple. the drama contents seems to be a bit different than the novel. i wonder how the ending will turn out
Bei Shuang doesn't like Na Zhan. Ruo Wen doesn't like Xin Wei.Maybe Xin Wei and Na Zhan can be end game. With…
Xin Wei is blind in love but she deserves a man who loves her back. Na Zhan doesn't seem to truly love anyone. He's just using everyone. One for strategies, some for giving birth, some for leisure, and many for sleeping with him.
It's kind of like aphrodisiac. Most cdramas uses these prompts in costume drama. Intense heat in the body, I think…
I really want them to release that master tape as post drama clips or like the director's cut. as much as i dont like the novel, the leads chemistry in the first few eps was steaming hot.
I'll start by saying im very glad the drama changed a few stuff and i truly hope both the couples get the best…
I don't get his obsession either, maybe it's because he hates losing or thinks being with her will fix his life. He has a traumatic past but that isn't an excuse for everything he has done. He's messed up so it's not far off that his reason for the obsession is also messed up. I got sick to my stomach when the novel ended with him hoping the FL would notice him in the next life when the woman who loves him and accompanied him through a lot, Ge Xinwei is literally pregnant with his child.
Yes, the emperor I referred to is Na Zhan from Yunpei.
Ruo Wen's traumatic past, according to the novel (and the trauma he gave others):
His mother was abducted and forced to sleep with many men, one of whom was Ruo Wen and his sister's father, the leader of the bandits. Ruo Wen's mother hated him and his sister’s purple eyes (though I’m not sure why the author chose that color) because they reminded her of all the humiliation she endured (their bio dad has purple eyes). Over time, she lost all compassion and harbored resentment, didn't raise Ruo Wen or his sister.
In the camp, only the fittest survive, so the siblings had to fight for food alongside the other bandits. Ruo Wen’s sister often went days starving, which led him to start sharing his meals with her, even though their relationship could hardly be described as an ideal sibling bond. He had purple eyes like his sister, which is how she came to realize he was her brother. For years, their only interaction consisted of her calling him "brother" whenever he returned on his horse to the barrack. Although he never looked at her directly, he would toss her coats, food, or whatever items he managed to steal in her direction so she could have them.
One day, he made a plan to leave that place, and his sister came to say goodbye. She gave him a back hug and told him that the fur coat he had given her kept her warm, and that she never gave it to anyone else, despite being forced to do so each time. He was uncomfortable with displays of affection, so he tore the coat away from her, only to find that she was fully covered in bruises. She explained that she had dealt with people who were trying to harm him, and that those bruises were worth it. It was then that it clicked for Ruo Wen that his sister was not some naive woman; she had been fighting for their survival. Meanwhile, every assassination plot against him had failed because his sister had killed anyone who intended to harm Ruo Wen.
He puts the coat back on his sister, gives her a hug, tears up a bit, and says, "I'll take you with me. I'll build a new camp. You're my sister. You don't have to serve any men you don't want to. If anyone tries to touch you, I'll kill them." As they are planning to leave, they are summoned by their bio dad (the leader) because he presumably found out about their plans through their mother. Ruo Wen never saw his mother as a maternal figure, but he didn't expect her to be so ruthless against them. The leader asks Ruo Wen's mother to kill her daughter (Ruo Wen's sister) or kill herself. With no life in her eyes, the mother smiles evilly and moves to attack her daughter. In that moment, Ruo Wen stabs his mother and tells her, "You're out of misery now."
He then kills his bio dad, the leader, grabs his sister, and escapes on a horse with her holding onto him from behind. They are followed by bandits who wish to join Ruo Wen in searching for a new camp and a new life. As they flee, someone shoots at Ruo Wen, and his sister gets hit. She holds him tight, telling him she's fine, not to slow down, and to keep moving. At that moment, Ruo Wen felt as if his five senses were burning away between heaven and earth; all he could hear were the horses moving and the cold blood of his sister soaking into his back. He tied her tightly to him, almost as if urging her to hold on for a bit, but she couldn't. After this, Ruo Wen lost all the little emotions he had left.
After establishing his camp, Ruo Wen believed that women were not worth cherishing and merely sought enjoyment from them. However, unexpectedly, the first woman he came to respect (according to the novel) was his first wife, Li (I dont know how the heck he respected her bc keep reading). He abducted her on her wedding day solely for her looks, but she never gave in to him. He forced himself on her for ten days but became bored because she did not react in bed.
Ruo Wen then called countless women to serve him while Li stood by the window, gazing outside as if longing for the life she once had. Ruo Wen and the bandits had women tied up naked in a row; half of them were for Ruo Wen to choose from, and the other half were for the rest of the men to enjoy. (I found this part extremely disturbing; I’m not sure how I continued reading the novel.) Some of those women were killed, and when Li found out, she attempted to assassinate Ruo Wen. She failed and kept trying for the next three years, while he continued to spare her life. Eventually, she fell gravely ill and became deeply depressed, losing her will to live. In the end, he killed her to put her out of her misery. (I'm convinced the author has some messed up brain at this point).
He is numb to killing people or seeing people die by now. He killed his mom, his bio dad, and now his first wife.
Thats his past, i regret reading the novel. I still have some hopes for the drama but idk.
In here, she was called little beggar and now the ML keeps calling her Ah’ Mei
What’s with jinyan and her characters getting stinky cute nicknames at first from her romantic interests lmao 🤣🤣
