Zhang Ping feeding Lan Jue and finding satisfaction in his approval is too cute. Also, Zhang Ping gets to see Lan Jue with his hair down more than others. 🥰

Questions for novel readers. Liu Xueyi plays the “Royal uncle” in this drama. Is that the same main character for the novel Imperial Uncle, written by the same author? That novel is a shounen ai novel. Both novels shared universe.

I love Mowen. He’s such a charming and faithful friend. The ride or die for Lan Jue. Their chemistry is very good too.

Aww, Zhang Ping made Lan Jue zongzi but Chen Chou ate it all. The disappointment on Lan Jue's face was so obvious. They’re all so cute 🤭

Oh I understand that and I do agree that food shouldn’t be in the bathroom. That is wasteful. But it is offputting to some to eat jujube that has been sitting next to the toilet for some time.

He's a charming character and he's a ride-or-die type for his best friend Lan Jue. Love him.

Yes!!!! Lol. Zhang Ping is so crazy to use it for porridge. He seriously didn't see a problem with it bc he thinks food doesn't belong in the bathroom but in our belly. He ate it too and see no issue with it. Poor Lan Jue. 😂

It's from episode 5. Zhang Ping thought it was wasteful to keep jujube-dried fruits in the bathroom, so he took them out and cooked them in porridge. At first, Lan Jue thought the porridge was tasty until he asked where the jujube came from. That’s when he was disgusted and Zhang Ping said he ate it just fine. You just have to watch that scene. To Zhang Ping, it's food and shouldn't be wasted. He forgets Lan Jue is a wealthy official. 😅

Omg, the porridge jujube. Zhang Ping didn't understand why Lan Jue spits it out. This drama has some funny moments. 😂

This drama is also now on Viki. I'm really enjoying this suspenseful crime-solving drama. The little bromance/brotherhood is nice. The chemistry between the leads is good too. 😃

Bc he's a noodle stall guy? Lol. But I do agree that his hair could have been better.

I was a bit frustrated with his character too. I was like, NOooo! You will ruin MC’s plan. Your future bro. Lol. 😆

Yup, Joseph Zeng. He’s a guest role in this drama.

Interesting how the two leads met and were at odds with each other. Also, Chen Chou is such a good guy. I love his character. I'm enjoying this drama so far. 🥰

Right! 😔

I still see posts on IG today saying this is a danmei drama. 💀 Misinformation continues.

It was frustrating because people were spreading misinformation that the novel is a BL. Made the drama delayed for no reason. Glad it's finally aired now.

The novel is not a BL. Even the author had to come out to clarify it a while ago when this drama was made. For whatever reason, the drama got lumped into the danmei live-action category and made it delayed.

The official photos of the main cast in modern and all-black clothing make me want them back together in a modern drama. They look so cool. 😎

It's a 5-minute easter egg episode only on the Youku Chinese app. It is not included with the paid Express Package. I paid $1 to watch this mini-episode. It's when Tang Lian came back and Xiao Se visited WuXin.
