The yapping Labrador also known as Su Heng is annoying, but you cannot blame a boy for trying (and being unable to read the room). What I find far more infuriating is the fact that Shen Zhen sees his possessive behaviour and sees Lu Yan’s jealousy but still continues with the “gaga” nonsense to keep him in his delusional state. She had plenty of opportunities to tell him that she and Lu Yan have feelings for each other. And don’t get me started on that meddling sister. She is on the fast lane to becoming a bitter old woman. I can only feel sorry for poor Zhou Su’an right now. The plot line pointing to Lu Yan’s mother as the mastermind feels very artificial and looks to be yet another clumsy attempt (as if the Labrador and the bitter old woman weren’t enough…) to create adversity between the main couple. Somehow, the more the drama deviates from the novel, the more tropey the storyline becomes. Scriptwriters, just stick to the source material if you cannot come up with any original ideas. For me, there were two highlights in these two episodes: Li Di - the character is scum, but the acting was top-notch Lu Yan - who would have thought that our stern magistrate was such a crybaby 😂 kudos to Jeremy for effortlessly squeezing out those tears.
I didn't understand him too but now that we know his discoveries l can understand him to some extent cause if…
I don’t think the noble person is the Eldest Princess. In the novel she and her brother, the Emperor, have a very close relationship and her family has traditionally always remained neutral in the palace fights between the various factions. She may not be too happy with Shen Zhen because she wants her son to stay out of all these plots, but she isn’t a bad person.
I doubt that this will have 50 episodes, even if it was originally planned that way. They’ll probably chop it down to 40 episodes and maybe, if we’re lucky, make the individual episodes a bit longer than usual.
Not unless they changed it completely from the novel. Shen Wenqi was one of the few supporters of the Crown Prince,…
I’m not sure, as I haven’t finished reading yet. It could be Concubine Xu and her son, the Sixth Prince. In any case, she h created the plan to ruin all of Shen Wenqi’s daughter so that they couldn’t be married to the son’s of other important ministers. The first daughter they set up with that fraudster Li Di, the second one was married off to an Uighur Prince in a political marriage (she doesn’t exist in the drama version) and Shen Zhen was supposed to marry that scum Xu Wei. There may be another mastermind behind her, thought…
Is there any love triangle ??And How is the chemistry between the leads ?
Well, there is a bit of a triangle, the leads are both clear in their feelings towards each other, but some guy hasn’t seen the writing in the sky and others are trying to meddle. I think their chemistry is quite good despite the age gap. I have been positively surprised by the FL, probably because I feared the worst. There are many funny and cute moments between them and judging by the BTS footage they had a lot of fun filming it.
Jeremy is the king at jealousy moments. His little fantasy of her seeing the artwork, twirling around and laughing…
Yeah, that “dinner for three” was so funny! I already didn’t much like the Su Heng character in the novel, but this version of him is even more annoying. At least the FL made it quite clear that she considers him a brother and not what he thinks.
I am so mad that I watched that, lol. I was praying that ZSA had randomly shown up at their house and saved her…
Yes, iI found that quite out of character. I had expected her to be more of a fighter and there were so many weapons of convenience lying around just waiting to be used. Don’t tire yourself out yelling at the screen. I’ve been doing it for more than forty years and it doesn’t seem to work. The Hollywood films that I grew up with were just the same…
I initially quite liked this drama, the brotherhood, the political scheming, Liu Yu Ning’s pokerface…but I had to give up after episode 4 . I just can’t stand dramas where 80% of the scenes seem to happen in the dark. To make matters worse, everyone is dressed in black or dark colours. It just makes me feel like a visitor in a goth nightclub and my eyes can’t take it.
Beautiful! She is supposed to play the role of a miracle doctor, who is a male in the original source. I think…
Changing originally male characters into female characters in the filmed version seems to be all the rage at the moment. The same happened in Detective Dee’s Mystery and the currently airing Yong’an Dream.
And don’t get me started on that meddling sister. She is on the fast lane to becoming a bitter old woman. I can only feel sorry for poor Zhou Su’an right now.

The bets are open, how many episodes will it take him to work it out?

I feel that we’re going to somewhat dislike the elder sister in the coming episodes if she keeps trying to promote SH.
C’mon, ladies, use your thumbs 😎
