Okay in ancient times, woman had right to choose to be concubines but in his brother case, like we see there was no choice, and he was forcefully dragging woman out of street with his guards to make them his concubines and then proceed to have forced sex with them....hence RAPE !
If that was the societal norm, then in first episode why everybody was against FL brother for forcing a musician and ML even asked his guards to step in, even FL didn't defend her brother.
I have not seen ZXW and ZLS do this anybody even when they are far more powerful than him.....if we start using societal norm, then HRZ treatment by his old trash lord was pretty normal for the era, unfortunately slaved had no rights in Tang era.
Then why did his beating is bad and his rapes are normal?
I believe we should treat everybody with same standard, I am not saying his assassination didn't deserved justice cuz ML did punished Ming family by taking away their power and made them utterly useless.

It can also be due to the fact, that he is not supposed to exist in the timeline but then again FL father was also supposed to be dead by now. Its interesting concept, lets see how they end it but one thing is for sure HRZ is fake/clue cuz I have seen a clip in which, she touched HRZ finally and he disappeared...leading to her awakening from dream.

She cut a deal with ML/Lord/ZXW and he will let them go in name of banishment like they did to Mu family.

So you are trying tell me this mfo is the same director, that made that MoXi and CWD trash. The saddest part about the whole ordeal is Zhou Ye and Wang Xi acting was on point but they will still get a lot of hate for it.
I just absolutely hated that Moxi drama and no wonder, I feel the same towards FL in this drama. You can make good FL lead drama with compromising on male lead story and other aspects, like Love Like Galaxy was good example.
Male lead was a grey character and he killed a lot of people in name of investigation and even went against Emperors order, FL also had alot of problems like immaturity and other traits.
but nobody hated that one cuz it was done properly !

You could be right here and this is the mystery I am also interested in but if he is another part of her, then why did he always smells incense and she can't. I am looking forward to ep 28, if your theory is correct we will have mergence of two conscious.

I just hate her and I hope we have open ending but HRZ only smelling incense on her changes everything, he is either ZXW or timelord/defender of some sort. He knew from get go and has been saying for longest part, YOU WILL BE ALONE IN THE END !

Did you watched ep 1...he tried to take away musician against her will and FL/ML stooped him....you tryna tell me he did it for the first time. When FL give option to his concubines to leave.....ALL OF THEM LEFT (9 to be exat) cuz they were forced to be his concubines.
I don't know for where you are but, in my country, forcing woman against their will to have sex with you is called rape from 6th century onwards.

This is the definition of serial murderer, you have to kill atleast two people and he did that !

You only have to kill 2 people to be branded as "Serial Murderer"

come on posters gona be for something, its ZXW and I didn't know Chinese drama's were popular around the universe.....people are here commenting from Jupiter moon colonies.

I also like this drama for this fact but people here had made it feminist battle and will attack other people no matter what ! and one idiot spoiled the ending here !
I don't know where he got his hands on it but it was "The end"

Bro del it and mark it under spoiler tag cuz you literally SPOILED THE END of the drama !

So let me rephrase it for brain dead's,
She is supporting Serial Murderer (Guard killed two people), Serial Rapist (brother, 9 woman were forced to be his concubines have sex with him ) and a F@cking traitor (father), who tried to destroy the entire Zhou family decade old business and killed a lot of people in assassination attempts.
https://www.britannica.com/topic/serial-murder (Definition of serial murderer, for HRZ fans)

Lord/ZXW said he will deal with Meng family and he DESTROYED THEIR POWER and EVERYTHING by taking away everything under them and making ZLS butler of the south......but nope FL have to destroy everything they agreed upon, He said he will punish Meng's and he did that.
She divorce, selfish, contradictory and supporter of COMBO OF WORST CRIMES IN HUMAN HISTORY don't deserve the ML, she don't even deserve IOTA of him.
I am speaking trash against ML mother for the longest time for the whole poisoning saga but I take everything BACK, by LAW FL family deserve death penalty two times over but ML mother still consider feelings and only FAKED HER DEATH.
Thank God she saved ML from this trash FL and HIMSELF, he is an idiot who deserved what will happen next....he let a criminal out and criminal family go but she can't even keep her end of bargaining.

I know what directors are thinking, only HRZ smells incense over her, he knows for a fact against everything she will be alone in the end and Lord is talking to her during comma......So HRZ is constructed from Lord words as the person he wanted to be her but can't be.
She deserve to be single forever !
my family/BF crimes are nothing but your locking up murderer is CRIME AGAINST HUMANITY !

The END !

I am more concerned about the fact, if they did the deed in Glass House, entire neighbourhood will see the night show/performance.

What will air after this?
If its another gut ranching stupidity like "Scent of time", just don't tell me at all.

Its not possible cuz at the start of the drama, we were shown the operation scene in which she died on operation table. I am Doc and the ECG machine clearly mentioned the absence of pulse. The ML is also cardiac surgeon, and he can read those instruments.
unless She someone run away from grave cuz Hospital procedures usually try for at-least 15 min before giving up on the dead and then there is the whole procure of "death certificate" in which the body is kept in cold storage in morgue.

Yes ML lead is in love with DFL (dead female lead)

1)He put him in prison, didn't passed his damnn verdict....like execute him now. The trail, investigation and all that would not work is favour cuz he did commit those MURDERS. Its not cultural thing counter murder is never allowed in any society even to this day....Thats what LAW and COURT ARE FOR !
If you are right then where is LAW, investigation and all that for two people he killed....HAN ! (if your killer deserves LAWS, then those killers didn't)
Secondly told the FL lead about it?
Who the "F" she is, that even the Lord of the state have to answer to her before doing his FERAKING JOB as the Lord of the state. He didn't orchestrate anything, ITS HIS JOB to do this and he saved her from a lot of trouble, if Meng family found it first and they would have her arrested for sheltering murderers.
If HRZ old owner deserves death, so he killed him....Then FL brother is serial rapist, why don't he deserve death. Going by your logic his death is acceptable.
FL working doesn't change the fact...HER FAMILY DID COMMIT CRIMES.....GROW THE F UP !
Stop supporting people JUST CUZ SHE HAS VAGINA AND OTHER PARTY HAS COCK and apply logic, think from other people perspective and leave us alone.
as for your first time watch thing like this, this is known as GREY CHARACTERS and drama's usually having them are pretty good. Remember Game of Thrones, Jhon Snow was good guy but he was also Aunt [email protected] is knows as GREY CHARACTER
You literally sound like, you are gona have panic attack or pope some vein !

This drama is simply infuriating and we have one before it to, which had characters named MoXi and CWD. I am just watching it for the sake of finishing it and fast forwarding through the episodes.

He did kill those people and Lord has the responsibility to state he rules, as Lord of the state its his job to look at everybody and everything.....whenever he host even a simple event, freaking assassins also invite themselves to it and commit murders (and I suspect those MFO even eat food cuz tables are always empty after their exit).
of course he is overprotective and suspicious of everybody and Guard worked in his mansion, lied to him about his past and even lied to FL for the long time and told her 1 episode ago. If he was that innocent, he could have told FL from the get go.
Her brother was SERIAL RAPIST and her father is traitor and she got ML to let them go without a scratch......who is worse !

Yeah but I don't know a single drama in which things worked out for him, I should have known better and we will have another typical Wang Xing Yue drama ending.
