I know some are frustrated with Zi Jin and Zhan Ji not hooking up so quickly, I am actually ok with it, its not that type of drama. The characters make sense. Zi Jin loves ML but she also loves and respects herself more than she loves him. Which I am all for. She has certain standards and after all she has been through, losing her mother, being essentially imprisoned and then bullied into marry ML after she had found a career that she loved. She seemed to have suffered a bit during the training she has with her mother, so sad seeing her having that flashback when she was stopping herself from crying. I don't see why she would jump on ML, best for her to have a new goal in life - which is saving lives of people who do not have to die than just rely on ML's love, which means having some sort of position. As love from Emperor doesn't get you far, all those prior concubines loved by past emperors died.
I don’t understand the relationship between the King Zhanji and Zijin now. Their romance is a slow burn for…
This follows most palace drama scripts. The FL usually plays hard to get to completely capture said Emperor's heart. Empress Dowager has essentially declared war in episode 29 and tricked ZZJ into saying FL is ordinary and wants to put her in her "place" She has a mission to stop all those countless deaths that are avoidable and its personal since her mother's death could have been avoided too. FL states in that episode something along the lines of "its ok she starts from nothing it's going to be long journey but she will not give up" So she is playing the long game of getting him and in turn having power to make those changes.
I feel like concubine guo didn't kill the emperor. I'm not gonna jump to conclusions yet as to who it was but…
I too believe she didn't kill the Emperor. Empress is trying to pass it off as she meant to kill me but Emperor drank it instead. I still don't believe Concubine Guo would poison her so openly. I think they would have made their marriage official if YYF hadn't told his man to deliver that message at that hour. YYF looked so sad before he was handed the letter, I bet in a cut scene he had just seen ZZJ go to her room or something and was happy to have them be interrupted. Now emperor is dead I wonder if there is a mourning period and will have to wait a while.
ZZJ is probably upset in the preview because the mourning period is over and she was already fast asleep with one of the concubines not caring that he might come over. (just speculating, thought of this point as I was responding lol.... we will see on Monday)
most of the time i'm unconvinced of the connections of the characters and i don't get why characters react like…
Not sure what episode you are on, the yyf and yzj dynamic is the way it is because of how yyf was against the Food Office, mixed with how FL helped YYF in the past not sure if FL remembers that part yet. YYF likes FL, but FL keeps him at a distance and doesn't allow him to have a close relationship with her.
SYH seemed to have turned on FL when she kind of, ((kind of because it wasn't an outright rejection of her but I guess she felt rejected)), chose to be closer to Zi Peng and now its a competition to be best in the Food Office. There is power with being the person controlling the Food Office. That's my take away with bad subs lol...
