The plot between GBZ and the first 16th night is succesfull..they both are good actor...until epi 32, it does…
Yeah I agree. To me, this was by far the most convincing romantic arc and I wish more time had been spent on the buildup, not just showing the flashbacks (from her perspective) right at the end. Both actors do such a great job portraying these totally traumatized people just trying to make it.
So I am starting to think lord chu stabbed him self to either get heat off himself or he is part of the four season…
Yeah it definitely seems intentional. If he's not part of the plot, maybe Wu Youjue is and Chu is trying to expose his hand by putting him in charge? But it definitely seems suspicious that he never caught onto any of this in the first place. Like either there's something going on or he definitely deserves to get fired.
I'm expecting Wu Zetian in Luoyang to be a bit "evil", not soft spoken. And she doesn't investigates? Just accepts…
I feel like she might have something up her sleeve. Like maybe she has a pretty good idea of what's going on and is intentionally having everyone in the court work against each other to see who is disloyal, who is incompetent, who is out for themselves. This was kind of hinted at in ep 36 with her knowing about the WYJ/Baili brother thing.
Yeah she is less ruthless than what I expected, but I do like that they treat her as a relatively normal emperor character, and not a one-dimensional villain.
So WYJ and Baili Dalang aren't in cahoots? How did Lord Spring give up so easily? I don't believe he sacrificed…
I'm not convinced they're not in cahoots. WYJ still seems super shady. But I guess the self-poisoning thing in the preview could be a red herring, and he did it as part of some master plan by the empress or something like that.
First of all, Master Chu......really? This dude has worked as the head of Intelligence Services for how long and…
This cracked me up lol. Yeah there's no way the Chu thing wasn't planned (if it turns out to be a legit stabbing, that's some pretty choppy writing). I think the Wu brother is somehow involved in the plot, or at least suspected by the empress, and Chu is helping to set him up for exposure.
Yeah she is less ruthless than what I expected, but I do like that they treat her as a relatively normal emperor character, and not a one-dimensional villain.
