I agree, but I have a strong feeling the consort is manipulating both the empress and Lord Muyang with that sowing…
I agree. Also, it seems she needed to get rid of FL's mum (who is shown to be Empress Dowager's best friend) so she can take a central role in Empress Dowager's life. That way she will be the only trusted confidant and her manipulation will work perfectly.
Tbh, I'm a little confused. So it seems Ye Li knows that everyone from the mountain is dead, yet she has no idea…
She's experiencing a trauma response. She had a traumatic experience that her brain is protecting her from the reality of. Especially with the death of Qing Shuang that she imagines. That is her not wanting to deal with the death of QingShuang and probably recall how she died, because it must have been very traumatic.
It's obvious that Consort Dowager is manipulating the Empress Dowager. She sows discord with her words and pretends it is for the love of the Empress Dowager. I won't be surprised if she's the main mastermind behind whatever happened at Lishan Mountains.
What kind of bad writing is this? Did the script lose a knot? I mean the phone call went through and I understand he didn't hear it because it was on vibration and he was in a meeting, but my gosh, I am sure he looked at his phone later on (Ep. 28)
Yet, somehow, the scriptwriter wants us to believe they have just being missing each other and never meeting, SMH!
I hate scripts that are written just to achieve a particular purpose but then no thinking is put into it.
Rant over.
PS: I have co me this far, I can as well finish it off.
Now, I like this kind of FL. Swift and decisive, yet is unassuming. Even the ML is intrigued by her. Can't wait for tomorrow's episode. I also enjoyed how the 1-2 episodes or so were from the FL point of view and the following episodes from the ML's perspective. We actually see things aren't as simple as was initially presented.
PS: I like the actors are using their real voice. At least I am sure of FL and ML.
Ok, first episode got me in. I am ready for the rest.
PS: I thought I was about to finally see a C-drama where the main couple consummated their marriage from the get go and not the usual wait "for half way the are so in love and then consummation" 🤣. What a twist from the ML.
Yes, the romance of her Uncle and Auntie Hua is good, but maybe two episodes and then use the others to flesh out the unfinished stories about her side of her family, especially with her loss.
Unfortunately the editing, sequencing, and script didn't get better for me. I thought it was going to be another Glory (Chen DuLing's previous drama). Disappointing.
this is 36 eps right? Because the adult arc didn’t even start it can’t end in what 7 eps? because they will…
It is written 30 here. Still I find the high school period too dragged out for my taste, considering the other storyline that is supposed to take place after high school.
More than half of this show (currently in Ep. 21) is spent during high school period. If I knew, I wouldn't have bothered. Not a fan of high school dramas.
This show should be called Saint Xiao ChungSheng, because ML was written like a saint with no boundaries. Also, last episodes were totally unnecessary and drama could have rounded off earlier. It caused them to repeat storylines and add unnecessary plot lines.
Anyway, a decent drama and aside from the above complaints, I reasonably enjoyed the show.
Coming back to rant again. There are some relationships that we have to cut off and move on no matter what. This show failed in portraying this real life scenario. How can one suffer betrayal from the sesame set of people over and over again, and somehow the victim is such a great person (Saint even) to keep the same people close to him. To even have access to his secrets. 🤦♀️
Big script flaw here. Don’t even get me started with the 20 years of lusting and yearning over someone. Unrealistic.
Like I said, writing a ML Character that is a saint, is my problem with this show. How many times do people, even so called close friends, have to betray you for you to keep bringing them back and working with them. This is not realistic at all. It’s rinse and repeat. Almost like a filler to elongate the show. 🤦♀️
I hate when C-dramas write Lead Characters that are saints and sacrificial. Like WTF is with it and ML always excusing so called “best friends” that stab him in the back. And still maintain friendships with them. That’s not real life. That is just writing some saviour character.
