Someone clarify this for me

Jiang Ci is so helpless in her current situation. Everything she tries to escape is ruined before it even happens. Before she was trapped by Wei Zhao and Pei Yan, but now she's got the frickin emperor on her back. And she's trapped by her love for her master, the same way her master is for her (but I bet the master is also trapped by her past, what she's hiding, she's afraid it will come into light).

Oh righttt, HUGE MISS. I watched the two episode far apart I completely forgot about it. They have so many misses man, sad we couldn't get anything before the split DDDD:

My heart breaks for Jiang Ci and Wei Zhao. When she poisoned him, she looked so heartbroken. She wants to love who she thought he was, but she doesn't know anymore. Despite her love, her values and her master mean a lot to her. The same way despite Wei Zhao's love for her, he gave his life to avenging his father and protecting Yuelou. So a simple please don't marry him for her master is enough.

When Jiang Ci was hugging him, she was restraining herself, her lip quivers AWWWWW... When he caught her and her master in the carriage, he seemed so heart broken when she said she didn't love him. He was looking in her eyes to see if she was lying, hoping she was.

I don't think there is a happy ending from stuff I've seen and heard, but I hope we can get stuff cleared up between them. I can tell she is questioning things after her master started saying cruel stuff about his father and sister. She knows her master is good, but she also knows that the people of Yuelou are good and didn't deserve what happened to them. BUT she knows she's missing information from both sides.

Not when she knocked him out LOL

no if you do its cause your frontal lobe ain't fully developed... and there is always emotional manipulation involved. Nobody falling in love with someone who tried to kill them, if they do, its Stockholm syndrome or something along the lines. It ain't love, its a jail.

THAT WAS MY FAVOURITE PART! It showed that it's not just love but respect. Our FLs always do things that forward the romance, but not just for their character and the plot. This of course helped forward romance, but he gave the moment to her cause she deserved it.

I promise that was the last episode. Just keep watching, cause its uphill from here. He literally doesn't raise his hands on her every again. Also yeah you'd think there are plot holes at episode 10 when there are 40 lol. I was also confused to be fair, but a lot is cleared up. Its usually foreshadowing.

ALSO SCREW THE NEXT TWO EPISODES, It became so happy and now my heart is about to break for Jiang Ci. One thing that bothers me though is Wei Zhao's reaction. Like he is definitely not the desperate type, he is more reserved, but I want to see him wear that regret on his face with not his micro expressions... GIVE ME MACRO! Have yal seen goodbye my princess.... when she found out..... GIVE ME THAT! Give me begging, crying, on your knees.

Miss girl even confessed to him first! She literally said we already married boo, but lets do it again!

Also one thing I have to point out this episode is when he bowed to her. That's something I cannot recall ever seeing in any cdrama. Like it just shows that the show knows Jiang Ci deserves to be respected for what she did, it wasn't anything little. It also shows what a humble person Wei Zhao is, he loves Yuelou so much and is so grateful to Jiang Ci.

The actions of the female characters are usually appreciated by other characters in shows but we don't see much appreciation from their male lead. Usually when they do something good, it helps the romance, they're like "omg she's so cool, I think I like her even more now!" The bow was a show of respect, comrade to comrade. I'm sure it made him love her even more, but he is more grateful.

OMGGGGGGGG My love for Jiang Ci gets stronger every episode.

First comment is spoiler in respect to last two episodes (26-27) and other comment is about the teasers for upcoming episodes (28-29)

oh thank you for clearing it up! man, i learn something new about cdramaland every day

You have to catch up xd I can barely explain how they did it, but they did! They still remind us every now and then he tried to kill her so we don't forget that... why? Because you're right, that's not something you can ever forgive. However, you can TRY to make up for it. And he does it numerous times. So continue to watch!

you're literally at the peak of brutality LOL I promise its all uphill from here on out.

SAME! You said it perfectly! Like I know he doesn’t want her to leave, but his duty to his father and his town is important. He is willing to manipulate her for that. Yes yes! I hope he gets what’s coming for playing with her emotions. I can’t wait to see how they depict it. I hope we can see his desperation to keep her. Sadly I don’t know if we will :((

I’ve seen people in comments who I can tell always have issues with female leads in dramas. And despite how good of a character jiang ci is, they find ways to blame her lol. So I just wanted to say that! I am disappointed in WZ, I know he hates himself for it though.

Also... DID YAL SEE THE TEASERS!!! The romance is finally ROMANCINGGGGGGG. I just love Jiang Ci so much, she doesn't shy away from being friendly with Wei Zhao, like they can have moments which most romance leads don't usually have, a normal dynamic. Most leads in dramas are awkward before they get together, then all of a sudden they can't keep their hands off each other once they start dating. However, the way she was teasing him at the dinner table, talking about opening a stall together (and him even supporting the notion, albeit very shyly).

The desperation to save her once she gets sick after attempting to kill her a million times, I'm glad. I'm sure I'm not the only one who appreciates they didn't just forget about that after they started getting closer. Like I'm sure he has paid off those killings with the amount of times he's saved her thus far, but he still holds in his heart there was a time he tried to hurt her and regrets it. What he did before cannot be excused, so it's good they make sure we don't forget about it.

I hope nobody is pissed at Jiang Ci leaving briefly btw... She is a simple person, he broke her trust, she wanted one thing, and he got in the way of that. She is a good person, that's why she wants to help Yuelou, and that's why she came back. She wouldn't have left if she knew that would happen. But she is deservingly angry after being messed up by both Wei Zhao and Pei Yan.

I was afraid Pei Yan was going to kill that guy, it would've been the turning point in his character, making him no longer salvageable. However, I can tell he is still a good person, he isn't happy with his mom power grabbing, the killing of innocents, he is just a creep :D I don't know how it goes in the books, but if the description is correct, he joins hands with Wei Zhao eventually. I can't wait to see his arc complete.

thank you for explaining! So the director made other leads suffer during filming? or all actors
