And the plot is collapsing tbh, it's the usual filler unnecessary subplots to fill between the main story. They went through the love story very quickly and the journey to An could only have a bunch of mishaps.
Story doesn't have a complex layered plot that would need a lot of elaborating or showing different people with different agendas working on it (unless they're going to make a tangled mess of everything in the 14 remained eps.)
Now where does it leave them? Writing an obsession arc that takes 10 eps. And have MC going on different sort of dates several times in every episode until they reach the time for climax.

👌🏻👌🏻

Well, my own reaction to such characters normally is like "Someone give them a kick already!"😅 but seems out little Marquis here likes it a bit too much to be put off by it.


Sadly I haven't seen your comment but I quite agree with you, it's everything but romantic. Unlike Ruyi, NYZ is better with words and softer in his trainings as it's obvious from his relationship with his bros so I count on him to knock some sense into LTG. I actually was surprised to see he's not a cliched vengeful powerhungry official and really wants peace, also his cool attitude towards princess Jin Ming seems to have intrigued her but so far they'd turned him into a crazy crybaby with no brain cell whatsoever 🤦🏻‍♀️

I disagree. As I said he's a masochist, I'm not expert but to my unassuming eyes, he seems to connect his shifu with pain, a pain that implies care 🤔

I don't think belt therapy would work on him, he needs another approach and I just hope someone would do it so we can move on with it.

I've made enough complaints about LTG and how he need some medicine already but I can't help but saying I wish this I-want-my-shifu miniarc wrapped up and done with not only bc of his obsession but bc I'm just tired of this dom/sub relationship. He's a masochist and she was a sadist then and behaves like one now too.


I really don't like watching anymore of these slapping, pushing, mind plays, humilliation, etc acts. They did two of my favourite character dirty by this too long subplot🙄

This drama wouldn't bother me half as much if the villains were at least clever. Seeing a bunch of idiotic upstarts winning left and right by the lousiest tricks and lies and all their resources is eavesdropping behind a door is really trying.


I won't expect complex smart villains from a makjang and a daily one at that but even in my little experience I've seen several with really tricky, resourceful and smart baddies so it's not impossible 😒

Thanks for taking time and answering and sorry for late response, I wanted to check first. 😊🌹 I don't update unless apps don't work without it or there's major changes so it's not uncommon for me to be out of date.


Now I've updated the app, there are several changes like articles, commenting on feeds and acrive links in comments, etc but drama pages have the same features and there's no photo and episode guide section. (Lack of photo section, episode guide and discussion is difference from the website) so I think maybe one of your VIP features are extra things🤔

HGI was too old. All characteristics and personality aside, a 30 yrs old playing the younger love interest of a 24 yrs old as young looking as they can be isn't believable.

I don't remember the ending, probably one of those with lots of random deaths but yes, romance was bad.... like really bad

Thanks for writing reviews for old dramas as well. They remind me I watched some before but forgot them🤦🏻‍♀️😅

This is just awful and too long.

Reminds me of The Kingdom. If timing would let it I'd suspect her of getting pregnant by DY but it'll be obvious.

I want more Chu Yue😪😪 She's so funny and a perfect match for LTG🤦🏻‍♀️🤤

It's my first time seeing LYN in a drama and not just his "cool" profile picture and his face and features somehow reminds me of "Zhou Ting Wei". Anyone else see a resemblance?

Are you guessing the empress lying about her pregnancy or it was shown? Because I feel the same, her pregnancy seems very sudden, even the emperror was shocked, also DY said she wasn't favoured

I think it's a possible theory. Not necessarily Chai Ming but someone of Heaven Path as a real traitor. Good plot or bad, many characters in this drama had their trust broken by the people they loved and trusted. NYJ and his friends' love and admiration for their fallen friends is heavily emphasised during the drama and is the main reason for them taking this mission.


Now this said, if the rumours about them turn out to be not so empty after all, that would be quite a blow to them.

Exactly and worse is that sometimes they don't show actual subtitles because of them or it is so short you have pause to read the longer ones.

Thanks

What is the schedule? Weekly or a single drop?

I think he's aiming for the grand secretary position to be named regent, not so becoming the emperor himself.


Also, I believe his emotions and obsessions are a bit masochistic, he wasn't shown any love and Ruyi wasn't the sweet parent-like shifu we see in many dramas, on the contrary she was even worse and cold to him than his family. She didn't treat him well then and doesn't now (though he deserve it now😅). Getting this attached to her is understandable but weird.


I was seriously hoping for an individual story about him and the princess, they look very compatiable but she's barely there☹
