I find the main wife an interesting character. Women as pawns are always interesting to watch. If there was no FL, she would be a good pairing for the ML as she is definitely clever and strategic. But the FL has the added bonus of having no historical ties to the ML.
That other concubine needs to find a hobby or at least a private lover.
He is also struggling with something painful that happened in his past. And he obviously wants to resolve it.…
It's better to say they earn each other's space beside each other. He's already on elevated ground as man and a official while she is a hostage Princess. He already benefits from the world they live in. That imbalance reflects the gender dynamics of their world, but it’s also a reminder of how often women's value is framed as something conditional. I just want my girl to have some good days so its good that the novel gives her some happiness.

They each have their own burdens to carry. But he will always have a trump card and that he is a man in ancient times. That single fact grants him privileges and protections she’ll never have, no matter how clever or resilient she is. While she has to constantly calculate her moves just to survive, he can afford to stumble and still be caught by the safety net of a patriarchal world.
So while their emotional burdens may feel equal, the consequences of their choices are not.
ML is finding out that he is underestimating his new Princess. These little schemes of his might work on his inner harem, but she’s spent her entire life navigating treacherous people and surviving in environments where trust was a luxury. While his concubines were likely coddled and protected by their families, the female lead had to sharpen her instincts just to stay alive. He’s playing games; she’s playing for survival.
Just Hopping Reba is Next and we get a surprise before June End 🤞
Right! They don't deserve her. Jaywalk bosses are proof that just because you were manager of a few stars, don't mean you have the business acumen to run an agency full of emerging talents.
Jaywalk must be beyond embarrassed because why do you mean you've loss your big money makers one after the other. Instead of looking at their business model, they continue to be shitty agency to Baba.
The LBTG trailer is giving big budget indeed! I am happy for her. Tencent, Huang Xiaoming and the team must have put a lot of capital behind this drama.
I just saw Merxat in a short drama which is crazy considering he's done quite a few long format ones. Short dramas must be the way the drama world is heading these days.
At this point I don't know what's wrong with him. He seems hell bent on ruining almost all reba's looks.Doesn't…
He's determined to be mediocre and I can't help but think he's shit under pressure. I don't know if he likes getting backlash on Weibo but they ain't kind on there. It's actually so sad to see her reputation as a red carpet go up in flames like this.
Waste of damn time for those poor fans to ask Min Rui to dress her in something nice and he has her looking like a damn mortuary worker at the conference! Bloody man is opposed with netting!
It's hard to fully dislike it because sis has the face card for days lol

Why is everyone up in arms about it being a harem? Sis isn't wallflower. She'll be fine.
