These 2 episodes were around the ending of s1, meaning they're adapting s2 as well ^^

Ah yes you’re right. I failed to mention dubbing being mostly done in historical dramas though so thanks for pointing that out :)

Yes it’s dubbed. The actors do say their dialogues but in c-dramas, most of the time they also have voice actors dubbing for them. This is for a lot of reasons but to name a few: the difference in the actors’ chinese dialects, the actors’ actual voices not matching their characters, the audio being unclear due to filming outside (in this case the actor can dub themselves too) & many other reasons

Fair enough. I myself am among the ones who read the novel & watched the animation haha

I laughed so much at the summary in IQIYI 😂 they basically told the WHOLE story from start to finish

Yep

iirc, the empress dowager forced a random maid to have a son with ML, then killed her after giving birth to have complete control over the son

If there’s one thing I’m hoping for them to change in the drama then it’s the fate of XHD’s son 😢 he didn’t deserve anything than happened to him. He was only born as a mere power tool for the empress dowager 😭
