I think it was his mom n sis that took the Princess gifts n rewards first to get favour from Princess. The Princess…
FL family might be doomed cause magistrate xue found out about the illegal mine. But FL would have been save, if SYR didn't go along with the eldest princess plans. Yes, his mother and sister framed XFF out of greediness for more wealth, but what did he do about it? He went along with their evil plans, killed his wife and became Wanning's dog.
He loved his wife? Yes, he might have loved his wife, but he deemed her life as less important when compared to the reputation of the Shen family. The moment he killed his wife, he lost the right to love her.
Depending on when the former Emperor got Concubine Li and how old she was at the time, they could be around the…
No, I think Yaoruo is 16, JL is 19. So, JSR is in her late 30s cause judging from her backstory about her relationship with the imperial diviner, she's in her 20s back then, and that's over a decade ago. The emperor's age is similar to XH, so I think he's not beyond the age of 20. Do you remember the backstory of XH a decade ago when his father died? He's a young boy at the time, so its either he's 19 or 20.
I think the eldest princess is older than the emperor, king chen is the eldest son of the late emperor I guess. And judging from the close relationship of Wanning and king Cheng, they have the same mother, but different mother with the emperor. Overall, JSR being in her 30s, and consort Li as her sister, that means the emperor is younger than her, probably more than a few years younger.
I was thinking about that too, like damn, he married his (former) step mom? That would be a spicy side story ngl
Even so, she'd still be older than the emperor, considering she's the younger sister of JSR. And although, there's no backstory about the emperor, he seem to have taken over from his father a bit too young, and judging from how he and XH interacts, you could tell they are around the same age. XH is around JL age, and if the emperor is also around that age then it means, consort Li is older than him, more than a few years I'd say, don't you agree?
Now he wants to find some dignity. Not sure he can.
Go after her? Do you mean he'll try to harm her, or chase her in hope of a second chance? If it's the former, then he should dream on, does he take JL as a fool? JL is no fool to give such a despicable man a second chance, what he needs is his retribution. Besides, what woman would give a wife killer who buried her alive another chance? Yes he's not in the right state of mind, he's slowly losing it. SYR had better not try anything with JL, cause he might end up dead sooner than later. Jealous XH might just be his retribution, don't you agree?
Depending on when the former Emperor got Concubine Li and how old she was at the time, they could be around the…
Who doesn't have the same mother as whom? Are you referring to consort Li and JSR? If so, then you're wrong, they have the same mother. Do you remember when JSR father was talking about how he didn't remarry after their mother died, lest they feel mistreated? I also wasn't sure they had the same mother before, but confirmed it in episode 28. Consort Li doesn't only looks older than the emperor, she's older than him, that's for sure.
Now he wants to find some dignity. Not sure he can.
Dignity? Of course he can't, he's lost his dignity ages ago. It's unrecoverable, he should just stay obediently as Wanning's dog. If he's lucky, he could be made prince consort before Wanning is taken down, if he's not, he'll perish at the hands of the eldest princess.
Depending on when the former Emperor got Concubine Li and how old she was at the time, they could be around the…
They can't be the same age, not when consort Li is JSR sister. It's definitely not possible. JSR has a child that's already an adult, and judging from the age difference between siblings in ancient times, their age difference can't exceed 4/5 years. XH and the emperor are around the same age. So, consort Li is more than a few years older than the emperor. People couldn't say anything because he's the emperor.
I was thinking about that too, like damn, he married his (former) step mom? That would be a spicy side story ngl
Exactly, the late emperor was his father, but he still took consort Li as his consort? If I add everything up, she'd be more than a few years older than him. Consort Li used to be the late emperor's consort, and also is JSR sister. JSR has a daughter of such age, and I'm quite sure the age gap between those two sisters can't exceed four years. Besides, the emperor and XH age are similar, so, that means, he didn't just marry his stepmom, but someone older than him, probably old enough to be his aunt. If such story is turned into a drama, the plot would be more than interesting, don't you agree?
I also think that the emperor might be considering putting her life in danger if needed.
Mee too, I like the way he looks when he gets jealous. He becomes a different person when he's with JL, he doesn't show his emotions to others, but shows them to her whenever he's with her. Their chemistry keeps getting more and more firing!!
"Our daily expenses at the Shen family are from my hard work, not from the eldest princess rewards"! So, this wife killer knows this, but still killed his wife knowing that fact? I just can't stand how hypocritical he is.
SYR said; "Is the Shen family eldest princess's dog"? Aren't they? From the moment he framed and buried XFF alive, they've become the Wanning's dog, more worse than a dog if you ask me.
Shuran kept repeating that she was forced to do it. I wonder if Consort Li forced her to commit all her heinous…
Yes, they're sisters, biological sisters to be precise. I'm just not sure whether consort Li forced her to commit those crimes. I think she meant, she had to do it to survive.
I also think that the emperor might be considering putting her life in danger if needed.
He's been lovey dovey with her for a while now, I remember the look on his face when LJ was comparing him to YSJ, he looked jealous. You bet, should a mishap occur, I'm pretty sure the rescue is going to be an epic one!!
In 30 & 31 he doesn't say this. The emperor most probably will not be against their relationship. Even though…
I was referring to the emperor, he's the one who told XH not to get his emotions involved. The emperor mind is not easy to decipher? Yes, he's not easy to read, but I don't think he wants to get rid of consort Li, if he wanted to, why didn't he do so years ago? He didn't just spare her, he even took her as his consort. Now, does he have the right to talk about not having emotions?
I also think that the emperor might be considering putting her life in danger if needed.
I'm also excited for what's to come next. With all the schemings and planning that's going on, I'd like to see how Duke Su will protect JL should a mishap occur.
