I think the more I look at the ML, the more attractive and adorable I find him to be. I find him so charming when…
Yeah its strange, I had heard that but I found didn't enjoy her acting at all. I dropped A Girl Like Me because of her. I thought the ML was dull but at least he didn't annoy me.

I wouldn't exactly say she becomes weak. Actually I don't think she regresses that much, she just doesn't progress.…
Indeed... as double first cousins they can go on and create the next generation of stupid that will surpass their stupidity... And that my friend is called progress!

... when you hand a sword to your captive so that they can turn the tables on you. Slaps forehead.
I actually feel what she said to Helan Zhen is far more cruel than killing him. Every moment I spend with you is torture and I wish you would disappear forever. Those words ringing in his ears is like a stab in the heart multiple times.

I agree, her judgement is highly questionable. But I also feel HZ is really pathetic. I mean XQ saved him and gave a a shot at ruling a powerful country and he blows it all chasing after a married woman who wishes he would disappear forever. I mean what a sad f**k! Maybe that is why she is looking at him with pity in her eyes. And to be fair to HZ, she should never have danced with him like that - she is partially at fault for her second kidnapping. If she had listened to XQ and just avoided him completely when he was in the capital, he MAY not have gotten the wrong idea that she would accept him if XQ were dead.

I could say the same for Zidan and Huai En - that is my main problem with the men in the drama - these men could all be the same person with the exact same goal (obtain Wang Xuan) by killing XQ bc Wang Xuan is that kind of woman? That she will just happily go off with her hubby's murderer??? Which is why like you I find Wang Lin to be the only really interesting character in this drama - he at least has a comprehensible motive and he is smart.

Wanru's hate for Awu was an unnecessary and poorly developed deviation from the novel.
I abandoned the novel part-way but according to other readers that is correct.

... why she keeps taking everyone's side against her father. If these people were worthy I wouldn't mind so much.…
I forgave her naivete in the beginning because she was a sheltered and pampered princess with no world view... But she went through a lot of what would be eye opening experiences for most people... And she does tend to attract the dumbest men ever to the point of obsession... (ex XQ of course). I personally think XQ would have been way better off with Hu Yao. She is at least just as brave and she is actually smart.

I wouldn't exactly say she becomes weak. Actually I don't think she regresses that much, she just doesn't progress. Her judgement was very questionable from the beginning - how she forgives Emperor Ma, protects Wang Qian, Zilong, her dealings with Helan Zhen, now Zidan etc etc. It is literally one questionable decision after another. It s miracle she hasn't gotten herself (and Xiao Qi) killed dead many times over already. I give her high marks for bravery but really low marks for brains.

My biggest beef with Wang Xuan is...
... why she keeps taking everyone's side against her father. If these people were worthy I wouldn't mind so much. But they are not. They are ALL bad people - Emperor Ma, Zidan, Zilong, Wanru, aunty Dowager Empress... at least her dad is smart. All these people she takes so much risk for are dumb as rocks. Her priorities are really f**ked up. And yeah Wang Lin is ambitious, selfish and ruthless but he has not shown himself to be worse than these clowns she is so busy defending. And damn, Wang Lin is a good villain... if you gotta be a villain at least be good at it. Unlike that Zidan who is just a real total zero... he is so incompetent he can't even get being a bad guy right.

So, the Empress Dowager and the Empress really spent all their time and energy plotting against Awu and Xiao Qi…

I agree her character has not gotten smarter or stronger in the latest episodes. That said, if I were stuck between the devil (Helan Zhen) and the deep blue sea (Helan Tuo) its a coin toss and she chose the devil she knows. In the same situation, I would have done the same thing rather than to do Helan Tuo's dirty work for him (he didn't want to kill his own cousin) and then be killed by him right after that. She was gonna die either way - she chose the better way IMHO.

I think what she did was smart - she decided she trusts Helan Zhen more than Helan Tuo. Helan Tuo would not have let her go after she killed Helan Zhen.

I think you are gonna see a little bit of that kind of BGM in this one too... I actually like it, it is something Tarantino does in his movies as well.

Oh I find him hilarious and adorable - he is so engaging he puts the idol candidate villain to shame. As someone who also loves Western drama I much prefer actors with interesting faces and nuanced performances over idols and it is nice to see Chinese audiences coming to appreciate this more. I just dropped something else to watch this because I couldn't stand to see the idol actor's wide-eyed simpering anymore it just took me out of the drama.
