Ditto!

Its a race to the bottom!!!😅😂🤡🤦🏻‍♀️

Haven't given a 10 since NIF.

In any case, the way everything is coming to a resolution in Susha tells me that the final villain is going to be XJS and not MY or Zhuang.

Yeah he is almost (too) good a guy. I just hope he doesn't get turned to save his son.

Its debatable - FYX/we won't ever know his true intention as it never played out. But I kind of believe he meant what he said. XJS may have lied to him. I also don't think XJS ever meant to kill FSG, just capture him and hold him as a hostage at Jinxiu so that Susha would surrender to them. Princes never get killed when they are captured - they are much more valuable alive.

Yes you are right - I forgot about that scene. Besides FSG, no one is deserving or that empathetic in this drama.

Thx I will look for it when I get there.

MY claims his plans were never directed at harming FSG. And it doesn't make sense that MY would plan the battle on the Pingling side - that is purely XJS's territory. You can say he is a traitor but you can also say he is freeing his country from an unfit ruler.🤷🏻‍♀️😃

Exactly! Its a repeated theme in this drama - someone hits someone else and then gets mad when that person hits back!!!

That was a terrific scene - shows he must have hated her for years for that utterly tone deaf comment.

Hahaha - I haven't had time to continue that after ep 2 but sounds funny.

So far, the full extent of MY's collaboration with XJS is unknown but it looks like neither side fully shared their plans with each other. We do know however that it was XJS's plan to use his citizens as bait to lure FSG into the city so I mostly hold him accountable for that. MY knows FSG well and may have assured XJS that FSG would never actually kill civilians who are btw XSJ's citizens and not MY or FSG's citizens. I don't think MY would make a better ruler than FSG but if we are choosing between the weakling 2nd prince and MY, its a no brainer bc with him at the throne, the kingdom falls for sure. Not to mention FSG won't be able to ride off into the sunset with FYX, he is going to have to risk his life every day protecting the benevolent idiot.

Ah ok... well idk I don't watch previews so I didn't take that into account. What I do know is FSG's bro on the throne would be a unsatisfactory ending for me.

Lol... me too... BUT the slight darkness in YH and BQ's scenes don't age well. That is probably also why IMHO they were much hotter.

He claims he never meant to harm FSG. I believe that. But as I posted earlier on, he chose his alias Meng Junran for a reason. It is a word play that means among other things fierce, capable leader but also a wise and benevolent one. FSG's brother would be none of the above and if someone doesn't topple him in a heartbeat, Jinxiu will conquer them.

He rebels against FSG's father's imperial privilege. Greedy is not the word I would use.

The love scenes bear an uncanny resemblance to TMOPB's most famous love scenes. With a much more PC take of course.

Tbh I had more fun with the father slapping the son.

Ancient drama booty call.🧐🫢😍
