Yes, it's a stand alone story. You dont need to watch other Novoland series

The pacing of this drama indeed is getting weird. There are still a lot of contents, but the show is moving way slower than it should be. I hope they will not let us hanging with the intention to have a season 2 in the future.

Is she going to end up with Tang then? It would suck for both her and the king to be stucked in their toxic relationship.

Thank you.

I agree with you. Sometimes, happy ending means staying alone with the child. No man needed if they are not worthy to spend a lifetime with.

Would you please give a linm to the novel? I couldnt find it anywhere.

What? Then is she still going to stay with the king? Is she a villian? What is she scheming?

Does anyone know if Tilan is going to die in the show later? I don't even know why they created her character. No one really knows what's going on in her mind. She has not done anything impactful other than acting as weak, fragile and innocent victim. I wouldn't even consider she's a protagonist because most of her moves were calculated and she was not innocent as she's trying to portray. Always provoking the king and deliberately dressed like her sister to seduce him, couldn't she just seduce him by using her good traits? Imitate my sister's image to seduce her husband is messed up even though her sister had passed away. Don't blame on circumstances, if she truly was noble innocent, she wouldn't have done that. These are the thing HS would never done to anyone. There should not be a happy ending for the king and Tilan. This is just a toxic relationship, it would be weird to have them suddenly madly in love.

This show would be much better with that Tilan girl. I just can't stand her.

The king should've be with Tilan either. I do not like her. She's acting weak, fragile and innocent but calculated, cunning and insincere. No one really knows what she has on her mind. Imagine marrying a person like that, it wouldn't go well with me.

I don't know what FZ was thinking but HS is a type of women that when a man push them away, they will forever be gone. She is a very straightforward person, those types don't usually play push and pull. I think FZ is lame in a sense, he likes her but couldn't come to her because of circumstances. He's a protagonist for god sake, shouldn't he find a way to make it happen? That's how he's been doing in his life and career but couldn't do it in a relationship? He deserves to lose her with that attitude.

Why do I feel like supporting roles have more screen time than main leads? Im sick and tired of watching Tilan and the emperor, feels like this show is more about them than HS and FZ.

In many Asia countries and in Asian's culture, there's still no such thing as r**e between husband and wife in 2021. In the ancient time, it was even worst because men can do pretty much whatever they wanted as long as they married to them. Please understand that you're watcing a Chinese show and not an American show. Therefore, the show was made under their perspective of things. Right or wrong is just depends on thoughts and cultural practices.

I really dislike that Tilan girl. She's scheming something big. Purposely dressing like her late sister to provoke the emperor wasn't something innocent. Who the hell would do that to her own late sister's husband? That messed up, what did she expect for doing thing like that. I'm not saying what the emperor did was right.

I don't think the emperor will treat Haishi the same way he's been treating Tilan. It's the fact that Tilan always provoke him, seducing him on one hand but push him away on the other hand. She's acting as if she is sincere, weak and fragile but fake, calculated and cunning. However, Haishi is totally different. She will speak her mind and take action on what is right. She does not afraid of the emperor or acting faked in front of him. I think he has already respected her because of her characteristics.

For some reasons, i do not like Tilan's characters. She seems sincere but fake. Fragile, weak but calculated. She said she loves the emperor but doesn't feel like she loves him. Something about her that I do not like, but I just couldn't figure it out.

Back then they could married to multiple women but only one main wife who would be in charge of all the other wives of the guy.

This show was great in the beginning then went straight down to hell. What the heck? Did they hire a new writer team?

Correct me if im wrong, but why do i feel like the emperor is falling slowly for Tilan? Even though he bullied her but he seemed to do that because he's falling for her and didnt want to feel guilty to his late wife. I hope they dont make him to fall in love with two women (Tilan and HS) at the same time. That would be weird 😕

Does anyone know who will she(Haishi) end up with in the novel? Would it be her teacher or the emperor?
