Since Pei Yi and Haio Jin are wearing red, I have to assume that they just got married. They should have showed us the wedding scene.

I looked for it because I read the comments earlier. I just finished episode 34.

That final episode post end credit scene hints that the production company might be retooling the deleted content into a Season 2.... The Rise and Fall of the Crown Prince.

Emperor might not even remember all his children's names. 😁😁

At the rate the Emperor is going, he could live another twenty years, and CP might be in his fifties. LOL I am guessing he is 30ish. He won't hold out that long for his promotion.

How old was CP fifteen years ago, to plot the demise of his uncle, Prince of Duan?

I guessed the tall man with Chen Luo was the Crown Prince. He must be waiting for a long time to become Emperor, and his father is going nowhere anytime soon.

If the villain (e.g. Chancellor) tries to kill Emperor, and Li Pei Yi kills him (e.g. Chancellor), then Emperor will reward her. I have a feeling Chancellor will return.

He is a typical ruler, with no sympathy for an employee who died in front of him. He wouldn't care if the body was thrown to the sharks.

I figured out the HDY title. I forgot about the drama after it was announced. I will bingewatch it this weekend. I am glad it has completed.

A couple of years ago, I watched two costume dramas concurrently on YouTube, and I started to mix up the two main lead actors and the plots as I waited for the new episodes.

I forgot all about this drama after it was announced. Something to start this week! Now that it ended, I can bingewatch the whole thing. 😁😁

Me, too! I thought both Master Du and Mr Xiao decided to send the little girl to the crown prince for safekeeping in the palace.

I forgot that he was awake 24/7 for two weeks working on a chart for the Emperor. I didn't follow what the chart was for.

He saved both lives.

Jiang Li Hua has the sole writing credit on MDL, while the WDY dramawiki page lists five writers.

Screenwriter: Wang Huan, Fan Jing, Jiang Li Hua, Zhou Ying Lei (周莹蕾), Liu Qian Ci (刘芊粢)

If she leaves the Bureau, she might go looking for Cui in his hometown.

He is probably ruling by example. How his father ruled the kingdom.

I am wondering if Emperor is trying to protect his dead father's legacy. Previously, one of the characters said that the old emperor thought the Prince LI was planning a rebellion, by bringing his Iron Army into the capital. If he didn't trust his son, he might have told Cui to seize the Prince. Did Cui take it one step further, and order Lu Chong Shan to wipe out the entire family and servants? Emperor has regarded his children as expendable. We haven't seen his crown prince either.

He might be calling in a Sick Day. 😆 I am waiting for Mom to beg Pei Yi to save him.

I was confused why he was lying in bed. He was not previously injured. He might be pretending to be ill, waiting for Pei Yi to rush to him, to beg for his forgiveness.
