I knew they were going to capture Ming Zhu’er as soon as everyone left that place, leaving him only with Zhao Zhi’er. It was so obvious.
Ooooooooh, the confrontation with Zhou Ji Liang. Finally! In front of Ming Zhu’er too, yay!
Shao Ji Zu, what are you up to? You’re plotting something of your own aren’t you?
Huo Linglong and Xiao Tang showing up to help the Huo family, aww.
I just can’t. The Western Xia guy’s hairstyle is just so ridiculous that I really struggle to take him seriously. The fight killed two birds with one stone, good.
Yes, splitting up when Zhan Zhao is barely able to stand on his feet is a wonderful idea.
Huo Linglong... I get it, you want answers but do you really think they’re just going to give them to you rather than lock you up again?
Oh, interesting. It’s not her father or her brother after all, huh? A good one, I admit, I really did not see it coming even though I had a feeling we already met the fourth person, just don’t realise it’s them. Or is there still more to it than just that?
Whenever they bring up the past, I can’t help but hope they give us an explanation of how Zhan Zhao went from being a Yaksha to working for Kaifeng Court.
The Hu guy screaming about how he’s better than the people that were sacrificed, and how he will never get sacrificed himself… My money is on his fate very much being just that – learning just how wrong he was when he is, very much, sacrificed.
One thing I’m not entirely sure I follow is how the Yaksha copycats in the capital being bad for Zhan Zhao. Shouldn’t they actually work in his favour, given he’s nowhere near? Unless it’s more about the attitude of the people towards the Yaksha, then yeah I suppose it could be harmful.
But, at least we get an explanation of what Zhao Zhi’er is up to when he’s acting so sus. And of course they are trying to turn Ming Zhu’er against Zhan Zhao.
Zhao Zhi’er, just who are you sending these messages to, eh? Don’t tell me the main reason why you are tagging along is to spy on the group…
Honestly, Zhan Zhao, stop with this trailing off. I want to know the full story of what happened with Ming Zhu’er’s family.
Well, at least we are past putting up appearances, and they are openly enemies with Magistrate Hu now.
Seriously guys, you know that Zhan Zhao now knows where this Lin manor is, and you still go about things business as usual? Shouldn’t you perhaps try to be a bit more careful?
Why do I have a feeling Si Ming is going to end up dead before they have a chance to bring him to justice?
I really like the whole act that the group is putting up for Magistrate Hu. The guy was not even subtle in the way he was trying to sow discord in the group and split them up, and all of his actions in town until that point were such an obvious show.
I’m so happy that for once, a drama offers a character that is not so blinded by any past they share with someone not to consider that they may have changed and not be the person they remember anymore, or that they might be the villain that they are looking for. Bai Yutang may still be my favourite, but Zhan Zhao really scored a lot of points with me here.
I have very mixed feelings about Zhan Zhao’s attitude to letting Ming Zhu’er know about the past. On one hand, I kinda understand but at the same time, I can’t help wondering if part of his attitude isn’t because there is more to it than just what we have been made to believe until that point. But, it doesn’t change the fact that the longer he keeps it away from him, the messier it will be when the truth comes out eventually.
Also, Zhao Zhi’er – him bringing it up so out of the blue with Ming Zhu’er makes me all the more suspicious.
Hahaha, Bai Yutang with his acts of tough love. “I’m not one for comforting words” – that makes me love him all the more.
Thank you for your appreciation! I had a blast putting this article together for two talented ladies plus the…
"Why would this article be lost amongst other articles? Is there something you've noticed that I am not aware of?" - For one, there is a ton of this pseudo-news that, if I'm perfectly honest, don't deserve to be qualified as news because it's just pure trashy, sensational, clickbait type of gossip, so anything else just drowns under them. But I also wasn't able to find it in a news section, which is usually the only one I look at, it's only when I began to scroll while looking for something else that I was able to see it. So, between these two things, it was not easy to find.
I'm 100% looking forward to all of LYQ's dramas. I loved him in "The Double", he was the best ML in "Perfect Match" for me, and the main reason why I watched "Feud". I'm sure I'll enjoy others, too :)
Ahh, The Truth Within... Now that's a title I just loved so much...
A lovely article that goes in depth about its topic! Finally something of quality! This site could definitely use more works like this instead of trashy gossip. It's such a shame that posts like this get lost in the sea of clickbaits that don't offer anything.
The drama has been on my list for a while now, pretty much ever since I found out Liang Yongqi was part of the cast. I've only seen him - and Wu Jinyan, too - in costume dramas, so I'm curious to see them in a modern one. I'm definitely looking forward to watching it!
I knew that Zhu Mingyuan was supiscious. I still don't think Magistrate Hu is all squeaky clean, though.
I want to say that Shao Jizu being the illegitimate son seems to be a bit too easy and too obvious. Huo Feng really would fit much better, although I'm still not convinced the guy isn't just lying to them. So as far as I know, we still don't have a clear, actual answer here.
Zhao Zhi Er, what are you up to man? That wasn't suspicious at all...
Only one episode tomorrow, again. Viki you are killing me... And then there's probably going to be none for the next few days, and the last few released one at a time... T__T
I am quite sure they have both shown up already. We just don't know them by their real identities and not by those…
Agreed. I think either Linglong's dad or someone in the family in general and he's 100% aware of what's going on. As to the other one - yes, either Magistrate Hu or the older guy that is helping around with info and leading them to places. I know he doesn't seem to have a high position but he clearly holds respect, so it could be just a 'disguise' of sorts to fool the group.
The way the people were shouting at that friend to kill the guy, and how nobody batted an eye when he was actually killed, makes me think this is how the order in that place might have been established.
It's interesting that Zhan Zhao has made such a turn, and I imagine as we learn more, it's only going to make more and more sense why his attitude had become the way it did.
Viki is really killing me with those one episode a day days... T__T
Jin Zhenping, with every single word, and every single scene, the guy is revealing himself to be bigger and bigger scum. And the old guy is actually shielding him from taking responsibility... And then he acts as if Bai Yutang should protect the Jin family's reputation, as if he had any reason to. And even threatening him. That whole family deserves to fall down from its pedestal very, very hard.
Still loving Zuo Ye's performance here. Even if it's a small role - although bigger than I expected it to be when I found out he's here - a part of me is almost sad to see the arc coming to an end.
Obviously, Zhan Zhao is not dying yet. I am now unsure whether I want them to figure out a way to cure him, because it would be very sad for him to be killed off at the end of this drama, or if I actually would like to see a drama make such a bold move, even if it will probably be quite devastating.
Xiao Tang, I'm glad I wasn't wrong about you.
Zhan Zhao :O Okay, I don't believe he actually killed the guy, he probably just made everyone believe so while he hid him or something.
Jin Xuewen writing the prescription for the antitode for the poison, and the dagger was indeed a pair the second one being given to Jin Zhenping... Looks like the guy is even worse than I initially thought he was. And of course there is an explanation for the confession, too.
Hahaha, the Prince telling everyone BUT Shao Jizu to stand up <3
Xiao Tang... I really am hoping you are putting on a show that you agreed on with Zhan Zhao and Huo Linglong, otherwise I will be very disappointed in you.
You despicable old fart! How dare you hurt my Bai Yutang!
And Viki, why are you doing this to me, giving only one episode today... T__T
Of course he got down by simply rolling off that cliff and not dying. Bc that is how they roll in c-dramas!
Oh my, you are right, I completely forgot! XD Yeah, he probably just jumped down or something because who ever dies from this kind of thing. Makes perfect sense!
Aww, Bai Yutang wanting to do exactly what his brother had done 15 years earlier... Climbing up to that cave is one thing, but I'm kinda more curious how on earth did they actually get down from there lol
So Si Ming is actually not quite the person they expected him to be. I wonder what his role is, then.
Although, with only so many episodes to go, and then still having not dealt with Mr. Bad Guy #2, a part of me is worried that they are going to rush dealing with the remaining two... I hope not, I am enjoying this so much exactly because they are taking their time revealing and untangling the whole mess, so it would be a shame for it to get ruined.
Honestly, every single episode makes me think Bai Yutang having nothing to do with the Jin family for however many years is probably the best thing that happened to him.
The Jiangs are not much better. I knew that lady was suspicious from the moment she approached Linglong and I agree with HLL - they all speak about feeling sorry, about feeling remorse, but when it comes down to actually doing something right for a change, it all suddenly vanishes.
I am also starting to worry about Xiao Tang with the situation he now found himself in...
I knew they were going to capture Ming Zhu’er as soon as everyone left that place, leaving him only with Zhao Zhi’er. It was so obvious.
Ooooooooh, the confrontation with Zhou Ji Liang. Finally! In front of Ming Zhu’er too, yay!

Yes, splitting up when Zhan Zhao is barely able to stand on his feet is a wonderful idea.
Honestly, Shao Ji Zu, stop embarrassing yourself. She openly tells you the plan and you still think she’s going to tell you what you want to know?
Awwwww, the scene when Huo Linglong walks out and finds Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang waiting for her. I love moments like this between the trio.
Honestly, why does it feel like the trio got themselves discovered on purpose? They weren’t even really trying not to be seen there…
Oh just stop teasing us already, and let Ming Zhu’er know the truth finally. You can’t be knocking him out all the time lol
And yaaay, I knew Magistrate Hu will find himself used and discarded like that lol 100% deserved.
Huo Linglong... I get it, you want answers but do you really think they’re just going to give them to you rather than lock you up again?
Oh, interesting. It’s not her father or her brother after all, huh? A good one, I admit, I really did not see it coming even though I had a feeling we already met the fourth person, just don’t realise it’s them. Or is there still more to it than just that?

Ooooh, don't tell me Huo Linglong's dad is the Bad Guy #3.
Of course, nobody has any choice in anything. It's funny how they all never have any other choice.
And of course, I knew Zhan Zhao didn't kill Jin Zhenping. It would be way too OOC for him.
Aww, Zhan Zhao giving Bai Yutang an eagle kite.
I don't know, that new place seems sus, it all sounds too good to be true.
Jin Zhenping, with every single word, and every single scene, the guy is revealing himself to be bigger and bigger scum. And the old guy is actually shielding him from taking responsibility...
