What Wanning didn't allow herself to believe was that a man, who had buried his loved one alive, wouldn't even…
She couldn't believe that she had been able to corrupt him that well. I believe he had always had this inner bad seed, the need to climb up in status, disguised under the face of "good scholar."
She is now playing chess against her ex. FINALLY we see his true face, when he talked about the spider climbing up. He sees himself as the spider, perhaps poisonous, spinning webs everywhere. I bet he'd manipulated the princess all along, even to get rid of his in-laws and wife.
Please let me know if the episode ends bad/cliffhanger. Thamks!
LOL, I know. But a cliffhanger makes my daily life miserable! All I do all day at work is think about it. The Double is terrible for my mental work space!
Is there a meaning in the scene when jiang li drank the tea given by Duke su in episode 19.Please enlighten me.
It’s an intimate act. He will take her on as his. Hee drinking from it is also intimate. Before he’d offered him tea in four cups and she’d rejected. Now she drinks from HIS cup.
Notice the growth in intimacy after this scene. He takes his clothes OFF and gives her his undergarment. She ACCEPTED it. Later, he gives her his HANKY with his blood on it. She ACCEPTED it (hankies are very important in Chinese courtship ritual). Even later, he gave her a whole set of clothes. 😆😂 Annnnd she ACCEPTED. 😆😂
