Keeping track of all the various names and characters can be tricky, but the King of Haoling (the man that XY…
so I am going to detest CX even more?? yay!! I don’t know what it is but he doesn’t not get it that she doesn’t have the same romantic feeling the way he does. it’s creepy.
I’m rewatching S1 ep 29. FFB wants TJ to deliver goods to Qingshui Town. He implies that what he can offer is XY and TJ says he will never let someone use her for a deal. (Cue FFB silent rage). While there are several layers to this (was FFB going to reveal his sisters affair?) it made me think that TJ knows FFB is XL. Also this ep has so many beautiful TJ/XY scenes.
XL don't wanna change this path even his beloved one begged it 😔.. So XY has to give up XL... XY always ready…
I’m here for that. I do love XL and his growth is nothing short of extraordinary. He started out so toxic and still has anger issues. But he is committed to his cause and can’t give it up for her.
I love how detailed DW's acting is. I know some people don't like his character and they are going to skip his…
I totally agree. Where people call the character weak, I find that because DW really conveys that he is the most selfless man in her life. Despite the obstacles he never wavers.
My favourite scene of episode 22; "But you haven't addressed me as Your Highness, have you? Now, the price consort's…
SML is relying on the past and how easily he seduced and betrayed FL. He’s only just realizing ML is not repeating the mistakes. He has no clue FL & ML are working together. And I am here for it.
I’ve seen some comments recently that TSJ gave XY empty promises (thus not deserving HEA with XY) and it got me thinking about other promises in the show.
XC promised to come and get XY before they are separated as children. We may not hold a child responsible for not being able to keep the promise due to circumstances beyond their control. Nonetheless, this is the contributing factor in her feeling abandoned.
XY promises to take care of old Mu until he dies. Then she leaves and I assume he has died (maybe in the 37 years she was asleep). XY is sincere when she says it but ultimately she does not fulfill the promise.
TSJ promised to be with XY but due to filial piety and deceit, he is forced to break it.
I am rewatching so if I come across others I will add to this.
I laughed out loud in my rewatch when XY promised to keep Jing from being bullied.
My point is that most of these promises are absolutely sincere when they were spoken. it’s just that life happens and not
