He is but I quite enjoy his insanity when he told the Princess FXY though. People will hate me for saying this but I do feel sorry for her when XHS slapped her. No matter how delusional she is, he shouldn’t have lifted his hand on a woman sorry.
Episode 26You dumb idiot of an Emperor… All you needed to do was tell Murong Sr. what you were thinking not…
Very well put. The emperor has driven everyone including PM Zhuang, the former empress, current empress, FSG & Murong senior all in rage. Oh my god, after the showdown he had with FSG & FYX, he went all out on revenge mode for what PM did to the former empress. Kudos to him for the performance. My heart is racing & dreading for episode 28 tomorrow with MY’s guards chasing FSG & FYX. How could Murong sr be persuaded by the empress to be aligned with her schemes?
Well, I’m not so sure about MY creating the rift between him & FSG to save his best friend . How does that…
Sorry, do you mean Murong Sr may be blackmailed by PM Zhuan in killing FSG? In episode 24 preview, do you think that the emperor is trying to test FSG & officials’ loyalty by faking his terminal illness/coma? I was wondering if that stabbing/burial scene of FSG is after the death of the emperor or during?
Well, I’m not so sure about MY creating the rift between him & FSG to save his best friend . How does that…
Good points, I would think perhaps a combination of your theories 2 & 3 as I may have found it hard for Murong Senior to go through with 1. The way Murong Sr responded the PM Zhuang that FSG should be the emperor & not the second prince makes me think that there may be some hope with Murong Sr of talking MY out of his grievances. Like you have indicated, it may be a fake stabbing to expose all the villains. I do think that Murong Sr must know the reason why the emperor wanted him to guard the north border because the north is strategic for Chinese’s peace & security. In addition, the emperor trusted him & also perhaps wants to keep him safe away from the court’s politics. I recall that throughout Chinese history, China had always been attacked by the enemies from the north so what would the emperor do, employ the most trusted general in the north?
Episode 22The way the Empress is speaking about Feng Suige’s mother, how the Emperor “every trace of her existence”,…
Well, I’m not so sure about MY creating the rift between him & FSG to save his best friend . How does that justify this when we will watch the scene where he will stab FSG with his father strangling him scene? I get his resentment towards FSG but how can he resent FSG when they are both children & no decision in the matter? MY is ambitious & he may choose the wrong path unfortunately.
It occurs to me that in episode 18 when the emperor fell sick, FSG talked to Enuch Ma about how the emperor entrusted him with his secret army. I hope enuch Ma will not turn against FSG after the emperor dies.
