Doubt so, he's still a main character even if he died today, he probably has second most screentime after zang hai himself

Yes, as a sub plot but don't expect much, just a little.

I think it was time to end his story, they spend a lot of time on him already and there are 3 villains, they'll likely focus on the 3rd villain from now on.

Not all emperors were imposing and commanding tho, there were emperors in history which are mere puppets controlled by eunuch.

FL's mother is Queen of Dongxia, FL is the princess

Yes, as a sub plot but dont get in the drama only for romance

But he's not playing along, he's exposing left and right this past eps, he exposed his hidden place under the house to his female trainer, he exposed himself, his past , his plans to marquis, him blindly believe marquis son and so on.

All in all, I don't see any reason why he exposed himself so early in front of marquis when he has 2 other enemies which he hasn't touched yet or even know for sure who is the 3rd one, not even knowing if marquis can make a return.

I hope he has a bigger plan because that was foolish.

Oh god Ms Eight is Antu's only friend and they have been together since kids, I don't want to think of her betraying Antu, especially going that far to poison her, will be horrible.

I think zang hai is lead by the nose by people around him, he need to stop, take a step back and start observing people around him, people he consider enemies and friends.

Not sure what to say about him not having much power, he let Antu run what's look like a secret organization and he did it for a reason. He seams like the scheming type.

I read that the whole boat scene was a improvisation.

If it was decided before that day then make even less sense since the princess wasnt in his kingdom, do you think a 10 years stayed at the table during war (because lets remember it was war time) with marquis and eunuch in Dongxia and planned to kill his parents ?

As for owning the house, that happened much later. He didn't even knew Antu is the princess when he first insisted shes 3rd person.

Don't get me wrong, im not talking about him suspecting her but him insisting shes 3rd person which is illogical and hes a smart guy.

I don't care overall but i think he let his emotions cloud his thinking, which is in character if we remember what his master said.

The princess was a prisoner tho or a war trophy and it was her first day in the country, even if she wanted, she didn't had anybody to do dirty work for her.

Also 2 high ranking officials wont listen to a 10 years old princess from a enemy kingdom after meeting her for 1 day.

Realistically no matter how you think it doesn't make sense for her to be 3rd person.

Zanghai knew the princess was 10 years old when his parents died, his master told him one episode before, shes basically same age as him.

And even the master told him is impossible shes the 3rd person (thats before he knew who the princess was), not sure why he insisted on her being 3rd person but emotions is one hell drug , i guess he badly wanted to find 3rd person and he finally got a clue and didn't think straight.

Then when he saw Antu, he feel a sense of betrayal and all emotions come at once which clouded his thinking for a moment.

Zang Hai holds the blade after he was already stabbed, he's lucky marquis son isn't a cold blood criminal so he hesitated and got scared to actually kill him and didn't push the blade further or chose a vital part but this was pure luck, if the son was more crazy, he'll stab him in heart or cut his neck before he realizes something happened.

He can't, he said in one episode don't remember which that he didn't learn martial arts

Xiao zhan acting was amazing in ep 24 today, all the emotions, rage.

The confruntation between princess and ML was intense but needed for the story to move on. and them learning about each other's past and goals.

The way ML made the marquis and eunuch into enemies was amazing but too risky, if the marquis son stabbed in one of his vital parts, he would be gone and no revenge need. I usually like a little bit how he takes risks but this was too much, still amazing but hopefully he learn he doesn't have 9 lives and he kinda used his life's luck already lol.

Edit: also I think the marquis started to suspect zang hai

He wasn't framed lol, he's still keeping his parents skin and clothes over the wall like a trophy.
I'll never ship them, not romantic and in any other form, just thinking somebody shipping me with my parents murder make my skin crawl.

With that saying the actor which play the marquis is amazing and I actually like the marquis role as a villain.

She definitely isn't, she was a kid when his parents were murdered. I don't see any possibility.

In ep 19 her friend said she has a cold, maybe is one of that colds which you can't escape from. Lol
