I can't stop thinking about how pointless the court's attempts at blackening Fang Jianming's name are. It's like trying to bad mouth someone's alter ego to that same person!

I can't believe it took them 37 episodes to show us just what her mermaid tattoo was for!
This whole time...she could levitate pearls and they never once mentioned it?!

I should watch that. Rise pf Phoenixes and Nirvana in Fire.

See what you did?! Now I have gone and binged their other videos!
I watched their One and Only video, and now I just want to rewatch that ! :(

Okay, I'll give her that. It was funny!

I changed the synopsis! It was too confusing before.

No problem! I changed it yesterday after I saw that comment, lol

Speaking of, the emperor said that all zhang emperors have a baix. So does that mean the baixi appear in other novoland stories too?

I changed it already

I think we should wait until the show ends. The true ratings only really come around about two weeks after a show ends. It'll be fine. Don't overthink the ratings. What matters is how much you enjoy watching the show🙂

Yeah, I figured the show has changed a lot about the emperor/Tilan dynamic and that has certainly changed the situation.

I agree! I just love their brotherhood. It felt like the most authentic relationship in the show.I could watch their shenanigans for 40 episodes. The main romance plots just pale in comparison. They seem mechanical, like the characters just have to succumb to romance but that brotherhood was real.

I get that but he's just creating more broken people. He's trying but failing miserably too. I think the character has the potential to be interesting but he's just no doing it for me. Maybe it's the writing, maybe it's the acting. I don't really feel like I am connecting with him. Plus, the emperor was happy with Tilan so Jianming stumbling over himself to make amends feels futile.

Exactly!

That first scene was hilarious. It reminded of this other scene in a show, the guy shoves his gf out of the way to hug his bestfriend😂

That is just some messed up priorities, putting the royal family above one self. It leaves you asking if all the sacrifice is actually worth it.

My problem with those two is how Tilan fell for him. It makes no sense.

Talk about unresolved daddy issues. Damn it, Freud gets this one too!
Jokes aside, it's just all too unfair to Haishi. Even when we consider the difficult decisions that Jianming has to make, it still is not fair how he tortures Haishi.

I think one reason I like this show is because everyone, in their own way, is a victim of terrible circumstances. It's just an interesting set up but it doesn't really change the fact that they also make each other suffer for no reason, either.

All cards on the table: I am absolutely loving the experience of watching this show. It's just such an entertaining show. It's becoming more and more interesting with each episode.
