Sigh! They always go downhill right about the time express comes along. Its like if they bombard you with episodes…
That was his teacher/king who gave him a snake in his childhood to confirm what kind of person the teacher thought he was. The king tested all these students for further reference. He knew these where the people he would need or need to exploit or need to kill in the future. I would make an argument for him being more controlled than frightened? Either way I get your point.
He did not have to poison his classmate/friend with a snake. He did not have to hack his look alike in the head.…
It was the same stab technique the Tiemo king taught the other guy. It incapacitate them. Difficult to recover from. Long term damage. Everything we have seen the little emperor do is exactly what he has done - on his own valition in most cases. There was no back story to him hacking his look alike in the head. There was no back story to him chopping the stocker to pieces. We are not going to see eye-2-eye on this one. Nor come close like we typically do. 😅 Still, as always, I respect your opinion, enjoy your posts, and look forward to catching up with you again next year. Have a lovely holiday!

Well the second thrust was on purpose. Broke my heart. Biggest emotional drama reaction for me since the beginning of 2025. Okay, it might be xmas too and my brothers are driving me MAD.

Wow. Going to call this a generous holiday spirit view. You are a nicer person than I. My view on snake poisoning, head hacking, chopping a body to bits, and stabbing a brother/family member tends towards a black and white view. You are and evil SOB who will do it again or you are not. Not unlike managing a large group of people - believe what they show you not what they say.

OMG!!! < --- This. He had options!! It makes me beyond annoyed that so many here can not see the truth of it. The need to make excuses or a stone cold killer or cling to a redemption arch leaves me disheartened.
I love the scene between the Xiao brothers even though Xiao Wenjing stabbed his brother. Xiao Wuyang is too good,…
Why. Why. Why. Why the need for a redemption, or rationalization, or wiggle room with YWJ? Ask yourself if you would ever, under any circumstances, poison one of your best friends with a snake, hack someone in the head, chop another human to pieces, stab your brother, etc. There are no circumstance that make any of it okay.
And, just because the old emperor is a good guy acting in good will does not mean that the bad guy he is talking too - the baby emperor - is also good. YWJ 100% did not need to stab his brother twice nor did he need to have the look of enjoyment on his face when he did it like all his other killings.
Evil is as evil does. Xiao Wen Jing is an unredeemable bad guy with a black heart. The only reason to make any excuse for him is that the writer may need him at the end to be the returning emperor. Which just means they have an evil emperor. The end.
Having a heavy reaction to Ep. 24 and my least favorite drama character. Stop already with the Xiao Wen Jing (baby…
He did not have to poison his classmate/friend with a snake. He did not have to hack his look alike in the head. He did not have to hack up the stalker. He did not have to stab his own brother twice. These are choices he made.
The look on his face when he stabbed his brother was the same as his past killings/axing - he enjoyed it. It was the worst act of violence for me - even beyond the ML sister death. Who the f stabs their family for a pact with the devil?
The only take away from this characters' arch is sometimes, when there is enough power, money, blood line, and lack of an alternative, evil people find their place - emperor. There is nothing heroic about his actions, in any scene he is in. He is nothing more than a psycho sicko. Why can't people just accept this at face value?
If the end of this drama places this axe murderer as the emperor then it will not be the first time in history that an emperor/king/monarch/ruler/president is evil to the core.
Having a heavy reaction to Ep. 24 and my least favorite drama character. Stop already with the Xiao Wen Jing (baby emperor) redemption arch nonsense!! The writer is 100% not giving him a redemption arch. There is nothing redeemable about him. Snake, axe, or knife - it does not matter. Evil is as evil does.
Confused. We were informed one episode a day which is ep. 23. Who and how was ep.24 released? How are people able to post something they have no access too? Was it legally shown somewhere today? And, yes, now that I know, I agree that comments about ep. 24 should wait until tomorrow.
