The emperor is not just useless, but he’s an idiot too. That’s why he couldn’t even free himself from being a puppet because he didn’t even care to control the court, too focus on surviving alone
Based on the preview up to ep 39, I’m kinda amazed that Xie Zheng actually play both sides. I have my guesses based on the clips on how the story will be unfold, but let’s see if I’ll be right.
we only got to see him for a few episodes but indeed the hate is real lol, he’s useless shit.😂
everytime he got beaten up, I’m satisfied. 😂 Still remember our zhengyu couple beat the shit out of him during the festival and changning didn’t even finish counting 😂😂
ok thanks, I thought so too when he went to the base camp, but I got confused with the timeline when Wei Xuan just got back to capital in recent eps and Grand Tutor Li was saying something like Wei Yan has become stronger because of Marquis Wu’an is back. I thought he officialy just got his army back 😅
The way Xie Zheng smiles like a proud husband watching Changyu’s grand entrance…I was giggling and kicking my feet. It’s a simple scene, but I love it. Changyu is so pretty and cute when she smiles brightly during that scene. 🫶🏻
Somehow I feel Uncle Wei Yan is not a bad person and that he had to do what he had to all those years ago, and…
I think it’s more to do of revenge since he was in love with one of the royal princess and involved with the harem, something must’ve happened to him in the past that made him greedy for power and wanted to be above the Emperor. With Xie Zheng, it’s more of controlling XZ as his heir and he has been giving him more power, but it’s not really love. If he loves XZ, he wouldn’t be the one who set the trap to kill him in the beginning. Once XZ crossed him, he couldn’t care less about him.

btw, I play lads and I can’t help but see Caleb in him whenever he appears in this drama 😆😆
