Episode 23. Holy crap, when the FL walks out of the palace, the look on her face! π± If I was the ML not only would I want separate rooms but maybe separate houses too. In different cities! Damn the killing vibe she is giving! And then that little smile! Woah. π FL going full on villain mode. I love it! π¦ΉββοΈ I wonder who is going to kill who? ML vs FL. Or like I've said before, mutually assured destruction? I think the FL is getting a little too cocky though. Her father is full blown evil. ooh that is perfect, evil concubine's evil daughter forced to marry evil abusive duke? I like this storyline!!!! Poor manipulated dumb evil concubine's evil daughter ππ Wait, she's throwing the horse out in the middle of the city in the middle of the night? πDoes she want it to die? Damn she is really dumb as a stump isn't she? π€ͺHopefully a good Samaritan saves it and the horsey doesn't end up as someone's dinner. You just can't fix stupid can you?π
Episode 22 and more Dengs? π₯±π΄And now a Yao? Who or what the hell is a Yao?π Why am I getting this sinking feeling that this series is just going to fizzle out with no good ending or resolution to the story. I know, I know. Trust the process right? π And now there is a Qi? They are just throwing names/characters out there to see what sticks right? π€£The family that schemes together stays together? Lingzhi in on the action, pushing the little boy into the water so the ML and FL can go visit Duke Qi! π€£ She is so adorable in a mini-me evil villain way!!!ππ eww Duke Qi is creepy AF. π€’ But damn, this is a perfect way to get a divorce for her! π€£π€£π€£ I'm trying to figure out what's the big deal about going to see the noble consort anyhow. I mean, she lent the FL her doctor to heal her mother's legs so thanks? But why all this about saving her and going to see her? I'm so confused.π
Art, in all its manifestations, has always been a projection of our lives. It is a highly precise tool and a powerful…
This is so good and insightful! I've read through a few times and find myself shaking my head Yes! ππ― My favorite line is the last one. Words to live by: What would become of us without Art! π₯°
Episode 21. Isn't the FL being a bit, um, obvious? Following the old dude like that. Standing in front of a lit window/door where everyone can see her? The story is really getting hijacked. I don't care about the ML's evil aunt. I don't care about the Dengs. We have the evil eunuch's fortune that everyone is trying to find for some reason. Greed? Anyhow, evil eunuch's evil adopted son who may or may not be castrated. Wait, I don't really understand that storyline either! π€£ Though I have to admit that is a storyline I wasn't expecting! π€£ jeez, tempting a chaste widow is punishable by skinning and dismembering? WTF was wrong with men back in ancient times!π± No offense to Mrs Deng but damn this scene has gone on long enough. Half this episode is just long monologues about the Dengs. Can we please get back to the story?π₯± FL and ML tag teaming the nasty evil on Deng dude. Cool. Now, hopefully he died in that fire π€
Episode 20. Is it just me or is FL really showing evil stepmother vibes to that poor little girl? π She just wants a mommy! You couldn't have said something nice? π’ Ok, the running to watch Chai Jing leave very long scene was, admit it, just stupid. Grab a horse, get one of those slow moving carts but running miles through town, outside of town, somehow to the ocean? Or maybe a big lake? And then fireworks. And the ML magically finding her too.π€ Obviously evil concubine has never tried to clean up a liquid mess from the floor before. π€£Sorry, is this scene supposed to be sad? π€£ And now the evil father that doesn't care about anyone or anything is crying crocodile tears too? And evil concubine's evil daughter. Today's stories seem different. Were they written by someone else? Random thought. I wish the wigs for all the males were better. They are all so bad it's distracting. πWhat should be a deeply emotional/disturbing scene with evil father turned into 'damn that wig is awful' π€£ FL to ML, if it was easy why would I need you? π€£ Oh great, she got away from the evil concubine and now she has an evil aunt-in-law? FFS. Not every female is an evil villain. FFS. Just kill her already and move on to the story please. We only have 10 episodes left. Evil in laws isn't a storyline we should be following right now. We should be getting to the revenge please! Or maybe starting the romance would be nice. The genre is historical, romance according to MDL. Why are they hiding the fact that evil father killed her mother?
If it was me. I would become like a mouse and escape. Yah, this is one of those scripts that it is overwhelming…
I liked The Glory. The glory is a great rebirth/revenge/justice novel. I enjoyed it a lot! I like the FL who schemes and since she already know what is going to happen fixes things in advance rather than passively waiting for all the bad shit to happen again. Kill Me Love Me is different. Well both are different from their dramas but Kill Me Love is really different. I personally didn't like the novel as well as the first 3 episodes of the drama. After the first 3 episodes the drama went to shitπand in the novel the FL was just a passive weak nobody. Her character was irritating more than anything! But hey, it had a happy ending eventually!

I am reading Deng Hua Xiao right now and I have to tell you she is one of my favorite FLs ever. But I see no way they can ever adapt this to a drama. Unless it's 'adapted' like The Glory, Si Jin, Kill Me Love Me, etc. etc. Where some of the character names are the same and some of the places may be the same but the drama has nothing to do with the novel and vice versa!
This is another drama that is foreshadowing 'bad ending' for both leads. It's so far away from the novel that…
Overwhelming is a good description! But....it is so good! We have to hope for justice in the end. Happy ending or no, too early to tell. But it feels like nope!
I'm also starting to sense a sad ending. I saw a scene (most likely from the drama) where our FL enters the imperial…
In the novel he was a prince. And it had a happy ending. But this entire drama was not in the novel so who knows where we are going with this!π€·ββοΈ
FL going full on villain mode. I love it! π¦ΉββοΈ

I think the FL is getting a little too cocky though. Her father is full blown evil.

Let's hope that's the only filler they give us for the rest of the episodes? π€
