why didn't the king kill th father of his concubine? Since he killed the queen, he should have received a capital…
The emperor did not kill the prime minister because the emperor essentially used the prime minister to kill his own wife.
From the moment the empress wanted to abduct the crown prince / heir out of the palace, she 100% *had* to die, no questions asked. Mayyyybe taking the princess, his sister, would have been negotiable to some degree. But taking the only heir? That cannot ever fly.
Since she was threatening the emperor with a sword, stabbing her in the back essentially was a patriotic act.
Perhaps one could say said concubine became the new empress as reward for the Zhuang family's many years of service, *including* their role in killing the previous empress.
hey I have a question ! is it too angsty ? and is it boring like the prisoner of beauty ?( pls pple who find that…
For me POB was "very long and nothing happens".
For this show I completely disagree. Nothing with the main leads is boring, screentime isn't really wasted on stupid stuff. The is a short weaker part in the middle, where there's some drastic twists followed by a lot of time spent on a new place for (necessary) build-up.
Both shows don't really have a strong OST going for them.
For me "tears in the rain" type breakups where the viewer has to suffer for like five episodes are the bad kind of angsty. On that scale, this show isn't angsty at all. There are a lot of villains, but the main couple does not suffer many internal or external attacks on their relationship.
On screen look at how him dubbing himself made his character look so real and like the Killer God of Susha: https://weibo.com/7891260075/5223853787186630
I wish the FL wasn't dubbed, or dubbed differently :(
I finally finished watching this...well, technically finished, because watched the second half at 2x speed. The…
If you skip past the character development at 5x speed and only judge the ending, that might not be the best position from which to judge if the ending makes sense or not.
Nah… he’s way too overacting. The truly fascinating performance in this drama is the Emperor of Susha, the…
Blatant overacting is a bit of a tradition in Asian shows. I watched like a hundred dramas with over the top characters, over-acting villains, and so on. For me, his character here is in the 1% that are actually a delight to watch. Likely also because he has some good lines written for him and his chemistry with his female counterpart is on point.
Nor can Douban ratings, those are all over the place due to other reasons, like hating on actors.
IMDb ratings are a tiny tiny bit better, but also not useful.
If you want kisses, well you already watched When Destiny Brings the Demon...

Daddy: EP27
This isn't really a show to skip around in, if that's why you are asking.
Yes. :c
Here he's only half as annoying due to (thankfully) being on screen less.
