I wonder why the princess is soo obsessed with shu yu rong like whats soo good about this guy? Like he is just…
the drama is making him such a disgusting creature. novel: handsome, gentleman (per traits of the time) from the surface, it's love at first sight for the princess; which is why she's obsessed with him. it's also the idea that she can't have him b/c he is someone else's husband. he knows how to control the princess and work around her without ever having to plead or beg. the drama gave the princess such s & m traits...it doesn't make sense at all.
Doesnt ru yao get a character development in ep 27 cause thats what i heard?
what a waste of screen time for evil characters like that. the drama is giving too much screen time to stupid characters vs the main characters' story arcs.
You feel sad for a coward who put himself first and killed his wife who he promised to protect forever?! I hope…

Life start young back then. People marry young back then and it was normal for the husbands to be 10-30 years older. The kings will get young girls every year to add to his harem even at 60 years of age. Well, there’s some cases where the dad days the daughter’ friend.
Where's the eldest Jiang family daughter? Is she married off?
The eldest daughter is by a concubine. She died at 4. The concubine was a maid of the first wife. The elderly Jiang lady (grandma) made the decision to have the maid become a concubine. Concubine fake delusion/crazy after the daughter died.
You can see her put her fist through the dirt in the first episode. I assume she climbed out and walked to the…
If you read the novel, the drama falls shorty on the origin of the details for all the characters. Due to censorship, drama can’t do supernatural theme. It’s not possessing, more like taking over a body with no soul. JL wanted to died bc of a broken heart and despair of being forgotten/abandoned by her family. XFF wanted to live and revenge her self and her family; her desire to live was strong. Bc of that, she got a second chance by living in JL. XXF and SH are about the same age. The novel put SH at 24. JL is 16 at the time of her death.
I was right about Consort Li wanting to take Jiang Li with her. Also, when the emperor had his head on the consort's…
It’s weird the drama change this. Consort li is a’pin’ level consort inthe novel but is a favorite of the king. She’s not supposed to have a complicated background. Since she can’t get pregnant, the Ji family wanted to send a cousin in to the palace. This is one of the reason why consort li resorted to side with Prince Cheng.
Duke Su's fan must be very strong blocking a sword attack. Maybe it's made out of gold? Or metal
His fan is his choice of weapon since it’s more refine vs a sword. His fan is supposed to have metal sharp edges…instead of wood for the fan’s structure. He only uses a fan until the last battle against his enemy. He used his father’s sword later.
That Zhou Yan Bang guy surely thinks high of himself. Lmao ! Dude must think that FL likes him a lot to ask such…
per novel, ZYB is a dashing charming guy with good looks and a elite family/status. he is a golden bachelor. without a career in politics, the Zhou family has money and social status that makes him a good suitor. The Zhou family has a duke status (passed down from family, granted by the early king). Jiang Yu Er and Shen sister also secretly admires him. So yes, ZYB's arrogance and confidence is granted. the original JL was in love with him or stuck on the idea of marrying him since they were betrothed before she was sent away. so ZYB perception that JL still likes him is base on what he knows of the original JL.
XXF/JL treat him with no regard and interest, making ZYB want her even more. ZYB is hooked on her base on the fact he can't have her...which make her even more desirable. ZYB desire grew even more when XXF/JL became the female scholar winner of the imperial exams.
in the end ZYB did not get to marry the 1st or second choice lol. he got stuck with Shen sister who he doesn't even know exist (to him, a nobody) and JYE who he looks down on. No one in the courts would speak a good word for him or recommend him for a post even though he got 3rd place in the imperial exams. He gain weight/got fat and wasted his days at the brothel and being a useless loser.
they don't get the chance... Jiang Li will be plotting against them... quite effectively too
only people who is on her side unconditionally throughout the novel is: SH, her real dad, brother, the Ye family. The Jiang family is selfish where they only care for the reputation and benefits for the family name. Even though the Jiang family learn what happen to the first wife (ye) and JL's mistreatment and punishment, they just felt guilty and tried to make it up to her in money/wealth. The elder grandma Jiang always tell JL to put the family's best interest first or remind her that she is a Jiang first. Due to XXY being in JL's body, she have no familial connection to the Jiang family. She won't do harm to them due to the fact that she is alive b/c of JL. SH is more straight to the point: just kill everyone in the Jiang family, they are not your real family anyways. gotta love the man lol.
