Empress dowager is too weak and frail for such sinister action.
She’s part of the plot for the di family massacre in the novel. The first emperor left a decree that allow anyone from the di family the right to claim/challenge/inherit the throne. So dowager wants to secure the throne and wipe out the di family for political and personal (she hates the di matriarch di shengten).
The empress dowager is a hidden villian. A jealous sinister woman
There’s a reason why she set up a Buddhist room - to makeup for her sins. She plays a pivotal role in the demise of the Di family. Aliso the reason why princess anning resents/distant from her
That although Xiao Hongye did not directly kill her family, he literally was the one who set up the bombs. Also,…
To be correct, it’s the original general that pitched the Gu and xian family against each other and ended up killing both. Zhou zichen was only a helper that didn’t get his reward and decided to wreak havoc in between. It doesn’t make sense the general would support the ML as governor after all that was set up
everytime i think, 'he can't do anything worse than this.' and he did. the manipulations, lies, schemes, abuse,…
It seems like the theme…and also any drama from this era do not have a happy ending…too close to wars/politics. I love the costumes/fashion from this era.
Female lead here is equally dumb & responsible to get her child killed. She couldn't even tell him that it was…
She doesn’t know until it was too late. You can’t blame her, the weight of her family’s revenge on her and the last she wants is having a child with said enemy. Her frustration and his obsession both killed their child. The ML realized fault when she tried to kilo herself and tried to do good by her. If this was a regular series, this drama would be super promising!
The actors did a great job in this series. I would love to see them in another drama. The ending had too many loose ends…to the point nothing makes sense…what a way to messed up what the earlier episodes built up to. I would like to enjoy the semi happy ending but it’s so off/impossible.
I wouldn't want to see HE. Coz the guy is a jerk!! She was tortured & her family was destroyed by him!
Now I get why it’s call circle of love (more like revenge)…the Chinese title translates to 3 locked loves (cycle) - the plot seem like she will feign amnesia (after the suicide scene) to seek revenge on him by killing him on their wedding day. FL will most likely find out ML is not the culprit for her family’s doom etc….there you go: one dead the other regret. I hope I m wrong…I do like a happy ending.
Trailer looks horrible, too more abuse from ML😱 not something expect to see in 2023 drama 😅😅
You ll have to read the novel till the end of the moon. The ML IS 10000000x more psycho (drama version made him somewhat normal/good guy). In this drama, the ML has his demised family as the catalyst for his behavior.

Well according to him, her family destroyed/ruined his family. It’s their conflict and the theme for this mini series. It doesn’t seem like it will end well. One of them will die, the other one will regret type of scenario.
This is similar to maid’s revenge in some ways but with better actors, acting and storyline. Even so, some scenes are cringy lol but at the same time you want to watch more. I don’t get the short episodes …all the production and time spent on this…
She is 5 physically.I am not sure but she might be born like susu. From a egg not the womb. God knows. Strange…
I read it in Chinese and it was easy to look up the words and meanings when I got stuck. The English translation was only up to ch.75 - the city tower scene and the post math of what happen.
Whoaa i just saw the rating dropped to 8.8?, don't do that guys... although TTEOTM didn't have the ending as expected…
I rate it as is base on how much sense the drama makes. TTJ could die but the way everything wrapped up was so rushed. A lot of characters just get didn’t get closure. Overall, this drama felt like dragging in pace and storyline just doesn’t cut it for me. That’s my reason for the rating score. I do love the chemistry the FL and ML has.
Yeah lowborn as from criminal family or poor family sold their children to slavery or to brothel…. I think no…
Back then it’s not just one’s action you need to consider but the consequences of your actions effecting the family name. The most serious punishment death to the ninth degree (usually for a dynasty/emperor to order) in which anyone related to the family gets executed.
That’s how it was back in the days. Status in an Asian society is a type of social order.
