I am aware of this and indeed it is very serious and I hope this will be addressed again in the future as she needs to understand her mistake. However, she did it for a specific purpose: to replace the missing seal. She didn't do it to order troops something the Emperor doesn't want. Unlike 3rd Princess. That's just what I was saying. That downplaying the vice and cruelty of the 3rd Princess' actions over CSS's dangerous but honest stupidity wasn't fair.
The size of the mistakes committed by CSS every single day is growing in size. She did forgery this time that…
Of course CSS's actions are dangerous, with potentially dramatic consequences, and she needs to mature. However, I think it's wrong to compare what she did with the 3rd princess. The 3rd Princess was complicit in making counterfeit money (which can ruin a country's economy) for her personal convenience and even planned to have a clan executed if she got caught. CSS made a fake seal to replace the missing one. But it served exactly the same purpose as initially, and did not endanger anyone (except herself). It's like replacing one royal coat with another. If it has the same function and is still in the right hands, that's good. Of course she should never have done this but the 3rd Princess committed the betrayal out of a desire for money and to entrap a rival family while CSS protected her loved ones and simply helped replace a stolen item.
No, I just think the 5th prince teased her (but probably nothing awful) and the 5th princess turns this into something indecent. I have the impression the 5th prince is with LBY when this one punishes someone so maybe he knows things about CSS being almost killed by 5th princess.
I just saw episodes 31 and 32 and loved the intensity of the 32nd episode. I believe this is the first time the audience understands LBY is not on the side of the Crown Prince. It's also an intense moment because CSS unknowingly found herself on the opposite side of her fiancé and helped ruin his plan. I was very pleased to see her not accepting being blamed by an overly secretive LBY. He treats her like a precious little thing who is only going to be "his wife" and not a partner and it was important she clear things up. She wanted an ordinary, stable life with an ordinary man. LBY set his sights on her and forced her to marry him (even if she eventually agreed, the fact remains he forced her and wasn't going to withdraw their engagement). Therefore, instead of a normal family, she finds herself getting into the imperial family, court intrigues, and politics. Except that her fiancé doesn't confide in her his plans, his intentions, his true allegiances and so on. If she doesn't know anything about what he wants and does, how can she protect herself and support him? LBY still has a long way to go when it comes to be in a relationship. He only seeks to be a knight in armor without realizing that sincerity and trust are the basis of a couple. As long as he hides his dark side and his political agendas, he and CSS cannot move together in the same direction.
Thank you. Seeing all these scenes one after the other makes me more in awe of both their acting, especially WL-…
Indeed, he is so talented! We understand everything he feels and the progression of his feelings simply with his facial look. It's true that, when we combine the scenes in a row, we really feel the progression, sometimes intense, of his feelings for her. And I would say we also feel she has always been troubled by him and that, if it had not been for the execution of the bandits, the departure of Ling Buyi and the presence of Lou Yao, she might have been receptive to him during the rain scene.
You put the scenes in order. It looks great. Those are the scenes that I watch over and over again
Thanks x) Indeed, I like to make mv stories. Most of my mvs are in chronological order which helps to show the progression of relationships or the story. I like to use them as a summary of stories / relationships I have liked.
Just out of curiosity, where do you post your videos? I always love to watch other editors work. 😊
I love the mv ost. However, the 2 other songs, I wouldn't say that I don't like them but I don't love them either and, above all, they don't seem suitable for my 2nd video (from episode 15 to 27).
Just out of curiosity, where do you post your videos? I always love to watch other editors work. 😊
Oh, glad you liked my TLB's videos. I have great fun doing them x) Thanks for the compliment about the ost. It's sometimes an issue when there aren't many osts for the drama or if the melody or the lyrics aren't necessarily adapted to what I'm showing. I sometimes used ost from other dramas and I find it a shame ahah
Hi friend. I was wondering if you feel "Cocoon" by Zhou Shen would fit (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rlVsrY3QTXg…
Great minds meet! I considered Cocoon too ahah I already did a fmv on TLB with this song so I don't know if I'll be able to get out of my head TLB and the video I made to use it for LLTG. But I'm going to try because this song is beautiful and the lyrics are suitable. I didn't know Crossing This Life. I'll listen to it and see. Thansk x)

On my youtube channel. Here the link if you want : https://www.youtube.com/c/titealicia0108/featured I use old software and am far behind those who make magnificent fmv ahah. But hey, the important thing is to have fun. I make the videos primarily for me because I like to review quick summaries of the stories or relationships I like x)
It's a good song, thanks! But do you think it's suitable for either video, given the lyrics? I also tend to use music in the language of the film/series/drama so I may prefer a chinese song first.
Need advice for an fmv I'm doing for Part 1 (I'm posting this here since not everyone has finished part 1 under the other section). I can't condense everything into a 3min30 video, there are too many scenes I like and I always do fmv's in chronological order, leaving enough time for certain shots so it's hard to make choices. I think I'm goint to make 2 videos rather than one but I am annoyed by two things: 1/ What music to choose for the 2nd video. I had chosen the song from the mv but I don't know if I can use it on the 2 videos or if it will be weird. And, if so, what other music to put on. Opinions ? 2/ When to finish my 1st video. I was planning to have it finish in episode 14 when LBY hears LY's confession in front of the little girl's grave or in episode 15 when she rejects his cloack and runs to LY. This corresponds to half of part 1 and half of an arc (LBY arrives too late and loses CSS for the first time). What do you think ?
I have a couple of questions. After the most recent episode, I'm still confused on how long Consort Yue and the…
Consort Yue and the Emperor have been in love since childhood. I think it's easy to imagine they were neighbors (or their family were friends) and grew up together. Therefore, she saw with her own eyes what the Emperor went through to get to where he is now and can criticize the Aunt as she saw what she did in the Emperor's youth. The sister she is talking about is her sister-in-law, the Emperor's older sister who was pregnant when the latter was a teenager. Consort Yue knew and probably was friends with General Huo, the Emperor's sworn brother. Reason why she is so affected by the massacre of his clan and sincerely wants the happiness of ML. As for the 3rd princess, she has her own mansion outside the palace. It's just that being a princess, she can come when she wants to visit her family and attend all the family events.
However, she did it for a specific purpose: to replace the missing seal. She didn't do it to order troops something the Emperor doesn't want. Unlike 3rd Princess. That's just what I was saying.
