These 2 new episodes were so heavy..I hope XH comes through for Jiang Li, although she is very capable and smart, some roadblocks just need influence and authority to surpass, and XH can help her with that. Although I think he has his own plans in the works.
On a lighter note, I’ll say it again, I very much appreciate that the writers didn’t make Jiang Li a shy, simpering woman. Girlie knows what she wants and who she likes, even if she hasn’t clearly admitted it to him yet.
In the shirtless water fall scene, XH told her to look down, cos he was undressed..and girlie really said, ‘not a chance’! She looked down for quarter of a millisecond, then looked back up and kept staring at him till she met his eyes, he had no choice but to wear his shirt in front of her 🥰🤣🤣. They are too cute! Now she has his undergarments and his torn handkerchief with his blood on it in her possession..lucky girl.
The piggy back scene was also so cute, sure it was in a stinky mine but a win is a win nonetheless.
The drama is getting heavier and more interesting, with even less comedic elements but I hope we have more time with our favourite couple in the next episodes! Can’t wait for the previews!
I can’t decide which scene is more sizzling..the “rain scene” or “flower scene”. Even the “wear my undergarments scene”..😩😩. It’s been a while since we had a cdrama couple with this sort of natural and sizzling onscreen chemistry.
After watching episode 19, I think Jiang Li may reclaim her Identity as Xue fang fei. Initially, I thought she would remain forever as Jiang Li, especially after the conversation she had with Duke Su at the beginning of episode 18.
However, since her family’s attempted massacre is connected to the illegal mining of the imperial gold mine case, I’m guessing the Li family and princess wanning tried to recruit her dad but he wasn’t corrupt, so they ruined her family via Shen yu rong. If that’s the case, using Jiang Li’s identity to unveil the truth with Duke Su can earn her a big merit for the country and a possible pardon for identity theft. I’m curious to see how the drama ties all this together.
How can it possibly be getting better?Xiao He g is one fine man. It did my eyes deceive me? Did he give her one…
Yes! 😭 she didn’t want to wear the undergarment from the guard they knocked out because it was too smelly, so he stripped in front of her and gave her his own to wear. The way she kept her eyes peeled and kept staring at him undress with clenched fingers, I just know she took a big whiff of his smell after…what is this drama doing to meeee😭😩😩
I'm in a real love-hate relationship with this drama. I mean I hate these comic parts but I'm in love with emotional…
Fusing comedy in a drama or movie with heavy elements like thriller, action or even horror is really popular in kdramas or movies, eg Vincenzo, Mr Queen, IOTNB etc, but the “dark comedy” has to be cleverly done or else it can be a bit jarring with the mood of the story.
The governor’s antics made sense because it ties in neatly with the story, a greedy, corrupt and lecherous man with an obsession for the opera got dramatically taken down after trying to cart away royal tribute, like the ML said, it’s completely believable. However, some of the jiang family antics are a tad bit unnecessary, but not enough to affect my enjoyment of the drama. I just chuckle and move on.
They are clearly attracted to each other, however there is no declaration of feelings yet, not to mention she was drunk, so it’s understandable that she is a bit uninhibited. I would say the most logical thing she is doing right now is getting him firmly into her corner. She need allies badly, against the jiang family and concubine Li, not to mention she still has to save her father (from previews of upcoming episodes). Realistically, she needs to use the male lead’s authority to aid her schemes. The main reason why her scheme against the corrupt governor worked is because the male lead pulled ranks to help her. So I think it’s smart for her to use him too cos she really does need the aid. Also this is a 40 episode drama adaptation so they have to conclude everything satisfactorily within the episode limit, so it’s understandable if things develop a bit faster than the novel.
Yunhe View on Jun 8#TheDouble rises to No 1 with 87M views and 31% market share#JoyOfLife2 dropped to No 2 with…
Well deserved for The Double, although seeing FSMM trending downwards is a bit sad ngl. I anticipated that drama for months only to be greeted with a shoddy plot and zero chemistry. And it had such a big budget too.
Ye family has 3 sons and a daughter - Jiang li’s mum. The first son and his wife are dead - the third uncle…
Yes, he was crying about jiang li’s mum earlier in the episode when he was drunk, but later in the episode, when he was preparing his wealth to give to the corrupt governor, he mentioned that “his brother and wife suddenly died”. Around ‘34.57’ mark in episode 17.
one thing which bothers me is that has NO ONE in the town seen MR SHEN'S wife ...okay even if shen and his family…
The female lead and her family lived in a town called Huaixang, not the capital, so it makes sense no one in the capital knows her. I guess if she goes back to her town, some people may recognise her, as we see in episode 18 previews.
I am cracking my head here. Get to know that Ye Family has 2 sons and a daughter. Ye Zhen Zhen is Jiang Li's mother,…
Ye family has 3 sons and a daughter - Jiang li’s mum. The first son and his wife are dead - the third uncle mentioned it in episode 17 but we don’t know how or why they died. Maybe Ye Shi jie is the son of the first uncle.
One of the main reasons why he may be acting that way is that He might be frustrated with himself. Duke Su probably…
He is definitely more warm to her, he literally pulled ranks to help her solve the Ye family case. However, I like it better that he still retains his coolness a bit, so it’s not too much of a 180 change. I don’t like MLs that become simps after falling in love. Plus he has to remain focused because he has his parent’s case to solve.

Jiang li: Better. Annoying (..pinches him).
This couple will give me diabetes from all their sweetness!! 😭😊
