Who is Wu Shan again? that sickly boy who was in love with Dou Zhao? Wait, that's De Zhen... or is that his second…
Song Mo is called Yan Tang by his family and those who are close to him. Dou Zhao will also call him that later.
When people call him Song Mo, it shows they are not close.
However in the novel, Song Mo has a nickname, Tianci (while Song Han = Tian'en). His family and Gu Yu call him Tianci, instead of Yan Tang.
From what I caught from the novel, Shou Gu is Dou Zhao's nickname which she got since she was a kid. So it's not courtesy name. Only few people know about this nickname. Song Mo found out about this when he investigated her. That's why he was annoyed when Ji Yong calls her Shou Gu, bcos it shows intimacy and closeness. I remember Ji Yong was warned not to call her Shou Gu since she is already married.
Is Yaoke's boss Alina Zhang the same who act as step mom? Wahh, I just know this interesting fact 😄. I will…
Yes, she acts as the evil step mom. Well she never expected this drama would be a hit. She just said whatever 🤣 let's hope the reunion will come true some day.
Ep 16-17 trailersSo who is the one under the red vail ? I believe the two sisters switched places
Indeed! It was Dou Ming who replaced Dou Zhao 😆 In the novel, it was Wang Yingxue who wanted to marry her daughter with Wei Tingyu. so she planned to swap the sisters. Dou Zhao knew about it all along and played with it. Acting like the victim 🤣 it is also why Song Mo bravely proposes to her.
I have a feeling that Song Mo's little brother is the man with the tattoo in the first episode
Song Mo killed his father and brother. He even cut his brother's arms before killing him. This was why his reputation was horrible in the first lifetime, being called demon, unfilial, etc.
Who is Wu Shan again? that sickly boy who was in love with Dou Zhao? Wait, that's De Zhen... or is that his second…
Indeed. Bcos they usually won't bother with courtesy names in drama. However this drama/novel followed suit where men usually get their second names. It is confusing yet intriguing to learn about it.
Why'd ML want to kill FL and her contingent in ep 5?
Adding more info: The situation at that time was crucial. The whole Jiang family might get executed. The baby boy must be saved and no one shall know about his existence. Thanks to Dou Zhao, Jiang family is demoted to commoners, the male get exiled, while the women return to their ancestral home. They avoided the whole family extermination. But the baby boy, will not be registered under Jiang family tree.
I was wondering where Princess Shude came from, as I skipped the early parts of the novel... so she's a drama…
Indeed. I was hoping to see Princess Ningde bcos she is the biggest support. Even Song Yichun can't mess around. But this Princess Shude is interesting as well. She is a bit mischievous, blunt, and virtuous.
Yaoke's boss, Alina Zhang, said if the drama reaches 27000 heat index, they will have Meng Ziyi and Li Yunrui reunite in a new drama. She didn't expect the drama would reach 27000 in just two days. When it was mentioned, she was flustered and said "Well... the script is being prepared." 🤣
In the drama you will notice the men have 2 names: birth name and courtesy name. Courtesy name is an additional name bestowed upon individuals at adulthood, complementing their given name. It is a marker of adulthood and were historically given to men at the age of 20, and sometimes to women upon marriage.
Song Mo, courtesy name: Yan Tang. Ji Yong, courtesy name: Ji Jianming. Wu Shan, courtesy name: De Zhen. Wei Tingyu, courtesy name: Pei Jin. And so on.
When a man gets his courtesy name, people will call him with it, not his birth name, bcos it will be considered rude. However, there are rare case, for example Dou Zhao still calls Ji Yong by his name, and he doesn't mind.
let's say 2 officials and 2 optionals.the hot MLthe gentle SLand we can exclude the cheating ex husband and hyper…
Ji Yong is deeply in love with Dou Zhao. It's just that no one knows about it, not even Dou Zhao. Even in the novel, he didn't realize he loves her until his grandpa asked him. The reason why he is so impulsive and rude is bcos he likes to argue with her and wants her attention. When she married Song Mo, Ji Yong was so upset. That is why he and Song Mo are always at odd.
Dong Qi made his appearance! He is jealous of Song Mo and they aren't friends, but not enemies either.
Princess Shude, I guess a replacement of Princess Ningde. Princess Ningde is related to Song family by marriage. She and the whole Lu family support Song Mo and despise Song Yichun 👍🏻But I find it annoying they had to make a loveline between Princess Shude with Dou Shishu 😑 if this will lead to good, then be it.
Why everyone has like two names? It's so confusing.

WU SHAAAAAANNNN!!! MY BAOBEI!!!! My fave boy from Dou Zhao's harem!!!! He is a man as gentle as jade, with heart as vast as the ocean, he comes like spring season, pure, untainted. So pleased he got more exposure in the drama. This boy will forever be in my soft spot ❤
Finally, the swapping marriage (arranged by Dou Zhao) is happening! Of course, Ji Yong has to be Ji Yong, running around hurting people, almost ruining her plan. The reason why they always argue 🙄
Based on the novel. It will be shocking.SPOILERS!!!!!SPOILERS!!!!!SPOILERS!!!!!The previous Duke Ying forced Song…
Tbh Song family is really evil and the lowest dirt! Every one of them except Song Mo is useless and can only bark. That's why Song Mo is really close to Dou family. He regards Dou Shiying as his own father. Song Mo also got close with the male cousins as they often help e/o, even Dou Shishu is like his own uncle. He often gives advices to Song Mo and asks him to be careful regarding royal family matters.
