Resistance is futile. 😁

Me, too. Especially when they were all rooting and chanting along the line of "Don't give up! You can do it! Take your time! Fighting!" when he was weighing and working the scale. 😂

ep 13, Mr. Qi/Qi Min addressed himself as GU when he talked to his assistant. Only people of imperial or high nobility can use this self-address term. It seems like he's of royal blood. He's a prince from the Sui's family/neighboring kingdom? Getting so interesting!!!

For the curious mind, 200,000 piculs is about 26,700,000 pounds. That's a lot of grain.

So enjoying it! I'm at midpoint ep 13! So good!!!

I feel the same.

I know! This character certainly is interesting! I don't know yet if he's a villain or an anti-hero. I'm trying NOT to read any spoilers on Qi Min so I can enjoy how the drama reveals more about his identity and relation to QianQian.

But we know he truly cannot be stolen. His heart is so attached to ChangYu. 🥰

ep 12, Yan Zheng had a fandom! The most hilarious thing to the whole scene was how it ended with the last customer who was a guy admiring YZ's calligraphy. Genius!! 😂

I love how she won them over. 😃

Auntie Zhao gave her porn. 😂

I love how they did her hair. It really suits her face. So adorable.

No amnesia.

I didn't think much of it other than it's her mother's remaining most precious item. But now that you raised the question, I think you might be on the right track. Because ML is of an elite/high status background, so if the story is to remain intact with social status as expected in those ancient days, FL would need to be of similar social level. Her mother was probably from some important background.

He is indeed very hot in this one. 🔥

Just binged all available 5 eps. It'll be my new daily go to drama for this month! So looking forward to new episodes. I like them two as a cp. FL is awesome and ML is very understanding as well. Even FL's little sister is incredibly cute. Not to mention, the director does an excellent job, especially with appropriate slow-mo at some scenes, and minute details like how FL corrected the position to be more lady-like the first time F/ML spoke. The scriptwriter also has some legit credit, giving high expectation to Pursuit of Jade.

Got to say, I like costume dept's creativity with Gangster Jin's earmuffs. Haven't seen these muffs before in historical cdramas.

BETTER THAN Xie Wei!?!?!? Really?! Wow... I'm still on ep 1, but this comment is upping my expectation big time now. They do look good together though.

I totally understand your hobby. I enjoy interacting and reading relevant posts on MDL on dramas that I like to watch as well. Happy posting, reading, and watching! =)

We see it as speaking facts. They view it as something else. Why else censorships are still practiced heavily there?

It's true there's no real freedom anywhere nowadays. Everyone is restricted/bound by something, whether it be financial freedom, freedom of speech, freedom of religion, freedom of sexual orientation, etc. Some just have a wider range. Let's just try to see the positives and be happy . =)
