What a beautiful post🥺

I thought and this is a bit of a stretch, that he said that even though he had regrets because he wanted to let her go (he didn't regret the revenge, but he regretted losing her). He thought if he let her go perhaps that she could lead a better life without him, with someone who didn't betray her and where abandonment didn't taint their relationship?

But the minute she ended their relationship you could tell he wasn't okay. I think 5 years later he saw they both couldn't let go and they both still loved each other - so despite maybe thinking he didn't deserve her forgiveness he still gained the courage to ask for her back.

I just find it funny because even though WL is young, he can be very reserved for his age, but she draws him out of his shell🥹. I love seeing that and them having fun together.

Agreed, I just need an EN translation of the novel now. and more episodes

The most bizarre thing was, in the first few episodes when she interjected on him getting abused by his first wife, along with CSS's mom, I thought I detected chemistry between them. And then I was like nah, don't be crazy - you are imagining things and then when I saw the wedding scene I was so surprised/happy.

You are right - ah now with all this joint analysis I'm ready to rewatch the episodes this week :D !! Plus I had no idea he was actually sentenced to go away for 6 years. Lol I somehow missed that part😅

Oh man they will have their hands full with their kids. With that genetic combination they are going to be super intelligent and athletic.

Was it a key part of the book? (from what I heard they tried to stay true to the books story as much as possible - but when its cramped into 10 less episodes than their original script its awkward.... lol)

I saw lots of chatter on Twitter about how LJT will feature in the drama and I'm curious if it was true to the book or not. Or if things were even worse in the book.

But I agree with you, it was too much for me and felt unnecessary.

Me too.... I think I will feel worse next week when it officially wraps up and we won't even continue to get BTS's😭😭😭

Oh I totally missed that there was a time sentence to his punishment! Thank you for adding that, that gives me more to think about in terms of how I think about their separation.

But if the emperor forgave him, do you know why his sentence was so long? Was it because of what the palace aides advice? or to show that he wasn't getting away with this just because he's favoured by the royal family?

I hope the same!🥺🥺

Agreed separation was too long. Why did no one summon him to the capital before????

God so much heartache could have been avoided.

I think it will be available even after, I rewatched it many times and will continue to do so. I will be upset if its gone lol

It means Tencent :) - I think penguin is their logo

Yeah same author :)!!!

I heard they met on the set of Monkey King 3! Maybe they got reacquainted when filming this drama?

I will definitely check out that drama, after I take a break to get over LLTG. Right now I'm too attached to it and need some time before I can appreciate anything else lol

That's right Luo Ji Tong is the one that used to be by the empress's side, she was brought to the palace to be the Fifth Princess reading companion

Yes I will definitely give it another shot :)!!! I think I gave up on it too soon

yes!!!

No worries :)

Lol here is a breakdown:

The Empress's children:
- The Crown Prince (married to the Crown Princess)
- The Fifth Princess (with all the advisors)

The Consort:
- The Third Prince
- The Second Princess (Married)
- The Third Princess (Married)

Palace Maid & King:
- The Fifth Prince (Married)

Lord and Lady Royung's (the emperors uncle) granddaughter is the Princess that wants to marry LBY. I always forget her name.

They also mentioned there is a few children that had died along the way.
