Listen, this drama was a 10/10 up until episode 34 when it took a swift nose dive for me. I felt that both leads became sidelined in their story, especially the female lead in the last episode.
She was so involved in the previous war efforts that watching her sit and pray on the sidelines felt very out of character for her. I get it, the woman had just given birth but she’s so crafty, I thought for sure she’d have some brilliant way of turning the tide like last time.
Shiyuan’s effort was appreciated but I felt we could have seen them work together to defeat the enemy and him accept her as a friend/sister after all the previous relationship drama.
I disliked the ending for Lady Yuluo, totally unfulfilling and lacking for her. Qiao Fan’s epiphany took too long. Wei Liang’s ending felt cruel and unnecessary.
I dunno, overall I’m not satisfied with the ending. It was cute to see Wei Shao become a total girl dad though, that was fun. Still, I’ll rate the rest of the show a 9/10! It is probably one of the best enemies to lovers cdramas I’ve seen.
If it follows last week’s episode pattern, Monday 26th May - episodes 28 and 29 Tuesday 27th May - episodes 30 and 31 Wednesday 28th May - episode 32 Thursday 29th May - episode 33 Friday 30th May - episodes 34 and 35 Saturday 31st May - episode 36
Right? (I’m trying to be good and not binge until it’s over)
Can someone explain to me the Boya story? Why is she having him deliver stuff to Boya? Is her cousin really there?
Her cousin eloped with Bi Zhi (a servant) and FL told them to go to Boya to conquer it for the Qiao family after seeing Bi Zhi’s unnatural strength. However, the faction that killed the Wei people was in Boya, recruiting for their army and Bi Zhi stood up to them, earning the Boya people’s trust but they needed back up. FL’s cousin sent for help from her Qiao family but they refused because they were afraid ML would think they were trying to occupy Boya. So FL said to ML that she missed her cousin and wanted to send some things for her as she felt bad that the cousin no longer lived in luxury since eloping. While that was partly true, FL was also using ML to send people to escort the goods to make it look like there was a Wei occupation in Boya and make the other faction back off.
Why did I start this when I know it’s still airing?! The temptation was too high and now I’m already at episode 9 ;-;
I love watching her play him like a fiddle! When the brain and the brawn finally start working together, they’ll truly be an unstoppable power couple - can’t wait to see it!
I am late but I love it! I remember watching the first few episodes when it was airing but found it too slow then. It is one of those shows you just have to buckle in and stick with and it grows on you and before you know it, you’re fully invested. Really enjoyed Uncle Gu outmaneuvering Ming Lan for once! Just getting to their married life and I am so looking forward to it.
Watched up to episode 28 and then lost all patience. Maybe one day I’ll finish it but not feeling it anymore. The visuals of both actors are great though.
