almost got done in. He is so kind and can't believe anyone is evil despite being framed for murder. Who is the framer? There are the cheaters, there is the fake mother and daughter and probably other suspects hiding in the shadows. It looks like it might be another Yesha conspiracy.

Honestly, Tonnam Chompoo got my full attention this episode.Their story, even with not that much screen time, is being amazingly portrayed.The actress playing Chompoo's mom is simply spectacular.The development of Chompoo's character is perfect.Tonnam's crying scene broke me completely, amazing work by the actress.

He Yan is very unhappy not chosen for elite squad. After drinking courage she shows up in Xiao Jue’s quarters demanding explanation. He tolerates this because she comes very close to revealing her real intentions, but stops just shy of any revelations. She grabs her old sword and offers to dance for him to show her technique. He does a nice dance of avoidance and she ends up slicing his table and zither in two. She wakes up to find out she slept in his tent all night while the commander made Cheng make space for him. The Yuzhou magistrate has sent an official invite to discuss his unreasonable army supply demands and have included Cheng in the invite. It is decided that He Yan will replace Cheng on this trip. She wants to prove her worth to be selected and she noted the man with missing finger that harmed her at the temple. She has deduced the he thinks Lei Hou a spy and that is why he was selected. Upon arriving she places a massive order at the inn and Xiao Jue accommodates and buys her all of it. He then let her know that she would eat it all and waste nothing. I wished they would have shown her attempting this but they skip to them being in the room. The disciple already is aware of Sun’s lecherous son and plans to use that as stepping stone to get his promotion. Xiao Jue sends his subordinate to do more recon and says he will watch He Yan personally. They both see that she has snuck out of the room and wait to see where she’s headed. They all know it’s a trap but accept that it is better to be offense than defense so they go to see how things play out.

every time Armin turns into a freakin clairvoyant, i just zone out - cause he is acting like a mad man & anyone else in TD's place would be looking at him weird, let alone distancing themselves from the nuts case. but that aint how it's written, so we get TD still sitting close, making cow-eyes at him, oh well - personally i can't stomach it & just fast forward scenes where he keeps going on & on about what's gonna be... so tedious, i wish he would get a clue & stop. **************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************well TD at least bought-out Armin's contract & he doesn't have to suffer Thiwthit the dimwit or Lilly the pimp. but i feel so so bad for the the poor struggling actor's under her, she is basically selling them - while promising them that it will bring them jobs & fame. sadly there's a bigger chance of them getting used & abused, never achieving their goals - then fulfilling their dreams. this a sad reality in this industry, no matter the country. freakin depressing - ******************************************************so found it ironic that by the end that Armin realized, what he wasn't ready to do under Lilly's "management" he was getting groomed (yes groomed, cause TD lied saying Narin made the offer, when we know the person with power holds the cards & was the one to make the offer) to do with TD. & given Narin, no one can blame him for jumping to the correct conclusion. ******cause yeah TD is very attracted to Armin, but idk i always have this feeling that he feels guilty towards Armin & he is helping him cause he feels like he owes him - for what or why idk (yet to find out). but i think that is why he doesn't "jump him" & keeps holding back, especially when Armin's full of gratitude, TD physically backs away. time will tell if i am right. but i am glad Armin found out - he needs to know that TD aint a saint, even if he is his savior. **************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************now wondering if the poisoned champagne was a gift from Narin, even though if Armin died when he was 40 & this 25 yrs before - i doubt TD would've kept Narin hanging for so long & not swapped him out with a new, fresh YOUNGER boytoy. so idk -

Fan Xian along with Lady Liu and Ruoruo has entered the palace, and being summoned by the consorts, well trick was on point by calling Lady Liu's cousin consort Aunty, while Consort Shu was quite strange, obsessed with books, and stating that her son is not all that good FX is saying him to be, he's only acting around him, now I'm really curious about second prince. When they're going to visit Lady Ning, the birth mother of First prince, it was hilarious when Fan Xian was casually discussing power struggles with Ruoruo and the Eunuch panicked was coughing to signal Fan Xian while he was like oh no one will know if you keep silent about it lol. It's even more funny when Fan Xian just casually criticises the Empress Dowager by saying that " The old lady is quite narrow minded", the Eunuch would've almost fainted there lol, he was coughing so loudly so Fan Xian would stop talking and criticising the royal family members in the palace. Lazy Nind casually told her servants to bring that large bowl of rice, even the Eunuch was staying at it with his mouth open line "who's gonna eat this much??" The Eldest Princess, Wan'er s mother, summons Fan Xian cause she finds him interesting, but summoning not only him but also Yang Xiaoyi the Director of Imperial Guards, ahhhhhhhhhhhh I wanted to see him again, yayyy! He had to kneel outside the palace of Empress Dowager, and Eunuch Hong Sixiang came out, isn't he one of the 4 Great Masters. The Eldest Princess is the one who planned the assassination twice, in Danzhou then in the Niulan (or something )street. She was testing Fan Xian (she's a psycho) by revealing to him that she's behind his friend's death. And that scene was so cool when Fan Xian kept his cool, and just massaged her neck for a moment then stood in front of her and said you already have backup behind you, and I'd already be a dead man if I took action against you, and just then he turned around and imitated the move of shooting an arrow, even Yang Xiaoyi's eyes widened by this move Fan Xian pulled, cause it's hard to detect a highly skilled martial artist. FX: DIRECTOR YAN, NICE TO SEE YOU AGAIN. YXY: WE'LL MEET AGAIN. Some Master Zhuang Mo Han has entered the city. Fan Xian and Lin Ruofu agree on one thing that Eldest Princess is Crazy. This officer seems too excited to me, anyways FX has been transferred to the Court of State Ceremonials as Deputy Receptionist, FX is adorable 🤣.

This case does not seem to be moving the plot forward. I'm not enjoying the female lead teaming up more with the Zhuge guy than our handsome Detective. It seems so obvious the disciple with the gloves is in some relationship with the wife of the victim unless we are totally being gaslighted and it's the daughter and her mom that are the killers.

DL wants to get revenge on YS by making JJ fall in love with him bc he knows that she’s special to YS bc of the whole fiasco at the BUI party. And then they become a couple. Then to get back at her, YS gets jealous and gets with the executive that’s always hanging around him. Then, JJ realizes what DL is doing is all a plot OR DL breaks up with her, and she cries, which leads her to go to the hospital (DL doesn’t care that much, maybe her bestie bringing her there), and her bestie pleads YS to help her and he rushes into the hospital and apologizes and then he tells her the truth and confession. In between all that, DL actually develops feelings maybe when they’re still together or smth after their breakup. I’m sure the secretary following DL factors in here somewhere probs w/ revenge to break DL and JJ up. The male leads confront in front of the hospital and duke it out or huge argument ensues and then JJ has to make a choice, but she chooses YS bc rare childhood friend w

idk why Armin is shocked he is going down the same path, when he is choosing the same things. the fact he decided to not break the contract with Venues, means what when his manager is a mega-b*tch that is opening telling him, that she has NO intentions of helping him - thus he will never gets jobs & will never become an actor, let alone famous with a leading role. & cause of the yr of getting blacklisted, he chose to stay. ******************************************************************************why not spend this time, asking for advise, consulting a lawyer, making a plan - getting dirt on the manager or the company to use it to blackmail them or her, to let him go or let him work. something, anything then being passive & apologizing. then giving up & drinking into a stupor... but we talking Armin after all, genius he is not - great looks but that's about it. know i am being mean but come on u have so much knowledge about the future instead of using that to help u get a better life u basically just going with the flow & choosing the same path. ******************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************still waiting to see why TD is fascinated with Armin, it can' be just cause he's good looking cause am sure given TD's position he has his pick. & he already has a celebrity that is his sugar baby (well maybe he not in "service" since TD running after Armin 24/7 idk) but it can't be just the looks. so waiting. & as he is very attracted to Armin why didn't he kiss him in the room the 1st time? why act like he passed-out?!? didn't get it - just to tease the audience?

Origami is not He Yan’s speciality.😂 They do at least slightly resemble a flower in ‘freeform’ style. Here again their lives mirror. Both were sent to same school, to the military quite young and little time at home with their families. She seems to be far more comfortable in social settings than Xiao Jue, but they both are scarred from betrayal and loss of family. His family loved him but their eldest son was favored outside of immediate family. He Yan was never the favorite in hers. She was the stand in for them to save face, and then discarded so this secret would never surface. And the most disgusting part is how vile and ungrateful the brother is about the whole thing. The father is contemptible, but the son may be even worse. The next competition was for flags. He Yan had a map drawn of the area and started with hardest flag. After two teams divided them she dueled for all flags to winner. This time her weapon of choice was a whip. She noted her opponent had unique moves she wasn’t familiar with, but it did not stop her from wrapping him up and securing him to tree til he conceded his flags. She even proudly presented a basket of her flags to Xiao Jue fully expecting she had invite to elite league all lined up. The officers are playing chess and each voting for a side. Xiao Jue has it figured out from the get go, but chooses Lei Hou as the winner. Whether this was to protect her gender status from others or because he thought Lei Hou truly better, I am not really sure yet. This may even be one he considers a spy to keep closer eye on him. I do, however, think it was rather cowardly to have his subordinate dole out the bad news while he doled out the candy. His attempt to sweeten the moment is probably going to go over like a lead balloon. The wine has hit the table and I’m sure she is going to drink her sorrows away now. The disciple and fake general are plotting. Supplies have been deliberately withheld and the disciple wants to throw it all at Xiao Jue like he is bullying the official for supplies. The fake general is countering to hurt someone and the disciple is countering to get the official’s job. These two schemers deserve each other. I hope they share a similar bad fate. I can’t feel sorry for the disciple being bullied when he now has become the bullyer at a much greater level than a single person. I still want to know who thought it was a good scheme to kill 30k troops? The machinations in this drama have been for spite and revenge and suppression of the truth. I am hoping the two swords get these miscreants handled to the degree they deserve.

Xiao Jue lines up the recruits and divides them into squads to do a land nav exercise. He makes He Yan captain to test her further. The flatbread is already getting old and two of the bandits decide they are going to go off grid and forage for better food options. One returns saying bandit is being bitten by wolves. He Yan sends him to find help. She takes her horse and rescues the big guy. Unfortunately this ends her up in an animal pit trap and she can’t get out. Meanwhile the one that left with bandit has returned to camp and is telling lavish lies about how they ran off. His story came to a screeching halt when the rest of the squad make it back to camp and accuse the messenger of running off their horses and leaving them to die. As their punishment is being debated, Xiao Jue goes to find her. She is reminiscing about a festival hugging a dead wolf to keep warm. She is rescued and tries to get wolf taken along. Xiao Jue agrees if she wants to give up her place in the horse for the wolf.😂Here she deserves a taste of her own medicine because she is getting rather cocky considering her circumstances. She returns back and he asks Dr Cheng to check her wounds. Now ironically he is an ob/gyn so this is really funny. There were a couple interesting things. He knows she is female and she slipped up with a quip about how he hadn’t changed much. Now she will have to come up with a fiancée.😂 The liar is executed. I don’t find this too harsh since he tried to kill a squad of his own men. This is unacceptable in military service. The others are pretty harsh. The bandit got beaten after a serious encounter with wolves. I feel he was punished just getting back on foot from that. The others were ordered to return yet were beaten for following her orders and leaving her behind. He is listening to Cheng comment on how harsh and asking He Yan if she agreed. He was surprised that she acknowledged they were harsh but necessary for military discipline. I don’t think he expected such a commander point of view. She said she wanted to be general and Xiao Jue notes this. He still has not put it together but wants to find out more about here. He knows she isn’t a boy, but that there is significantly more to her story than they know. The end scene has the disciple chatting with father about his day with chancellor. His father recommends he sticks like glue to him. He leaves disciple to deal with fake general. This one actually wanted a candle in temple to suppress his sister’s spirit. Like he has the power to do such a thing.😝 He is a miserable excuse for a human being. Can’t wait til his military prowess is put to test and he has none to speak of. Shortsighted father didn’t think about that. Hopefully he has some weapons training to cover the lie, but even if skilled it won’t cover what years of actual command in the field teaches you. He leaves a gift for the father and leaves after snubbing disciple. It is revealed that he was adopted and considered illegitimate which explains his attitude and the fire scene. A group was trying to deliberately burn him. He should stick with the chancellor. It’s got to be better than staying at home with these snobby people. The deal with the wolves is so fake, but her dreaming of the festival while holding a dead wolf as partner is rather funny. I find myself well entertained in spite of the obvious flaws of the circumstances. When she finds out he is the anonymous one that voted for her 😂🤣 and when she receives the ointment from him she remembers from her youth in school. He is making the connections, but what will he do when he figures it out? And they are plotting to have fake general show up to challenge him. Wonder how that is going to go? He would not even recognize the twin sword and reveal himself as imposter. Her family has put her in a no win scenario. She was first imposter at her family’s demand. How does her mother fit into this? Why did she desert her daughter?

Ofcourse it was quite shocking for Fan Xian to discover the Emperor in his mother's mansion, and even locking it down. And now the Crown Prince who was captured instead of Fan Xian intends to ally with Lin Ruofu, but LR doesn't trust him. The Crown Prince is trying to persuade Fan Xian that he'll support him together with Prime Minister Lin Ruofu, while obviously his intentions are clear, just as they were all discussing suddenly the clinking of the swords was heard and when LR's person went out to look it was a bloodbath, all the men were brutally murdered by someone, they refused to let the crown prince out cause his guards weren't the ones who came, it could be anyone, Now in the room of Four people only Fan Xian knows martial arts. Ah the only one Xie Bi'an, second prince's aid, I like Second prince so much more, just like the Director of Imperial Guards. He's here for Fan Xian so that his BroTher won't be able to persuade Fan Xian, and telling him that his brother is always a persuasive talker. It was really sad that all those people were brutally murdered by Xie Bi'an, their families outside the capital and they can't even be buried, cause it might bring harm to LR. Fan Xian and Wan'er had a heart to heart talk. While I do feel sad when I see Wuzhu. And now Fan Xian is summoned in Imperial Harem, his step mum (well I like them now, they look like family now) and RuoRuo will go with him, it'll be so interesting, cause he's heading there to remember the routes so he can break in later.
