1. massive Spoiler

   Shen (her Ex) had to choose Jiang Li as winner as his was deciding vote- remember that evil psycho Princess placed a large bet on Jiang Li to win.
   if he had chosen Jiang R as winner the Princess would be enraged for losing her bet & he’d be punished.
   The man is & always will be a cowardly scoundrel. No mercy for when his Karma eventually comes.

2. One day china will let go of unnecessary CGI scenes…. The second sister’s guqin scene was so beautiful. I know that was CGI too, but it was tasteful at that point. Then they had to go brag about their budget, ruining the beauty of the FL’s scene with that heat-miser -_- Just bc you CAN do it doesn’t mean you MUST lol.

   Also, I get the FL is acting younger than her actual age and her peers are also younger but the immaturity of the side characters is getting a bit unbelievable. I hope they can get back to the serious vibe of the first couple episodes soon. I didnt get enchanted with this drama for the comedic relief and CGI lol.

   Anyways… loved the romantic development this episode. Our ML is letting the FL cross boundaries.I cant believe the ML is like a decade younger than the FL. He looks and acts very manly for his role. It was well casted. That face grab. Whew!

3. No bull***t. No perfect results but fast thinking, fast revenge, fast overturn. Good story to watch.

   Chen Chiao En is the perfect actress for her role as Jiang Li’s stepmother. Her smile is delusional in all the roles she performed. She is a so beautiful woman. On or off screen, she is memorable.

   As for Wang Xing Yue, I’m going to watch or re-watch some of his Cdramas.
   Somewhere, someone described Duke Su character in the book and WXY is the copy cat of that character. Being gifted helps him walk miles but hard work makes him a winner. The other airing Cdramas are on stand by for now because my sleep body clock is totally unbalanced lately.

   More characters will join in and I cannot wait.

4. Thought this was a serious drama but they forgot to add “fantasy”, “cheesy fainting and cheerleading” and “slow mo galore” to the tags…

7. 2:00 Ooh that chord sounds sooo good. I don’t think I’ve ever heard minor key on a guqin before (within an actual drama; theme songs/soundtracks don’t count).

8. First of all, finally a Cdrama having underwater scenes filmed UNDERWATER and not in a wind tunnel SMH!

   Second, my only problem with the scenery they added with CGI when the two girls were performing was that the characters interacted with what was added. It would’ve been better if the cgi was put in place for us viewers to enhance our experience listening to the pieces the Jiang sisters played! Don’t get me wrong, I really really liked both scenes and I even cried to Jiang Li’s performance, she communicated her feeling and story without saying a word, it was phenomenal. Also Her sister did a really great job, she’s indeed an example of practice makes perfect. She had a goal in her mind, practice hard for it and achieved it. The only reason why she lost is because Jiang Li is the main character in the story and we can’t afford her to lose at this time of the drama. Also can drama producers stop playing/adding other instruments like the piano when the only instrument the character is using is the QIN ??

   Finally, after today’s episode, it’s going to be really hard to convince the viewers that official Shen isn’t stupid and that he actually figured out that Jiang Li is his dead wife!! I mean, she’s been leaving so many clues left and right, it’s disappointing actually cuz I really thought that her #1 goal is to avenge the real Jiang Li THEN herself !! Anyways, I’m def gonna keep watching since our Duke has officially announced his support to our Jiang Li! I’m excited to see how they’ll manage to support each other and scheme their way to revenge both of their families death ♥

9. the way that guqin scene transformed from sad, tragic, poetic to chinese dragonball z 😂😂😂 I couldn’t stop laughing watching all the cgi

10. FIRST OF ALL: we love the bite 👀🔥

    Secondly: the qin playing contest was really embarrassing to watch. I know they dramaticized it to embody the story of the music for us, but for a while I really thought they were busting out magic 🪄

11. (Episode spoilers below)

    Okay, there are SOOOO many things to unpack here. Now, if there’s anything I can appreciate, it’s when a man acts like a MAN and does MANLY things. he let her bite him??? bc he didn’t want her to bite and hurt herself??? BITE HIMMM⁉️⁉️MANLY BEHAVIOUR. He is so whipped for her and at this point, there’s no going back.

    LOOK AT THIS. MANLY. 🫦🫦🫦

    And when he gripped her face to look at him??? A MAN. 🫦🫦🫦
    THE EYE CONTACT😫😫😫😫LORD HAVE MERCY. Does Xue Fangfei know how to fight? BC I NEED DUKE SU BIBLICALLY.

    AND WHEN THE PHYSICIAN WAS ALL LIKE ‘HEY DON’T LET HER BITE U’, HE REPRIMANDED HER WITH A LOOK. A LOOK! A MAAAAAAN😍😍🫦🫦🫦🫦

    AND LOOK HOW BIG HIS HANDS ARE; THEY WRAP ALL AROUND HER FACE 😫MANLY. 🫦🫦🫦🫦🫦
    I NEEEED HIM SO BAD PLZZZZ.

    Then the morning after the poison, one of Duke Su’s guards was like, “why is he taking so long to get ready?” BC HE WANTS TO LOOK GOOD FOR HIS GIRL, DUHH😫😫😫 HE GOT TS ONNN. his fit was clean and he ate DOOWWWNNN. There was not one hair follicle out of place.

    And in ep 10, in the morning Duke Su told her “no living person is allowed to stay overnight in my residence” BUT SHE DID, AND IS THE EXCEPTION😫 AND HE FED HER BREAKFAST TOO… LIKE A MAN🫦😫. now that’s true love if I’ve ever seen it.
    (which also begs the question: did no one at her residence wonder where she was all night?😭)

    Then when she was playing the qin and Shen Yu Rong was all like ‘woe is me bc I killed my wife w my bare hands’, Duke Su looked at him like this not once, not twice, not thrice, BUT FOUR TIMES 🤣🤣

    AND THEN DUKE SU CLOWNED HIM AT THE END BY SAYING “why are you sweating?🤨” and “it’s a pity that young woman was left all alone in the mountains” basically indirectly saying ‘UR A BI*CH FOR KILLING UR WIFE’ HAHAHA. and also not to mention that Duke Su stood up himself and walked to CAST HIS OWN BALLOT FOR HER… LIKE A MANNNN🫦. (yeah Shen Yu Rong did it too, but only after our glorious King Xiao Heng did it 🙄).

    Then he said to Xue Fangfei, “I hope you get your revenge and have a bright future”. So not only does he ENDORSE her revenge but he’s actively helping her get it too??? AND WISHES HER WELL???

    WHAT🫦. A🫦. MAN🫦.

    Here are some more manly man pictures to hold us over until more episodes drop <3
    (He looks so gloriously mysterious in this one🫦)

12. Is reincarnating into someone else’s body taboo in current Chinese dramas? Why did they choose to give her a double identity instead of having her die and enter JL’s body like in the novel?
    I’m really curious to see how they’re going to keep her pretending to be JL when there are so many flaws.
    The Shen family might not have the power to confront her, but now there’s her evil stepmother, and then the grand princess who actually holds more power than the emperor. She must have seen XFF before and could easily use anything to convince people that she’s XFF and not JL. Not to mention, JL is an unmarried girl while XFF is. If people inspect her body, they’ll find out soon.
