Skksksksn changbai you are so annoying I'm…

Skksksksn changbai you are so annoying I'm screaming, talking in quote and poems. So unserious aksjsks. OMG GET HIM CHANGBAI! YOU ARE THE BEST TELL IT TO HIM! "You just had to beat around the bush, covering your rear". Exactly! Communication everyone. EVEN HER MAIDS CAN SEE THAT TING YE TRIED TO MEND THE FENCES WHY MINGLAN WHY????. I'm scared that vicious mdm qin was so crazy for her son to get the marquis title. Well at least they talked I guess. Ming lan didn't want his feelings for her? I just... I can't understand. Now... Ting Ye had said it all. All depends on Minglan whether to keep going on like usual or take the plunge and be in love with him. How there wasn't anyone that willing to give her minglan advice about love?????? Damn qi heng you disappoint me so much. Fvck off. Ouu changbai I almost didn't recognise you with that moustache. Handsome.

A Lover's Quarrel

Spoilers Ahead

1)GTY 's efforts to avoid morning court do not go unnoticed. Although hunting, Eldest Brother Sheng tracks him down. His goal is not to scold him. The focus of the conversation is GTY complaining about the his wife for not being annoyed or angry about him accepting a new concubine, and not understanding his anger. Eldest brother asks him why he is not just honest with her, but GTY deflects this. GTY essentially admits that it is difficult to see true affection, however he can't tell her because she will just do whatever he wants, thus destroying the meaning. Eldest brother points out that he made her marry you, and now you are complaining.

2)Mi'er spends time with her good friend Lady Zhang of the ducal house of Ying (her father is a duke) and learns she is pregnant. She expresses her frustration with her husbands concubine Little Zhou, the younger sister of her husband's first wife who died (she was mistaken for the current empress/this is before the current emperor was crowned). She explains that she is 'very extreme' but the conversation shifts back to the child

.3)GTY returns to visit his wife that evening who is planning to make baby clothes for her friends. He brought food over (yay!) and she seems to be 'politely' resistant to this, making excuses (maybe she doesn't want to talk?) and they basically wind up spending the night together

.4)The scene later transitions to a jiju (polo)tournament. Ming Lan plays and wins a pair of baby shoes for her Lady Zhang (pregnant lady). Lady Qin casts a couple of nets to see if anyone will bite i.e. maybe spread some gossip but fails as everyone has nothing but good things to say. Lady Qin later laments that her daughter in law and stepson are gaining so many friends. She believes things will be more difficult. She believes that because they are working together (a power couple) they are a tough enemy, but she believes they can divide them.

5)We transition to the emperor and his wife. Prince Huan visits to report that the Marquis organized a match. His uncle--the husband of Lady Zhang (pregnant lady) appears to be getting along with his wife better, which is important news for the empress (he is her brother). This is important because the emperor arrange this marriage--she is married to Shen Cong Xing (a general in the military as well).

6)We transition to GTY walking around his property with his wife. They are having a heart to heart. They are discussing Shen Cong's house, which although isn't harmonious, and although he has made mistakes, their undying loyalty to the emperor basically counterbalances this. In addition, the fact that Lady Zou paid with her life to protect the royal family--and her own--is the height of loyalty. He directly asks her if anything bothers her, and she admits not being able to remember her mother's face. He then asks her what if he becomes muddled like Shen Cong--and she tells him she would never kill herself, she would keep on living, but does he want her to live in fear of that happening,(basically she has conceded defeat before the battle is fought). He then asks her if she had another choice would she marry Yuan Ruou which makes her more angry. He wants to know if she hates him--she runs away and refuses to confront the issues he is trying to discuss. He finally says I just want you to love me. (They are basically fighting again)

7)Lady Qin now knows they are fighting and GTY is sleeping in seperate rooms. Elsewhere, GTY becomes angry when he learns that Mi'er has seen a doctor. He at first wants to see her then decides not to and have the doctor report to him. In the next scene we see Ming Lan is handling the marriage of a close servant, who does not want to go, but Mi'er wants her to have a family and be happy (this is distinctively different from western servant culture, where the two really do not mingle). Back in his room, GTY tries to pressure Shitou to get info about Mi'er from Xiao tao since he knows they are basically dating but Shitous says she would never tell him

8)We learn from a meeting that GTY has with the prince minister that Prince Huan basically deliberately left him and General shen (they are young) behind and took the older generals because 1)they are elders and from the old school and 2)once the ask is proven too difficult he can request GTY and general shen without offending the older lords

9)The episode ends with the emperor wishing to have his birth parents conferred as emperor--this is both unheard of and incredibly disruptive to tradition because as the empress will say 'what son has two fathers' (for example, even if you are concubine born your real mother is the legitimate wife....) We have no issues....
