I'm rewatching this, and I just wondered, since when is Maomao so concerned with the life of some noble? She was ready to risk her life. And then, right before she jumps in to save his life, she says, "I have to avoid getting beheaded," and then jumps in, risking getting her head cut off by the falling pillar. Like what? And right before putting the pieces together, she was thinking about Jinshi preparing himself for a ceremony. I feel like she subconsciously knew it could be Jinshi. And apparently, Jinshi isn't just some noble to her at this point.

Jinshi is an adorable idiot. Who lets someone bleed like that?? At least wrap and bandage it up first before you let someone drip blood all over the palace.

Such a beautiful episode.

I remember watching this for the first time I was SHOOK at that hit to MaoMao face and then her passed out at the end. AND the fact that Jinshi was almost assassinated! So this means that someone out there knows his true status, and has for quite awhile to incorporate this plan. This scene was HUGE. The concern on his face, the music at the end, it was done so well. And yes, we FINALLY get more of a confirmation as to who Jinshi really is. Stay tuned for more answers, and more questions… Side note: a lot of people make the comment about him walking instead of running, and someone mentioned it’s because of his status, same with how big of a deal it is that he’s carrying her himself, in front of everyone. Admittedly that’s also not something I thought of, just goes to show how heavy the cultural influence is and how high the societal standards and norms are.

@MeYoult I never thought of it that way. Makes so much more sense now.

This will be fun. Sorry I was absent for a week, but I managed to clear situation with my card. And I'm here mostly for Apothecary Diaries.

Funny enough he got demoted for calling out that same thing 😂

With all the jokes Maomao thinks of Jinshi looking like a woman...got a laugh that you thought it was a woman in the ceremony lol.
Cyber
Not to mention he's also dealing with the fact that if anyone had any doubt about his status, he just gave everyone the confirmation AND he gave away his secret for mao mao. That's also why I think the Lakin was also shocked about the scene of jinshi carrying his daughter

Maomao's greatest ability is to gaslight herself into thinking she's wrong

I bet you're glad you didn't get to this episode before the break before Apothecary week.

"Find yourself a partner that looks at you like Maomao looks at an ox bezoar"
Jessica McCann
THIS lol

Maomao would figure out the death note and L's name and then go: "But it's just conjecture on my part".
Jeff Schaller
My new scale for how excitable someone is is "0 to Maomao getting an Ox Bezoar"

haha, my head cannon: The guard, that CLUBBED Mao-mao across the cheek is dead....DEEEAAAAAAAAAAADD!! When he gets home that night, lights the candle and BOOOM there is Lakan, WAAAIITTTIINNGGG for the IMBECILE who DARED to lay a hand on his DAUGHTER!!! It was a slow death....and they NEVER found the body lol.

I love how Maomao was willing to put her life on the line for a noble she "didn't know". Had I figured it out I would've just gone to Jinshi/Gaoshun to report my findings, but Maomao rushed to the ceremony, likely got concussed just trying to get in, unwillingly curried a favor from the person she loathes and tackled said noble which that action alone could have cost her her life despite saving his.

@MeYouIt I guess that explains it a bit. But I mean... he could at least go at a brisk walk, no? Dude is strolling like it's a lazy Sunday afternoon lol. My grandma walks faster then that!
Chris Berger
That random official who called out the very dangerous rigging for that piller better get a promotion!

I shot myself in the foot with this collection because I started watching it along with you, but then I just couldn't put it down when I caught up, and ever since, I've been dying for you to get to this episode. The same thing happened with solo leveling as well. I need to be more patient haha either way I'm always like on the edge of my seat waiting for the next things. These animes are TOO GOOD.

You picked an excellent stopping point, each episode after this is a banger.
Buzzard
AH!! The power of love. (And an ox bezoar). I think the phrasing you're searching for is: Maomao is Jinshi's INFATUATION. He's got it bad.
HollowedSlayer
Omg this is gonna be a great week.
Jessica McCann
Thank you for sharing this
MeYouIt
I saw someone write how it has to do with Jinshis status compared to Maomaos. From an outsiders perspective it would already be against decorum for someone of noble birth carying a commoner, but it would be excusable since she saved his life. But if he did something like running with her to a doctor, he would be showing too great a concern for Maomao, it could draw unwanted (or even dangerous) attention to her
ValSunshine
Finally!! God I love this episode!! I refreshed my feed all day long waiting lol 🥰 and your reaction did not disappoint!
Cronshaw
this is the best answer
Jessica McCann
YEAH IM AS SHOOK AS LAKAN LOL I loved this episode so much
victoria t
Good point!
Jessica McCann
THIS!!! This got me....
Alex Chen
Maybe next time jinshi might want to walk a bit faster when the girl he’s smitten with is dripping blood everywhere.

Sure Lakan was not amused about Maomao beeing hurt but most importantly Lakan is shocked because Jinshi, whos identety is a secret, walks out with maomao in his arms revealing his identety this way. Lakan knew who jinshi was, but Jinshi saying "fuck it, Maomao comes first" he didnt see coming. This Anime is alot about the old chinese imperial and his culture. So it takes a while to get whats going on because we are not used to the customs of this culture and how big some of the for us little things where for them at the time.

Lakan is most likely shocked because Maomao was hurt and now Jinshi is carrying her out Crazy ep! So cute to see Jinshi so worried for her
Valentin Sauvestre
That OST during Mao Mao's run always get me chills, such a masterpiece at setting intrigue, the tension during the run, during the argument with the guard, all that combine with Mao Mao's VA is just splendid work
Demonheart
I love how they didn‘t played any background music between when the pilar fell and the moment Jinshi carried Maomao out of the building. It highlighted the dramatic and emotional moment between those two.
victoria t
Conspiracies afoot!
Ancientswords
The way she asked for the ox thing in that moment was insane xD. It only gets better and better! Really enjoying rewatching this with you haha
Yoann Bigor
A reason that lakan was shocked is that jinshi was outside in his high noble robe without hiding his face.

YAYYY!
