I hope Yan Chi got a ridiculous elaborate hairstyle…

The description of this chapter… is Yan Chi gonna act pitiful lmao

Omg new location unlocked yaaay the plot is finally moving along we’re getting out of the monastery tonight 🔥🔥🔥

Reading this after a book that only rhymes is so wild i keep expecting this book to rhyme 😭 anyway the pheasants are back woo

AWWW YAN CHI WEARING DOUBLE BUNS

I checked the page count this chapter is so long wtf 😭

As long as it was Helan Qing instructing her, Yan Chi wouldn’t hesitate to obey 🩷

I feel like I’m going insane i keep seeing rhymes 😞 cmon… worked and ink rhyme pretty well…

hlq is a good teacher… maybe she’ll be able to teach yc many other things in the future iykwim

Haha food is the way to a girl’s heart oh god here we are at the capital ahh I’m scared

Oop. Someone’s here to cause trouble. Helan Qing’s brother maybe.?

Omg an assassination attempt time to take a page out of Li Xian’s rulebook

Yan Chi’s usual clear seas eyes… reading this chapter when I’m so tired was a fucking mistake

I heard that there’s a Chinese phrase like… not even water could pass through but “not even an assassin’s sweat could penetrate” is a new one for me 😭

Ooo this guy has golden hair… maybe he’s a foreigner. I just hope this book won’t have any racism/xenophobia

This guy has red eyes? That’s so fire ngl

THIS GUY SOUNDS SO COOL WHAT THE FUCK CAN I BE HIS FRIEND (i regret this later)

Oh shit he has beef with Helan Qing…

I FUCKING KNEW IT WAS HELAN YU HAHAHA nice to meet you

THESE SIBLINGS FUCKING HATE EACH OTHER 😭😭😭 LMAO Helan Qing is like sighs i have to deal with this asshole now

“I will not protect you” or “I can’t protect you?”

Never mind, this is another brother Helan Sheng… not Helan Yu who was mentioned in a previous chapter

HELAN SHENG IS SO FAR UP HIS OWN ASS 😭

Get a load of this guy 😭

Fixed$

Wait wait wait what do you mean you want to deal with Helan Qing’s people… Helan Sheng we can talk this out buddy we’re all friends here, right?

Helan Sheng isn’t sick his problem is he has a stick up his ass

They don’t know what to do with Yan Chi… eunuch time

Helan Sheng’s mother comes from the prime minister’s family and is the principal wife as well as the current empress… alright

Damn 13 siblings…

Yeah no I don’t like this Helan Sheng guy… guy’s a fucking asshole 😭

First time Yan Chi says Helan Qing’s name and it’s a declaration to kill her brother LMAO

#notpayingattentiontothislore

Maybe I actually should pay a LITTLE attention: so Helan Qing has a brother named Helan Yu, their mother is dead. Grand Commandant Wei loves his grandkids

Okay, shit, grandpa Wei we won’t mess with you

Yan Chi is me fr i do not understand political intrigue 😭

Not her comparing Yan Chi to a donkey… Yan Chi is mad dog…

OKAY BACK TO THE LETTER what does it say 😈

Okay i stressed for nothing the first letter was a nothingburger

A second one?

Okay cool HLQ’s helping out a place called Qingzhou

FUCK IT’S AN OMINOUS LETTER SEE? MY INSTINCTS ARE NEVER WRONG

Okay more lore… we got the Yan Kingdom and the Chen Kingdom…

Look at the emperor the Yan Kingdom is so fucked 😹😹

Yan Chi getting used to sneaking into HLQ’s room through the window..?

The mental picture of Yan Chi squatting looking up is so cute

GIVE. YAN. CHI. A. HAIR. BOW.

Hairstuffs is such a funny word 😭

I didn’t mention it in my chapter 6 post but i like how pdl wrote yinyin talking about helan qing’s emotions. She feels content when being around people like yan chi and she brings up how having a content heart is really important. Cool stuff.

Yan Chi stood before… Yan Chi?

LMAO “a brief nap helps with digesting a meal” right after i ate dinner

YINYIN YAN CHI FOUND FAMILY IS STARTING HELL YEAH don’t bully yan chi, doctor hou 😭

Waaait what do you mean someone who follows her majesty’s orders without proper training. I’m scared are you gonna make Yan Chi into like an assassin or 😭

AWWW THEY’RE SO CUTE

Awww Yan Chi is so trusting of Helan Qing don’t think i forgot what yinyin said

This is giving me fgep flashbacks of when Lin Wanyue was so “naive” and trusting of Li Xian and Li Xian did… all of that LMAO (although Helan Qing seems to have more of a moral compass than Li Xian 💀)

Don’t worry maids… Lord Mad Dog Yan Chi is scarier than any assassin she literally cut some guy’s ear off in chapter 1… she’ll be able to protect her wifey

Huh. I guess Yan Chi understands the concept of loyalty that Helan Qing’s maids have… I actually don’t understand this paragraph though 💀 isn’t Yan Chi supposed to be unaware of social norms whatever I’m nit picking

Sorry fuling… i have a feeling yan chi and helan qing will continue to violate the rules of propriety many times in the future too if you pick up what I’m putting down (this is literally the alternate title of the book LMAO)

Ooo does mad dog get a name in this one

Aww this scene is cute HELP NOT MAD DOG BEING COMPARED TO L FROM DEATH NOTE (from how she’s sitting)

Mad dog drooling 😭

The main couple is so cute so far ☺️ when does the angst start

This emperor is just bad news oh my god did he learn how to be an emperor from nangong rang 💀

AWWW HELAN QING i love her she is a cutie patootie

Yaaay Yan Chi got a name

Baby girl, you taught the mad dog medicine 🩷

Before hou yin became an imperial physician… she wasn’t an imperial physician 😭?

PDL KEEPS BRINGING UP THE FACT THAT ALL OF HELAN QING’S MAIDS GOT EXECUTED WTF IS UP WITH THAT WHAT HAPPENED

also curious if helan qing was disabled from birth or through other ways (like if someone poisoned her mom)

NO MAD DOG DON’T ATTACK YOUR WIFE

RIP mad dog what a short story from pdl the fl got shot by an arrow and fucking died in chapter 4

Remember when mad dog ripped off someone’s ear that was very glossed over 😭

AWWWW this is so cute

I hate this fucking emperor oh my god he is pissing me off.

Helan Qing doesn’t know what to do with mad dog but doesn’t she become an eunuch or something i think i read that in the description

Found family with yinyin and mad dog?

Helan Qing is so cool

HELLO 20 PEOPLE GOT EXECUTED FOR HELAN QING’S MAIDS TO GET PROMOTED WHAT DID THEY DO 😭

Wow there’s a carriage of pheasants guarded by hounds i wonder if that’s a metaphor or something-

I’m so fucking tired i keep reading the word “boner” in random places like when the translator put “banner” and “honor” i need more sleep

I wonder if yuzhu and fuling will have their own romance

FUCK this emperor and the jwqs emperor they both fucking suck and are corrupt as shit
