dangermousieHave a Four/Ruoxi MV:
I am fangirling Emperor Yongzheng. That's not right.
For those who prefer Ruoxi with Eight (like me, sometimes. I am so undecided):
I am in the middle of ep 6, and Eight's memory of the first time he saw Ruolan and fell in love at first sight with the idea of her - it broke my heart (so much disaster could be avoided if people were able to talk before marriage, honestly). I think he is transferring his feelings to Ruoxi because she makes him think of the way Ruolan was (I am sure that is exascerbated because everyone says how alike Ruolan and Ruoxi look). Oh man, this is a total clusterfuck. I feel beyond dreadful for Eight but Ruoxi deserves to be loved for herself and not for being like someone else unattainable...
Another standout was the scene when Ruoxi went drinking with Thirteen and Lu Wu and they bumped into Fourteen and his loutish followers who were insulting Lu Wu (basically calling her a whore and saying that now they know why she puts on too many airs for a prostitute - because she has Thirteen as one of her clients) and Ruoxi tore into them. And then when Fourteen tried to shame her for being friends with a hooker, she told him that a prostitute can be a virtuous woman too. YESSSS.
Also, I loved loved loved this scene in Relics of an Emissary. Spoiled Princess is kinda awesome - she refused to save herself by ditching wounded Hot Period Cop, and tried to piggy-back him (!!!) and then when he let go of her hand so as to give her more of a chance to escape, she went back and found him down at the bottom of the hill and made a makeshift stretcher and basically refused to give up until they were found. Go, spoiled but awesome princess! I loved even more that Hot Period Cop's way to thank her was to buy her a hidden weapon and teach her self-defense. They are adorable!.
Her trying to save him:
His teaching her martial arts (I almost typed marital arts, lol):
