EPISODE REVIEWS
Again, A pretty straightforward episode, the pacing is great throughout and keeps one constantly engaged with the story. I like the little moments through which the characters' personalities are allowed to shine, such as Shouxue's perceptiveness when she notices Yi Siha flinching while bowing to her, noticing his pain and also treating him for it. It's the little moments like these that really make up a likeable character for me.
Loving the emotions building up here- from the tragic mystery solving to understanding others feelings, Liu's character development was beautifully written since the previous episodes. It might feel like repetitive since Liu solving the mysteries in every episode, but each mystery has different, tragic stories. Overall, good watch
Jusetsu and the emperor's relationship slowly feels like more a side story. This is another episode where it explores Jusetsu's interactions with the people in the palace
