Y’all Really Gonna Hate Me Because I’m Not Gonna Shut Up All Weekend About This Episode 😩 Fuck

Y’all really gonna hate me because I’m not gonna shut up all weekend about this episode 😩 fuck crumbs, we got an entire Maomao and Jinshi buffet today.

The frog is finally out of the bag, the worst kept secret in the show, Jinshi not being a real eunuch, is finally revealed to Maomao. LMAO at her refusing to listen to him say it so she wouldn’t have to deal with the repercussions. But girl you know you can’t just say someone’s meat is the same size as a frog without them getting mad 😭 not Jinshi storming off in a huff because she said it was “somewhat large” lmaooo. Some things we just don’t say!

Always good to learn more about my boy Gaoshun. Hearing about his backstory actually explains why he and Jinshi get on so well and are a good mentor/mentee duo. They both sort of got thrust into positions without their consent and are just making the best of it. Also confirmation of our other worst kept secret about Jinshi being the emperor’s brother! Something tells me that this assassination attempt is just the first of many challenges he and Maomao will face so she better start listening lol

Worst assassination attempt ever. If you’re gonna use a flintlock pistol you better make sure you send your best shot lmao. RIP to the noble who tried to take out Jinshi.

Glad Maomao apologized to Jinshi quickly and didn’t let things drag out, but it really does make a ton of sense why she’d struggle to understand people’s feelings and social cues given her upbringing. I’d love to see she and Takao from Ameku MD this season collab because they have the exact same issues

Jinshi should’ve known better than to give Maomao Ox Bezoars if he wanted her to actually pay attention to what he had to say lmaoo. Hilarious end to the episode and perfect transition into the second cour. Nice mix of Jinmao and lore stuff!
