For most people, freckles are a sign of sun damage. In a time like when this series happens, pale was beautiful because it was a sign of wealth. The poor and the peasants had to spend all day working under the sun. They got tanned and got freckles. The wealthy and high class people, however, got to spend most of the time indoors. So their skin was pale.
I agree. I have some freckles but when I get a tan they come out with vengeance. Some go away by late winter but not all. Now that I’m old they stay around and don’t look that cute at all. They make you look older, and not it’s not skin cancer. Had them checkup a while ago and skin cancer does not run in our family.
i spend the vast majority of my time inside but get freckles (and sunburn) very easily, so i am kinda in between the 2, it might also be because i have partially red hair genetically (must be a recessive gene though)
Watching you get so giddy over Jinshi giving Mao Mao his hairpin was way, way too cute. They are adorable together, even if Mao Mao finds him frustratingly difficult.
17:41 - Love the energy. The Jinshi and Maomao moment hit so hard as a small moment since it felt so well with the atmosphere for them to connect a bit more personally. Jinshi blushing was so cute. He got lovestruck so hard sooner than I was expecting. lol
So the change in the fire colour is caused by salts, not herbs. Just like normal table salt is Sodium-Chloride (NaCl), there are other salts that will 'burn' with different colours, eg: copper=blue, strontium=red, barium=green, calcium=orange. Maomao is guessing that the wooden sticks are being dipped into salts and dried, and then passed on, and can then be burned to reveal a secret colour code. Some salts are dangerous to touch because they combine with the sweat on our hands, which is why they were wrapped in cloth when the eunuch found them.
To clear a big misunderstanding: When Gyokuyou said she was jealous of Fuyou last episode, she didn’t mean that she loved someone else. The scene is much more clear in the light novel, but what Gyokuyou meant was that she envied Fuyou for being able to have her love all to herself. Gyokuyou truly loves the emperor, but she has to share him with other women (which the emperor is also politically obligated to do) when she wishes she could have him all to herself.
@@amandabernard8179 Actually Gyokuyou is about 19 at the start of the story, so their age gap is 15-16 years depending on the time of year Either way, Gyokuyou genuinely loves him and doesn't seem to mind the difference. The Emperor's taste in women is also surprisingly on the mature side, for the time period (as the light novels themselves state, in this time period it was normal for girls to start getting married and bear children at 14 or 15, and women being even just 19 were often already considered "past their prime")
I'm no vet but from the sound of it, considering that the liver function is normal, the common infectious causes seem to have been negative, the cat probably has immune-mediated hemolytic anemia (where the body's immune system destroys its own red blood cells), there are a bunch of other causes too but this would be my first guess. A Coombs test would be useful imo in this case followed by a bunch of others for a differential diagnosis and, if it's confirmed, the treatment would mostly be immunosuppressants in this case.
Cat- This may sound a little weird, but sometimes cats develop extreme sensitivity in their whiskers and will not eat or drink so long as their whiskers touch the sides of the bowl containing food or water. Try presenting the food on a plate to see if this might be the problem.
What I'm worried about is that they are looking for people with burns on their arms, and Maomao has burns on her left arm. They're self-inflicted, but good luck explaining that to suspicious guards.
Jinshi would probably be the one leading the investigation, so she is unlikely to be a suspect. Plus she has plenty of people that can vouch that she had the burns prior to this.
The hairpin has an extra meaning which will be explained next episode ;) But good lord, do you have fun with the Maomao/Jinshi antics. Good for you - this is what the show is really all about!
I hope your catto gets better soon, I'll ask a vet friend for any input. Cats typically won't eat if they're in pain or ill, it's sometimes a sign that they're suffering from a low mood because of illness (similar to what happened to my cat when he was very ill a few years ago), but please follow up with the internal medicine specialist. If his liver is improving and he's not getting worse, there's a good chance it'll resolve on its own, but you don't want to take any chances with feline pals.
Marriage is more of an Western thing. Back in the 1600 China the emperors concubines are his wife’s and many are gif for political favors. He may never even sleep with some. You should watch the move “ Raise of the Red Lantern” it’s not the emperor but a lord buts it’s basically the same thing. Very good movie.
Go back to the scene where the concubine Lishu, the little one, is saying "Yes, Master Jinshi". I agree, it is not her, but look closely at the attendant that is on the left side, the hair could be a match and she has a bit of a scowl. Also. Gyokuyou has those gold metal pieces in her hair hanging down. They are not in the silhouette.
the fricle reveal was really surprising for me but like how the story goes into the topic for why. Jinshi getting speechless over MaoMao never gets old Next episode gonna be cool :) The hair pins will be explained more later as it functions for more reasons
love the reaction to the hairpin scene! XD about the shadow, if it was Gyokuyou, we would have been able to see the silhouette of her hair accessories, so i don't think it was her unless it was before she got dolled up for the party.
I'm dead at the "usually productive between 1 and 6am" 😂. Because that's usually when I'm chilling on youtube before bed then I see you've uploaded something "20minutes ago" haha
jinshi is beautiful. Many people are fascinated by it. But this time, the situation was reversed. She showed an honest reaction to one woman named maomao. I like this story.
Your reaction to Jinshi giving Maomao his hairpin was my exact reaction as well. 😂 I don't know if the author intends for them to end up together (weather Maomao likes it or not), but they definitely got something going on, especially because one of the reasons for a male to give a female his hairpin back then was because of a romantic interest in that woman.
For people like me who love watching reaction videos, this anime is very interesting, for example White girls in fluffy scenes: 17:40 Black guys in fluffy scenes: “Ayoo, n***a! Leave her alone!” (Go check our other reacts, you’ll see what I meant)
I'm not entirely convinced that is Gyokuyou whose hands are shown with the burns. The lighting used in there only reveals two tones - the light (frill) part and red. In her garden party outfit, she has the frill, pink layer, orange layer and red layer. This can either be because those tones are shown as the same in the dark (to make it inconclusive on purpose), or because she is wearing a different outfit there. In either case, it may apply to someone else as well. Or not. I guess we'll see soon!
The squealing part was me one i 1st read the manga❤😂, and beleive there so many on this show (also in Web novel and light novel) even if they aren't the main focus of this show
Just watched you react for eps.1-2. Had to go to the garden party episode to see what you thought of Maomao's "debut". 17:40 ; Now that's a great reaction. And, yeah. Jinshi now feels something besides romantic desire.
you're good, we see those scars in episode 1 when she brought medicine to the brothel. one of the courtesans makes a comment about her testing poisons on herself again.
Dang!! I just find out Ah Duo,one of the emperor conbunie biggest secret ❤️❤️😆😆 Hope it got mentioned in next further episodes later on.....(Please author or editor,don't cut that part when get animated)
Man, in the beginning, how is he so jacked without testosterone? Isn't he a eunuch? Also aren't eunuchs supposed to be short because they never go through puberty? Somethings sus here.
I don't believe he was ever a eunuch. Its just a rumor MaoMao heard and she just assumed he fit the bill. A eunuch manager thats only job is suppose to be wrangling around concubines wouldn't be dealing with things like food poisoning on the frontlines. I think he's a military leader or some other royalty close to the King.
