Status Updates From A Song to Drown Rivers

I fear I would have fallen for fuchai 🤷‍♀️

I’m Sorry but why is this bih so obsessed with this fanli guy when she barely knows anything about him. It feels like a telling and not showing situation. Like I’ve been “told” hundreds of times that xishi and fanli have some sort of firey connection, but I haven’t been shown it.

Soooo the king is gonna try to kill Fanli, the king is gonna murder that man and it will be all Xishi’s fault

Still I’m actually really enjoying Xishi’s time in the palace more than I anticipated, the subtle details of court life and influence are so fun to read but it’s also not so complicated I can’t follow along

Although I have no idea how our girl is coming back from this
