Added 2025-03-24 21:32:18 +0000 UTCJinshi likes her and he wants her

She would be a political genius if she’d bothered to actually read the room a bit. I think the fact that she could do it, but chooses not to makes it worse.

2025-03-27 15:09:45 +0000 UTCThis is not an excuse but an explanation for future events. Jinshi was careful not to eat any of those “ invigorating” foods, but the boy has been taking hormones suppressant for at least a year to do his whole eunuch act. As of the last scene of the last episode he’s not longer taking them and just got an adrenaline spike from running for his life. He’s a little hormonally unbalanced right now.

2025-03-27 02:05:30 +0000 UTC…drunk doesn’t give you a nosebleed, the poor man was flustered and was trying to cover his front while awkwardly shuffled towards the door because he needed to get to his bedroom.

2025-03-27 01:42:21 +0000 UTCThey start the series as 17&18 and are now 18&19
Jordyn Brown
2025-03-27 01:27:38 +0000 UTCIt’s also why Jinshi brought Maomao along, not to do anything inappropriate, but as a pretty (notice she’s not wearing her feckles) young woman serving directly under Jinshi her presence in it self is a deterrent, she’s also immune to Jinshi’s looks and isn’t effected by stimulant based aphrodisiac so she won’t be trying to jump him either. Where he miscalculated was that Maomao is the thought termination queen and hasn’t worked out that he isn’t a eunuch so that missing data point is messing with her ability to read several situations properly.

Ronnie
2025-03-27 00:34:02 +0000 UTCNo Jinshi is 19 and Maomao is 18. They discussed his age in an episode last season, and Maomao specifically talked about the imperial brother being only a year older than her.

2025-03-26 16:58:40 +0000 UTCTo be fair, how many everyday people know that turtles, at least the soft-shelled variety, are known for being potent aphrodisiacs. Most people would look at you funny if you suggested that snake was edible, let alone turtle. And the properties of that meat are pretty esoteric.
Coatl45
2025-03-26 14:03:01 +0000 UTCI’d bet there was also a hefty dose of other aphrodisiacs laced in the meal, as well. Someone REALLY wanted Jinshi dosed up on that shit. Most likely, there was a lady waiting to sneak into Jinshi’s room to set up a fait accompli so her family could push for a marriage. Which is why he decided to sleep in Basen’s room and pretend that he didn’t notice. That part is important, cause even if it was just aphrodisiacs, spiking the Imperial Brother’s like this will likely have serious consequences.
Coatl45
2025-03-26 13:54:56 +0000 UTCNot only was the food laced with enough aphrodisiacs to put an elephant in rut, but the dishes themselves are known for having an invigorating effect on a person’s libido. So it was doubly potent. My guess is that there was a lady waiting to sneak into Jinshi’s room after dinner so Lord Shishou’s family can arrange for a fait accompli and push a marriage with him. Which is why Jinshi went to sleep in Basen’s room, not his own.
Coatl45
2025-03-26 13:46:44 +0000 UTCYeah they’re a year apart Jinshi is 18 and Maomao is 17 currently. But apparently since Jinshi is undercover and looks more mature for his age, they had him lie about his age to others to not be found out and I think to others he’s suppose to be 3 or 4 years older to Maomao
Alex Villa
2025-03-26 04:36:20 +0000 UTCYeah the turtle made it quite obvious, even if IDK wtf all the other shit besides the booze was in the meal
Skebaba
2025-03-25 22:16:01 +0000 UTC@Huemon Nottabear It's not that she's immune because of that, it's that the stuff in general doesn't work on people who have high resistance from heavy use of various stimulants (under which aphrodisiacs would fall under, as a sub-type) etc such as alcohol, poisons (albiet only certain types of poisons work as stimulants under proper dosage, this isn't universal to all poisons for obvious reasons) etc
Skebaba
2025-03-25 22:14:04 +0000 UTCSadly for big boi development, we're prolly gonna look for like S5 or w/e at the current pacing of 2 volumes per 24 episode season
Skebaba
2025-03-25 22:11:47 +0000 UTCTechnically 19 & 18 as of S2, IIRC
Skebaba
2025-03-25 22:10:24 +0000 UTCOh so she's just snack sized ok😅💀

2025-03-25 21:14:13 +0000 UTCApparently they are 18 and 17 respectively.

2025-03-25 06:41:16 +0000 UTCJinshi getting mad at maomao for not realizing that he shouldnt eat aphrodisiacs because he is not a eunuch and not immune to its effects. He is frustrated that Maomao hasnt figured it out yet.
Ragdefender2
2025-03-25 06:32:31 +0000 UTCThe food was “invigorating” which is why a proclaimed eunuch shouldn’t eat to draw attention
Daniel Turner
2025-03-25 06:15:06 +0000 UTCJinshi sama, is that a feifa in your pocket? Or...

Hollow
2025-03-25 01:52:59 +0000 UTCI think people aren't familiar with the word apéritif and didn't pick up that the drink had alcohol. "Invigorating" is fairly subtle so I get people missing that if they aren't familiar with turtle being considered an aphrodisiac.

Gilthwixt
2025-03-24 23:25:47 +0000 UTCSooo uh when she said "invigorating", she meant that all of it, especially the soft shell turtle, has natural aphrodisiac effects 😂. Like the equivalent of food spiked with viagra. So you got Basen immediately running to his room to deal with "his problem", everyone confused that Maomao is unphased, and Jinshi asking "Are you really okay with me eating this?? Like, we're sharing the room together and you want us both on this stuff???" 🤣
Gilthwixt
2025-03-24 23:14:51 +0000 UTCIt's all foods that get you horny, that's why Basen was holding on to his crouch. Probably the noble who invited him, is trying to make him slip up and screw around with possibly an intended target they got set up for him. Considering what happens later in the episode, more than likely trying to knock him off the succession latter. All so their Consorts kid has a shot at the seat of Emperor, plus with Jinshi gone assassinations may become easier 🤷♂️

2025-03-24 23:14:30 +0000 UTCJinshi really hit her with the Darkseid pulling Superman's cape meme at the end there 😂
Raven86
2025-03-24 23:12:52 +0000 UTCThe food was "invigorating" like a little blue pill that men take. Which is why Jinshi didn't want to eat it.
Nae
2025-03-24 23:10:13 +0000 UTCShe doesn't necessarily want to piece it together. Shes knows enough to figure shit out, but she chooses to be ignorant of the fact since paraphrasing her words knowing the truth tends to lead to more trouble. She always forcefully stops herself to figuring out some things on purpose, but situation and circumstances forces her hand

2025-03-24 23:08:27 +0000 UTCOne thing I love about this show is nothing is wasted. Every character that's introduced has a purpose. Every bit of information is important.
Nae
2025-03-24 23:04:13 +0000 UTCYep, it's all food that'll get you invigorated aka horny. Maomao is unaffected, Basen had a straight nosebleed and probably painful boner, lol.
botanbutton
2025-03-24 22:36:54 +0000 UTCLol. Yea. Turtle. I dunno why i said crab 🤣
Jhanine Wright
2025-03-24 22:36:27 +0000 UTCYup, except it's turtle, not crab.
chaosdreamer
2025-03-24 22:20:32 +0000 UTCAahhh they missed the part about the food being an aphrodisiac 😅 Jinshi, who is pretending to be a eunuch (at least for now) should be basically unaffected by drugs like that but since he's not actually a eunuch, he was abstaining from the food AND asking Maomao if he really should eat it. Kind of also hinting that he is not in fact a eunuch.
poisonivybag
2025-03-24 22:10:21 +0000 UTCLol in the Manga they said "This is full of food of food that gives you ENERGY" and they highlighted the energy. But then it moved on to explain the soft shell qualities. You're right. They just has atleast had her say what the soft shell does. Then it would be more obvious because this is the 3rd reaction I've watched and nobody knows what happened to Basen and why Jinshi couldn't eat the food.

corLeonis
2025-03-24 21:58:53 +0000 UTC"Invigorating" was meant to be the tell there, but yeah it's easy to miss & they could've given her an extra line to explain.
KomodoughDragon
2025-03-24 21:57:06 +0000 UTCJinshi really pulled her back to him like “Nah, come here.” 🥹🥹🥹🥹
Earphone Jack
2025-03-24 21:50:25 +0000 UTCLol. All the food contained aphrodisiacs and the wine was very strong. They were trying to set Jinshi up. The soft shell crab itself has known aphrodisiac qualities. In the manga Mao Mao said this. I dunno why she didn't say it in the anime.
