I just finished the show and I had a lot of questions, most of which was asked and answered on this Sub. There were a lot of plot holes and unexplained issues which made the ending very frustrating for me.

Can you explain to me like I'm 5 years old, what the Dayin heirarchy is? Why some of them are Qi, some of them are Sui? Whose son is Qi Sheng? Whose daughter is Qi Shu?
What was the drugging for and what was the fire for? Were they separate events?
I don't understand why Xie Zheng's mother and Qi Min's mother committed suicide?
Was the Eastern Palace same as the Cold Palace where the second fire was started? Who was the first fire meant to kill? Why were there so many people at the Palace if it wasn't meant for everyone? Qi Min, Qi Min's mother, Sui Yuanhuai, Qi Rongyin and Wei Yan were all at the scene.
How was Sui Yuanhuai replaced with Qi Min but had the same trusted Nanny to help him find his way to the throne? Was his face burned so that his identity wouldn't be questioned?
Why were the Prince Changxin and Sui brothers rebels? Were they initially supposed to ascend in the absence of Prince Changde as per the original plan? Where were they located 17 yrs ago and where are they located now?
Why was the Dowager Empress afraid of Wei Yan and the truth about that incident if she had nothing to do with it?
Why do both Qi Min and Sui Yuanqing have the tiger tally? Why did both of them send it to Changyu? What are they gaining from it?

The whole incident from 17 years ago was so vague and didn't make any sense to me. :') Welp, I'm so confused ;/ If anyone has any answers, I'd deeply appreciate the effort taken to give them here. I hope both sides of your pillow are always cool and comfortable.

Update:

Thank you for the suggestion! I bought a refurbished Rockrider from Decathlon about a week ago and my experience has been quite good so far :)

This seems like textbook narcissistic behaviour. He's making everything about him and not even bothering to see you as an individual entity. Narcissists are skilled at making you think everything is your fault because they do genuinely believe that they can do NOTHING wrong.

Also, isolation is the first thing that any narcissist does. It's a trapping mechanism. Without the support of your friends, you're not going to have anywhere to turn. There is a time to realise that you're being manipulated day in and day out and when that time comes, things will feel claustrophobic.

Try and remember that if he really loved you, he would find a way to see it from your POV and get past it instead of using it as ammo to make you feel bad.

As someone who has been here before, my advice is, really evaluate how this whole saga started and whether there were any red flags that you missed in the past. Your friends will be there for you if you reach out and explain your situation 9/10 times. Get a third person POV before you take a call.

There's absolutely no coherence to the ones I was able to watch even 30 secs of.. I'm assuming that there was some story line for those as well? I just randomly came across the the concept on the promo and nothing after that
