ah duo and lishu

Omg i totally forgot to ask but for the light novels…. do ah duo and lishu ever meet again after Ah duo left the rear palace? 😭

I understood that Ah duo only shows up here and there but maybe even the slightest implication? Ah duo and Lishu are so dear to me 😔

iphone 15pro

i feel like my battery degrading is so excessive lmao…. but also i think just today it dropped to 70% and my phone is now genuinely tweaking out.

It started earlier today when my phone died at 2% and the second i plugged it in like one second later the battery was 46% already 🫠…

then now it starts threatening to die at 50%… sound goes super soft and everything goes laggy until i have to plug it in😭

I don’t mind replacing the battery but i was hoping to put it off for awhile since my phone has no backup so i wanted to slowly save the photos i want but it seems like a replacement is pretty urgent now.

I’m really scared about losing all my data though, apple warns you to back up the whole phone before booking a replacement battery appointment 💧

has anyone dealt with like factory reset when you go in to replace your battery ? 😅

edit: now it also won’t charge over 80% despite me not setting a charging limit 😀 i’m doomed

I just rewatched season one episode 11 and Ah duo mentioned that after she lost her son, she and the emperor returned to being just friends.

Pretty normal statement.

Except, she was his only concubine for many years even after she lost her womb.

Does that mean the Emperor basically abstained for over 10 years!!/?2!4!4!4!4!5?

that lustful old man !!!??(said lovingly😂)!?2!4?3!34????!!!!!!!!!!!!!

am i missing something?

I’ve only barely started the light novels but know some things so feel free to spoil me lmao i’m so curious actually

Emperor aside,

I find the relationship between the four main consorts to be somewhat interesting and surprising, I think i’m too used to reading really dramatic manhwas but usually the consorts would have it out for each other no matter what but here the four main consorts (before loulan) are all so mature and practically feel like they don’t really gaf about each other haha

The only incident was the baby incident of Lihua and Gyokuyou but really they never harboured ill intentions towards each other afterwards, just the hysterics of their maternal love towards their own baby…

I’d understand that Ah Duo wasn’t seen as a threat and honestly any interactions with her would’ve probably been calm and nice so I like to think she got along with both Lihua and Guokuyou or just was amicable with them.

And of course Lishu and Ahduo no need to say anything that’s mother and daughter right there!

Lishu also probably was not a threat to either Gyokuyou and Lihua..

Well in the end everyone is just well mannered and mature (Lishu is just baby, forgive her manners) and they probably didn’t meet much anyway given how big the rear palace is.

If anything, their ladies in waiting were much more vicious on their own lol

I’m rewatching season 1 now with the knowledge of Ah duo and the Emperor viewing Lishu as their surrogate daughter or something

so does this make the previous time garden party a family event given that the only attendees were the Emperor, Ah duo and Lishu (+ officials) lol.

How i wish there was a scene with one three of them interacting… i don’t think even there was one in the light novels haha

I wouldnt have been opposed to seeing a flashback of them as children or just the emperor visiting Ah Duo just to chat as best friends ㅠㅠ

lowkey sucks they barely had any interaction because i find their story the most interesting…

10 years as his only consort i would die for a flashback of that time><

ALSO!!!! the emperor visiting ah duo at her villa!!! Would’ve seriously been nice to see in season 2..

Almost all their scenes were flashbacks/just heavily implied with no direct interaction so i really think it’s such a shame

hi! usually i’m an exclusive anime and only occasionally manga reader but kusuriya no hitorigoto totally hooked my heart and i find myself wanting to know more!!

That being said, I unfortunately have taken a serious liking to Ah duo and while I am happy she’s happy(where the anime stopped at least), I am not super pleased I barely get to see her 💔

I love the whole storyline and pretty much everyone but of course I would like someone to let me know if perhaps Ah Duo might appear more/ doesn’t appear much in the light novels…? 🥹 It might impact my will to read the light novels but i do think i will eventually pick it up haha just want to set expectations kind of.

Thanks!

Also web novel and light novel are different tags? is there two different novels ..?
