ep 4 spoilers ahead

1.The empress wonders how the deity could awaken since she is not 18 (maybe it has something to do with the flower deity stone...)

2.Ling'er administers the potion, he awakens, and while looking not to good she says she will 'rest well'

3.This heavenly little set up that Yu has is all thanks to the emperor (oh he is def. the male lead he is clearly nicer than he appears) he actually gets a chance to thank him.

4.Tianyi is very adept at reading people and has a knack for knowing what they want. Although Yu swears to not accept anything from the emperor he is persuaded by a rare document that should have been destroyed (I bet Tianyi will hit a wall when it comes to seducing Ling'er. I bet she isn't easily bought)

5.The empress goes to the star court and meanwhile Tianjun and Tianyi trade words (the latter seems destined to always win because he isn't trying to be a 'good person') Tianjun promises to pay him back 10 fold and Tianyi kind of smirks and tells him to bring it on but asks how he will succeed when there are people like Luolin (the traitor) and Ling'er (useless) around him. (I personally wonder if Tianyi envies Tianjun who has the luxury of being 'the good guy' after all his mother is empress and does all the dirty work. But Tianyi is emperor and knows that the empress will seek out the star deity so he is trying to find it first and use it)

6.So the emperor tries to fly with fake wings and crashes and it is rather funny to see him be vulnerable and his inability to admit how terrible he looks speaks to a deep (awful) pride/narcissism that is a little endearing (come on we will always like someone who is imperfect because they are more relatable and with the oh-so-perfect Tianjung naturally we will like Tianyi; much more human) Here we learn that the wingkind grow their wings when they turn 20 and until then flying is prohibited (strange)

7.Change scene: Tianyi is talking to Yu and we learn that a book 'The Land of Abyss and Sky' speaks of a machine that could grant humans the ability to fly (currently only the wingkind can fly) it seems Jishu could have made it but never did because it would distort balance/mess with harmony.

8.Tianyi gives Yu the flower amulet and tasks him with unlocking its secret (Tianyi scored big here; he found a guy interested in puzzles and also not smart enough to ask questions. Yu seems excited to break its secrets)

9.LIng'er is wandering, looking for a place to die quietly/change scene and the flower amulet breaks into and flies off the moment she collapses Yu gives chase//change scene and Tianjun learns that his precious ling'er sacrificed her life and now he is hunting her down

10.The amulet goes into Ling'er and we learn that she always wanted to be Tianjun's bridge since she was 8. She awakens, miraculously healed and from afar the empress smugly watches, believing she has 'won' because it seems Jishu's daughter favors her son...

(that would be too easy I would place my money on Tianyi as the male lead)

11.It seems that she has super powers now, including the ability to hear. She overhears the empress insist that she marry Tianjun. As she is listening, Tianyi shows up with a letter he wrote, and she believes it is from Yu because he said so (she is extremely dense but I have a feeling he is even more dense when it comes to emotions for all of his cleverness//he bullies her so I think he likes her) and he tells her to 'come to a place with me' (after what he did I wouldn't follow him anywhere!)

12.Ling'er chooses to overlook the indignity of being carted off by the emperor. She happily tells him that she is going to be the crown princess and marry Tianjun because she 'just heard it' (she didn't hear the part where Tianjun refused based on status)

This episode gets a 7 for finally picking up.
