The fact that Shaoshang is 15 and carefully deciding this, is admirable. She clearly doesn't want to marry him but the Emporer is ready to punish anyone who denies Zisheng what he wants. She's hurt by her mother's public rejection so she feels she needs to salvage some pride. She wants to protect her family too. But she doesn't want to make a blind decision out of hurt and fear. So she asks Zisheng if he is still willing knowing she is a girl even her mother would reject. When he declares she's perfect for him, then she makes her decision. She won't be forced.

[@gillynzg.7444]

I was devastated for her and that is the high quality of the actors in this drama

[@BlackLunaBeauty]

From a different perspective you can see why her parents reacted that way especially her mom. 1) They had left home for many years and what they see is how Niao Niao doesn't fit the conventional daughters of that era. They way she had been behaving and them trying to discipline Niao Niao had never worked. Niao Niao is literally a very very rebellious teen. 2) Knowing that fact, when suddenly the Ling Buyi proposed, their initial reaction is most probably to protect Niao Niao because marrying Ling Buyi is practically marrying into the royal family. 3) Royal families have a ton of stifling rules & regulations to learn and to live by for the rest of their lives. Moreover, with Niao Niao's temperament, they fear she wouldn't be able to survive in those court ladies scheming & politics. Her parents know that these would probably kill Niao Niao aka suffocating her. And there's a saying in Chinese, to be in the companion of The King, it is to be in the company of The Tiger because you won't know when he will eat you. 4) Don't forget at that moment, they don't "know" Ling Buyi. To them, this is just a very high position general aka almost like the King's other son, proposed to their daughter. They wouldn't know how much Ling Buyi loves their daughter enough to do ANYTHING. 5) And to turn down the King's requests, they had to use all sort of excuses to degrade Niao Niao, in order to disguise their protection. 6) After Niao Niao agreed to the marriage, you can see that her parents weren't angry, but how worried. They may have used the worst method for Niao Niao's best interest and it didn't help that her mother did not explain it clearly to her after that. And yes, this incident had indeed left a HUGE trauma to Niao Niao. Sigh... all road to hell is paved with good intentions.

[@oshi990]

If I were Shaoshang, I would definitely have hated her more than anyone because a mother is supposed to support, comfort, and discipline when needed. The mother, on the other hand, after being absent for more than half her life, returns and turns her daughter’s desperate need for love to ashes with her constant humiliation of her young daughter, ruthless insistence on blind discipline and harsh words unrelieved by any tenderness and words of praise. Can Shaoshang feel anything but resentment and burning hate for her mother? I found the mother’s behaviour towards Shaoshang unforgivable.

OK from a lot of the comments here, it seems people don't quite understand or pick up on what is happening in this scene. Ling Bu Yi ask the emperor on his behalf to propose to marriage to Niao Niao. When the emperor does this, it is not a choice without a very good reason to refuse other wise you might get the entire family executed (by entire family meaning the entire family tree, servants and all), so her parents use her bad upbringing as a valid excuse to avoid this political nightmare. By that it means, Ling Bu Yi is a general that attends court and that means he has dealings with court advisors, They might hurt Niao Niao directly or indirectly just to get at him and her parents are just protecting her from that. Her Father is a low level general so he knows how bad it is up top and is quite satisfied near the bottom.

[@goldenfreddy-gj5wy]

This is true, as harsh as their words may be, they just didn't want their daughter to suffer, also by this time they didn't know her opinion about marrying General Ling, even though they knew there was something there, but were not certain, so they didn't want to compromise her without knowing how she truly feels, truly smart parents, lay low now to avoid all the problems strategy.

Although I agree their intention was to protect her, however the impact of what her mom said in front of everyone caused their more strain in their mother-daughter relationship.

It’s difficult to understand their protection however well intended from someone who’s never actually had it their entire life.

The fact that Shaoshang had none of the characteristics she was suppose to have is worrying because she could very well get herself framed, shunned and killed. Parents in that time frame, especially those of nobility had VERY high standards for their kids, it’s only natural her parents, especially her mom would react and say those things. because we’re born in different time periods and behaviours are VERY different compared to ancient China, of course our first reaction is to hate on her parents but it’s much deeper than that 😊

By saying that "she wasn't ready YET for a marriage of this importance" and arguing for time [years?] for her to become ready would have been the best way out --- but then again if everyone did the RIGHT things then they wouldn't have character arcs, we wouldn't have the ability to see them become better, etc.

There is also a lot of hurt under the surface as CSS is headstrong and rebels against her.

Over time the mother comes to understand what needs to be done and more closely becomes the mother that CSS always needed.

My assumption is that likely hurt him a lot but he's more concerned about CSS and not wanting her to feel bullied.

This scene sets the tone and dynamics for everyone involved. Royal and non royal. Niao Niao is so young and uncultered. She's willful and ignorant of royal protocal and it's pitfalls. Ling Buyi had to work quick to at least get engaged to her or lose her. He knows he got lucky that the first engagement fell through but at the Lantern Festival at least 4 men eyed her, including Ling Buyi. Niao Niao knew a wrong move/marriage could ruin her. Even thpugh she was scared and didn't know Ling Buyi that well she trusted his judgement. He saw her when no one else did and he trusted her. Her parents let her down and as much as she loved them and knew that they wanted better for her, her mother's scathing assesment of her failings cemented her decision to get engaged. This also cemented her feelings for the kind Empress. She could already sense the mother in her. Her parents abandonment and cruel words did too much danage. She was a broken doll looking for a home. She hoped she found it in her engagement and in her trust in the Queen. Her decisions were right for someone so young and inexperienced.

Her mother make shoshang embarass in front of everyone.

[@mohdusman2649]

Shaosheng character is only made for zhao lu si... I hope I meet her atleast one time in lifetime...

[@yugiyamifan]

With a mother like this who needs an evil opponent?!!! Really, i've never seen say such cruel words about and in front of their daughter; much less to sb of higher status. I'm really worried these people have no brains. 😑😑😑😑

[@jothysadanandan3997]

This mother charector is the most vicious charector.

[@erutherford]

Vicious but also redeemable it would seem. I don't think she's being intentionally cruel but there's a lot of complicated goals and emotions going on. CSS definitely hurt her mother's feelings by not being "the perfect daughter", rebelling against her teachings, etc. Also her mother, last she understands, is that CSS was both hurt by breaking off her betrothal recently AND saying she had no intentions for LBY -- thus making the mother desperate to stop a betrothal that CSS doesn't want being forced on her. Unfortunately that hurt lead her mother to try to "help" CSS in the most hurtful way possible. In the end the mother needed time to grow and to have the shock of loosing her one & only flesh & blood daughter to better understand what she needed to do & be.

曾黎演得很好。露思後來跟她成了閨蜜好友！😂❤❤❤

[@tims4966]

The mother is a good mother. Since Ep 1, she wanted her daughter to be virtuous, educated and avoid trouble. If she didn't love her daughter, she wouldn't even have tried to raise her.

[@aasikagupta3289]

Why her parents were so against there marriage, they were even ready to die or to quit their position. How could a mother cam say such things about her own daughter

I haven’t watched this drama but can someone explain why the her parents are against the engagement, especially when he’s an honorable, heroic general/prince?

[@mskoki5712]

Because imperial court is full of danger,conspiracy, impeachment & constant scheming. A person marrying into royal family need to follow etiquette and rules which Shaoshang don't bother even in her house, she treats kindness equally and gives back revenge if slighted , she is petty...all the qualities that can get her killed ..in those times it also mean the whole family including servants will be executed or punished . Her parents wee away on war so neglected her education and etiquette. So they had to give worst possible reason to make the Emperor retract his proposal for ling buyi

[@daniashafique-ss2xn]

HE AN,T NOT LETTING HER GO AHHHHH

[@p30rlstagram]

Her father was actually trying really hard to be there for Shaosheng while her mother was just humiliating her every single day and refuse to love her. And i really enjoyed the way, the emperess just took her with her and loved her like her own daughter, that’s what she needed at this moment.

[@denalawless275]

My question is why is Mrs. Chen like this with her daughter?

[@Liette2610]

Episode 24 if you are watching a website where the series is not separated and the episode is in order, however, if you are watching in a website where the series is separated "Love like the Galaxy: Part 1" and "Love like the Galaxy: Part 2", then this episode is from Episode 24 of the "Love like the Galaxy: Part 1", thank me later. Edit: Wrong number lol.
