Ooooh, thank you so much for continuing your recaps!
I haven't made it to Zhao's mom in the novel, that sounds like an awesome wasted opportunity (like so many...)
I keep wondering about the actual significance of Chu's puppet. Is it ever explained? I mean, he's the "puppet master", and can generate puppet strings for reasons, but other than that? I assumed the puppet is important, but it just looks so ridiculous, it always made me laugh.
Very good points on Zhu Yilong's acting here, down to the way he holds himself. It is funny to see it again knowing Shen Wei's backstory. This show is better on a rewatch for all those little details. (And for the chance to just fast forward through the crap. :))
