I think this really stuck the landing. Even the fickleness of the ever-changing emperors. Han Liang could have been Lin Jin Qi and vise versa.
I'm glad for the verbal confirmation that Scholar Han *did* marry that townswoman. And that Lin Jin Qi had such respect for him even after they'd been love rivals. Because life moves on. People grow.
The ending arc was choppy with all the time jumps, but did not ruin the rest of it.
