That scene is hilarious.

I think that scene refers to MZH being accused for being improper.

I think this leads to their marriage.

MZH hasn't annoyed me with her cutie acts so JT and the director did a good job to keep its audience continue watching this drama without frustration.

It's a good drama because of the ML and FL's scenes. I like their dialogue and the pace of the drama is smooth.

No dragging scenes and cutie acts.

The FL cannot stop reminding the ML about his age. He's offended by the remark all the time
which shows he has developed feelings for her.

Trailers for Episodes 7 and 10 contains funny scenes.

Did MZH say her father consumed herbal medicines to keep him fit? Lord Ding was offended!

Episode 10- did MZH say she admired Lord Ding?

She won't agree because she will become a court official from the opening trailer.

In Episode 6, the FL expresses her concern on missing the imperial exam. The ML promises to support her for three years. The female lead continues with another concern if she will forever not pass the imperial exam, he promises to support her for the rest of her life.

That is the hint towards the direction of their future relationship.

I like that part.

ML = 30 years old
FL = at least 18 years old because she is a female graduate

Agree. I never liked JT's previous dramas but this one, she's good.

It's C-dramas. I am puzzled by the obsession over kissing. Under water kiss? It's not even in this drama plot.

The dubbing is decent unlike The Romance of the Twin Flower where the FL's dubbing totally destroyed the entire drama. I dropped it because I just couldn't stand the dubbing and cutie/ silly acts by the FL.

Dubbing for the ML is OK. Absence of cutie acts makes this drama entertaining as well as the pace is good.

Agree.

Agree. No cutie acts make a lot of difference,

This drama is worth watching. No cutie acts from the female leads. The pace is smooth. The ML and FL have a chemistry.

I've never liked Jing Tian's dramas but this one is changing my perception on her as I wish to watch another episode after completing one.

For those who wish to embark on a new series while waiting for LYS S2, The Legend of Zhuohua,
is good to try. Good script and no cutie acts so far from the FL.

Yhe ML is a good actor but the FL didn't leave a good impression on me. So, I kind of skipped her scenes.

Thank you for the info but the subsequent info about LXY is confusing.

This one is better than TTEOTM because it has more subplots.

I still prefer Xuan Yuan Zhuan Xu.
