They've already watered down her character by not mentioning how ruthless she was with the creep's henchmen and by having CXZ show up to save the day during her meeting with the artist. I hope they don't exaggerate too much. Regarding CXZ, I understand why they made him goofier. They don't want the audience to hate him too much. I think that decision will undercut his character progression a bit.

She escaped the marriage because her father sold her for money after the family business started declining. As a bandit, she is a Robin Hood-like figure.

They seriously fought twice after she became Lu Wen. lol

They had an intense fight in the woods then passionately kissed afterwards. I hope the drama keeps that scene. lol

LMT will discover that CXZ has been deceiving her about his true identity, leading her to leave him. This is the first time CXZ will need to win her back.

Later, after they reconcile, get married, and have a son, LMT will suffer from amnesia once more. This time, she will forget all about their marriage and revert to her identity as Lu Wen, the bandit leader. The time will be more difficult as she regains her martial arts skills and develops an immediate hatred for him. But the drama might change some things.

No problem. Also, the drama might change a few things.

Yes. She regains all her memories at the very end. However, there's a twist to her amnesia. I can spoil it if you want.

He had to win her again twice, both times in different ways for different reasons. I don't know how much spoilers you want.

Sure. You can ask anything.

The female lead is Lu Wen, the male lead's mortal enemy. At some point, she will regain her memories.

Do you want spoilers? Lol

Yea lol

He gets her again and again. lol

Yes, she is Lu Wen. The drama did a very poor job managing this interesting twist. In the novel, they did a better job hiding this from the readers. These adaptations are never as good as their respective source materials.

I’m guessing this is after her second amnesia . In the novel, she never stabbed the ML. However, they dueled twice. The second duel could be one of hottest scenes in CDrama history if they adapt it well. I doubt they will. lol

We don’t know if they changed that part yet.

Cui Jiu is the merchant Mian Tang was supposed to marry. He’s a non-factor in the novel. There is on big separation and another short one.

As long as they can make the emotional scenes impactful, I'll be happy.

You made a valid point. But I prefer the cold CXZ who got slowly infected by LMT and became whipped for her yet still retained his balls as man. lol

All of the versions of LMT are badasses. I hope the drama doesn't undercut her too much. Two scenes made me worry that they might do that.
