Coming back to give my final thoughts after letting the drama sink in for a couple of hours.Overall, I enjoyed…
First, it's an adaptation. So I beg to differ, episode 13-26 is the reason why the angst is not draggy. Moreover, they are commanders. It's in their trainings to control their emotions. Li Shuang is not Empress Qin, who is selfish and only think of herself, not her people. Ao Deng is not Su Mu Li or Su Mu Yang. So, yeah.
I love this drama because the leads are in a mature relationship. I'll drop it if they prolong unnecessary angst like KMLM or TPG.
Do you watch what those dumb, selfish ministers said in episode 33? They didn't want peace. They wanted to conquer…
You need to see it from minister's POV to understand them. They lost the first war because Li Shuang let Ao Deng go. It's a capital crime to free the enemy, even after stabbing the grand general. Ao Deng was the one helped his country won that war.
The death of grand general was not Li Shuang fault, but they lost again because Li Shuang freed Ao Deng in the first place.
Su Mu Yang's plan is great, though. He knows Ao Deng loves Li Shuang and will do anything to get her body. He bets everything for the peace between two kingdoms.
Now, if you think the plot is not plotting, how do you want the drama deals with Li Shuang's crime? Or how do you think the best way to wrap this drama?
Please add the spoiler tag to your comment. :)From what I see, some of the conversations have underlying contexts…
Yep. We shouldn't forget that Lu Xin was mourning. She'd just lost her best friend. I believe she's not only blaming Ao Deng, but also herself. She could have saved Li Shuang if she and Mo Yin take her to Wuling Mountain.
Agree. She has just lost a friend, she doesn't want to lose Jin An, too.
How is this worse than Legend of the Female General? I'm out after the second episode. In the first episode, we…
You gotta be kidding. You judge a 38-episodes drama after watching 2 episodes?
He used the mask when he was in a battlefield, not in front of his soldiers. And the mask was the most important part in the drama. Shadow Love is not Shadow Love without it.
And, I beg to differ, Shadow Love is way better than LOTFG. π
Watched that scene and it's hilarious to watch him getting wrapped around his wife's fingers, unintentionally…
It's normal because many things happen in the drama. I can't forget the library scene because I love Song Yi's OST in the background. Happy rewatching~
The first 6 episodes were AMAZING. Personally, the story was great. The idea of double identities, political warfare,…
Li Shuang met her equal. They shared the same belief in many things, even I would fall in love with my equal despite he's a stranger. They'll repeat the same method later on. π

It's in episode 8. Li Shuang said this when Jin An showed her a scroll about her, "In fact, not only do I love eating children, I also like eating fair-skinned young men." π

No dragging misunderstanding. It's a mature romance.
It's a satisfying happy ending.
It even happened in my carefully edited chapters. I was confident there was no typo, but the readers spotted it. LOL.
But loovvee this couple. They save the day later!
This drama has a very satisfying happy ending, like the "other one" you mention up there.
The drama is sooo good in provoking our emotions, causing us to be biased to FL. But I always on her side. π
It's a rom-com, but mostly mocking C-dramas tropes in a fun way. You won't regret giving this drama a try. Happy watching~
