To whoever mentioned chapter 152 from the novel, thank you so much! I haven't had a laugh like this in a long while!

I saw this in Blossoms in Adversity.

You are enjoying it as a "guilty pleasure", make fun of it and then are puzzled when people are offended? Is this your first day on the internet?

They filmed from the beginning of December 2024 to the beginning of April 2025. It's not their fault the weather and Mother Nature didn't cooperate.

It's art. Maybe you should stick to documentaries if you cannot enjoy dramas because they are "disconnected from the physical reality".

She is 5 and has been through a lot of traumatic experiences.

The heat index is a popularity indicator for the platform- we do not know exactly how it's calculated and each platform has their own formula.

Yunhe Data provides authoritative daily, weekly, and annual rankings for Chinese drama and variety show viewership, focusing on "effective views" and market share across major platforms like Tencent, iQIYI, and Youku.

Edit
Regarding Yunhe data, PoJ is already in 3rd place with 50.9%, after The Knockout (67.9%) and Joy of Life S2 (55%).

Plus, it's a very harmful stereotype that has hurt women for centuries. I hate the stories where "the love of a good woman changes a bastard/psycho into a good man". You cannot change another person against their will and shouldn't take on that challenge or responsibility. It's up to the person in question to change if they desire to do so.

As an aside, that is why I love Pride And Prejudice - Elizabeth made Mr Darcy aware of his shortcomings and he was the one who decided he wanted to change ... and he didn't do it because he wanted to try again later since he didn't think he would get another shot with her.

Zhang Linghe has made history as the first male actor born after 1995 to surpass 10,000 views on China's top streaming platforms, iQIYI, Youku, and Tencent Video.
This remarkable feat is celebrated by fans as the "Triple Platform Grand Slam."
The success is largely due to the outstanding viewership of three dramas: "StoryOfKunningPalace," "ThePrincessRoyal," and "PursuitOfJade," with "PursuitOfJade" breaking industry records by exceeding 10,000 views on two platforms at the same time (Tencent and iQIYI).

Key Accomplishments of the Triple Platform Grand Slam;
- iQIYI: In 2023, he took on the role of Xie Wei in "StoryOfKunningPalace," which garnered over 10,000 views; in 2026, "PursuitOfJade" also achieved over 10,000 views during its concurrent airing.
- Youku: In 2024, he played Pei Wenxuan in "ThePrincessRoyal," which also reached over 10,000 views.
-Tencent Video: In 2026, "PursuitOfJade" hit a record high viewership of over 30,000, establishing a new annual benchmark for the platform.

Consequently, Zhang Linghe stands out as the only actor born in 1995 to have three television series with over 10,000 views across all three major platforms, accomplishing this in a mere 843 days.

The screenwriter wrote the scripts for LLTG and POJ.

Someone related to the Sui brothers, no doubt about it!

There is a kiss there, I saw videos of the scene when they were filming.

The expression is very old, gen z were not the first to use it.

21, he is 3 years older (he was 5 when the massacre happened, she was 2). He grew up as an orphan from a very young age so he doesn't want to lose another person he loves.

I found this article.
PoJ is #2 heat index in iQiyi history. I think it might surpass The Knockout once the express episodes drop

Heat index a couple of hours ago was 10460+

The FL stole a high-value hostage from the military camp and exchanged him without informing the army. He isn't the only one making stupid decisions.

As I said in a comment yesterday, both characters are young adults without a fully developed prefrontal cortex and it shows.

Do they include fantasy or just historical in the statistic? Which is the #1 iQiyi costume drama from the last 4 years from the heat index?

She stole the hostage from the military camp. There's a war going on, martial law applies to all.

Because she exchanged a hostage without orders and without informing any superiors? She did not have the capacity to make such decisions in the marquis' army.
