How can he get rid of Qiao when he loses his wife ShiYi (FL)? If he divorces his wife, wouldn't one of his concubine be upgraded as his wife? Or will he get another legal wife?
Considering drama "minglan" needs 40eps from 69 to see the leads got married, it might see their relationship…
I cannot believe that the Marquis/General wants to divorce Shi Yi, considering he came to fall in love with her and enjoys her company the most. On top of that, I saw previews showing Shi Yi in prison and going to be hanged. I think this C-drama will be worst than the Story of Ming Lan but slightly better than Yangxi Palace. In Yangxi Palace, the FL suffered a lot before she managed to snare the Emperor's affection - she had so many scheming concubines and royal consorts to fight with, and plus the Emperor's was initially prejudice against her. It took me 3-4 tries to finally finished that drama; it was hard watching the abuses the FL got. Why does almost all historical C-dramas have tragic storylines? I was hoping for a not-so-tragic C-drama with this one. Sigh... LOL...
Sure! so finally the bandit leader was captured and was given to Master Qin for interrogation so bandit leader…
Thank you for the spoiler. Even though it breaks my heart that it is not the happy ending I was expecting, I am not sure if I can wait for Season 2. I will remember this drama for the happy times for the 1st half of the show, when Ning Yi was happy with his Tan'Er and just earning money for her.
I cannot believe I actually binge watched this C-drama up to 18 episodes. This drama is so good that I cannot stop watching and it is addictive as well as entertaining. Some viewers find it slow but for me, it is at the right pace because the drama has to establish the backgrounds of all the key characters. And the production is of high quality. The sets and clothes are exquisite and I love the architecture and décor of the General's mansion. This is my first time watching Wallace Chung and even though I thought he was kind of dense (maybe that's his acting) but later I grow to appreciate him. I knew Seven Tan from her "Under The Power" drama and I loved her then. Hopefully, this drama will get better and better as more episodes are aired.
I am only watching this drama as a filter while waiting for upcoming episodes from "My Heroic Husband". I think this drama is slowly growing on me, but I am also annoyed that the ML always suspect the FL of doing not good. What kind of investigator is he to assume someone guilty until proven innocent? At this rate, there is no justice for the innocent... LOL
I noticed that lately most of the Chinese historical dramas are using the same drama/studio set venues (the mansions, town plazas, shops by the canals, etc.) for most dramas I have watched in the last 1 year (for example: My Sweet Liar, Romance of Tiger and Rose, etc.). Same goes for this new drama. I would get nostalgic when I recall the past dramas... LOL
I posted this separately so that people who are curious could get their answer, but my opinion isn't generally…
I agree with you that the palace politics/intrigues are not so great here and does not seem to fit into this drama. Plus I don't understand why the Emperor looks highly to that Minister He (dodgy evil looking minister); the Emperor has several capable competent Ministers and Prime Ministers, and yet he is undecisive when it comes to protecting his country. I bet it was that evil Minister that informed and paid the bandits to capture Lin'An city because he didn't want the troops to be sent to the north. I bet he is a secret spy from the enemy state up north.
Ep 19 and 20 was a bit anti climatic for me.. I thought he would come up with a better plan to tackle the bandits…
I agree with you. Where did ML get that bow and arrow? It looked modern too. Did he invent it and brought it to Lin'An city? But I didn't see it. Quite a lot of things don't make sense in Episodes 19 and 20. Maybe I should just turn off my brain while watching this drama...LOL...
I love the ML's affection, protectiveness and cute jealousy towards his wife. But I wonder when did he have the time to buy her a new house in the new city, Lin'An?
This drama is looking to be on the top of my rewatch list because I’ve watched all 12 episodes twice and i can’t…
I did the same thing. While waiting for the new episodes, I would re-watch the episodes more than 3 - 4 x, usually the scenes of the main couple, where they are so cute and sweet together. I have watched up to 14 episodes now, and I hope the drama stays fresh and interesting until the end.
I wonder if I should watch this C-drama. I am here looking for something fun and sweet and interesting because I am still suffering from heartbreak and withdrawal symptoms because of Mr. Queen, K-drama. I need a new fix drama to make me happy again.....hahaha...LOL... Plus, I like Sean Xiao Zhan from the Untamed.
With all the deleted scenes coming out now, plus the Spin-off episodes, I think they should do a Director's Cut version of this drama and include ALL the deleted scenes and spin-offs into proper parts of the drama to make a better version. I wonder if that is possible.... LOL
