He wasn't forced to marry. He made a choice to save himself by marrying into the Yu family.

There are people in rea life who chooses the easier path then feel as if they are victimised. I see it now amongst people I meet. Then they justify their actions using that as an excuse. So " nah " not feeling sorry.

And oh yeah if you don't expressly say something to the girl its a one side love. So " nah. " No guts no glory.

Yeah what the heck do people think the chambermaids are? And childhood betrothals. The men married when they were boys. Those older females are brutal. I can't even watch the torture scenes by women. They are worse than men.

I didn’t want to tell her/him my grandfather had 4 wives and it was openly acknowledged. So did other relatives. The family was rich enough to afford it. And I am not even living during the Ming Dynasty.

Then you better not watch historical dramas then. Its a lie if a Cdrama potrays a single man.

He is supposed to be younger in age but they used an older actor.

A mistress is the same as a concubine to me. He is above 20 years old.

I respect your opinion just stating some common historical drama themes. I am also used to multiple wives culturally. I don’t agree with it but its not an unknown concept.

I have to google this series. I am on ep u and its so much talking. Then fighting. Then talking. Then fighting.

I am not sure how much longer I can last. I can't even work out if there is a plot worth talking about.

Boring. Boring. Boring.

Troll. Troll. Troll.

I see him alone in the beginning OST. I assume he will be alone. There is no romance tag.

I am on ep 5 now and just started this today.

The fight scenes are fine. Sorta. The camerawork is a bit clunky. I am commenting because I wasn't expecting it to be having funny angles, close ups etc.

I literally cannot work out why this wuxia feels so disjointed. I am not even expecting any romance because there is no romance tags. He is also shown alone in both beginning and ending.

Is that Hao girl alright? She is a bit dense isn't she?

Different vibes. However based on the current epiaodes I have watched- that ML is confident and supportive. He doesn't have the looks I like but completely suited to the role and the main couple have chemistry.

I need a break man after a 45 episode marathon. There was a lot of plotting in that drama. I have to remember who crossed who and what happened.

Can I start watching again? I stopped at ep 25.

I have marathoned The Story of Ming Lan from ep 1-45 over the weekend. I am emotionally wrung out.

I need a payback if I watched todays episodes or wait till ep 40 airs.

Otherwise would head over to the Yang Yang dramas.

I think I have ODed over stepmothers. I cannot even remember what JZ's father and stepmother looks like. Its evil, bitchy, underhanded, killing, torture, dying or unrequited female leads.... from 2 dramas. I am literally drained as a viewer.

There's Gu, Chen, Ye here. Then there is Gu, Sheng, Qing, Yan, Liang, Wen and who else? Both fathers are officials. I am getting the Ministry they are in mixed up. This GJZ has the 3rd sister and brother? The other has the 4th and 5th sister?

See? I am getting my dramas mixed up.

That's hilarious in a non- funny way. He is such a goner.

The story of Ming Lan. I am now ep 26 and the main couple are nowhere near the flirting stage.

However the brisk storytelling pace is phenomenal. Its a 2018 drama and looks set to become not my favourite drama but certainly in the top 5 for welll written ensemble cast drama.

3 years morning has passed. When? In ep 1? 15.

Gosh I am skipping ep 26. Episode 27 and 28 looks very heavy. I might even not watch till ep 30 airs so I can get beyond the red and white scenes.

Its long man. I don't watch long dramas so being on ep 6 is killing me. I watched ep 63-65 to check out the vibes and liked it enough to check out from ep 1.

Episode 11 is just the right balance and break. I am returning to ep 6 and
onwar
d this
week
end.

I will tell you though that this drama has an absolute gem. The kid playing the King. My god he is phenomenal for his age. His acting is superb.

I like it. There.

I have an opinion and have no time to whine. I am also starting The Story of Ming Lan and My Royal Nemesis

I like my balance of drama life. Some light. One crazy. One super long 73 episodes.

So different tastes for different viewers.

I am on ep 5 now. How old is Gu Ting Ye because he looks like a man. Did he also just get a mistress? Vs a concubine?

I am trying to work out how Qi Heng fits into the whole picture with the bitchy 4th sister.

Hi. I won't want specific spoilers and even big spoilers.

I just want to know if there is drama every moment till the end from the novel. Yes I know its different especially for the half sister and cousin.

I have finished ep 25. I wasn't expecting the fallout from 2 secondary male characters.

I mean I know that the wedding is this Sunday.... I want happy wedding prep and sweet coy moments.

I am tensed up instead waiting for Ye Xian's big meltdown and confrontation. Then add on the engaged adopted nephew. Or the adopted nephew who is engaged. You know who I mean.

The old fart hadn't even been taken down yet. The Hu guy, the sea route etc.

No I actually am enjoying the early episodes. I am not there for the romance. I am enjoying the household politics.

I was thinking she was going to have a coronarybecause she was so frustrated.
