This is the 1st drama that I love the Emperor, Empress and Consort all together.
The Empress and the Consort differently have their own understanding and tolerance for each other. They definitely see each other as sister wives.
We usually see all the children only refer to the Empress as mother , but the children from both of them call them mother and infront of each other too.
Oh gosh, I feel like episode 18 is one of the saddest scenes I have seem so far this year. I want to cry and it's only 26 minutes into the episode. ðŸ˜ðŸ˜ðŸ˜ðŸ˜ðŸ˜ðŸ˜ðŸ˜ðŸ˜ðŸ˜ðŸ˜ðŸ˜ðŸ˜
I have been watching Cdramas, kdramas, Thai dramas & Turkish dramas.
But Episode 18. I'm ready for their mortal adventure.
Jenny Zhang really acts villainous characters well . I hated her in Yanxi Palace and Ancient Love Poetry. Her acting as Wu Huan was so good. Didn't like her from the 1st episode she appeared until the end.
Re-watching for the 3rd time and I still love this drama. Fight scenes and CGI was top notch. Loved the colours of the set, costumes and ost.
Today's episodes revealed so much about the characters. Episode 23 was pretty hilarious, especially with CSS in…
Yes, the drama really makes the mother daughter relationship so much more worst. I know they want to show part 2 with the empress but damn... They really have her suffering.
CSS mother is really out of order and line. However I wonder why the writers decided that CSS should be suffering ALL the time because of her mother.
They missed 2 opportunity to try and mind this mother & daughter relationship & to give her some measure of peace & get a more positive outlook on like.
When the mother was sick, she looked after her really well & it was the turning point of their relationship. But no they brought in cousin again & widened the gap between them.
Now here again when the proposal they made them so get so angry with each other. I was really looking forward to them going back home; her being hungry and eating with the parents & brothers brainstorming how they could get out of the marriage. Not this big showdown.
I wonder why many Cdramas almost always have to have mothers and daughters at odds with each other. Can't we get some loving supportive mom's.
I'm re-watching ep 4 & 2nd Aunt & old Lady Cheng were really cruel.
To basically ambush a new mother with her child & force such a foolish superstitious belief on a baby was insane. Cheng Shi was the only sensible 1 among all 3 women. But Yuanyi I still could not accept her decision. Stay in the mansion with both babies and then find a way to leave when she would have rested & healed. As it's highly unlikely she could have gone to fight to save Huo; as she was weak after giving birth.
But Ge was really heartless that even after Lady Cheng passed her calamity she still made her keep that child from her parents. So after over 10 years of separation it's really the parents fault for neglecting and abandoning Naio Naio.
There is a lot of problems with how this show treats its main heroine, mainly how we should think of her as being…
I see it as the opposite. From episode 1 she has never been perfect nor a daddies girl. She is bad tempered, a little rude, sneaky, sweet & nice and funny. Plus she whole heartedly believes in an eye for an eye (which I like). As for being a daddies girl she has been living without her father since she was born it's only now that the parents have come back for a longer time that she is getting any attention from her father. She is getting love and attention that she has missed for more than 10 years. She nearly died also, because of neglect. This is what she deserves and should have had since she was born.
Since in the Drama she is a Smart Female lead she should be taking really good decisions then why did she decided…
She didn't really grow up being scheming or calculative. As for her marrying Lou Yao, she is aware that in the time that she is living in it's better for her to marry someone that genuinely likes her and that she likes and respects. Plus remember she told her mother that they plan to move away from his family when he gets an official post.
Also she can't really read, write nor is good in the 4 arts. So even though she has a good family background she isn't someone that other families would jumb to marry in. So I understand her settling because she is thinking that she might not get a better offer.
Her line of thinking is more sad than anything else. We as the audience see nothing wrong with her character, but it isn't one that many people liked for young women in that time.
Many are disappointed that we didn't get a wedding but I just knew they wouldn't have one.
This is now one of my absolute favourites loved each episode from 1 to 56.
It just goes to show as long as your partner has your back no need to fear outside interference.
But when the family has your back nothing can stop you & your partner.
The best Royal family to date. If only so many of their kids weren't idiots.
CSS mom giving a smack down
Big entrance by the family.
CSS best friends fast reaction and then her reactions to the rest of the showdown.
Consort Yue smack down once again
And CSS standing up for herself with grace, dignity and a whole lot of CONFIDENCE.
Royal Uncle is a whole mood.
Dispelling Evil finally.
😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘
Every time Consort Yue is on screen I get excited.
The Empress and the Consort differently have their own understanding and tolerance for each other. They definitely see each other as sister wives.
We usually see all the children only refer to the Empress as mother , but the children from both of them call them mother and infront of each other too.
Also these 2 women have such different personalities, Empress is calm , soft spoken and peace keeper.
Consort Yue is bold, outspoken and kind too.

I have been watching Cdramas, kdramas, Thai dramas & Turkish dramas.
But Episode 18.
I'm ready for their mortal adventure.
I know the stories are different but I really loved Bai Jue devotion to Shang Gu.
Episode 18 really showed how much he loved her. ðŸ˜ðŸ˜ðŸ˜ðŸ˜
Re-watching for the 3rd time and I still love this drama. Fight scenes and CGI was top notch. Loved the colours of the set, costumes and ost.
Loved Cu Kai and Zhou Dong You acting also.
I know they want to show part 2 with the empress but damn... They really have her suffering.
🤷🤷

I really hope they do a better job in part 2.

They should have collected their daughter.
