That revenge stuff crammed into the last few episodes was kinda odd. The ending of a drama is supposed to tie…
Apart from being an event of peace and forgiveness of Cheng Shao Shang to LBY, actually the WYJ incident is a form of resolving the conflict in the Luo family that has emerged since part 1. Where in the end the entire first family of Luo who always oppressed the second family of Luo ended up on the WYJ's hand. This incident also illustrates that in every relationship, especially couples, it is necessary to have reciprocal openness and mutual trust. Husband and wife are union, so it should go side by side. There is no reason to leave one or another for good reasons, because it is just a form of irony and escape from adulthood. Whatever problems that come, as complex and big as anything should be faced together, looking for a win-win solution well balanced.
Luo Ben loves his wife WYJ very much, and vice versa. However he was blinding by ambition, he had strayed down the wrong path by deceiving the emperor. But he didn't stop his mistakes there, even though Zisheng was willing to ask for forgiveness to emperor but Luo Ben chose suicide as a shortcut. Due to his life would be feel as meaningless when the path to his ambition could never be achieved again. Luo Ben, who has been abandon WYJ, doesn't realize that his life is the breath of WYJ. His selfishness made WYJ lose her way, so she neglected to take care of Lou Ben's child who was still in the womb. She choose to commit a more fatal mistake than Lou Ben itself by betraying the country, and go down a bloody path to avenge everyone.
On the other side LBY also has been made the same mistake as Lou Ben, he got blinded by the ambition of revenge against Marquis Chengyang for the murder of his biological father and the massacre of the entire city of Gu. But LBY is lucky to have Shaoshang, who already despite being abandoned, but keep trying her best to save him. Shaoshang was also the one who had restored LBY's original identity as HBY, also resolved all the problems related to the red birthday party at the Ling residence and the mystery of the city of Gu. And time over time LBY finally realized all his mistakes (not just regretness).
In addition, the WYJ incident also sheds light on the plans for Tian Shuo rebellion.
Actually, LBY came to escort CP in land inspection to replace General Cheng's duties. So it's only natural that when problems arise, General Cheng and his family come to help, because Cheng Song himself is a military man and he has also received help from LBY to crush enemies from Shu. Moreover, before Shaoshang went to Hua County with Lou Li, she had told his older brother Cheng Shaogong to be on guard and that she would be back after dinner. Because it was not unusual for Shaogong to finally find out that his sister was in trouble and bring reinforcements to follow her with her family and their troops to Guo Village.
As a woman from a military family I think it's very natural that YY can ride horses, between YY and Shaoshang themselves have been separated for a long time, more or less 5 years. In addition YY is also the wife of a noble. She didn't take part in the battle, but she and her husband helped Shaoshang to put out the fire.
One of the things I love about this drama is how the internal conflicts within the palace related to the throne are resolved humanely. Unlike stories about royal politics in general, which seems like humans become cursed creatures when it comes of everything which have related to the throne. A father or brother has amenable to viciously remove his own child or blood relative for the throne. There is a conflict of interest, but it is packaged by well-educating, enlightening and conscienting. This changed my view of the royal family completely. Not everything has to be solved by shedding blood, especially if it is a relative himself. What a human being will become depends on their individual choices. Politics is necessary, but back to the good intentions, sincerity and conscience of the implementers. Politics will be good if humans as intelligent beings use their resources and conscience in harmony.

This misunderstanding, perhaps it's caused, by audiences which sees that General Ling's way of fighting is just…
so do i, I am also not an expert at all / have a background for in-depth knowledge of Wuxia, Xianxia or Xuanxua.
From various sources I have compiled, it is explained that Wuxia (武俠 wǔxiá) – literally means “Martial Heroes”. Fictional stories about regular humans who can achieve supernatural fighting ability through Chinese martial arts training and internal energy cultivation. They belong to the superhuman level with supernatural powers, but not magical power or enter the realm of the level of the gods. Meanwhile Xianxia (仙侠 xiānxiá) – literally means “Immortal Heroes”. Fictional stories featuring magic, demons, ghosts, immortals, and a great deal of Chinese folklore/mythology. Protagonists (usually) attempt to cultivate to Immortality, seeking eternal life and the pinnacle of strength. Heavily inspired by Daoism.
The Simple Comparison: If Wuxia is “low fantasy”, then Xianxia is “high fantasy”.
Although Xianxia is a newer genre and is essentially a 'fantasy-fied' version of Wuxia, but the biggest contributor to the Xianxia genre is actually not martial arts; rather, it is ‘Taoism’, which is a major part of Chinese history. Taoism is both a philosophical way of life as well as an actual religion. Religious Taoism is often blurred together with Chinese folk mythologies, and is chock-full of stories about demons, ghosts, and people learning how to become immortals through meditation/understanding the ways of heaven, and flying in the air and casting powerful magic spells.
E.g: The legendary Monkey King, Sun Wukong (whom Son Goku of DBZ is based off of) acquired his power through Taoist practices, and the concept of the Yin-Yang is also from Taoism. Xianxia blends lots of these folk stories and magical Taoist legends into their stories in a way which ‘true’ Wuxia stories almost never do.
And this may be the same case with the link above, wheres actually wuxia is based on real-life martial arts, but the genre elevates the mastery of their crafts into fictitious levels of attainment, as 'Fantastic' martial art. Meanwhile, martial arts itself focuses on unarmed combat, sometimes venturing into improvised. Present "realistic" (though not always real) fights you can easily imagine actually happening.
Be it the martial art, wuxia, xianxia and xuanhua genres themselves, these labels appear because they have different element, type and specifications on their main story.
This misunderstanding, perhaps it's caused, by audiences which sees that General Ling's way of fighting is just…
Come on, not all audiences who come here will think first to find the definition of the drama genre outside the forum.
In general, they absorb what is in the details of the drama under the title. I don't even know where to look for the articles on MDL which explain wuxia, xianxia and xuanhuan that someone last year wrote (as you said). Honestly, I'm just a newbie here. And based on my experience, I usually only come to take a look at the title page of the drama I'm focused on. Join the comment section to share info and opinions.
Maybe this can be considered as a discourse, in the sense that it is for the sake of developing a better information system for users and fans of MDL forums.
This misunderstanding, perhaps it's caused, by audiences which sees that General Ling's way of fighting is just…
Yes. That's why I added 'even without gliding on water or blasting his superhuman energy'.
I think it's not even just ordinary people/audiences who experience a dilemma in determining the genre of a drama. Even on our beloved MDL forum, I tend to find a lot of ambiguity. Many dramas that should fall into the XianXia Genre category are given the Wuxia genre label. Meanwhile, XianXia is only placed on the tags.
And even the Xianxia and Xuanhuan genres seem to be labeled the same as Xianxia (sorry if I'm wrong, or maybe I didn't check carefully).
Why are there so many people calling this a Wuxia drama? People, this is NOT Wuxia! LOL.
This misunderstanding, perhaps it's caused, by audiences which sees that General Ling's way of fighting is just too breathtaking, even without gliding on water or blasting his superhuman energy. 🔥🧘♂️🔥

Her jade pendant with her nickname broke in half and LBY assumed the characters spelled out “RouRou” instead…

Really sorry, I haven't read the novel yet. If the novel tells about a setting in ancient times, the similarity in the theme of the story may be due to the author being inspired by the circumtances of the girls's lives at that time. Where children are forced to be abandoned by their parents/families because they have to go to war. And because the perspective on the patriarchal system of society is where women's values tend to be lower than the standard used for men, they are usually described as undervalued in the family.
