Just how many episodes did you watch?

While Xu Kai may be vein (according to these pics), he can never be accused of being vain.

Fun with homophones!

Which actor? What role did he play?

100% correct. Absolutely!

I don't revisit Court Lady often. 😐

I do love Xu Kai's role(s) in ALP, but he has so many great ones that I have a hard time picking a favorite. Depends on my mood.🥰

Let's move Wonderland of Love up on the list. Give it your #1 vote.

Ancient Love Poetry is on the second page. I'm surprised it has fewer votes than Court Lady.

Moonlit Reunion made it on the list!

2, 4, 5, 6 and on and on. (Sorry. Too lazy to type their names.)

Most have it included in their bios.

One does not assure the other. There are lots of talented actors who aren't professional singers.

There's absolutely no one like him.

So much time was devoted to the snakes, Mei Si, and Book Boy, but Mei Zhuyu was rarely onscreen and his final scenes were rushed and difficult to follow.

Unlike Xu Kai's current promotional campaign, Less Is Not More with regards to Mei Zhuyu.

Although these false allegations have made Xu Kai's life hell, the fact that he got through them and handled it impeccably will strengthen his position if he's looking to move to another agency. He's also in a better bargaining position if he chooses to stay.

Further attacks by Yu Zheng won't have the same effect as they did a few months ago. He'll just look bitter once it's announced that Xu Kai is leaving.

I just watched the first 10 episodes of seasons 1 and 3 of Strange Tales of Tang Dynasty on iQiyi. From what I can gather, the two male leads in Tiandu are very different from the Tang drama in terms of background, abilities, and their relationship to each other. And no red-nosed comic-relief 🙄 physician.

Weirdly, one of the Tang series' ML's is named Su Wuming. The Tiandu leads are Shi Wuming and Su Xue Lou.🤔

I'm not usually drawn to this particular genre of Chinese drama as I've had it in abundance via Western entertainment for decades. But Xu Kai's participation makes it a must-watch for me. ❤️

What I'm saying is that a number of Xu Kai's dramas would be a lot shorter if his ML character were truly the focus of the drama.

I am not commenting on the number of episodes of his upcoming dramas.

The men are just jealous 😘

I wasn't sure if his father had already transferred it to her before the adult Mei Zhuyu showed up. Thanks for the clarification!

Regarding the demon infant, did the celestial masters transfer it from her to him? Or was it done in the past?

Could you say more about this? I'm curious.🤔

What I'm saying is that there are Xu Kai dramas that contain so much filler that have nothing to do with his character, they could be reduced by many, many episodes.

Moonlit Reunion is the latest example.

Side stories are fine, but a lead character shouldn't disappear or be relegated to a few minutes of screentime in an episode.

"Mei Si and His Adventures With the Snake Family" could have been its own drama.

I might need to read that novel.😀

In any other drama, you report it to the emperor directly. Worrying about who leaked it is less important than being prepared the next time you fight. The Weis walked in blind and were destroyed. It was vital to acknowledge they had the weapons, and not how they got them.

Other than this contrivance, I'm enjoying the drama (currently on episode 12).
