I only watch first 10 episodes and last 4 episodes. So dark… the plot and the acting is a 6/10 for me

Palace cats fight story are very common in Cdrama. Several really popular one are below
Raise the Red Lantern
Story of Yanxi Palace
Story of Yanxi Palace
The Palace
Ruyi’s Royal Love in the Palace
Empresses in the Palace
The Empress of China

Not quite understand

Ahhh… so sad. I expect Cantonese but looks like a mainland Mandarine speaking short film

Kind of funny. She is not even that fat

Not exactly sure what is the role of the female lead in this short film

Can somebody put the photo of his friend who did drug on the cast list?

Ya, this drama gets very popular back then. It was a great production and great acting overall.

Yu Kai was only 23 yo just starting his filming career. He wasn’t the main male lead at Yanxi Palace, but got lots of fans attention due to his good look. Wu Jin Yan was the main male lead on both drama.

It is good ending for the main leads. Palace cat fights caused several supporting casts death is inevitable. Can’t find this type of high quality production anymore. Same producer “Yu Zhang”

Did Liu Yu Ning sang the OST?

Royal Feast
Mr Queen (Korean)
Jewel in the Palace (Korean)
The Crowned Clown
Red Sleeve

Mee too. I miss this kind of high quality supreme production old drama. Good old drama never left us

The number of episodes scared me first too. Had put this on hold for awhile until after I watch “The Double”. I want more of Wu Jin Yan. I didn’t regret watching this drama. It is solid, real deal, beautifully production, award winning drama. The story and the acting is like a magnet in this drama. You don’t see this kind of real historical drama make anymore

If you like Wu Jin Yan, you should watch her other epic drama “The Double” and “Royal Feast”

Tubi and Viki has good sub

Lots of Xu Kai’s fans were upset how his character ended here. Hence, XuKai and the FL WJY cast in another drama after this called “Royal Feast” check it out. XuKai gets to be emperor there.

If you like the FL acting, after watching this, try “The Double” a nicely done revenge drama, then watch another epic palace slow burn but very elegant high quality drama called “Story of Yanxi River”

Chinese drama—- “The Double”, “Story of Yanxi Palace”, “The Ideal City” “New Life Begins” “Royal Feast”
Korean drama—- “Mr Queen” “The Flower of Evil” “The Judge from Hell” “Vagabond”

Somehow, I couldn’t finished any of Zhou!usi’s drama. I mean she is pretty, I like to watch her on the stage singing and dancing, so hot. I like to see her play more mature role in future. Anyway, for this FL, I found myself keep saying her lips so small and the nose pull the upper lips up … but I like her acting
