I got interested too and found this text about the context of the novel:
"He Yan was a natural-born star general. She served as a substitute for her elder brother, engaging in battles for many years, pacifying the Western Qiang, subduing the Southern Barbarians. However, when her elder brother’s illness improved, she accomplished her military feats and retired, marrying someone.
After marriage, she didn’t receive her husband’s love and suffered from a strange illness, losing her sight. A beautiful concubine stood before her, speaking gently, “That medicine to blind your poisonous eyes was personally sent by your family’s elders. Only the dead wouldn’t leak secrets, but you, being alive, pose a great threat to them!”
A renowned general, a heroine, met her end in the hands of ignorant and jealous women in the inner chambers. How absurd!
Upon waking up, she found herself as the daughter of a military officer in the training grounds, delicate and spoiled, with youthful exuberance.
They wanted her military achievements, sought her life, controlled her troops, and trampled her affections! In this new life, she was determined to reclaim everything she had lost. She called upon the world, achieved fame with her beauty, and shook the Nine Provinces!
As profound as a military camp, deep like the sea. Right from the beginning, she encountered her nemesis from her previous life—the young general known for “conquering all with his sharp edge and overwhelming might.”
A cool female general and a wolf-like boy with explosive temper, the setting of two generals together.
stepbrother, heyan's mom is mr he sec wife(i thought like that)
Isn't a step brother someone who is not blood related to you at all? So is Mr He not FL's father? If they have the same dad it should be sister/half-sister, but I saw the subtitles say step sister so I though he was changed or adopted or something.
Can someone explain what use is the self-censoring they did for the latter half of the drama? I read they didn't have to as an international company, but did it to protect the actors. But is there any use because the first half already had all that same stuff? Will it actually help the actors, that the number of steamy scenes is less since those scenes are there anyway? Or did it just make them lose part of their hard work.
I'm on ep 11 and really enjoying this drama so far, but I'm afraid to continue after reading the comments that last ten eps are censored... It's so sad that they felt like they have to do it.
the doctor said 孩子保不住了 the baby cannot be saved she is too weak so since she’ll have a miscarriage…
This, and I'll also add that before FL drank the medicine her made asked her if she has to do it this way, and she said that because she can't keep it anyway (doctor said she will miscarriage) she might as well do it like this. And when she later explained to the ML the literal translation would have been that it's not that she did not want the baby, it's that she couldn't keep it (again meaning the doctor's words). Later even the doctor himself mentioned it to the ML. So it was very clear the baby would not have survived anyway.
Can someone tell me what the story is ? I don't want to watch it without knowing the full story
FL and ML think they are siblings but are already in love, not acting on it though. ML is a the son of the main wife and FL daughter of a concubine. The main wife treats FL super bad and tries to get her killed because she can see her son is in love with the FL. Later FL gets full on revenge mode and also finds out who her real parents are, so they are not related. FL plots and gets revenge, ML follows her complete in love, and sometimes they make out. There is also a side plot where a prince is trying to rebel and kill ML, who works for the crown prince. A lot of stuff happens and many people turn bad and our main couple suffer, but it's a happy ending.
