Of course it is, but Orchid already knows that and is trying to change the meaning of the personal pronoun 'we' in an attempt to win the argument.

What an absurd non-argument.. You don't get to change the meaning of words so you can win the argument. And talking about 'conceptual', try to grasp the concept of the personal pronoun 'we' .

Then you need to complete that sentence, because that's not what the pronoun 'we' alone means.

No, there isn't a separate meaning to the personal pronoun 'we' unless you add a qualifing/specifing word, locution or sentence. You don't get to change the meaning of words so you can win the argument.

You caught feelings, you fancy him, that's ok. LOL.

Speak for yourself! I hate that use of the royal "we", who are you to speak for others? I for one completely disagree with your comment, I love wuxia and xianxia dramas and am all for aesthetic presentation. Give me beautiful people and gorgeous costumes any time.

I suspect they secretly fancy him. Well, not so secretly anymore. LOL

The funny thing is he actually shows masculine vigour, the difference is he does it effortlessly and without turning into an orc. His fighting scenes are awesome, he's the one man his super strong wife cannot defeat in combat, he stands by his principles, he takes orders from nobody including the uncle who raised him and he threatens to depose the emperor when the eunuch arrives with a decree to marry him to the royal princess. I can't imagine how much more manly they want him to be.

Jealous much? 😏

I'm going to have a guess about those 'hidden' reasons for their displeasure. An army general accepting a matrilocal marriage without feeling his masculinity threatened? His wife defeating in combat and killing the biggest and fiercest brute of a general in the enemy army? His wife shining in her own victorious parade and him being so happy and proud of her?

If any or all of the above are their 'hidden' reasons, either they are a very misogynistic bunch or they have a very fragile/insecure masculinity. Or both.

Dear Chinese military,

Watching a fictional drama and then bitching on Weibo about the ML actor is not the display of masculinity you think it is.

You are welcome.

'I did not like how they never gave the ML’s character any teeth'. Really? Well, when the emperor sent his arrogant eunuch with a decree for the ML forcing him to marry the royal princess, his response was: "Tell the emperor if he doesn't want to sit on the throne I can easily find someone else to take his place. Seventeen years ago Wei Yan helped him onto the dragon throne. Today, I can easily pull him down". Then the ML sent the arrogant eunuch back, minus one ear he cleanly cut off when said arrogant eunuch tried to lecture him . No teeth, huh? I take it you didn't watch that episode. I rewatched that scene alone at least 5 times, simply superb. Ep 32, starting at 09:30. Magnificent performances by all actors involved.

I agree that there is no point in comparing dramas that have nothing to do with each other. I also have to call you out on your comment 'that drama severely lacking in story'; the storyline and plot development in POJ are rock solid and beautifully unrolled, much more interesting and engaging than this series, in fact. Having said that, LBTG has its own merits, I for one am enjoying it and intend to carry on watching it.

Each to their own. I think he's good. He did a great job at being torn between the two versions of Xiaoxiao and having to decide which one was true.

A Dream Within a Dream, the costumes Liu Yu Ning wore are in a league of their own. 'Stunningly beautiful' doesn't even start to make them justice, I kept rewinding just to admire them again. That was the first time I made a point of looking up the costume designer and discovered Huang Wei, the best among the best.

Then I looked up her dramas list and I realised why I had been so impressed by the costumes worn by Hou Ming Hao in Back From The Brink, they were also hers. And of course Fangs Of Fortune, Love Beyond the Grave which I'm watching right now and every other in the list that I've already watched.

I now keep an eye on her new dramas, I know the chances that they'll be good quality are high.

Are you really getting mad at a kid for being good at what he does as well as handsome? 🙄

You fancy him, admit it.

He doesn't look anorexic at all when he's bare chested, you can see his well developed muscles. You, on the other hand, come across as a very jealous closet gay who can only dream of looking faintly like ZLH. You fancy him, don't you? This is the only explanation for your deranged, obsessive rantings on his looks. LOL!

I'm with you. BL is a niche genre subclass that would have limited its audience. I for one would not have watched it. This particular drama did not need any type of romance of any sexual orientation, anyway.

Please put a spoiler alert on your post, many of us are not there yet!
