Megumi-H

Exactly as you said, lots of lazy writings and riding on fandom. Novel readers can accept if the adaptation changes make sense, however the lazy writings just made it so disappointing.
Some of the original script who actually focus on telling story are so much better, e.g “A dream within a Dream”.

💯 agreed! Drama probably a 7.5/10 for me.

Yes! I watched him in Familir Stranger and he is good👍🏻. Then I started noticing him and he can act🤩. He is up and coming, finally gaining more popularity.

Wow…is that a good thing?😅Thanks for sharing. 🤩 I don’t use twitter.

I get what you mean. I kept reminding myself to stop comparing novel and drama so I can enjoy this better😅. Which I did.
I agreed with you, Chai An Xi’s betrayal reason is weak. He has served under General Xiao for many years and he is a soldier himself, it’s not really possible for him to suddenly betrayed his General for a small minsunderstanding as shown in drama🤦🏻‍♀️.
As for Chu Zhao, I am wondering the drama seems to be setting a redemption arc for him making him grey. In the novel, he feels more manipulative and truly uncaring of others except his goals.
For Xiao Jue, don’t get me started. lol. I am just going to say, I see XJ here is just different person from the novel, and I love both of them:).

👌🏻I accept 😀.

Agreed about the revenge plot lacks weightage. But guess the director is trying to show a misplace anger and a kid being manipulated into revenge at a young age. The use of child’s grief at young age. Wu Xie tried to use his adopted child, but he is smarter and ran away so he picked Tong Shuang who seems to have fixation since young. But as a young child, it’s really hard to believe his resentment can be so strong to maintain the hate for revenge.

Thats no ‘ordinary’ love bite😍🫢.

💯 agreed;).

He was one of the official on the boat with FL’s father, the one that FL’s father suspected to be Yesha and he starts telling ML about Yesha and Haiya.
It is a very happy ending except for Tong Shuang, the leads have a second wedding;) and yes second CPs are also together.
All the best for your exam.

Exactly I noticed that too, as they combined the characters, it is now odd to see him appearing at XianChang academy. If you look back at early ep., He Yan didnt seems to recognise Cheng Lisu at the beginning too. Plotholes🤦🏻‍♀️.

Just started ep 20…so it is indeed shallow water and deep water trick? The horses have QingGong too. lol! Okay..,I just need to rant and reconcile with that part.

Watching ep36…why is XBM not as smart as Yesha????
His brother seems to be always one step ahead of him. But I guessed Thats the plot so that XBM can have that final confrontation. Yesha make us cried hard for Tong Shuang at earlier ep😭😭😭.

So it has been Wu Jie after all, he is first generation where he already groomed his second generation Yesha to follow through his plans after he died, and he is Tong Shuang who is not from Tong family but a Haiya orphan.

So all ep are out…revealed of Yesha is as follow at ep 33, open at own risk…that speech from XBM to Emperor is so well done…kudos to Wang XingYue😍🤩!

Wow, this hypotheses do make sense and everything came to full circle.
I have a strong gut feel that Poison Valley Master is part of it but it just surprise me that they needed the formula from BeiHai and since they are the expert, they still couldn’t figure out the formula. I do hope Xiao Bai Long is not being used and manipulated by his teachers and unaware of this whole scheme, he has always look so innocent.

👍🏻Indeed;)!

🤣🤣🤣Drama logic! Got it…wahahah.

That will be a nice twist too, the other brother turns out to be someone XBM grew up with.
I do fund the trope of having siblings killing themselves quite cruel too.

Yup, arrogance genes. In those times, probably live subjects and they may not have terms like randomize control trials 😅. Think all the soldiers who used it all became monsters, but you are right I wonder will there be outliers?
