After Legend of the magnate, It's the 2nd drama discussion page where I've enjoyed this much analysis & Enjoyed…
Enjoy chatting with you too;). Hope you will eventually return. This is the most chaotic time, would understand why the script writers added some element to soften some characters, or it will be really hard to watch on.🤍
The writer made Hu Jinsi A utilitarian anti-villain to justify his treachery & suddenly made Hongzong a complete…
☝🏻Exactly! Thanks for sharing this. This post should be pinned for future viewers, this script writer as PeachBlossom mentioned, a lot of ‘white-washing’ of Hu Jin Si’s character and dumbing down Qian Hong Zong’s character. The plot holes and inconsistency is more obvious for those who have read up on this part of the history. Here they definitely toned down Hu and made him a loyal subject to Wu Yue.😓
I do think Qian Hongzong was truly a historical idiot but at the same time, the drama whitewashes Hu Jinsi and…
Ah yes, ShuiQiu and Hu Jin Si cannot co-exist…it’s interesting how it’s written here for Hu Jin Si to admit his part of massacre ShuiQiu’s family and for ShuiQiu to appear so respectful of Hu Jin Si…I must say it’s gave a more humane touch to the two of them.
There was a scene where Hong Chu acted “disrespectful” to the military and got sent far away and everyone…
I feel Hong Zong is pressured to take the throne too and he just knew Hu JinSi is not easy to handle so he is just too silly thinking that with power he can just removed a minister under him. Too naive…as you see to the end he was so willing to give up the throne to his brother.
Ep27-30 was such a intense watch…Qian Hong Zong is really not a suitable candidate to be King.
It’s really exciting to see how Qian Hong Chu work through his decision on realizing on how to subdue and tolerate Hu Jin Si…I feel very sad on what happened to Shui Qiu’s family what a tragic death😥😥😥 He could really make a suitable loyal subject to guide Qian Hong Chu. That old man needs to be coaxed and convinced that he is tolerated because of Wu Yue and but it stops there, no more killing…well said Qian Hong Chu.
He was barely a teenager when he ascended the throne, overwhelmed and unequal to the task. He made so many mistakes…
👍🏻 agreed! He is a good kid but being force to wear a big hat without much guidance, which as you rightfully pointed, “work himself to death”. I feel sad on his death, he protected his brothers too.
Maybe I'm missing something, people have been talking so much about how green flag the second male lead is and…
???Green Flag??!!! SML??? I don’t think on this page viewers have that view maybe on other platform, there are fans who like the actor and feel he acts well, no doubt…but his character here is definitely not a green flag.
