My personal observation is the power of imagination is much more creative than what they will allow onscreen anyway...

Emperor Taizong was well known for having many great and wise advisers. I love how the drama portrayed the dynamics between them.

Web dramas generally pass censorship more easily. The bar is higher for TV broadcasts and also has to go through different local levels of censorship so it takes a lot longer.

Finished, very happy with the ending and help, I can already feel the slump.

It just cracks me up bc she really only comes up to his armpit!

Now that literally is raining on my parade.

I am quite sure in some of the scenes where Hao Du and Leyan are hugging side by side she is standing on a stool.

Yes, but hopefully one that doesn't marry prince that turns into a toad.

OK I give up on catching up on the comments. I go to sleep and I can't even find what I wrote last night anymore...

Its definitely not the Mongols - Tang dynasty was much earlier - Kublai Khan doesn't come along until 500-600 years later to decimate Song dynasty. Early in Li Shimin's reign he fought with the Eastern Turks.

Wow this airhead is really the worst. She is 10x worse than Wei Shuyu, who is really redeeming himself. She responds to the same blackmail over and over and betrays her friends instead of going to them for a solution. And this is after knowing how smart they are and how they are able to turn situations around. She never learns and just doesn't get it because she is so selfish she doesn't see the big picture and she will sacrifice not only her friends but the greater good and the lives of many to save two people. What a blank person. I will not be sad at all if they kill her off at the end.

Stopping here and calling it a night. Got to work tomorrow.

Ep 45 re Mimi:

I have to say hearing them say the lines in their own voices is good but it also somehow seems "off"...

No of course not, I probably won’t be able to finish tonight.

49.

Yes its advance view $0.99 per episode.

Its on tencent video already.

Nah don't worry... if someone has to take the fall, she is my pick also.

OMG this cracked me up.! You may as well just have wrote - ok drama, if someone has got to die, I throw Mimi under the bus. You better not mess with any of our other couples.

I put it in one of my all time favourites. If you wait for them all it may take 4-5 years... Just start and rewatch, its so funny you won't mind.
