It's a nice break from all the palace betrayals & killings

I came looking for Ryan Zhu/Zhu Yuan Bing and got a two for one deal! lol Xie Bin Bin is also staring in this movie!! I'm so thrilled! I love Xie's expressiveness and was looking forward to seeing him again! But I didn't expect that he be casted in a role where he loses his wife/wife to be before he's even won her over two times in the same year! This is apparently the first time and Chang'an Youth was the second with the same actress (Uvin Wang) that his character loses the lady he's initially paired with and the 2nd lady dumps him. Although the character he's playing (Chang Xu/ General Chang) seems harder than the Chang'an Youth's TangTang, it still sucks that he got the short end of the stick again.

Seeing Zhu's character was a momentary distraction, but nicely done. This movie just feels like an interlude, an excerpt from another time and escape from all the betrayals and killings that sometimes dominate period dramas involving palace figureheads. Thanks for the hard work & the subs!
