There is a deleted scene where Leads son's who is now the next emperor, is telling his parents story to his daughter (leads granddaughter). https://x.com/churanzip/status/2024329236186877958?s=20 Just release all the cut scenes please!
He was imprisoned, became crippled, lost sanity! They ended his story there! His death wasn't mentioned if I remember…
From his perspective, he might believe in superstitions, hence believed FL could see future! You made a valid point though! Nothing of that was mentioned in the novel! So maybe has left to viewer's imagination!
I wrote about this as well! But I would like to blame the novel for it, because I read it first, also the drama…
In the novel after the first incident of poison powder throwing, FL had him in house arrest. When FL and ML came back after defeating Duan, crown prince became a nice person, acted good, even called FL mother empress. But later it was shown that he was in cahoots with Duan's men and had taken a very toxic poison from empress dowager's chambers and told mute girl to poison FL. Mute girl did not do that because she was attached to FL as shown in the drama. But yes the entire scenario was planned by the crown prince. So later ML deposed him. He would live like a commoner but did not kill him because he was his son.

Crown prince later was in cahoots with Duan's men. He gave a strong poison to that mute girl to poison FL to death. Mute girl did not use his poison because she got attached to FL. But what weird was FL was kind to Crown prince at that point, and he started calling her mother empress and acted as if he accepted and then tried to poison her. So he was deposed. Maybe the drama did not want to show a child like this so they did not do the scene or may have time constraints. But yes that's what happened in the novel.
also can we talk about how horrifically this series treats the crown prince? when ML thinks he will die he sets…
I wrote about this as well! But I would like to blame the novel for it, because I read it first, also the drama is an adaptation! But the novel absolutely made the child a villain by the end, the drama actually toned down his character, so we feel more bad about him seeing the drama! But honestly considering the fact that crown prince is not deposed off, and ML is now in a better place mentally and FL is a good person, and with no manipulating characters in palace, maybe crown prince will get better guidance and have a better life, like I consider it an open ending for the crown prince!
Some dramas do. Like Cheng Lei's previous Drama Legend of Female General aired in Hunan tv. So for that I guess they continue airing one episode, but on streaming platforms, express is available for people who want to pay extra! But this drama, is exclusively an iQiyi project, its produced by them, streaming rights are theirs!
Its just airing on iQiyi! Yes its a very common thing of cdramas, which air in streaming platforms, all of them have express schedule earlier or you can call it fast-track!
In the novel, the ML returns to the real world first and grows up there, so by the time the FL finally comes back,…
I know that. I have read the novel! I am not saying they had a weird age gap! I am saying that because Chinese censorship rules doesn't consider the novel world or any fantasy world real, hence they might consider ML as a teenager, and FL as an adult, if the drama explicitly shows them returning as a teenager and adult respectively though in different timelines! Chinese censorship might not allow that because they would consider, that in the novel world though we know ML grew up, but the authorities would still consider him to be a kid!
Also I am not saying any of this! A person in X tweeted this, saying this might be the reason to avoid any complexities, the producers decided to take a safe route!
They always were! But that's their characters in the novel! So ML also proposes to her with a ring, modern style! But yes since the first episode she was already his concubine, then noble consort, then eventually empress as well!
In the novel, it was shown that the mute girl got the poison from Crown Prince, who along with a man of Duan plotted…
I read it before the drama airing!Due to time constraints, episodes cut and chinese censorship, they couldn't copy that exactly! Though our drama concluded everything very nicely, its just the transmigration part, I get it, its not in hands fully, that's why every drama have to come up with tricks to avoid the rules! Its okay I was satisfied!
Yes on not passing censorship. It was a good creative and business choice to make the ending that way in the drama.…
100%, I know that, you know that! The person who said that, meant Chinese censorship might not agree to it! Hence they had to leave it to viewer's imagination!
Someone said in X, I don't know if its true or not but-Said if they exactly copied novel's ending, it might not…
Also honestly, they got a very happy ending in the novel world, and a very beautiful start in the real world, with memories intact, hence that is already very satisfying for me!
