Novel-Xiyang did not fall in love with the younger brother of XJS and does not have a kid. Because the Emperor…
There are currently MDL users on this drama page claiming the only thing retained from the novel are the names of characters and places and everything plus everyone is different. That's not correct.
I made a forum discussion and summarised the novel versus drama differences for the first 33 chapters plus other details further in that thread discussion, because the writers kept the best traits of Feng Suige and Fu Yixiao and had to remove a lot of the details which made them look... immature, overly-jealous, unacceptably horrible towards women such as his bedmates/concubines for Feng Suige, and irrational. XiaJingshi shot Yixiao with an arrow, but his doing so was justified because of very different timeline and circumstances right from the beginning of the novel versus the drama.
I could pinpoint that in episode 29 or 30, when Xiyang grabs food from the floor and stuffs broken ceramic plus food in her mouth, she horrifies Xia Jingyan. This is from Chapter 11 of the novel but it was done intentionally by novel-Fu Yixiao and not novel-Xiyang, which unnerves Feng Suige and makes him back down. The incident was retained for this drama but the context and person carrying it out is different, which is why I already interpreted that scene by drama-Xiyang being disgusted by Xia Jingyan but intentionally deciding to scare Xia Jingyan and then she kisses him.
Her primary aim now is revenge for her brother and father, unlike the novel. And she is pitiful, because she can only use herself. Poor Xiyang.
Chapter 114 - Novel-Xiyang is tearfully asking her brother Feng Suige why she cannot touch Xia Jingshi's heart, whom she loves. Xiyang's response after a conversation is to accuse her brother of making excuses for Yixiao. Novel-Xiyang is quite emotionally immature and selfish so technically at this point, the drama makes her look better.
Chapter 116 - Feng Suige is now on very good terms with Xia Jingshi, in wanting to help Xia Jingshi to become Emperor. Xia Jingshi helped Feng Suige with a huge treasury problem in chapter 22 so by the time Xia Jingshi chose to relinquish Fu Yixiao to Feng Suige by chapter 35 despite being in love with Fu Yixiao for over 100 chapters until the end of the novel plus Xiyang loving Xia Jingshi until her death, we wouldn't have this drama if the novel was adapted.
Chapter 118 - Xiyang frees the Emperor for a certain promise he made of killing Fu Yixiao, and escapes from the encampment with him. Yixiao catches up to them. This Emperor (known as Xia Jingyan in the drama) shoves Xiyang at Yixiao while her weapon is drawn, causing Yixiao to accidentally stab Xiyang in the back until the sword tip protrudes from her chest. At that point, Xiyang is still so jealous that she accuses Yixiao of being happy if she dies, so Yixiao can return to Xia Jingshi. In the novel, Xia Jingshi never divorced Xiyang and vice versa. They are still married, even when Xiyang dies.
Chapter 130 - Xia Jingshi volunteers to swap himself for Xiyang and surrender to his younger brother a second time, knowing he might be killed. As he walks towards the Jinxiu Emperor, Xiyang realises that Xia Jingshi has kept his word and is exactly what she told her father: He will never abandon her. She remembers that Feng Suige had people bring the precious black jade essence salve to treat Xia Jingshi's wounds. Xia Jingshi had been badly tortured and wounded by the Jinxiu Emperor because of her foolish decision to believe the Jinxiu Emperor. Yixiao saved Xia Jingshi.
Realising she had failed Xia Jingshi, she makes a decision to sacrifice herself because she cannot bear to fail her husband again. "Husband" is what she calls out to Xia Jingshi, as a sword from a soldier deals her a second fatal blow across the shoulder to add to her first wound.
Holding her close, Xia Jingshi makes Xiyang a promise of sorts in Chapter 131, before being the one to put her out of her misery. Other than that promise, he once told her she would be his only wife, and he honours that with a mausoleum in an epilogue chapter.
Novel-Xiyang's jealousy of Fu Yixiao got her killed. At no point did Novel-Xiyang succumb to the Jinxiu emperor's advances or fall for him. She always rejected his physical advances. Getting pregnant and divorcing Xia Jingshi is only in the drama, not the novel. Hope this helps.
Feng Suige still owes Xia Jingshi for a certain arrow fired at him, which was stopped by Yixiao.
That said, Xia Jingyan is about to be justifiably killed by Xia Jingshi because not only has XJS spent years heading the military to protect Jinxiu so Xia Jingyan can lounge in the imperial palace doing whatever he likes, Xia Jingyan is stupid enough to take his officials' wives as playthings. Having a maid beaten to death on a whim, just to show XJS who is boss.
That's a long list of contributions from Xia Jingyan to XJS already finalising the masterplan to get rid of Xia Jingyan and the Empress Dowager. Meanwhile, Xiyang does the only desperate thing left to her as a woman: Use whatever means necessary in a foreign land to get revenge on whoever killed her brother and father.
Xia Jingshi isn't disturbed by whether Xiyang is his enemy or not because if her blood brother and father are truly dead, she's a sitting duck because he knows she will have to depend on Xia Jingyan and Xiyang has no warrior skills. Xia Jingshi is going to kill Xia Jingyan, so it makes no difference if there's one more casualty. He might reconsider killing Xiyang if Feng Suige is alive and the Emperor of Susha. Otherwise nothing stops him from offing Xiyang who btw, insisted on XJS marrying her without a choice because he spared and helped her that one time, molested him, insulted him, insulted the woman he loves and wants to marry, and now wants to help his worst abuser kill him only because he was too honest and consistent with her about not loving her. One questions whether she really loved him or only loved her idea of what he should be for her. That's why Xia Jingshi says he cannot help her with her obsession.
From his perspective, understandably she is an over-entitled pampered pain in the ass who might have to die. No matter what one thinks of Xia Jingshi including his heinous ideas of sacrificing 300,000 of his own citizens to kill Feng Suige, Xiyang looks completely disgusting and unlovable from his viewpoint, especially when she dresses up as Yixiao to try to trick him into being intimate with her and within the next minute, calls Yixiao a bitch who is playing two men. And then publicly taunts him, after having an eunuch killed for being a mole for XJS without knowing anything more about that eunuch. That eunuch should not have paid the price for her desire to "revenge" herself against XJS. There's a name for a woman like that and no, it isn't "bitch".
XJS knew Feng Suige would never commit patricide. Too bad he can't send Chengyang a memo.
And although I pity Xiyang resorting to using her wiles and body on the Emperor as bargaining chips so she can avenge her brother and father (she doesn't know Feng Suige is alive) and she looked so disgusted before kissing Xia Jingyan, she will deserve Xia Jingshi teaching her a lesson. The question is whether she will survive that lesson or not.
And if anyone harms Xiyang in any way, of course the Killer God of Susha will take revenge by all means necessary. He first has to sort out the traitors in Susha. Looks like Yixiao will be repaying XJS for that arrow.
Spoilery synopsis: In the early 1990s, battlefield hero Feng He returned home to Qingping Town. A cultural relic…
I would like to see his performance-based repertoire. If I had to choose a favourite role of his, I liked his acting in "One and Only" whereas "The Double" wasn't much of a stretch even if he was very charismatic. I'm primarily curious about his ability to emote because I'd like to see where he stands amongst fellow actors such as Zhang Yishan, Luo Jin, Elvis Han Dong Jun, Ou Hao and Wang Duo. He's significantly younger than them. A drama like this will be interesting for me to see how he works alongside Wang Qianyuan.
Here is my theory as to why Xiyang does something in the episode 30 preview (the writers switched something around…
He isn't disturbed by whether she is his enemy or not because if her blood brother and father are truly dead, she's a sitting duck to him because he knows she will have to depend on Xia Jingyan and Xiyang has no warrior skills. Xia Jingshi is going to kill Xia Jingyan, so it makes no difference if there's one more casualty. He might reconsider if Feng Suige is alive and the Emperor of Susha.

That looks terrific. This screencap from the sequence is also terrific: https://m.weibo.cn/detail/5221801233745686#&gid=1&pid=1
The thing with BTS or Reuters is that depending on where someone is from, they might not be able to access certain links. Xiaohongshu is impossible for many people. Weibo is not accessible for some people. x.com doesn't seem to have much. Douyin is doable for some people. Tiktok means you have to rely on the Vietnamese fans who tend to compile links from all the other platforms, and tends to have most (not all) of the material.
1) Episode 29 was full of heart. Xueying wanting to help Ning Fei, Yixiao wanting to save Suige, Xiyang mourning…
Technically, this drama and this power couple ended in episode 1 or episode 28 or episode- (take your pick of issues related to cliff versus pit). Artistically and realistically, too many of us are too invested to give a damn about those gaping flaws the size of Pluto and Alaska XD
Also, I look forward to anyone who has the silver tongue to summarise the affair of Jinxiu Emperor and Xiyang because right now, words fail me in all descriptions of their dynamics. Closet BDSM goth meets flowerchild of the 60s?
Looking forward to seeing how dysfunctional this hippie commune of retired Jianghu elders actually are.
We need more comedy. There isn't enough Auntie An and Physician Ling time D:
Whether this drama is more than 20 episodes or less than 20 episodes, I hope the end results will be superb. Have you watched "Beneath The Undertow" yet?
"Those Flowers" is a female-centric Light On not-yet-aired series of 12 episodes starring Wu Jinyan and the underrated Jiang Shuying who had roles such as Empress Cao in "Serenade of Peaceful Joy". Liang Yongqi is also in it. The list of guest roles also looks good.
It's great to see Xia Meng, Chen Heyi and Qin Tianyu having fun in an interview (while all in their respective…
1) Episode 29 was full of heart. Xueying wanting to help Ning Fei, Yixiao wanting to save Suige, Xiyang mourning her father and brother and finally deciding to take action. And hopefully that song which keeps playing whenever she bawls will get a rest for at least three episodes, because it is driving me nuts.
2) The lines by Yixiao to Elder Lei reminds him of Wei Qingyu, and the scenes conveying those words from two generals past and present were so touching that dust got into my eyes again. Speaking of more than dust in eyes, Emperor Xia Jingyan has already started to fall for Xiyang (in the words of Qin Tianyu in the interview above), which is why he found himself thinking of Xiyang and then throws a tantrum yelling for everyone to get out. Slaps, a knife and blood will do the trick. All the best, Xiyang. As to what you've gotten yourself into, with Xia Jingyan- But you should not underestimate your ex-husband. You publicly gloat too much in advance, while he prefers to succeed and then celebrate. And his trap is almost ready to spring shut, just like the time he nearly killed Feng Suige until Fu Yixiao's arrow accidentally saved the troops of Susha Kingdom.
2) Sa Dingding at last! Hilarious as Immortal Yuan Ji in "Ashes of Love", her cameo as poison-expert Lady An is just as funny. Physician Ling and Lady An are adorable together and need to get drunk together, after this entire mess is resolved. Maybe we could have a bonus episode just for them?
3) 8 episodes left. Resolving amnesia, taking revenge on the Murong clan and Dowager Empress Zhuang, and saving Xiyang- How is this going to work out?
4) Not thinking about the medicine or medical aspects of these two episodes. Tired from yesterday's plotholes in episode 28 which were temporarily suspended, because episode 28 was too intense and I ate too much ice-cream after that.
5) Reddit thread discussions for episodes 25 to 28 have each broken more than 350 comments. My only complaint is not enough GIFs.
It's great to see Xia Meng, Chen Heyi and Qin Tianyu having fun in an interview (while all in their respective costumes as Xiyang, Xia Jingshi and Xia Jingyan). These two guys can make each other blush XD -> https://m.weibo.cn/detail/5221729609712017
In the novel, Princess Xiyang wants to marry Xia Jingshi as a marriage alliance for long-lasting peace, after…
You're welcome. I am used to seeing female leads who can fight. Li Qin is the only one I have seen this far, who actually resembles a general.
I don't know if you have watched this 1993 movie with decent English subtitles known as "The Legend of Fong Sai Yuk" (before Jet Li became famous in the West). It is a HK martial arts action film when stars did their own stunts, because some of the stars such as Jet Li and Vincent Zhao Wenzhuo could actually fight. At least one actress in there can fight.

Yesterday what I sadly predicted is about to come true for drama-Xiyang: Her redemption arc is truly becoming a Feng, after believing she no longer has a family and is at the mercy of two brothers in a foreign country, and on a vengeance kick to bring down those who killed her blood family. After all, between a heartless stone and a lunatic who isn't heartless, which one would you pick to try to use?
The moment Xiyang officially allies herself with Xia Jingyan (be it marriage or a pregnancy), Xia Jingshi will be justified in killing Xiyang since Xia Jingshi wants the throne. Novel-Xia Jingshi was the rightful heir to the throne while wielding the military power of Jinxiu. Drama-Xia Jingshi also wields the military power but I don't know if they will keep that part about him being the rightful heir whose parents were murdered.
If anyone tries to harm Xiyang, Feng Suige will go all out to avenge anyone who murders or tries to murder her, with Yixiao by his side. I believe he has to sort out the mayhem in Susha first, so now I'm a bit nervous as to how this will all work out properly within 10 episodes.
7 more hours .... I need to finish my job faster.*busy *busy *busy 🤣🤣🤣
A detour for ice-cream won't hurt. One pint should help you get to 16 October (express day). My guess about Xiyang is correct. She will do what it takes, for her to (official weibo account spoiler)-

IQiyi Light On series are usually crime or mystery thrillers with varying extents of psychological underpinnings. I do not think this drama will be part of their LIght On series, but don't take my word as final. Below are the various series (already aired and not yet aired) for this compilation:
