Really the whole family are rotten inside just feel sorry for my yeli to be related to such peoples.
Typical noble family in those days, first priority is to protect the big family/family name, especially the male family members. Females, especially wives, are not important, they are outsiders to begin with.
I have a question for novel readers: if the second male lead was the son of the late crown prince, why didn't…
To be an emperor, one need to have strong backing from the minister and/or the army, which he didn't have. He was just 14 y.o. then. The people from Lishan Mountain who were supposed to protect him were killed, The army generals (Mo's family) who were supposed to support the late Crown Prince (his father) were all executed. He was under home arrest for 3 years.
This is not from the novel, but from the drama, episode 12 or 13 if I remember correctly. From the story that Ye Li told Prince Ding (about the death of the Lishan disciples), as well as from Mo Jing Li's own story (about house arrest)
I would say mid to great. Like good. I haven't seen anything that bothered me so far and many of them are quite…
Agree. I think it has been a while since we have realistic fights as in the old wuxia style. The BTS here also show how hard they practice the fighting scenes https://youtu.be/kZKfi4pFi8s?si=5BDy1748eMnM7DAo
That 4th brother of ML is insane. I can't believe they let him walk around freely after he killed his younger…
In the olden days, family reputation is very important. Sending him away is almost like disown him. The 4th brother is the legitimate wife (same mother with ML), while the 5th brother is from a concubine.
This is such a hidden gem. Each of the item's back ground story is like another drama by itself, almost like the Arabian 1001 nights stories. Episode 16-17 is like a totally different drama! I love how we can see each actor/actress in modern as well as traditional costumes from different era (different dynasty as well as from the Republican era). Vengo Gao looks very good with the modern hairstyle as well as with the flowing white hair! He is really the right actor for this role, as he looks good in any of the era. The main plot of searching for the ancient artifact reminded me of Western drama series Friday the 13th.
I find the action scenes in this drama *riveting* and I don't usually pay attention to such things at all! I've…
The villain character reminded me of the 2nd Prince in Joy of Life, someone totally out of place yet doesn't seem to care about what others think of him.
It's only a drama. Don't get too personally invested in it.
This drama is probably more suitable for mature audience. It's unlike Idol drama which caters more towards audience/fans preferences. I find the drama quite reflect real life. Reminiscence of the HK police drama.
Same thought about SML, he’s selfish and has no respect to FL. Even quite rude to others as well, maybe he’s…
It shows that he acted very well. I like his previous works in Heroes and Side Story of Fox Volant. In this role, he reminded me of HK actor Alex Man in his younger HK police/ mafia dramas.
Wow! The car chase on ep 22 was truly awesome! This is such a marvelous drama about PTSD, undercover police works and consequences, relationships (trust). All the actors are very good in portraying each of the broken characters. I love each of the mentors who not only mentoring the ML & FL in their respective field, but also become their relationship advisors. The villain character was also very well acted.
This is not from the novel, but from the drama, episode 12 or 13 if I remember correctly. From the story that Ye Li told Prince Ding (about the death of the Lishan disciples), as well as from Mo Jing Li's own story (about house arrest)
