i see a lot of video titles saying liushishi returns to the screen; was she very famous for a previous work? was…
She was very popular and a fan favorite; you can say that she was Yang Zi's era during her time. Most of all her earlier works were in a traditional setting and her physique really matches it. She has worked alongside famous actors like Yang Mi, Hu-ge, Wallace Huo, Yuan Hong when China dramas were slowly on a rise. Before Ten Miles Peach Blossom became an international hit, there was her drama Scarlet Heart which overtook China and Asia country. She's done some works afterwards, but got married and went on a hiatus for a while. She did came out with works in a modern setting, but traditional setting is where she really shine so they call it her comeback because it's been a while since she has starred in a traditional drama.

Wow, lots of fun discussion going on here. Personally for me, I would say TTJ is crazier because of the things…
Yes! TTJ is the most pitiful ML ever in my history of dramas, but he's done some crazy things that made me go "Dayuuum". TTJ was never shown love and was abused all his life because of his evil bone, but that also doesn't mean XW was any less; XW was betrayed and disowned by his own father, and fought for survival. To me, XW killed himself in the first life because he believed that he should have died 20 yrs ago, but lived on because of the innocent kids that had died during the rebellion and for the Yan family. Once he completed his revenge against the Xue family, took care of Lord Pingan, and made sure that Yan Lin was okay then he killed himself. Killing himself was also an offering to JXN since he will never able to repay her back after her death.
These two situations are entirely different. You can't compare Xie Wei's moment of jealousy to TTJ's moments of kill or not to kill, which he always made sure to settle his grievances. Not that I don't understand why TTJ's like that, but it's because I understand him which is why he's crazier of the two. TTJ only cares about Susu while XW cares about XN and those who are dear to him. XW kills too but he's still able to differentiate between vegeance and duty from early on and stuck to those principles. TTJ as Jiuming to me was like a person who had been reborn. By then, he already went through so much and carried such a big guilt that he only cared about Susu, but was capable of opening up and trusting other people.
Finally completed! Happy to say that ZLH as Xie Wei really carried this show during the 2nd half and nailed it. Thankful to the writer for creating an awesome character like Xie Wei!
Ok, this mini drama was actually really good; 1st ep was kind of chaotic, but it eventually gets better. Leads had tons of scenes together. Richard Li never disappoints with gracing my screen - he does so well with this type of authoritive power character and I love it! And, I'll keep saying it, but Richard Li really needs a full length drama! FL was a little bit awkward with her character at the beginning, but she gets comfortable with each coming eps. The funniest characters went to Prince Chen and Minister Liu who had me LOL everytime with their lines and expressions! Also, I noticed that on Wetv's upload of this drama on youtube, the full vid length and regular eps BOTH had some uncut scenes so it might be better to watch both to see which scenes weren't included in the other.
