the novel has a very interesting premise but it's not executed well and there's no well defined plot which carries the story forward. I really really hope the scriptwriters up their game and it's not messy. How often to do we see a morally grey interesting female lead who isn't running after the ML in a cutesy childish way ?
she stands out among her peers as she looks elegent. feminine, mature and dignified. Even her behaviour is different. Compare that to her peers who are overly childish and look like starving kids (though still beautiful)
can we just talk about how it doesn't make sense for all these beautiful young women to be in love with the fat old emperor lmao? like tf, ik they can only depend on him and have no way out but realistically they should try to have kids, kill the emperor and have affairs. It only made sense for the empress to love him
Same here. I’m watching TTEOTM because she’s the FL but the drama is getting messy (only focus on the ML)…
i knew that already since the novel of TTEOTM was terrible and eveyone hated the doormat heroine, bai lu made it better but the character was still badly written.
praying that both don't have to go through unneccesary troubles
