Whew Ty!!

AI is computer generated without any human involvement, CGI is still computer generated but requires 3D models and actual work from human artists and creators to do.

is Shen Zhishu going to be bad? One of the bts edits implied he might be fighting the emperor but I think it's also just hard to tell who he is pulling his sword on LOL

I'm excited to see Zhili and Di Nian, I figured he didn't ACTUALLY consider her like a sister but was like uhhhhh whats happening haha

Watched all 8 episodes out so far and having a great time. Love the relationship between the women and the men and how they're turning into a larger group together. Really hoping no one dies from the main folks!!

watch the extra lol

I hope that’s what keeps him alive tbh!

In the novel he marries someone else, there’s a whole soul controlling issue and to stop Prince Xin from killing Xihe, he cuts his own head off and has his wife take it to shock Xin from the mind control bc only the controller can stop it.

oh im just saying that multiple can be born on the same year so it doesnt mean they're necessarily that far apart in age except the oldest ones. and we never actually get anyones age except that XHY is 20 now and Lie is a few years younger

i havent seen a show/story with this many princes ever it's too many LOL

the novel has the ages for more of the characters but i only read the last portion so not sure how old the other brothers are, in the novel she's also 14 AND it takes five years for them to get married i think or at least a few years before anything even happens

remember they're with multiple women, but in order of birth and we only got some of the princes:

first is not named/shown so probs dead before show starts/irrelevant
second changmin/ning now dead, his mom is not mentioned ever and in the book he had kids they didnt add here
third never named/shown so irrelevant (same for mom)
fourth changtai/ding on the run (mom also never named or shown so probs dead)
fifth changqing/xin (mom is consort rong)
sixth is changyu/yu (mom is liang who is dead)
seventh is our ML
eighth is nonexistent/irrelevant same for mom likely dead
ninth is changying/ling (mom is consort rong)

and then 10-13 are not shown/relevant might not have survived to adulthood and 14 is the kid

in the novel there's at least 16 of them and again not all of them are shown and at least 3 princesses, Anling, Pingling (who is from Consort Rong as well), and the third isn't on the show I don't think

so he could have as another crown prince been able to already have a lot of women in his own harem and then when he kills Qing, he takes XHY as soon as he's born and then bam his own empress is XHYs mom but bc she's dead no one ever finds out (and XHY's mom is also dead because of the conspiracy)

hopefully all this makes sense, except for the clearly much older and much younger ones, all of the brothers could have been born on the same year!

on one hand i want lie and yingruo to be together if it works out but not if what happens in the novel happens bc eek, SO CONCERNED

yesss i love how truly downbad he is for her, that's usually the premise in so many shows but even then the ML doesn't really get to emote how in love he is until the very end and then there's always the required war arc and drama and separation, but because he'sbeen in love with her since like day three we get to see that and now all their hugs and everything are soft!!

😂😂

Thank you! I appreciate it, I shall try all of them!

that bell will be famous 😂😂😂

do you have recs for other shows with Jeremy? I really ended up liking his portrayal of Xin more than I thought I would bc like you said it's pretty tropey, but he's managed to make it more engaging at least.

yes!! i cant wait to see him be a lead in a few years. every time i see one of the younger actors (and especially the child versions of the MLs) I'm always excited to see them in more shows.

!!! The journey is as important as the end for a character like SXH, I personally have found it very realistic especially considering she has so many good reasons not to trust anyone.

prince xin feeding XHY was so funny, im sure he'll die bc all the princes have to but i wish he was going to get over himself and end up siding with them like in the book

so many changes now from the novel! So curious to see how the rest plays out

Of course!!
