Shen Zai Ye costumes already seen in the drama (The princess gambit) https://youtu.be/7YywVSm9B5U _________ PS: I remember a soldier's armor, and a white outfit with a cloak draped over the shoulder. These two outfits haven't appeared in the drama yet. Ahh and a martial arts fighter outfit (with braids in the hair). JTH will also be wearing an outfit where there are braids in the hair. Why would they be in this type of outfit?
If nothing else, this drama has a killer OST! Particularly love Xian Zi and A Yue Yue.
"Missed gem" I particularly like this one. When I heard the snippet, I didn't think it was that pretty, but after listening to the whole thing, I realized how beautiful this song is. (They mentioned in the sample that it's the male lead song.) Perfect choice. And the other one that I really like is the one that closes the episodes, I listen to it every time.
Guys I am quite skeptical about this I watched first episode and then didn't pick up again. Should I watch it?…
Yes, despite some flaws, yes it is worthy, especially up until episode 19.
The drama has a source, and throughout the book there is this ambiguity between love and distrust. They sleep together, they talk, they scheme (but still without confessing their love). And in the drama it is as she says (I am just a flower among the many flowers of Shen Zai Ye). That is until the episode 5, because we know he got rid of the other flowers. In the book, she begins to confess her love (to herself, recognizing the jealousy she begins to feel. And SZY begins to show his love for the lack he feels of having intimacy with her (this was when she lived in the prince's palace). So, I think the drama manages to show this ambiguity between love (and indifference, distrust). It is a double feeling that they feel (and the drama tries hard to show this). And I think it succeeds. We are always: They love each other. They don't love each other. But, in a certain way in the drama and in the book (the love is more evident on SZY's part). She only showed this feeling in the drama, it wasn't jealousy (but the memory of the intimacy she had with him, the flashes of memory). She feels the pain, because this feeling is revealed to herself now, but she herself has a closed heart more than SZY. To the point that he says, "You are crueler than me." He is speaking in the sense of love.
Niney919 an hour ago @yogurt The novel opens with Taohua getting raped by Shen Zaiye. A recurring theme in the novel is a body double pleasing the women of Shen Zaiye’s harem so the Chancellor can avoid emotional entanglements. A huge part of the plot is rear house (women’s dwelling) politics including falling from grace / dismissal of daughters of influential ministers within the nine ministries (we only saw Meng Zhenzhen story arc which is not in the original novel). I don’t think all of this aligns with Confucian values of the time. I can’t speak as to why the screenwriter changed the story. I have shared a little bit of what has been changed.

Yeah...I know they might change the plot in the drama (but still, comparing it to the book helps me understand what's happening in the drama. And I hope (they don't change the happy ending in the book).
Episode 26: Exploiting the Chancellor's Weaknesses
I watched episode 26 just now. This episode was really interesting. There was even a bit of a partnership between Shen Zai Ye and Jiang Tao Hua. We saw several pieces of the mystery begin to come together. Jiang Tao Hua let herself be helped by Shen Zai Ye. Shen Zai Ye's weakness is being exploited by the 3rd prince. The king was persuaded by SZY's arguments. Even his sister helped find a clue favorable to the 4th prince. Qigntai finally treated SZY with respect and not as the "treacherous chancellor". And I liked their little talk: SZY and Qingtai. Only the look of SZY's aide was a little disappointed with Qingtai, but she is just like him, serving her masters to the end. But SZY said (don't regret it). Meng Zhen and Shen Zai Ye making the deal for the antiduct: this moment was interesting.

@ep9 now and gosh… it was a struggle, so tiring to watch but i can’t take it anymore lol. Dropping it… it’s…
It's not the interpretation, it's the script that gives the strength to the actor's interpretation. (I think the actors make the text better, even if it doesn't connect at times).
But there are a lot of scenes I want to see that I've seen in the trailers, clips, and BTS.
Inread somewhere they have 10 scriptwriters for this drama
There are some scenes of BTS, clips, trailers and costumes not yet seen in the drama that make me think that there could still be a better development in this ending (because they have material to draw from).
