The "Legend of the Female General" drama adaptation is facing criticism for perceived deviations from the original web novel. Fans are expressing disappointment about changes to the plot, character portrayals, and overall tone. Specifically, the drama is criticized for omitting key elements like the female lead's crossdressing and rebirth plot points, and for potentially focusing too heavily on romance at the expense of other aspects of the story.

A site quotes a facebook info that he is the strategist for the team. If true that hints he will join the five.

Sorry, but that was ep. 16 and it was because Zhuge was left out of the picture. No idea when he will be free to walk around with Zhuge.

They have to make the leads stoic. sigh.

Loaches or roaches in her shoes?

Sorry, it wasn't a judgment comment. Just do what is important for you.
Same with my first comment. I traded sleep to read and watch late late night TV when I was younger and had a full time job. Before the internet. And would gulp a cola if and when I felt sleepy during work.
Now 73 and often about 3 hours of sleep or less. But everyone is different. Thank you and take care.

Sorry. Take care of yourself. That is important.

Thank you. Take care.

Oh, that's where I saw him. He looked like another character from another recent drama. Thank you.

Not given the dynamic ML drama, but the ML has to share screen time with four or five other characters.

And for some maybe hard to get behind the FL when she inadvertently fatally poisons the ML.
I'm enjoying this as I'm watching for the FL.

Fan of Julia Xiang and am waiting for another good romance for her. Love in Time put lots of good will in her bank. Love of the Divine Tree was fine. imho.

sleep is over rated.... Caffeine can be your friend. lol

Reading the comments here, I think that people have their own axes to grind. Generally you know what you like. But too many comments one way or the other may cause you to second guess yourself. Felt it here.

Spoiler









Episode 12. It took her 10 seconds to decide and 5 seconds after that to reach for the knife to cut out an eye to save Beiming. Not in your face all the time, but the love is there.

Thank you.

The Chinese version paid more attention to the main couple's romance than the Taiwanese version. She has room in her heart for only one. For her whole life. The Taiwanese version was more gritty. Unexpectedly gritty.
QVV .
Ep. 5 from 2:37 but from 5:25. His eyes.
Ep. 8 15:43. I think back and think Frost's the path not taken.
ep. 15. the part leading to 9:36 and after. I re-watch that a lot. A lot with wet eyes.
One person didn't like the emotion (called it emotional blackmail) at ep.16 at 14:40 but to be loved like that.
Dear Mr. Hermitage. ??
Thank you.

Thank you. I'm more attracted to feelie moments so I'm not bothered by spoilers. Anyway, looks to be a nice ride.
I also like Zhang Miaoyi. I like it when she is written with smarts.

You are right that they kept the 5th Prince/Emperor's martial arts on the sidelines.But more that martial arts. I love FLs with smarts.
So some minidramas with FLs with smarts. Qingchuasn's Veil of Vengeance (2025) by the same director for Dominion and Devotion. Re-watched the former many times more than the latter. Gender roles swapped, so the ML is more like the Fl. He plays the devoted lover.
Revenge of the Reborn Princess. (2024) Smart FL and an ML that stands by her side even if she doesn't know it. Re-watched it beaucoup times.
Fate's Crossing Nan & Ke (2024) I like Judy Qi, but have only watched this once.
Dream in the Mirror (2024) I re-watch the ending often.
I Don't Want to Be the Princess (2021) only on youtube. Funny and the kind of love that you can only envy.
Protect My King (2024) The last three episodes draw me back.
Does your appreciation of D & D stop at the end and not include the tiktok addendum?
I think that when the General discovers her identity, it might flow better.
I'm also watching The Wanted Detective because I'm a fan of Julia Xiang. But nothing matches up with Love in Time.
Thank you and take care.
Take care.

Thank you. From the drama, skimmed, He Yan joined the army as a recruit and rose to be a general and it was at that battle that she and her army/reinforcements arrived too late. Xiao Jue was at his side and blamed her for arriving too late. His father was made the fall guy and Xiao Jue was angered because He Rufei lied and blamed his Father. He struck at him with his sword and apparently for the first time saw his face. So, much of her skills, like horsemanship came after they separated. But when he saw the new recruit, He Yan post cliff fall, he recognized that He Yan was capable and was hiding his abilities. What I had presumed was the martial arts training at the academy would allow him to recognize her techniques. How she moved and the way she carried herself.
I was thinking that had he recognized her as a recruit, it would bring up questions in his mind who was the original masked general. By ep. 4, he has realized that this He Yan was a woman.

Possibly it is how the rebirth is achieved. What sparked the ban were high school girls drowning themselves saying they want to find love in the past. In Blossom she finds a notebook that allows her to be reborn as a very young girl.
