Sooo I've been scrolling through the comments but can't seem to find a clear cut answer. What's the ending? Happy?…
It's really hard to define what it means by a sad or happy ending, that's why you can't find your definite answer.
SPOILER: This is the ending - The last scene shows Ma Zhaixing gravely wounded laying in Bo Wang's arms. He cried. That's it.
The later narratives say Bo Wang brings her back to the mountains and none to be seen ever again (not shown).
Here are the interpretations by some viewers:
- Bo Wang has supernatural power and heals Ma Zhaixing and they live happily ever after.
- Bo Wang brings Ma Zhaixing's body back to the mountains, and dies himself 6 months later.
- My interpretation: Bo Wang brings Ma Zhaixing's body back to his cave on the mountains, lays beside her, and dies together.
I love my own interpretation because I feel it is romantic and beautiful to have died together. The first interpretation to me is implausible because it doesn't really go with the storyline (maybe for the novel or anime, IDK). The second interpretation is painful for me by thinking he lives all alone mourning for her death for 6 months before he dies himself.
This is a very accessible book that you can consider:https://www.amazon.com/Early-Chinese-Empires-History-Imperial/dp/0674057341/ref=sr_1_1?crid=N54XTCAZCXQK&dchild=1&keywords=the+early+chinese+empires+qin+and+han&qid=1608173984&sprefix=qin+and+han%2Caps%2C361&sr=8-1
It's really ironic that all these books are written by non-Chinese.
Thanks for letting me know there's hope. I'm on ep 24 and it's starting to turn into a regular romance drama instead…
Huh romance? I wish he did. No, hardly any romance. We have almost 30 episodes to see what greatness he has brought to China, his legacy. Hang in there.
Yo, you've started this without me? XD Happy watching!
No, I haven't started this yet, have been too engrossed in another drama Qin Dynasty Epic. I'm just checking this (Legend of Fei) out. May start this weekend if I like it. But some not so flattery comments from some discerning viewers. They give very good unbiased comments. Will be following what they say in the next few days :)
There are 2 very distinct groups here as far as Xiao Zhan is concerned: one his die-hard fans and the other, fans…
It is indeed very sad what people value these days. In China especially, like most countries in the world, almost everything is about money (though there are exceptions). In the criteria in everything people choose, money is always the main one. Social media makes everything worse.
Yes, indeed you talk like a mummy XD (it's a compliment). Have fun!

Hmm.... wonder if you still remember The Beatles days? Perhaps that's too old for you. It was quite a craze for teenage girls then :D I guess what I'm trying to say is many people go through that phase. We were all teenagers once, and did all kinds of crazy stuff that I want to spank myself today. With today's social media, cell phones, online shopping etc, it's not hard to see why we have today's state as in fandom and stuff. What do you think? :D
Anyway, I'm glad you're liking this drama. I really like it myself despite many viewers loathing it.
This is so good! Hard to watch when a 10 year old boy in a 40 year old man's body. But later episodes are so good. I really enjoy the Lao Ai arc because that also something that affects Ying Zheng deeply. Great build up here.

So here you go. Choose your own ending :D
