Oh no, they've got their hands on the pretty prince and are slicing away at him. The chancellor is on the case but not close enough. Tao Hua's flower is in full bloom but she refuses to do their heinous bidding. Something's gotta give.

No i't not her, it's a delightful bromance.

Finished ep. 15. The crown prince is demoted; his bromance took the fall (on a rope); the sister is crushed; all the harem is dispersed. The chancellor never seems to have time or inclination to have marital relations. That doesn't bode well for Princess. What's next in the struggle for survival?

Made it to ep 6 so I guess I'll keep going. Haven't mentioned yet how much I like the soundtrack. The tasseled hat cracked me up. ML just can't catch a break. In YiMeng's eyes he's evil incarnate.

Thanks, I'll stick with it. Not much else on right now.

I've only done 4 episodes and it's so repetitive. Meany ML who's not quite up to the task of killing this treacherous FL who's not the scriptwriter but somehow managed to rewrite scenes to survive. The general is the same actor Lui Yu Ning had in Prisoner of Beauty but here is not as funny.

How do you say Groundhog Day in Mandarin? Trying to be funning with this "death becomes her" wedding trope can get tiresome. I hung on for two episodes but it's just too ditzy for me.

Half-way through and I'm loving it. What a determined, lovable hero and a feisty, funny female lead. The recap of their passionate night was great. Let's have more.

You should put this info under a spoiler so we don't lose this site.

What a cruel SOB the chancellor is. It's great to see him outsmarted. With photographic memory she can copy the painting and get it out without being suspected like his wife. Cutting up your abdomen is pretty drastic but it means he has to stich her up and get a taste of her blood on the suture. Will he want more of a nibble?

OMG not the 'poisoned pill' again. This trope is used endlessly. The aloof chancellor looks like he will be a hard nut to crack. Harem politics are not my favorite as I hate women trying to harm each other, I prefer stories that have women team up to take on men's power.

Just started this and it didn't take long to get her 'deflowered'. Which evil plotter could have gotten the relentless wolves to do their bidding.

Looks like in his next couple of dramas he will be paired with a couple of 'older' women. That is so cool.

This comment should have a spoiler alert.

Good revenge drama. The main lead has a believable presence and was a loyal friend and lover. The bad guys were not the most impressive except for the eunuch. Loved his sideshow of singing opera and working the hell out of that taiko. Pretty subdued ending considering this was a taunt story.

My love for historical dramas is such that I'm also very forgiving especially if it features actors I like. I do prefer the longer format though.

Thanks for that. Now I don't have to watch it.

Ep. 6, I love camels and donkeys. Any time a Cdrama has either of them it makes my day.

Just finished ep. 27 and it's a cliffhanger. Zang Hai is getting some of his revenge but it seems to be making him physically ill. Some of the decisions his opponents are making are not making much sense. Between assaulting the palace and pounding the sh*t out of the taiko, the general and the eunuch seem to be in a fit of brain fever. I haven't rated this drama yet and to my mind it's steadily declining quality.

Great drama. Only up to ep 25 but the ML's revenge quest is pretty ruthless and quite a bit of collateral damage.
