The Elder Sister is funny in ep 1 with the topless guards.🤣

LOL....thanks for the laugh..😁

I haven't seen his works before. It's so crisp and sharp, and I'm not referring to the 1080p quality. I don't mind the 24 eps honestly, esp if if it's well done. It may just not have as many sub-plots or arcs, that's all. Let's enjoy this one together along with The Legend of Zhuo Hua!! =)

Has it always been slated for 24 episodes? It makes me wonder whether much was edited and cut from the usual 40 episodes and if so, that would be a pity at the risk of loosing cohesiveness and coherence in storytelling. On the other hand, ep 1 seems so well made that I'm also thinking perhaps it's the director's style in being succinct and tight rather than using unnecessary fillers to lengthen the number of episodes.

Just finished Ep 1, and I'm super impressed!!! It has all the right elements to hook me in right from the start. Great production, execution, and direction. There isn't one wasted frame. So many nice angle shots paired with dark color scheme for that suspense feel. The ML gives off a dark Legalos vibe minus the bow and arrows, and yes, he's soooo fine. Instrumental sound effects are also intense. Overall, it feels like i'm watching a movie. So looking forward to chase this series now!!

Good to know you're enjoying it. I'm on ep 1. I love the suspense and sound effects.

Just got the news. That sucks. I love them both leads and it was on my plan to watch list.

It's so heartwarming that you and your Mom share an activity together. She has good taste with Ren Jialun and sounds young at heart. I like him, too. =)

Hahaha,,...that's hilarious. She said that because he looks old (aka ham sap lo) or is it because his eyes have ham sap vibes? He does have a few side eyeing scenes in here.

Me, too. So far the plot has been tight and reasonable.

Definitely start commenting more! I love to watch shows that are airing. When it's a great drama, it's a lot of fun to comment on the forum as it airs, especially if the posters in the group are nice, too. =)

I enjoy this forum, too. I was watching Lost You Forever prior to this and, oh my, so much aggression there which was sort of sad because exchanging views nicely over an entertaining drama would be so much more enjoyable. May the force be with us!🤪

Second and third princes are old and sane enough to rule without the help of a regent. Very interested to know how it's going to pan out because no matter how it's sliced and diced, there's no easy way to grab the throne from her position. She would really have to work some Houdini magic to steal it.

Although Princess Roujia helped move the Empress Dowager's plan along that killed 30K men, I feel she does want to do good to her nation and raises the living standard to the people including bringing equity to women. In ep 26 when she was conversing with the Dowager, the Princess did say that she wanted to be the ruler so that she could help more unfortunate souls, save more people, and make the country a better place.

I'm wondering the same. Did she or didn't she? Nothing about her is revealed until the last minute, so we would never know the truth.

Her fiance was just a pawn in her overall scheme. She doesn't love him. Her reason was to avenge her biological mom's death and to gain power and have the throne.

Yes, indeed 4 sounds like an option. She would have to discredit 1st Prince first since he’s LD’s favorite .

Are you kidding me? I love Jane Austen… and Mr. Darcy, of course. 😍😝

That’s why I’m conflicted. I sympathize her past and what happened to her, and would have forgiven her mistakes; but she really crossed the line with the 30k men and LD. I cannot in full conscience pardon her.

I hope she doesn't go this route. If she's relying to Northern Liang's military power, she should be concerned that once she has the throne, what would prevent Northern Liang from turning the table on her and seize her land/nation instead?
