The First Jasmine

Decent Fanfiction - Atrocious "Adaptation"

I normally don’t write reviews and just give shows a rating. However, weeks after finishing the drama, I find myself constantly thinking about it and how disappointed I am. I was so excited when I heard Cheng Lei and Bai Lu were cast as the leads in this adaptation, and prayed they wouldn’t butcher it. My hopes were crushed to see 98% of the story changed. What is the point of obtaining rights to a story if you change EVERYTHING?

Every episode I had to fight the adaptation snob in me from raging and remind myself to watch it for what it was…FAN FICTION. I truly do not understand why they changed the entire plot. As an “original story” it is decent, touching on topics like trauma, and mental health. I commend the actors for doing a good job with this atrocity of a script called an "adaptation". The actors did a great job with what they were given, but overall, the romance fell flat, and the politics/schemes were not as engaging as the novel.

Yes, the novel is long. Yes, I understand that adaptations change things to suit the different mediums and I accept that. Pursuit of Jade also changed things from the novel, but those changes did not impact the essence of the plot and the overall story being told. What the screenwriters/adapters did with The First Jasmine is criminal. Let them work on original content, and be banned from adapting anything in the future.

Amazing characters were either completely cut out or changed to the point they were unrecognizable. They destroyed the essence of the ML turning him into a weak simp, and turned a strong intelligent FL into a traumatized victim. The romance, deep love & respect the two leads have in the novel as they navigate survival in a treacherous political war-torn world is nowhere to be found in the drama. I wanted to see their relationship built on trust and respect, where they didn’t hide anything from each other. I wanted to see them work together on military strategies to defeat their numerous enemies. I wanted to see Ye Li being the only person in the world who could put a leash on Mo Xiuyao. I wanted to see the Mo Xiuyao who was still feared and powerful even when confined to a wheelchair. I didn’t get any of it. All I got was broken characters with little to no resemblance to their written counterparts. I wish they properly adapted the story. There was so much content in the novel to make a great drama.

The whole Lishan plot DID NOT HAPPEN. There was no “Child Emperor” and Empress Dowager was not the main antagonist. Mo Jingli, the Emperor’s brother, was a better antagonist in the novel along with many others. Ye Li’s maternal family were her biggest supporters. They even had the audacity to cut out their son Mo Xiaobao. His scenes constantly bickering & plotting against his father to monopolize his mother's affection are some of the funniest scenes I have ever read.

FINAL VERDICT- DISAPPOINTING

The First Jasmine: All Fragrance, Not Enough Bloom

The First Jasmine started like a banquet but somehow ended up serving leftovers.
The opening episodes had everything going for them. A clever heroine, political intrigue, palace schemes, hidden identities, revenge, and a prince who was far more interesting than the usual cold, brooding male lead. The story grabbed my attention immediately, and I genuinely thought I was about to watch one of the best historical dramas of the year.

Then somewhere around the middle, the writers seemed to lose their own map.
The pacing slowed to a crawl. Several episodes felt like fillers designed to stretch the runtime rather than move the story forward. Conversations dragged on, misunderstandings multiplied, and the plot kept circling the same emotional roadblocks. Instead of building momentum, it gradually leaked it away.

The biggest disappointment was the truth behind Lishan Academy.
For dozens of episodes, the drama built this mystery into something that sounded earth shattering. I expected a shocking conspiracy, a massacre, treason, or some grand political crime that justified years of revenge and suffering. Instead, the final reveal landed with all the impact of finding a fly floating in your cup of tea. After all that suspense, the payoff felt surprisingly flimsy. It was a mountain giving birth to a mouse.

The endless angst also became tiring. Once again, another historical drama leaned heavily on the familiar idea that children must spend their entire lives paying for the sins of their parents. It is a common Cdrama theme, but here it felt overused, creating conflict that often depended more on stubborn misunderstandings than believable character choices.
The acting certainly wasn't the problem. Bai Lu and Cheng Lei gave solid performances and carried their characters with grace and quiet strength. Unfortunately, the script rarely gave them the emotional fireworks they deserved. Their roles often felt restrained, making two talented actors play characters that were far blander than they could have been.
The production was beautiful, the costumes elegant, and the cinematography never disappointed. Even when the story slowed, it remained pleasant to look at.

Overall, The First Jasmine is a good drama if you're simply looking for something enjoyable to pass the time. It begins with real promise, loses its footing through an overextended middle, and finishes with a reveal that simply doesn't justify the enormous buildup. Not a bad drama by any means, just one that could have been far greater than what it ultimately delivered.

Final verdict: A jasmine flower with a wonderful fragrance, but one that wilted long before the final episode.

Even the most beautiful vases have cracks

I was looking forward to this drama when I heard that Cheng Lei and Bailu were starring together and it didn't disappoint

I didn't read the novel but the story was interesting. Sadly, there wasn't much romance as I thought there would be. I heard the novel had a lot of chapters, so 40 episodes weren't enough to adapt it and I agree. When we start at the beginning, it takes us right to the wedding of the characters with no time to spare, which I appreciated because they didn't drag much of the plot around for filler episodes. As the episode aired, we came to find out more about what happened off screen but their past as well. However, it is noticeable that the 40 episodes weren't enough because in certain episodes, the pacing suffered in return, just like pursuit of jade. The romance was alright but I wish it could've been more prominent. Sometimes I got confused on whether Ye Li and Mo Xiu Yao were together or not romantically lol.

We will come to find out about Ye Li past as more episodes come and it was tragic. Since we saw her in the first episodes, we could tell that something was wrong with her. It was as if she were a beautiful vase that was on the verge of cracking as more episodes came out about her past and suffering. Her story reminded me once again of how humans truly can be the greediest yet worst people alive and those same people would be your own family. I wanted to hug Ye Li so badly because the poor girl has been failed so many times by the people around her.

Her story as well was a reminder of just how resilient she was, she never gave up, even if her own mind tricked her just to protect her. It reminds us as well how her will to survive pushed her to survive till the male lead's household. Both the female and male leads' resilience and will to survive showed us how strong they were, but also a beautiful message to us about survival and to never give up even if you want to die.

Now, one thing I found rather just funny was how the female lead was able to cure the male lead's leg so easily with acupuncture and medicine. It just felt a bit unrealistic to me but I'm not surprised that the male lead's legs would be able to work cause I definitely foresaw that trope (just kidding, it's a hunch). I did want to see more of Ye Li reaction when she found out the truth because I just felt it was rather short and quick and that she accepted it fast

Besides that, the styling wasn't bad; we did get a good sense of how frail Ye Li looked, especially the hair looked so big that sometimes I wonder if her head can carry all of that weight and if she would fall. Cheng Lei looked handsome with that grey hair.

The acting from both Bailu and Cheng Lei didn't disappoint! Bailu was able to portray Ye Li complex emotions really well and her strong yet fragile side. Cheng Lei portrayed MXY resilient and patient side really well. He had that soft-spoken voice whenever he talked to Ye Li and I found it sweet how patient he sounded.

The cinematography wasn't bad either; the more muted gray tone in some scenes really matched the eerie vibe of the story, especially surrounding Ye Li

I would recommend this if you want a more plot-driven story with two good leads who know how to act, just don't expect very strong romance

Started well but lost it's spark at the end

This drama deals with mental illness which is a plot I love. The actors did so well. It had me hooked from episode 1-31. From ep 31 it went downhill, it felt like I was watching something completely different even that emotional connection wasn't there anymore. What irritated me the most was the divorce In ep 31, the ml lead promised to always be there for fl after finding out she's mentally ill. But at the least inconvenience that happened, he divorced her and sent her back to the mountain. I can never forgive him for that even when he apologized in ep 32, I couldn't look at him the same way. They ruined the ending of the drama. It's a good ending but it's too weak

IT WAS A GOOD STORY but Missed FL ' s fight scenes ?

I enjoyed the acting but the story; it was started as revenge but slowly that part faded away i thought she is gonna fight along side with the main lead after the court breach but it was kindoff disappointment ☹️ also we never got to see a fullbscale war and ml fighting enemies in battlefield but for romance and healing part it was good 😊 her acting made us feel the pain of loosing people around us and how he always stood with her after realising she has PTSD and inside the protective bubble created by her brain after that what she faced. It was phychologic drama in costume period and it also shows how mentally strong was our old generation that she made came out of that after some one held her hands YAA THAT IT

Forging a better path forward

This is a beautifully produced period drama that includes all the great things I love about period dramas: a little romance, a little revenge, a lot of game of thrones, and a pithy script that explores all the highs and lows of human and nature. As expected of the main writer and director of this drama, this is a worthy though heavy story to savor slowly. Additionally, Bai Lu and Cheng Lei give perhaps some of their best performances of late, a welcome respite from the myriad idol dramas they have been in these recent years.

However, in the season of summer when one might want something more blockbuster-y, this drama may be a little too sad and pedantic at times to really soar. The rousing final act with its action-filled climax is overshadowed by a prolonged denouement, as the script struggles to balance the multiple antagonists.

Still, this is probably one of the best period C dramas this year and is a must watch for all period drama lovers. It's ultimately a story about coming out of darkness, out of your haunted past, and forging a better path forward. A path not riddled with putting down others so that you can thrive, but a path of cultivating truth, light and justice.

I came back for Cheng Lei... and stayed because MoLi was actually good

I think Moli just ended my C-drama slump for the past two months. But weren't we all taking a break from ongoing dramas during that period? Lol.
Anyway, here's my review.

First of all, I'm a fan of Cheng Lei, but not really of Bai Lu. I've watched three of her previous dramas and only managed to finish one (Story of Kunning Palace). So when they announced Moli's release date, I packed my bags from K-drama land and immediately came back just for Cheng Lei. Lol.

When I watched the first few episodes, I noticed they didn't use that many filters. The editing and color grading felt so raw that I could actually see their pores, eyebrows, and even the girls' blush. I'm not complaining, but after spending years watching dramas with heavy filters and color correction, it was surprisingly refreshing.

Another thing I noticed was how quiet some scenes felt. The background sounded so empty in a few parts, and I don't know why they didn't add any BGM. Usually, there are birds chirping, leaves rustling, or at least some instrumental music playing in the background. But I eventually got used to it, and by the later episodes it felt normal. I really liked the couple's OST, though.
Story-wise, I didn't read the synopsis beforehand, so I went in with zero expectations and without comparing it to the novel. I honestly don't care how they portrayed Mo Xiuyao in the novel, I really liked him in the drama. And Ye Li too, of course. She has to be one of the strongest human beings ever. If I were in her position, I would've REALLY buried myself in that hole already. She suffered so much, and it's completely okay to pity her.

I think the pacing across all 40 episodes was executed pretty well. I read somewhere that they cut a lot of Cheng Lei's scenes, and as a Cheng Lei fan, all I can do is hope they'll release them as special clips or something. But I also understand that Bai Lu is the main highlight of this drama. Like I mentioned earlier, I'm not her fan, but I know she's a sweetheart and she's a very capable actress. Still, Cheng Lei was the one who kept me watching, so I couldn't help feeling a little disappointed. I'm sorry :(((

The pacing was good overall, but the ending felt like a letdown. No, not the main couple's ending, I mean the supporting characters. Mo Jingli's final rebellion scene was such a disappointment. What do you mean he lost just like that? Mo Xiuyao didn't even do anything, like, no attack, no COOL entrance, nothing. Yes, he saved Ye Li, but... he didn't really save her. He was just... there... if you know what I mean. Come on, director. You could've given us an epic flying-blocking-attacking-stabbing three-way fight between Ye Li, Mo Xiuyao, and Mo Jingli 😭 Instead, the arrows ended everything. Oooookay.

Then there's the Empress Dowager's ending. It was so anticlimactic to let her die ‘peacefully’ in her own bed. I wanted her own son to issue an imperial edict FIRST, strip away her title, exile her, and let her die in the poorest conditions ever. Lol. I guess I was just craving some dramatic ending after my C-drama slump. But who am I? I'm not the scriptwriter or the producer haha.

The main couple's ending, though, was adorable. I loved how Ye Li finally succeeded in finding her husband on the battlefield, just like what she wanted to do when she was younger. I'm convinced they cut the bed scene after their reunion (I choose to believe that!), which was annoying, but the closure at Lishan Academy still had me in tears. You've worked so hard, Ye Li. Now please, just walk the flower path together from now on ☹️

By the way, I really don't understand why people are hating on Mo Xiuyao for divorcing Ye Li. What he did was actually valid and realistic. It was a misunderstanding. He genuinely believed Ye Li was only repaying a debt and didn't actually love him. He wasn't exactly in the healthiest state of mind either, so it's understandable that he misread her intentions. Honestly, Ye Li's initial reason for helping him was probably really to fulfill the promise she made to his brother. It just gradually turned into love so naturally that people couldn't even pinpoint the exact moment her feelings changed. That conflict was absolutely necessary for the story and it was actually my favorite part because apparently I enjoy watching my favorite characters suffer (?) hahahahaha. This isn't one of those smooth, too-good-to-be-true first-love stories from a youth drama, you know, and that's exactly why I liked it. I especially loved the main couple's love language, particularly Mo Xiuyao's constant nagging and scolding. He genuinely cared about his wife, he just... didn't really know how to express it in a green-flag way lol. Poor A Jin had to witness all of it. Anyway, they're both soooo cute.

And there's really nothing to say about their acting except that both of them are pros. Like, they can actually move their faces. I cried when they cried, and I laughed when they laughed. What more could I ask for? The supporting cast was also excellent. Ye Li's crew and Mo Xiuyao's crew absolutely deserved to be thereeee. I love A Jin so much. Please give this man a raise! He's a babysitter, an adopted son to his dad, a matchmaker, a bodyguard, and the most dedicated audience member throughout MoLi's entire journey. He even cried together with his dad ☹️

Shoutout to Senior Li too, because he deserved every second of his screentime. And Ye Ying... she really is the definition of "love is blind." I almost skipped her scenes with Mo Jingli in Episode 38 because she was just that frustrating to watch. So stupid, oops, sorry lol.

Style-wise, Cheng Lei with white hair looked FANTASTIC, although Song Mo still wins for me haha. Sorry, Cheng Lei. Xiao Dudu and Xiahou Dan are still your best looks in my opinion. But I'll always love you anyway lol. As for the girls, I never thought I'd actually like the Tang dynasty's tall, rounded hairstyles, but they looked beautiful, especially Ye Ying's. Qing Yu's side buns, though... she startled me every single time she appeared on screen. Haha. But I have to say, the actress really looks like those women from ancient Chinese Tang dynasty you see in history books.

Last but definitely not least, I ABSOLUTELY LOVE MOLI BECAUSE CHENG LEI USED HIS OWN VOICE FOR DUBBING!! That is an achievement. Lol. That's it. That's all. I'm so proud of him. Please keep using your own voice in your future dramas, pleaseeeee.

Overall, Moli was a great cure for my C-drama slump. The empty release schedule in May and early June was so painful that I actually went back to watching K-dramas again. I actually watched Ashes of Crown and Dazzling before Moli (with a completely flat face and 1,5x speed, honestly), and I can confidently say that it wasn't until Moli that I finally felt like calling myself a C-drama fan again. As a Cheng Lei fan, it's still a little disappointing because of his ‘limited’ screentime. But considering the C-drama drought I've been going through, Moli was definitely a solid comeback and one that reminded me why I fell in love with C-dramas in the first place.

Those Were Scary Monkeys

Bai Lu did a masterful job of playing the kind, broken-brained killer, Ye Li. She had solid reasons for her revenge, and I wanted her to succeed in unraveling her four little death dolls, even when I was concerned her actions would cause her to self-destruct.

An arranged marriage paired her with an equally traumatized individual, Mo Xiu Yao. He had every reason to question why he'd been paired with a politically volatile wife; his life had been made miserable by the Empress Dowager, and she'd been the one to assign the marriage. Ryan Cheng shone in his portrayal of a bitter, suspicious husband. The struggle for him to accept and understand Ye Li was the most engaging part of the drama. I especially enjoyed when he was secretly observing Ye Li: his quizzical looks when she was talking to herself; his amused looks when she was being endearing; and his tender looks when she was interacting with his family.

Many dramas instantly "heal" trauma when the protagonist faces her fears and embraces reality. Ye Li confronted the horrible truth of what had happened to her, and she accepted that she'd led a life of fantasy in order to cope; she would be able to maintain a seemingly normal life (with the support of loved ones) from then on. But she was far from normal. As long as she had the love of Xiu Yao and life went well, she could function well. But nobody better impinge on her loved ones, or I believe her psychopathic tendencies would lead her to remedy the problem by making them fertilizer for her flowers.

The OST was outstanding. I loved the song song "Love isn't Just Romance."

Good concepts/character with poor execution

Pros:

- The leads are refreshingly unconventional for a historical drama. The female lead struggles with mental health issues, while the male lead lives with a disability. Watching them confront challenges that most people could never fully understand made them compelling characters.
- The plot twist involving the monkeys and Linshan Mountain was genuinely surprising and well executed.
- The first half of the drama is excellent. The female lead methodically puts her revenge plans into motion, and her eccentric personality and unusual habits make her stand out from typical heroines. The retelling of the beginning from different perspectives was good.

Cons:

- The breakup and divorce arc near the end was baffling and made the male lead come across as petty and hypocritical. After the female lead healed his legs, restored happiness to his family, and cleared the injustice surrounding his clan, he decides to divorce her over a mistake committed by her mother. The reasoning simply doesn't hold up. First, he was also responsible for the military mistake that caused those cities to fall, so he has little moral high ground. Second, he insists he doesn't want her to stay out of pity, only to turn around and pity her himself after learning the truth. Finally, after everything she sacrificed and accomplished for him, casting her aside so quickly felt completely undeserved and made it difficult to sympathize with him.
- I know white-haired male leads are a popular trope, but the look just didn't suit him.
- Too many side characters contributed little to the story while taking up valuable screen time. Characters like the dowager concubine, FL's naive sister, the assassin who never won a fight, and the evil marquis's son added very narrative value and left so much unresolved.

Overall:
An average drama with a strong and promising first half that ultimately squandered its potential through a frustrating final act.

Should Have Named This "The Overdose of Lishan Tragedy That Fails To Make Space For Anything Else"

Positive Points
1. The cast, especially Bai Lu & Cheng Lei, were just brilliant. Bai Lu probably gave the best performance of her career (at least in my opinion). Cheng Lei was great too, as he always is (though I felt his expressions were all the same in the 2nd half, I blame the writing). The cinematography felt smooth and natural. Though not overly artistic, the flow of the story felt natural. I liked that the editors chose not to overuse the filters so that it does not become distracting. The editing was consistent, though at the end of each episode, it felt like it ended abruptly. The OST was not that melodious, but it suited the vibe of the drama.
2. The female lead was written really well, and her being actually mentally ill gives it a fresh touch. The storytelling was so good for the first half. I love a smart FL always. Even if the drama might not be up to my liking, Bai Lu did not disappoint me with her character choice as always.
3. The action scenes were very limited and few, but the choreography was done exceptionally well, which felt engaging and entertaining. The parallel of the past and present in the action scenes was done brilliantly. That little duel with the flower branch between the 2 leads was a cherry on top.

Negative Points
1. What happened to Mo Xiu Yao’s character? Though the ML was made more realistic in the drama version, the main focus was that Mo Xiu Yao, though physically constrained to a wheelchair, was nowhere near considered weak. All the antagonists were afraid of him. He certainly was not someone who was at the mercy of the FL. Even in the drama version, his character was portrayed as a broken, worn-out, but a man who was strong and resilient at the start. I absolutely hate when ML/FL is suddenly made pitiful and weak deliberately to glorify the brilliance and compassion of the other lead (ML/FL). Drama Mo Xiu Yao was at his lowest point, and his struggles were relatable to me until he got healthy again. After that, his character felt more like he got sidelined to me. The divorce arc, though necessary, felt like it was done to make the FL pitiful. The ML behaved a bit out of character in my opinion (that arc I felt completely contradicts his character shown in the earlier part of the drama). A female-centric or male-centric, whatever drama it is, should not make the other ML/FL weak or make him/her suddenly do terrible out-of-character things just to make the viewers pity the main lead. Unless the story demands and a character is weak right from the start, I absolutely hate such deliberate foul play. Here in the Lishan track, Mo Xiu Yao felt too rational and calm to me in his actions. The FL here is all in all square and never needs the ML to do anything, even when she is almost executed in a false murder case. The writers promoted companionship, and although I felt it initially, it later felt missing. The only character that the writer wrote properly was the FL. The ML was written halfway, but probably the writer lost interest or forgot about him. The ML’s 2 most important problems in life were solved by the FL. The writers should have at least shown cooperation and scheming between the 2 leads for recovering that lost edict. That edict is more important to Mo Xiu Yao than Ye Li, honestly. Initially, though the dynamics between the leads were good, but later the writing suffered, and it became a cliché in my opinion. By the time I reached towards the recovery of the lost imperial edict, I felt the charm of the lead’s relationship was gone. I found their divorce arc and the rest of the plot poorly written. It started really well, but it was, as usual, like many other dramas lost the momentum and quality writing from the middle. I absolutely love female-centric dramas, but what I love more is complete storytelling where no matter which character was the main focus (Male-centric/Female-centric), all other characters, including the other ML/FL, minor characters, and antagonists, are properly written characters with depth, and they contribute something to the story instead of being written solely with purpose of complimenting or glorifying the ML/FL. They had cast an actor like Cheng Lei as the ML, but completely wasted his potential with shallow writing and failing to make his character add any value to the whole story. Due to the writing, he completely feels like a side character kept solely as the love interest of the FL without contributing anything substantial of his own to the story (screentime is not the issue for me).

2. The finale lacked the action and punch it needed to be considered as a finale (except for some parts of the last episode). This drama seriously lacked a proper antagonist. The main villains did not seem powerful, nor did they seem crazy enough to be considered antagonists. The antagonist Mo Jingli hardly feels like a villain. The Empress Dowager does not feel frightening to me either. I have seen enough dramas that have managed to build a proper antagonist with little screen time who has had enough impact on the overall story. This drama tried to focus more on the moral conscience of the antagonists instead of any proper action. Where did the FL suddenly came from in the middle of a palace coup? Moreover, why include the ML for 1 or 2 moves at the end of the battle scene of Mo Jingli with Ye Li. Either include the ML properly or don’t include him at all. How come, after that glorious defeat, Mo Jingli managed to enter the capital for a palace coup with enough soldiers? How was so many Eastern Palace supporters were spared for them to make a comeback? The military requires a lot of money. How come Mo Jingli, who was so pitiful that he deliberately pretended to be incompetent and foolish, managed to learn so many things? Where did he get the money, or manage to keep such a large army for his purpose, without the knowledge of the Empress Dowager? The politics, twists, and finale were absolutely sloppy. The entire story revolves around Ye Li’s mental illness and the tragedy of Lishan. My personal speculation is that they did not follow the novel at all due to a budget shortage. But if you did not have enough budget for writing a proper battle, climax, or politics to make the finale tense and impactful, then you should not have made this drama in the first place. The producers choose to pick out a novel with heavy warfare and politics, but fail to create any decent twists or politics that are worthy of the finale to save money. Absolutely disappointed.

3. I absolutely hated how the arc of the FL’s mental illness treatment was handled. Mental illness, no matter the reasons, is a serious issue. It does not vanish just like that. The Lishan track felt superficial to me due to such careless writing. It could have been treated better, and it’s not like the drama had a lot to focus on, as they had shamelessly misled the viewers about it being an adaptation of the original novel, while they took absolutely nothing from it except the names of the characters and Mo Xiu Yao’s white hair. Once Ye Li came to her senses and faced the truth of Lishan, her illness was cured just like that. The writers created such a melodramatic divorce arc and made the ML chase the FL to Lishan with white hairs but as soon as they came face to face, all the ML says is that “The past graviences has nothing to do with the FL” and baam the divorce issue gets completely forgotten by all. Even after her memory came back, they did not have a proper talk to sort it out.

4. Princess Ling Yun was shown as such an intelligent woman who absolutely did not trust her maid, Su Zui Die. How come she was suddenly killed by her like that? It felt absolutely odd. How come Mo Xiu Yao did not know anything about his wife being framed for murder? Mo Xiu Yao’s best friend and his family did not inform Mo Xiu Yao about his wife being in such serious trouble. The FL manages to get the supposed to be super intelligent but actually suddenly foolish ex-fiancé of her husband to publicly confess everything so that she can be captured (who plotted for years and murdered the super smart princess and framed another super-intelligent princess consort).

PS. It’s a request to the drama makers not to promote the dramas as an adaptation of a novel when they, for whatever reasons, won’t take anything from the novel except for the names. It’s completely misleading and highly disappointing to the novel readers who got hyped over nothing. This drama deviated so much from the novel that it should probably be called an original script instead of a novel adaptation.

PS. Though I did not want to mention the novel, if the Novel Mo Xiu Yao watched the action of the drama Mo Xiu Yao (especially towards Ye Li), he would have slapped him from dawn to dusk and might even chase him with a sword to kill him (Probability is 1000%).
