if info is right Wu Jin Yan is 33. you people saying 'she looks pretty young' in a way, like she is over 40.

it is Wang Xing Yue done good for closeting the gap. and also do not forget Wu Jin Yan is a veteran in industry

this drama is a adaption of a novel, like many adaption this drama will might have similar problem,

as cast organize for this drama, i think it will be 90% focused on FL only. 10% for every one,

i don't know how was Hong Kong adaptation, I just hope they will give a good character development for FL

i liked EP1-2 and Crystal Liu perfectly delivered her character.

sorry to say it isn't understatement.
1. by time Wu Zetian declarer herself Emperor, she already had all the power of Emperor. yes i understand why she had to declarer herself Emperor. but by time Wu Zetian declarer herself Emperor, for her it just adding a TITLE.
2. if I'm not wrong, in history of asia first or only female, Razia Sultana of Delhi Sultanate take the thorn by entering from front door. Razia Sultana take the thorn as her father heir. unfortunately for Wu Zetian she take the thorn by entering from back door.

around 3 to 4 year

dad's concubine, son's legal wife, stepdaughter name it it's happened,
it's rare but not uncommon

just Empress Wu Zetian reached highest level

very enjoyable drama. No hangki panki.
i wish it had end at EP 29, last scene was very powerful one.

even though i've no problem with EP30. but a lot thing they huddle together in least EP A LOT.
if it was ending, they should begin this from middle of EP 29.

yes I'm also love to see and waiting see a more complex layered villain.
most villain we see are more plain villain, some even more like born villain.

but I'm afraid, when ever they added complex villain, they tend to destroy story line, even character itself, or they begin to add annoying thing to story line.

recently they did fantastic job with Wang Li Kun's character in The Legend of Zhuohua
not too much complex but layered. with more and less good back story

HA HA HA Delulu Idiots

it may or may not, we will see, maybe she is some jealous woman in love with power

exactly it is, up to now what we see it is not seem like some jealous woman in love more like psychopath

NOPH. historically both princes and princesses always use as a tool for peace treaties.
They create problems once they are in love.
this is true for both princes and princesses
only different is princesses had to leave there home or country. princes do not

i don't know what waiting for us, in my opinion The Grand Princess might be go thought something horrible during her time as hostage
no political hostage treated well by there host country.
up to now what we see Princess Wan Ning is a psychopath

i don't know what waiting for us, in my opinion The Grand Princess might be go thought something horrible during her time as hostage
no political hostage treated well by there host country.

up to now what we see Princess Wan Ning is a psychopath

i was thinking same thing, it is a 24 ep drama and they still going with annoying approach of FL,
no matter what they do next in my opinion they already ruined FL's character

i saw her in many good drama as a Support Role, like she is in every were.
that scene made realize why she is in every were.
actor or actress like her never become what we understand Main Lead.
you mention one line of Minglan, that one line made significant because of Gao Lu's fantastic delivertion.

it only Ep8-9, it doing fantastic.

profile picture
originally i wanted pick a funny one, i have no idea how end up with this one
and i came to like it.

i understand and know what are you saying.

but Ep 1 in a way completely detach from resat of Drama. Only when Xu Hong Dou visit her friend parent and her grave had any touch with Ep1

it is more like Drama maker wanted to make it that way or they wanted give Chen Nan Xing a good and emotional screen time

Gao Lu did a fantastic job for her last scene.
