Same plot as in previous dramas. I bet the next one is the Younger Madam Jiang will sacrifice her daughter to the Emperor so that the Ye family will have a stronghold in the palace.

Surprisingly, her sister, Concubine Li, was a concubine to the preivous emperor.

No wonder Scholar Shen doesn't like the Grand Princess. She is hideous compared to his wife in character. A woman with no virtue.

OTT, tbh.

Agreed. What surprised me is the husband voted for her. He still has feelings for her.

I guess we just have to put up with ahjumnas playing teenage girls in C-costume dramas these days who can act.

I have one in mind ie. Landy Li who was in The Starry Love. When she pulled the cutie act, I wasn't totally annoyed unlike the one in The Longest Promise. That one made me drop the drama after Epi 2 with her cutie acts.

We sometimes need someone who seizes not gives to deal with corrupt officials.

All men voted for her.

Hahaha.

They would have lost the match. Jiang Li would have to return to the hall.

Be careful about your wish.

OK- almost all the male enemies are in love with Xue Fangfei. Miao!

Both Father Li and Father Jiang squibble like women outside the court hall.

So, Miss Liu is the daughter of Auntie Liu.

I like the qin composition played by Jiang Li in Episode 11.

Impossible. The princess is already a dead meat walking. She is way too stupid for Duke Su and Xue Fangfei. She maybe a princess but not a smart one.

I just can't wait for these two women to meet up.

There are so many good novels from other languages besides the Chinese language.

Xu Jinglei, a Chinese female director, directed a film called Letter from Unknown Woman by Stefan Zweig. A tragic story but a good film.

All these K-male actors age like fine wine.

The Fox Spirit was a disappointment because of my high expectation of the story.

The costumes are way too colourful for me or maybe I can't shake off Yang Mi's Bai Qian off my mind.

I am looking forward to The Legend of the Female General.

Spot on. I can barely watch them together. The pairing doesn't work at all. Chemistry? Zero.

But for my wife is a thieft, the age gap isn't exactly an issue as the ML is only 10 years older than the FL. Unlike the previous drama where the ML is 18 years older than the FL.

The production company simply needs a good novel like Three Lives Three Worlds.

I won't drop the drama so get used to my comments.

I am critical of that drama at the moment.

Why do C-dramas have almost the same storyline? Forced marriage between ML and FL and eventually they are in love and blah blah blah.

We need a good drama which is different from the usual storyline.

Age gap issue again?
