No, the whole drama has been leaked since the 18th of March. It only got posted to this new sites today. In 4k.

You, me and all commenters on their weibo and rednote pages.
They didn't even dare to post about the drama breaking 10500 heat index.

Only successful ones

I don't know, but everyone in the comments is mad at iQIYI because people pay for the subscription and they weren't able to prevent the leak before the drama finished airing.

On weibo it's the #1 trending topic, and iQIYI wouldn't even post about the show breaking 10500 heat today.

Transmigration is very heavily regulated in cdramas because they want to prevent children believing that by injuring themselves they can travel into another world.

No, chinese subtitles

So that is where those photos came from. Some of them did look like they were screenshots from a video. It makes sense now.
I'm so upset for the PoJ team.

What does netflix have to do with it? It's just a distribution platform. The production companies will be the unhappy ones.

There might be short clips, but not the whole episodes.

They are not on weibo

They could have broken a lot of records. They were really close to 55% viewership (#2 place in history)
They have great heat index, but there are a lot of successful dramas with better indexes

The emperor had preferred another son to be his heir (the 16th prince), but crown prince was capable, heroic and admired by all so he was hard to put aside.

17y ago, while crown prince and general Xie (ML's dad) were fighting, prince 16 and general meng were supposed to bring supplies and reinforcements. However, prince 16 wanted to attack the enemy against general Meng's advice and got captured. General Meng asked for advice from the emperor since he now needed to go into 2 directions at once.

The emperor sent Wei Yan to general Meng with the tiger tally, but on his way found out the crown princess consort needed help and went back to the capital, leaving Wei Qilin the tiger tally and a letter from him to general Meng informing him of the plan.

General Meng was supposed to rescue prince 16, and Wei Qilin was supposed to ask Changxin to assist crown prince with the supplies and reinforcements.

But prince 16 died, and Changxin declined saying the tiger tally was a forgery.
General committed suicide and Wei Qilin and his wife ran away.

I read the novel.

Former emperor was bad and ministers wanted to make him step down and let Crown Prince Chengde become emperor. Wei Yan contacted Crown Prince about this, but he wasn't sure if he wanted to depose his father. Emperor found out and conspired with Lord Changxin to remove Crown Prince and his line from the inheritance.

Wei Yan, general Meng and Wei Qilin were framed, but Wei Yan managed to switch thing around and depose the emperor and install one of his younger sons instead after Crown Prince died in the massacre

Someone who was part of the process and had access to the finished product. For example, people on the translation teams.

I'm so upset for the team that worked on this project and I am not even involved. They must be feeling horrible

Damn. The leak apparently happened on the 18th of March
