They really fumbled the ending that hard?!
So their king abdicates just so he can go to a football match with his wife in matching outfits? Seriously?!
Episodes 11–12 are peak idiocy.
They might as well make a drama where a chaebol gives up all his money just so he can eat fast food on the street with his wife.
This is the worst ending. Even worse than The King: Eternal Monarch.
The writer is awful! Take his computer away and exile him to the mines. He should never be allowed to write again. Spare this world from stupid, terrible scripts.

Writing endings this idiotic should be considered a crime.
Even killing the characters off would have been more merciful than turning them into such flat, stupid fools.

With one stroke of the pen, they killed all the logic and all the charm of the drama.

I can’t even express one hundredth of how disappointed I am.

They noticed the wrong “crown” and the wrong “crying out,” but somehow didn’t notice the gaping logic hole where the king suddenly can’t do anything at all?

The drama clearly had two writers.
One is wonderful. He wrote dialogues, wonderful picks. What's in the Aroma, what's in the Double. The other is an idiot with a brain amputee.
As an example of idiocy:
The guards grab Zhongshulin's daughter with their paws.
The security guard invites the object of protection to go out to the raging crowd.
The hungry are fed steamed buns with meat, which are brought from another city?!
The hungry people, who almost destroyed the cart with people in search of food, ignore the distribution of food.
And this kind of idiocy is HALF of the drama.
To be honest, I had to manage to ruin a wonderful book (The Double) in such a way.
Terrible screenwriter.

Brilliant! Hit of 5 last years...
Everything is great here. Visual elements in the form of sets and costumes, and amazing... no GREAT acting.
Unbelievable drama. I recommend it to all lovers of fairy tales. I don't remember anything better... What a deep story. How the characters are developed... constantly rushing from sympathy to anger. From happiness to hate.
Best story so far.

Amazing sweet story! ~_~

Super boring.

It sucks. As good as they were in the modern drama, they are just as terrible here, especially compared to other serieals.

His Russian fans in a group of other actors are hating to praise Tang Jiang.

See the costumes and sets at Yansi and Shii. that's where the beauty was, and here is the middle level.

a producer who doesn't understand the difference between films? That ... says a lot about his "professionalism"
It looks like he's just a wallet that doesn't see the difference at all.

I'm a big Allan fan, but this is not his best role. The script is also frankly weak. Not comparable to Masks. So the rating is done by two huge fandoms. For example, Bistro (it got into the rating without fandoms and stayed for several weeks after the end of the show, this is a success)
I'm looking forward to the modern part, maybe it will revive the drama.

I like the DataWin and LinkAge ratings

look in Chinese)

You've noticed that every costume drama starts with a foreword. A long time ago, in ancient times it was so and so.
This is a silly rule of modern Chinese novels. It very often spoils the plot. Just think, if this introduction hadn't been there, and in the course of the plot, the facts about where this strange girl came from would have been revealed to us. Then it would be much more puzzling and interesting. In Western literature, this is considered unprofessional.

Hi, I come here usually once a week, so I apologize for keeping you waiting for an answer.
1 - That's it! "She did not see who hit" What do you mean I did not see ??? There are a lot of people everywhere, someone saw a girl come in to them, if only she did not descend from the sky. In order not to draw attention to herself, she had to walk with an open face. In ancient times, people were curious and every new face was examined. Surely they should have stopped her and asked who she came to, why? And here we are asked to come up with something to close this huge hole in the plot.
Servants could not take anyone else under a veil. At least 1 of them should have known the musician by sight. They did not take her to the square to play, but to the mansion of a high-ranking official, where other big people gathered, who annoyed many. How could they take anyone? This is absurd!


2 - Yeah. He would be allowed to sleep with her. It's not nice if the son is known as a playboy, but he would be forgiven for this connection. Like getting married - settling down. But he COULD NOT marry whoever he wants. COULD NOT. This never happened in Europe or Asia. The concept of marrying whom I want is generally modern. For aristocrats, marriage was nothing more than a UNION of clans. How could they leave their beloved son without the support of a strong family ???
For his own good, he would have been married to some princess. And no "I want" would work here. He could choose from those whom he was introduced to. And the artist could only be taken as a concubine. Marries a girl from a disgraced family, to take her as the main wife, and not as a concubine, this is essentially to spit in the face of the emperor. Well, no one would do that.
And yes, historically there is so much nonsense here that I just couldn't look further.
If the director of the painting had not declared that it was historical, I would not have judged it harshly. But he also announced that it was better than Yancy! This is nonsense!

3 - I generally keep quiet about exams. The era of Ming in the yard. A woman could ONLY act through her husband and father. ALL.
And yes, I'm saying, if someone hadn't put Parcha and Yancy, I wouldn't have written anything.
This is not the worst costume drama ever. But it is not historical (!!!).
For a costumed, romantic comedy, everything is not even bad here.

1- Attacking an elderly woman in the Ming era is like killing a child in the main square today.
First, the heroine attacks the weak, justifying this with a strange duty. Intrusion into the mansion of a high-ranking official was punishable by torture and death. It's STUPID that he saved her. Not a single normal official would succumb to persuasion.
She's a potential assassin or spy. For the disclosure of secrets, the ENTIRE clan, with the elderly and children, could suffer. How could an intelligent son of a family, who himself works as an official (a judge like?), Could simply substitute the whole family because of his beautiful face ?! Is he a clinical idiot?

2- 2 - the protection of the courtyard of the officials in power looked like a presidential palace.
No one could bring the strange woman in the veil. They wouldn't let her. At least a couple of servants had to make sure she was who she said she was. The servants who drove her had to make sure that they were putting the right person. Confuse the old woman and the young one ?? Do you understand what they would have been killed for? I'm not kidding, for such negligence (bringing a potential murderer into the house) the servants would be beaten to death.

3 - romance is good (and I love it), but if the drama is declared historical, you need to take into account the historical reality at least a little.
The son of a high-ranking official could not marry a commoner at will. Marriages were political alliances of clans. He could sleep with her, he could ask his father to take her as a concubine. But is he suddenly getting married? On a rootless actress? nonsense.

4- Winning the hearts of parents is an interesting topic. Agree. If, for example, she grew up in a family of merchants. Or she was adopted by distant relatives of lower status - that would be correct historically and would not look like a cheap dramatic trick.

if the director had not said that it was cooler than Yancy, I would not have said a word. I like BG actresses, and even ML is not even bad here (although everyone scolds him, he turned out to be a funny young man) And Bai Lu is not bad here.
BUT
I can't shake off being compared to Yancy. It didn't even stand for a second.

That's it. Both Yansii and Shii are both serious, well-written dramas with interesting characters, they look historical (yes, there are a lot of inaccuracies, but the reconstruction of the Ming era with its lotuses, executions and other things from China should not be expected)
But at least they were real smart people. And here is some kind of Thai lacorn. Some stereotyped characters with stereotyped situations.
*cry*

Recommendations for this dtama (The Sword and The Brocade and Yfnxi palace)

let's start with the first episode.
The girl, in order to get into the mansion to a certain villainous prince, HITS a real musician and, UNDER THE VOIL, went to the celebration.
In what madhouse could this happen?
First of all, hitting the older one is an attack for which one could at least lose his arms.
Secondly, who will let someone unclear under the veil ???
This is the house of a big man, not only faces were checked there. The servants knew the man's habits, and here is a whole "star".
Again, the son of a high-ranking official fell in love with some singer and sent her gifts.
Are you out of your mind ??? In the era of MIN ???? Yes, he would have been kicked out of the house for being in touch with the artist.
About the eternal 3 gold chapters (the worst thing that Chinese literature has spawned), I generally keep quiet. This trick is terrible, and only bad writers use it.
They are not just superfluous, they really ruin everything.
And the terrible characters of the characters who contradict themselves in every new scene?
In Yancey and Shii, the characters were perfectly written off. They were real living people, with their own weaknesses and virtues. And here is the template on the template.
She is poor, proud and turns up her nose at the rich hero. (he didn't do anything to her at all !!! Both in Yancey and in Shia, the heroine's dislike for the hero is explained by a number of misunderstandings, but here .... it's empty. She just got into the pose of an offended avenger)
It's enough? (I can still write a lot) This drama is my personal disappointment.
