I really wish they would put more efforts in PWX's backstory. It's really hard to relate to his complete devotion to FL.

We never got to see how he fell in love with her. Be it in the first or present life... I feel there would've been so much potential in ML's character if his motivations would be further developed...

I mean he's definitely manipulative and schemes in his own interest, but the leads are the same... They act in their own interests too and try to manipulate situations from happening.

Can we blame him for trying to change the crown prince by any means necessary after his family was massacred in the first life?

I watch dramas for all characters and the overall story, not just the leads, so I guess I'm not prejudiced to any character per se.

SRQ is definitely not a saint and acting in his own interests (gaining power and try saving his family), but can someone blame him after what happened to him and his family in first life?

Also the leads are not that much better imo. Lots of grayish characters in this drama, which I actually prefer :D

I'm on episode 23 and can someone explain to me why there's so much hate toward SRQ? I'm watching the same drama, but it feels like I'm experiencing different emotions. I want to understand your perspective 😂

Is there another obvious reason besides him killing her in their first life? The FL also killed the ML, but you guys have no problem shipping them lol

I actually find SRQ more complex and interesting than the ML so far. At the beginning of episode 23, we see again how horribly the entire Su Family was massacred and how SRQ was castrated. I still pity him and am not surprised that he turned out twisted and obsessive considering what he went through.

He's no angel, but it feels like there's automatic default hate because he's labeled the "second male lead."

I don't ship him with Li Rong, but I actually like his story and find his character engaging. To me it seems like the writers spent much more time and depth showing SML's past, inner thoughts and feelings than they did for the ML.

I wish the writers had put the same effort into the ML's emotional world. Why do I feel like something is lacking? I want to understand his devotion for FL, but I fail to do so... I'm not on board of any couple in this drama so far haha 😂

I'm excited but not ready for the heartache 😭 Not sure if my fragile heart will be able to watch season 2 while it's airing. I feel like I'm better off binge-watching this, like a band-aid that you rip off fast, so it hurts less 😂💔

Yea, me too!

I recommend to watch her in "Stand by Me". In my opinion it's the best drama she starred in and her acting is phenomenal in that one.

They are friends :)

Trailer looks so goooooood! Excited for this one :D

Ep 27 and 28 were pretty much filler episodes. Sad, because the episodes of the last few days were so good and today's episodes were a complete snorefest imo 😅

I wish they would fill these filler episodes more with Bie Li & Sai Er scenes tho lol Third couple not really interesting for me, but I love leads and second couple...
Suo Luo & Liu Ruo Qian are my least favourite couple.

This is honestly really good and funny :D Started this without any expectations and it turned out really enjoyable so far! 😊

Both couples are so adorable, I can't stop smiling while watching this drama ❤️

Who knew I'd grew to love Shang Bie Li that much? He was such an annoying and loud prick in the beginning. Now he's a loud sweetheart 😆

Not him complaining about the well-made food. That was HILARIOUS 😂
"Why does this fish dish have fish? Why is the tofu so soft?" LOOOOOOL I laughed so hard! He's already had over heels for her and actually not really subtle about it. But our adorable Sai Er is too oblivious haha

I also found it funny how one of the Jinwu Guards in the back was carrying Sai Er's stuff when Bie Li accompanied her to Blossom Beauty. They all have to serve their hopefully soon-to-be sister-in-law already 😂

I was laughing so much at Bie Li's antics complaining about the well-made food but then the writers decided that the comedy is over 😭💔 Why?

Ep. 21 and 22 were really hilarious and so good! I feel this drama got so much better, I'm glad I kept watching 😊

"Why should I be jealous of you. Because your nose is fake?"lol I love them and their new found bromance. The whole investigation crew is hilarious!

sry for the comment spam haha I'm commenting while watching xD

The writers really were able to make me love all three couples in this drama 😁

But I'm still hella suspicious of Liu Ruo Qian... I hope he doesn't turn out to be a bad guy, because I will feel bad for Suo Luo then.

Ep. 21 was hilarious and they're so CUTE! Gosh, I really liked the last few episodes!
Our leads already acting like an old married couple and being so natural at casual skinship. I love them! Nan Xing is such a refreshing FL! She's so good at counter backs and never fails to disappoint me with her witty responses lol

Also I really love the relationship of Xin Bai's mom and her husband. They kinda cute haha And even though he is Xin Bai's step-father, they have a really good relationship. That's pretty rare to see.

Rewatching this right now and still like it~ ❤️
I don't like political and war dramas at all and usually skip or fast-forward all the political stuff, but I really don't know why it never bored me in this drama. Maybe, because I managed to understand all the strategies, hierarchies, tribes/lands and war characters in this one?

I'm an avid romance watcher and even though there is not a lot of romance here, I liked the built-up with the leads. I realized once more that I don't need skinship or kiss scenes, but a well-developed and balanced relationship is all I need sometimes :D

I think Xin Bai's mother does like Nan Xing and also her together with Xin Bai. Because there was one scene where Xin Bai and Nan Xing walked side by side and his mother was smiling at them lovingly in the back ...

But the mom is still a spoiled and immature royal, so I guess she tried to punish her for "deceiving" her about the fake marriage. But when she "succeeded" to bully her out of the city, I bet she felt guilty and sad.

I know it's difficult and you have another "view" of this drama when you're a novel reader, but I comment and feel on things that JUST happened in the drama, so I don't see why novel readers try to explain things through novel scenes, when it never happened or indicated in the drama yet.

The same happened a lot when TTEOTM aired and people discussed with their novel and drama view. It can never be the same.

Pls try to understand that drama watchers won't have the same view and don't try to "novel view/opinion" on me, when it never happened or shown in the drama YET. We already know dramas will be made different, so therefore there will be different opinions on scenes and characters.

Here they seemed to have changed some things already. 20 years into marriage instead of 30 years etc. So other things can be changed too...

I know sometimes you just want to give a more in depth information, but I'm just a drama watcher and see and feel things accordingly to what they show me in the drama, so pls don't comment with your novel knowledge if it's not shown in the drama yet. Thanks :)
