LOL .. Xingyue said he only kiss once in this drama.. LOL
And this is the one scene that made him angry during a live broadcast because apparently the wedding scene was cut together (i.e. significantly reduced) even though they had three hours of footage.
Trust me, there will be more episodes, where you have this kind of feeling.
Currently it feels more like, "I need the next episode rn, I don't want to wait anymore. Youku just give us the fucking Fast Track." So I would say, it's damn good.
Screenwriters... Ask them why they have changed it from the book. May be because of the contract as in the copyright…
Even when someone buys the copyright, there can be restrictions within the contract, such as the use of names, certain aspects of the book etc. That is why I said, it depends on what the contract states and that we won't be able to find out.
There were even dramas which needed to change the names of the name last minute, since they realised, that it wasn't included in the copyright - also happened under a Youku production...
Buying rights to something can be very complicated at times...
MDL has it at 40 releasing and I don't think it's possible to have only 36 plot-wise when 34 have already released…
MDL isn't an official source for Chinese dramas. We would either need to check Weibo or Youku.com - on their Chinese website it is still at 40, but even that doesn't mean anything.
There is the doubt, since the episodes are way too long for the current regulations... So we might need to wait until it is finally confirmed.
SYR: "From the day I killed her, aren't I already a shameless person? Your Highness forced me to become such a…
I don't think he was a good person to begin with. No one changes this drastically in a short time, but then we don't know how much time shas passed until he finally kills his wife - or lets say tries too.
He is a villian who literally pities himself and sees himself as the victim, because he has no backbone and doesn't want to admit, that he did it and not the others. He is basically in denial.
i find it weird villians in dramas get an easy end/punishment. is this a China requirement on how dramas depict…
Screenwriters... Ask them why they have changed it from the book. May be because of the contract as in the copyright they bought? I guess, we will never know :(
I know this has been asked soooo many times but.. are we still 36 or 40 episodes?
We simply don't know...
But the schedule below says "To be continued" also on Insta is says the same. So we will see, if we get a new schedule and want to kill Youku either way...
My saying! You slayed it!Totally on you with this point, because the biggest issue is1. He doesn't realise he…
Your points are logical at first glance - at least from my perspective, but we should analyse a few micro-expressions as well as behaviour.
When he stopped, the Palaqin was still a bit further away, so he could have actually gone further. Moreover, he was still quite new at the time and could have used that as an argument. I'm sure that the emperor would have accepted the point. Nevertheless, you are of course right that he should have waited on the side at the time, so I will now go into more detail about his behaviour.
The average reaction time of a human being is 180 miliseconds, which corresponds to 0.18 seconds - for a good gamer this is only a maximum of 5 miliseconds. So if we look at his reaction time until he removes his hand from the princess's, he is clearly above this time at 2 seconds. If you also consider that a person reacts even faster when he finds something unpleasant, his reaction is even more questionable.
When the princess asks him if he had been waiting for her, he turns speechlessly towards his wife and says nothing. My impression is that he looks a little insecure. If someone feels guilty, you naturally have nothing to say. Of course it's possible that Wan Ning wanted to stir up the situation, but you can't sugarcoat his reaction. So my guess is that they got a little closer. It doesn't mean that they already had something, but that they knew each other better than before. An appropriate reaction in this situation would have been to introduce his wife and not to stand there motionless.
For this reason, I evaluated the scene as described above May be this makes it more clear. ^^
"Is your trust reserved for a man of Xiao Heng's standing?If had the same background as him, i wouldnt have to…
My saying! You slayed it!
Totally on you with this point, because the biggest issue is 1. He doesn't realise he is not a victim! He murdered his wife in cold blood! 2. He pities himself all of the time, oh I am such a sad person, because it's all Wan Ning's fault and not mine, I was forced to do so - honestly he has no balls at all 3. He is so full of himself
Kudos to the acting - he nails it in every perspective.
I should stop here, so I share something what I wrote earlier today... Curious about your thoughts... I had a discussion with others, who pittied SYR - therefore I wrote the following.
Okay, let's shed some light on everything we already know about both characters: Wan Ning came to the court from Dai Guo as a pawn, as security that her brother King Cheng wouldn't dare to rebel. In episode 32, she herself said that she longed for a love like XFF and SYR had and wondered if she would have ever found such a love if she had stayed in Dai Guo. Therefore, she was even more curious about what kind of woman SYR had by his side, as this woman had to be at least as pure as he was.
After seeing him for the first time, she was so smitten with him that she even skilfully placed a handkerchief for him to bring back to her. In reality, all we know is that he returned the handkerchief to the princess. That she was surprised that a scholar of integrity like him would dare to exchange a word with her when no one else would. "Everyone avoided me or despised me in secret but he treated me politely."
In episode 12, a flashback was shown during the banquet as he leaves the main hall and is on his way to the carriage where his wife is standing. However, when he sees the princess's palanquin coming, he deliberately stops and immediately turns to her. This already shows an intention that she is important to him in some way, or at least close to him. After all, he could have ignored her - but he doesn't. He waits patiently until the bearers set down the palanquin, then bows. She gets out of the palanquin and asks him if he has been waiting for her. The intention is that they know each other better than they did at the time of the - let's call it - handkerchief incident. So who knows what was going on between the two of them at the time. In the flashback, she even has the opportunity to place her hand on his until he reacts at all. He then turns round to his wife without a word, as if to say, not here.
Afterwards, all we know is that he kills his wife and portrays it as being the princess's idea. However, we don't know what really happened in between, what their relationship looked like, whether they loved each other or whether it had been so toxic from the beginning and how the situation ultimately escalated. The director and the screenwriters therefore give us a lot of room for imagination here.
In fact, he allowed everything that happened to happen because he himself was greedy for more money and power - he even broke his promise to his father.
We also don't know whether the princess threw herself at him, and even if she had, he would have had a choice here too - greed makes everything a rather different.
SYR is a character who pities himself even though he has absolutely nothing to be pitied for - he has no backbone. At the time, he had it in his own hands to decide what was right or wrong and took the immoral path. He killed his wife in cold blood and absolved himself of blame because he was apparently forced to do so. Was he actually forced? We can't say for sure. What we do know is that the princess clearly stated that she didn't want him to kill XFF - again, room for interpretation. She just wanted to ruin XFF's reputation so that no one could object to him demoting XFF and marrying someone else. So killing her was probably more his own decision, even if he was indirectly coerced into it - which doesn't make it any better.
He decided to go down this rabbit hole because he was subconsciously greedy and ambitious - that can also make you blind. In Chinese, you could say that he has become the princess's dog. "δ»ζ―δΈεͺηγ" He even admitted that he got greedy and wanted more.
To sum it all up:: The princess took advantage of him and he did what she indirectly wanted but didn't necessarily say. So in their minds, they are both equally cruel and evil. Both are therefore equally to blame.
He really cared about it.
I broke him down as someone, who always plays the victim card, but yours is thousand times better π
Darling, my hand is cramping, can you please stop holding it so tightly?
And you can clearly see how he relaxes a bit... He was so anxious because of the marriage request.
