I am hearing all kinds of things about this producer and her jealousy. That is so crazy and vindictive. What a way to ruin an awesome drama, because of your petty jealousy. That should never be brought to the work place and I think that actress (the maid) should sue.

As far as I know, the queen, BFX, and Chang's man servant are the only ones who know.

It is so frustrating that these people won't talk to each other. Prince Chang and Prince Lanxi have been close brothers since young and yet they won't tell each other anything. They are both keeping secrets. If Chang only went to Lanxi and told him that his mother was manipulating him and forcing this marriage by revealing his medical secret, etc. Lanxi would surely find a way to fix it. Ugh!! I hate when there is so much lack of communication, it only means something is going to happen that could have been prevented.

Also, I know it is overdubbed, but does anyone else think the queen sounds like a snake when she talks?

I don't think he did. I think he mentioned somewhere that he just married her for politics and so he could gain the throne easier.

yeah so far I am getting that too. I hope they start moving the story away from Yongzhou soon, because it is getting tedious and annoying.

I volunteer as sacrifice to kill the queen.

Just started watching new episodes, am they finally answered a question I have been thinking about. If Baili had come from a humble/servant background how on earth did the officials allow the king to make her queen? You almost never see that happen. He explains that he argued with the officials for 6 months. I still am surprised she got to be queen, especially having no backers at the time. ( I know she does now ). Also, loved how she messed up the ceremony and the thunder happening while she was up there. Hopefully, she will be gaining a lot more enemies. Anyway, back to watching the new episodes.....

Yeah if it is a good drama, I do too. Like Rise of the Phoenixes and Rebel Princess and sort of The Story of Ming Lan.

Sword Snow Stride was definitely more story driven than love. It had a bit of a that in it, but it wasn't in your face and I loved SSS and I usually am a more romantic story driven, I was so impressed with SSS. I will be going back and watching it again soon.

I have been told that. I have tried to watch it, cause I like Xu Kai in costume dramas as well (The Legends). I just can't get past the main female lead, she just really gives me a sour note about watching the drama. I don't know why, cause I have tried to watch it, even with a few of my favorite actors in it.

It looks like Master of my Own is going to be on Viki as well. It said it would start airing it in 4 days.

I am so glad. I am on the first episode and trying to watch the subs on Youtube through Mango is very difficult.

yes, he is one of my favorites too. He is the ML in Jiu Liu Overlord with Bai Lu in case you haven't watched it. He is so good. The first time I saw him was in Fuyao, but he has been in so many others. He played the antagonist in The Flame's Daughter. He was in The King's Avatar with Yang Yang. I wish he would get more ML dramas, as well.

Yes, but I think they left him back at the main sect. Although, I hope they bring him back into the story, because I loved his and BFX's interactions.

yes, true, I think he doesn't really want to tell the 1st prince everything, because after all there are 3 princes fighting for crown prince and it may come to a point if he tells his brother everything it could be turned against him.

Where has Miss Huan (Lanxi's handmaid) gone? She was there for a couple of episodes and she was obviously at the palace with Lanxi, cause she handed FQW the receipt for the items that were given to BFX. Then we haven't seen her since. ( I was actually wondering if they would show Lanxi confronting her for giving FQW that receipt). Just curious, I am always wondering about characters that they introduce and show and then they just disappear.

YES!!!! 100xs this. I would watch any drama with him in it. The only drama I have watched him in where he played the main lead, was Jiu Liu Overlord with Bai Lu (whom I also love to follow).
Edit: I do like watching Yang Yang dramas and think he is a great actor, but I would watch and pick Leon Lai or Zhang Zhe Han ( I hope he comes back soon) in any drama over him, if I had to. :)

I like both, but yes the plot and intrigue drive the story and it is good. I think without the love story this still would be a great drama.

Ok I hope I word this how I want and it sounds convincing. Please excuse me if I mess anything up, typing on my phone right and I usually type from my computer. Lol.

I know there has been a lot of back and forth discussion on whether HFX knows BFX 's real identity. At first, I was really really was under the impression that he really doesn't know that she is the princess he keeps talking about. (And he still may not know) BUT!! after reading comments and really watching the drama I think he does know. Here are my reasons:

1. Reading a comment in which someone said "HFX is the leader of the Abode (excuse if i get the name wrong, i always forget it) Sect and they know everything." Which watching the drama you can tell they do know everything. HFX has said they have hidden locations in almost every major city, etc. How can he not know she is the princess.

2. The interactions from the two. He is really drawn to her to the point of "love" and caring. He drops hints imo, like when he mentioned how he likes the princess's poetry or his meeting in the room with the protraits of the lords, etc. I think he does that to see if she will take the bait and reveal her identity.

3. The most recent episode where he could cut all the strings but his attachment to hers. Unless he only admires the princess and loves BFX (not knowing they are one in the same, only if he doesn't know)

Anyway that is my summary or thoughts. I wouldnt be surprised if her reveal is just as lowkey as his was because of him already possibly knowing.
