The first arc is fantastic so its upsetting to compare. If the writer would have felt comfortable with Morr time then they should really have split this in 2

I feel like there were a lot of comedic scenes we didn’t need to see to make time for that character building that was cut out. I the first arc of the show doesn’t feel unbalanced with the comedy but the second part does. The scenes with the emperor are particularly unnecessary or longer than they need to be for the sake of comedy. This sort of story would have certainly benefited from focusing on the seriousness of the main plot line while keeping a few funny moments here and there. There were too many scenes that needed buildup we didn’t get just for us to get the
emperor instead.

If I didn’t watch the episodes myself, I would have thought because of many comments here, that Chang Yu grew two heads instead of just a more stubborn backbone. There’s certainly some development that’s missing and we didn’t get to see but it isn’t that bad 💀

I skimmed the novel a bit and didn’t see any story about the leads having twins, but I’ve seen in the chat that they apparently did. Where can I read about this part?

Question for the novel readers

If the princess doesn’t give Gongsun enough stress, she won’t be happy😂

Congratulations!!

Does anyone please have the downloadable epub version of this book

omg that would be niiiice

I see what you mean about the writing. That's a good point.

Ooh. Okay. But, won't the production company already have received pay for having their show distributed by the other platforms? Or does that happen after

I wonder who will be held responsible for this. Netflix will not be happy

Tough so far, Tian Xi Wei’s acting is phenomenal, and she makes everything believable. When she saw General He knelt there, I really could have been there with her in that moment. No expression ever out of place or questionable.

I preferred episode 30 to 29 by far. The flow of events and shots in 29 was not seamless as they could have been.

I particularly have an issue with the scene where Yuan Hai comes to get Qian Qian. I have a big gripe with that scene. I knew a commander was following behind her for protection, but that many men? on horses? And even if there were that many men, wouldn’t they be more scattered around the forest to prevent her from noticing them? I can find a reason that it happened like this, but the fact that I can question it so strongly makes me feel that it was poorly executed.

The next shot was of Changyu and Qian Qian sitting and talking. The shot simply cut to them, and that may have been fine, but the position of the camera was too close up, imo. It felt like someone had said to them, “Sit here now, we’ll film both of you talking.” The natural progression of events/scenes was lacking in episode 29.

In contrast, 30 doesn’t really suffer from the same choppiness and is pretty good. The show also doesn’t let us see enough about the army’s plans or formations. They cut too many parts out that would have really beefed up the believability of the story. After Huai An was hurt and out of the battle, there were too few people running with her back into the city. Of course, her 4 buddies and maybe a few others? But too few others. They were much more just after Huai An was knocked out.
Then, that scene with Xie Zheng and Prince CH in ep 29, too. Awful. Simply a travesty. I have no words.

I’ve noticed this choppiness before, and it will definitely affect my rating of this.

My girl Chang Yu has suffered, and there’s Yuan Hai playing everyone, especially his brother, like a string. I almost felt sorry for him. But I couldn’t because, Mandi…Mandi was so young. I wouldn’t have let him come with me if I were Changyu. But I know that if it hadn’t been him, then it would be someone else. War is a terrible thing.

It’s okay for Huai An to be angry. I know the General was like a father to him. Though I still think he would have died if he kept going.
