If they're living peacefully then that's not a tribulation. They're supposed to go to the mortal world, make hard choices and suffer and that suffering would refine their soul and help them ascend to the next level of godhood. That's what a tribulation actually is.

Because they were living peacefully for more than 60 years (judging from how old Meng Chi was) they didn't make any progress in their ascension. That's more than the average lifespan they would have lived if they sealed their powers before coming to the mortal world (and they would probably have ascended faster if they chose to do it that way because they would have actually suffered).

Their love tribulation has only just started because Bai Jiusi is tired of covering for Hua Ruyue and nothing is going to stop her from showing compassion to humans...not even her love for him.

She wrote the Princess Agents novel and she's the screenwriter for shows like The Demon Hunter's romance, Arsenal Military Academy and Love and Destiny

I have no predictions tbh

I think it's a Youku drama

It finally passed review! I'm so excited!!

Her snobbish grandma and greedy aunt have the worst judgment and are arranging marriages with terrible men for all the daughters in their family. They only care about their family's status and reputation.

I really love that most of the actors weren't dubbed over and that they're using their OG voices from the filming set.

It's her voice. She dubbed herself in a drama after a really long time of using voice actors

There's probably some romance but it's not the main genre of the story

It was Flourished Peony..Yang zi and Li Xian's drama. It must have been a very hard choice to turn down an S+ drama with A-listers because it rationally might have brought him more recognition than Blossom (which people didn't expect to be so successful) but I'm glad it worked out so well for him in the end

The novel this drama is based on was written before the LLTG novel

I dunno how true this is. The word on douban is that his agency is defunct and he has been running his own personal studio since then. Probably take this with a grain of salt

Shouldn't Miao Ansu and her husband be granted a new residence to go with her new status as a Princess? Why is she living in the Ying compound if she's of a higher status than the Duke?

I'm really hoping this means they're planning a reunion drama for them

True but I still believe the set up was better in the book.

I know Song Han has always been meant to be one of the show's villains but I think it would have been better if they kept his backstory in the book instead of changing it to what it currently is in the show. His late turn into villainy in the 3rd Act of the show isn't very convincing and it doesn't make much sense to continue to go down that path of since his father, the major contributor to his misfortune is dead. While, it's okay to show that he has some resentment for Song Mo for destroying his fantasy of having an idyllic family by refusing to stop investigating their father's involvement in Madam Jiang's death, in my opinion, the motivation for outright villainy just isn't enough here.

The Emperor waived the mourning period for him

They're probably trying to ease us into the incoming angst fest

I think it's your own opinion that facts and numbers don't care about. The fact is that this drama is great judging by the rave reviews it's receiving here and on Douban. Besides the number of people watching it domestically already speaks for itself.
Your initial complaint was about the ML simping and now it's about the plot twist not being good enough. I dunno what you're watching but the plot hasn't even advanced far enough for there to be a plot twist. If you want to validly criticize a drama then at least give constructive criticism

If you enjoy male harem dramas then watch Joy of Life, Immortal Ascension or Guardians of the Dafeng. I dunno why you're complaining that the FL lead has a lot of admirers in a drama targeted to the female audience
