Haha, no I don’t work for them. I just like Xiao Ran and think she should have more presence so I follow marketing and fans posts on Weibo to get the information and post so others can see. Her shows seem to get a lot of bad word of mouth in the beginning so I always try to show how they’re actually performing to boost morale, boost data, or so they don’t get drowned out by critical comments.

Seems like Xiao Ran might be joining the group again! Her schedule for April has her in skills training and some fans think it’s for a new drama.

I feel like it’s the reimagined history and costume elements keeping this drama from airing. That was already a big problem even before the big FBB scandal.

Does Mango advertise? I’ve seen quite a few dramas air on Mango but there never seems to be much hype or advanced notice. I’m interested though because it seems Mango does a lot of low budget but high quality dramas.

Xiao Ran just asked her fans what they would do if NSY came back. Wonder if this is foreshadowing 🧐or Xiao Ran punking fans since it’s April Fools Day😂I’ll never forget the time she told fans she was cutting her hair and they all showed up to the live broadcast the next day like🥲😩🫠😭.

Memory recovery seems to be a gradual process and it was possible her brain was still recovering while at Ning Mansion. Plus she did recall a lot of memories but they were mostly skill based and used for subtle foreshadowing instead of the cliche of an event. After the reveal of Ji Man’s true identity, it is also possible that Ning Mansion was so different that it didn’t trigger any event memories.
For now, I think the episode count is okay. There really hasn’t been much procrastination with the plot compared to other dramas and if the show shortened the journey of the leads getting together, it would have dampened one of the essential elements of the IP.

The A’Lang guy seems to like her but in the book and show, the heroine only likes the hero.

Does anybody who follows Weibo know what’s going with the GMP super talk? Seems like there is a lot of drama in it recently and some longtime members are leaving it, complaining about the atmosphere.

Calling all those getting cavities from the Jinyumantang sugar. Tencent just posted a most popular couples poll on their community page. If you’re a Jinyumantang stan, give Ning Yuxuan and Ji Man a boost in the polls with a vote on Tencent’s Community page:

Yeah,
It’s really weird tbh. It released some official stats when it opened and then went quiet. Even on YouTube , it’s not really promoting the show. There was the initial post and today there was a poll which was obviously carrying private goods. The only show they seem to promote is Royal Rumors. Perhaps the leads in RR are Tencent actors.

It’s the same Director too!

That is kinda how the book goes too.😂 Her business goes under and she just finds a new way to make money. It’s pretty great.

QQ Music is the biggest one, equivalent to ITunes. I’ve never used it though so I’m not sure if foreigners can access it.
Boundless Galaxy is really gorgeous tho. That whole show was such a shame. It was so obvious that it had quality and then Youku destroyed it like that.
I think unless the opportunity is really good, GMP will be the only drama Xiao Ram does like that. I don’t think she likes scripts that torture the heroine. She mentioned receiving a lot of scripts like that but I haven’t seen her in anything similar to GMP. People think she doesn’t pick good scripts because she doesn’t look like Xiao Feng in every show but I’ve noticed all of her heroines have been unique in their own way despite being played by the same person. And they’re all including Xiao Feng independent minded, strong willed girls which I love.

I think a convo is coming according to the trailers but it probably hasn’t happened yet because multiple marriages were normal at the time, she wasn’t interested in being married to Ning Yuxuan at the beginning, and as NSY, she is the principal wife. Being the principal wife puts her a level above Wen Wan. She gets the best of everything and her sons become heirs. I think with everything else going on, Ji man hadn’t thought about it but now after all these attempts, I can’t see her being idle.

SJFY! I liked it so much that I rewatched it everyday for weeks after it aired. Bai Lu was so cute and then elegant and beautiful. And after the pain of GMP, it was nice to see a face as beautiful as Xiao Feng being treated well. I swear I’ve watched the scene where the emperor wakes up and touches Bai Lu’s face 100 times.🤣I’m still pissed the showrunners cut all of her growth arc and all of the romance.
I think the album would be on a Chinese streaming/music app. It’s rare to actually get songs overseas it seems.

Strangely that reviewer seems to have deleted their account after leaving that review…🧐
As everyone else says, it’s a “you have to watch it yourself” drama. I find it entertaining and love it but I understand it has a lot of elements that others don’t understand or don’t like.

I think it reached 23000 and got a post but after that there’s been no news. Fans have been complaining about it because they feel it should have surpassed that figure by now and possibly has but Tencent is keeping mum.

It’s all about personal preference. This show doesn’t work for some. Some didn’t like a bubbly heroine. Some didn’t like a greyish hero. It also had a lot of foreshadowing and set up, which I think a lot of viewers aren’t used to anymore and thought it was plot issues.
Most who didn’t like the drama have left their rating and gone. A lot of those who do like the drama haven’t rated it yet.
I wouldn’t mind the MDL rating. It isn’t one drama investors look at anyway. The show is doing okayish for now in the charts that do count. It has managed to stay in the Top 5 on some popularity charts despite being the only one to be a solo broadcast. It also debuted at #1 on Maoyan and the characters have made it to the Top 3 on Weibo charts and Top 5 on Vlinkage. Peng Xiao Ren was recognised by DataWin. For a show that didn’t have a trailer 3 months ago, it’s really doing well.

Director apparently liked the video so maybe he begged instead😂 It’s a shame they didn’t go with these looks though but I guess they’re too sweet.

Lord Tan also plays Xiao Ran’s father in GMP
