The reviewer for this show must have been on an absolute power trip. After looking at the stills, they cut out part of the kiss scene too and I also definitely feel like they messed with dub. That’s why the acting is so weird for some characters.

Gotta blame the author. If he had kept his mouth shut, the show wouldn’t have been implicated or cut up as bad as it has been. This result is pretty much 100% his fault. As it is, fans of the actors just have to be grateful the show could even air because usually in these types of scenarios the show gets buried and never aired.

Yoooo,
I was legit smiling feeling good thinking “Yes, no vice couple “ and then they showed up. Went from 🥹to 🙃in an instant.

It seemed like they cut things in that scene too. I remember in the trailer she seems to push Emperor Ming’s hands away from her arms but I didn’t see it.
The fans are still working hard though despite the cuts! They cut a video to show all the angles of the kiss scene in the tidbits. I feel like if some hero just leaked the raw version, the fans would definitely just cut their own series😂😂😂

There’s definitely a kiss scene in tonight’s episode and it was really cute!!! Very inline with their characters.

They’re actually known for being wild af.

Yeah, I’m hooked too. Tbh the only boring part to me is the 2nd leads storyline. Everything and everyone else, I enjoy watching mostly due to the acting.

The triangle has been harmed by the Yi Wuyou cuts😩. Unfortunately rumor has it that most of the shots got cut because they might make him too sympathetic a character (which is what you need for the triangle plot line to work). Also, it seems like this show has romance but it’s the background of a larger story about power and career. From the trailers, if there’s any messy love triangle it’s probably going to be the political battle showdown seen in the trailer.

Lol, it gets better. Yi Wuyou fans are dragging the show for having the heart to say it’s sad that Yezi’s and Yi Wuyou’s relationship broke down.😂

Wow the show runners really bold af. In danger of a sea of pitchforks but telling viewers they can get enough sugar to eat tonight.😂😂😂

Ahhhhh tonight’s stills!!!
Really wish we could post images. The shot of coaxing Emperor Ming and angry Bai Lu looks so good. Every time I have my pitchfork ready, the sweetness between them gets me to put it down😩😩😩

There was one but it was cut.

Nope no second part. In fact it was 36 episodes cut down to 25.

Censorship has the final say if you want to broadcast I guess. Web dramas like this used to not be as strict but the belt tightened around them too a few years ago. It would be a shame if this version was the only version because they used to release different versions for overseas. Apparently a Korean channel bought the rights and I know they’ve ended up with different versions in the past.

I think it actually was supposed to be slow burn in the original too but we were supposed to see a smoother transition of Yezi liking Emperor Ming because at first she was out for revenge.
This show really is a shame because every now and then you can sense the quality it was supposed to have. The crew involved are being tactful about it but the director has low-key said the cuts affected the quality but it can’t be helped.
What I don’t get is why the cuts have to affect the foreign distribution? Within the country fine but why can’t a different version exist if it’s going overseas?

I think she falls back in love with him/gets back with him when she falls under the curse or when he faints after they have a major fight.

I saw that and was like “I KNEW IT”. I guess the Yebei battle must have partially been the result of that too because Yebei would have felt it had nothing to lose if A’Rui died.
I also think even without the dad, Yi Wuyou would have lied. He seems to be very into Yezi though we haven’t been able to see why. Although I will also say I don’t get the dad’s attachment to Yi Wuyou if he follows fate/omens for everything else.

I really can’t understand why they cut so much of the main lead’s romantic storyline. It’s basically what is saving this show outside of poor Yi Wuyou fans. I get we lost a lot of the plot to censorship but I don’t believe the censors cut the romantic bits. I feel like that was production or Youku and they’re hiding behind the excuse of censorship.
We’ll supposedly get a kiss in episode 20 but I’m skeptical. It really feels like they wanted to keep the main leads relationship ambiguous to attract more fans but it seems to be doing the opposite.

I heard the vice couple are people from the production company so some people are complaining because they feel they’re using the show and the popularity of the leads to sell the 2nd couple instead. It is a bit outrageous though. I’ve never seen a drama calendar include kiss scenes or weddings of the vice couple. If the big wedding icon turns out to be them, I feel the drama might hit 9000 because people will be complaining so much in the barrage😂

I like Yi Wuyou but it’s hard to judge him because there’s so few of him. I feel really bad for the actor’s fans because they’ve been really sweet and supportive of the show even though it’s cut 98% of their fav’s story.
I thought the TruthMasters looked human. I swear the ones Bai Lu met as a kid were old dudes. Maybe they look like aliens then😂.
And I don’t know what’s up with the 2nd couple but they’re really pissing viewers off.
