The novel is much better because it fills in the gaps and explains some rushed scenes. I wrote a review if you’re curious about it. I love the actors and actresses and support roles—they all perform very well. I'm not sure if Youku received feedback about cutting too much content, but I hope they did.

Thank you

It can be difficult to be rich and famous. Rumors and jealousy often surround them. However, wealthy individuals typically don’t concern themselves with money; how they choose to use their wealth is entirely their own decision. As long as their actions don’t harm anyone and they’re fulfilling their tax responsibilities, that’s what matters. Ultimately, rumors can be one of the most challenging things to deal with.

The popularity of shorter dramas is evident; however, many viewers actually prefer longer series. A more balanced approach, understanding the plots and overall structure, would contribute to the decision-making process regarding episode counts—whether it's 12, 24, 36, or 48 episodes (these are just random numbers, but you get the idea). A prime example is "When Destiny Brings the Demon." The drama was cut multiple times, going from 40 episodes to 36, and then to 33, all due to a lack of sponsorship. It's disappointing because this drama had the potential to be great. For me, it ended up being good, but that was primarily due to the talented actors involved.

I personally prefer having 60 episodes instead of 30, especially when the latter are so heavily edited that the dialogues and plot become nonsensical. Even worse, the relationships often feel underdeveloped, making the romantic interests totally unbelievable and ridiculous. However, this is now a thing of the past. No more than 40 episodes are allowed.

Netflix helps. Mega platform.

I would love to watch this drama!

BTW… real title is… Men of the harem

There is definitely romance involving multiple couples. This is a Chinese production, so kissing is not emphasized as much as hugs. Ni Ni is extraordinary as usual, and all the other actors and actresses perform well too. It is difficult to explain without giving away spoilers.

How come I missed this gem? Thank you YT for popping in my feed!

This translation is poor. Firstly, on every platform, they incorrectly add an 'S' to 'agent' after 'Princess.' She is not a princess (before late in the story); rather, she was a spy agent in modern times, as stated in the prologue, before she transmigrated. She was neither reborn nor reincarnated; instead, she transmigrated into the body of an 8-year-old girl who died from injuries.

Changing titles is common in dramas, and adding the title of 'princess' makes it more appealing for television, attracting a larger female audience.

The real title should be "SPECIAL AGENT" or "SPECIAL AGENTS." Using the plural form would be more accurate since, in the feudal era world she transmigrated, she navigates among agents, also known as assassins.

Much later in the novel, she is elevated to the title of "Princess."

The accurate title is "The Legend of Chu Qiao: 11's Division Special Agents."

Thank you for taking the time to leave this kind comment.

He dislikes his grandmother, but he is uncertain about her role in the situation. I wonder what his mother did to deserve to die.

What did his grandmother do when she said she would make the same decision?
