I'm glad how LBY respects CSS and tries to understand her thought, it's not easy for males to realize this issue in ancient times.
CSS is also a unique lady with gender equality and marriage equality awareness in that era, fighting for her own rights. (actually coz of she's a modern girl travelled to that era). This is what makes her different from other ladies.
That whole foreign "influenced" crap was sparked by that Queen Lau drama and now all production companies are…
Friend, I know the reason. Yes, some Chinese people can't accept it is because of the invasion of Japan. But the censorship of the drama industry is because of history accuracy. In Han dynasty, there's no clothes with bow knots on the back.
If the historical dramas can change the clothes, hairstyles freely...Then after a few years, the next generations would think these cultural elements all belong to China. This censorship not only protects Chinese history and culture, but also protect other country's histories and cultures.
I hope all the people from different countries and cultural backgrounds can get along in peace. But we know the reality is cruel and sad.
Please recommend me something similar kind of slow burn love so i can watch it while waiting for this.I am going…
I'll recommend 'The secret of three kingdoms', if you prefer the same clothes and hair styles as this drama. It's slow-burn. The chemistry is great. The actress of the empress (FL) has excellent acting.
But I only recommend the first half (to about EP20), coz after EP 20 it's different from the novel and is slow pacing. The author is Ma Bo Yong. His novel adapted dramas include ' Luo Yang', 'The longest day in Chang'an', 'Wind blows from Longxi'β.
β€ For the jade pendant question: Why did LBY call CSS 'Ruo Ruo' in the tower scene?
Because the Chinese character of ε« (Niao) consists of two parts, ε₯³ (nu) and εΌ± (ruo). ε₯³ means female, εΌ± means weak. The left part is picked up by the two mysterious persons, the right part is picked up by LBY. He is just joking about her nickname without the left part coz it sounds cute and hilarious.
Can you also share spoilers of what happens to some of the characters that are bullying CSS now?
Sorry, I can't remember clearly π But each of the bad girls will be punished by the emperor or LBY. One is married to a remote area, maybe the fifth princess, I can't remember clearly. One is dead. Anyway, don't worry. The emperor is the judge.
