wonder what is queen dowager intention in invitimg FL to a banquet and interrogating about her life up the mountain..she seem to be genuily shook hearing about her mothers death..surprisingly none from her ye family asked about her mpther and she didnt tell anyone about her death
i wonder why would ML thinks his handicappedness comes in the way of their married life.... he seem to have developed some feelings for FL... and would have liked to take it forward...and seem to hesitate due to his leg
i call it... FL was the only student left on the mountain when she left it... none of the students or teachers survived.... suppression by dowager queen i dont think queen dowager knows she caused death of linshen academy scholars.. she may have resented them, hated them for not approving her ruling as a regent.. she may have used the maquis 's hand (????) to supress them.. but he may have gone overboard and may have killed them all or most because most of the officials then were from linshan academey.... why i think so... 1. in her dream in the 1st 5 mins of drama , FL was the only one in that scene and she is trying to survive from a hoard of monkeys (her surroundings seem like abandoned .old place...)).. monkeys would not have been soo bold if there were people...2. she was dirt poor when she came down the mountain , and had to borrow money from the guards to travel back home... 3. her mother and her maid are dead,,,, and seems some dark horror is there in their deaths.. 4. she seem to weave tales about her time on the mountain...
I think our step sister (the flower fairy), will change with the influence of the Nasty Nanny and her jealousy…
concubine doesnt seem all bad either..she comes from a noble family , married against her familys wishes as a concubine .. guided by her nanny she gained upper hand in that family - banish legimitate daughter and gain house hold keys ... her daughter reflects what she could have been as a young girl... and with time and events , daughter will also change into her ..thats a given
What's with the ratings? Everyone is saying that they love this and it's so low? Is there a fan war going on?
yes , deserve better ratings but.. i feel the 1st 2 episodes could have been handled better .. i love the cast , and story seem to have depth....but screen play felt rushed. ..took me sometime to understand whats going on
is this reverse harem scenario...?? who do you think FL likes at this point... Ye Xian or Xuan xing .. she seems to admire thexuan xing for his views about women... and with ye xian she seem to have a better match of wits, cunningness and chemistry ..and he seem to already like her.. what aree your thoughts
. (she has BEST chemistry with ML but neither seem to be thinking in these terms at this point of time.. FL is dead scared of him , ML softened a bit but not to the extent of love)
some one explain to me whats so great or attractive about FL's father.... Both ladies (FL's mother) and the concubine song claim to have married against their familys wishes... BOTH..... atleast FL's mother comes across as mature and sensible ..how could he convince (more like FOOL )both reasonable smart and mature ladies to marry him , against their family's wishes
I don’t think I can ever tolerate the FL. I tried watching twice! I was turned off by both the character’s…
the novel had immense potential.. this could have been a great series if they casted an actress with better chemistry with ML or someone who is tolerable despite irritable characterization.... i understand the FL's character in novel - but here the casted actress makes it more unbearable though i understand why she acts the way she does.. my peeve with the story was ML does so much , FL does nothing ... this has been the case of many series in chinese industry ...a very busy and very succeessful ML will do every thing for FL...including cooking...and FL's does nothing.. not sure if this is healthy portreyal either.. show both as equals sharing equal responsibility like adults ..not one as child/childlike and other all responsibility taker... this will build unreasonable expectations on women... and not true representation
i have been flagging this for sometime.. looks at all the recent drama.. do the actors look healthy ..even 3rd world people eat better and look better than chinese actos... tian xi wei in recent drama is all bones...i really love her , and her bubbly aura ..and thought she is very pretty lookinb=g and yes beautiful ..and why she lost so much weight for POJ ? zhao lu si is another case that should have alerted all actors and actresses , that it is not worth putting their health on the table for mercurial fans like us..who has no real love or concern but just comments on everything about them... heard of/read so many new items about health of bailu , meng ziyi, and so many ..... overworking is definetely the case...but where is healthy weight ...arent the actos not eating themselves or agencies are pushing them to not eat or not allowing them to eat forceably or some mafia is working behind them and making them work like slaves ..like real...not pretend... we had that case of that actor who was killed last september..is that the case with all actors?
She literally set her husband on fire after she told him she'd rather see him dead than resign. And showed zero…
we have seen such things happen in so many dramas.what decorum.. they have no choice actually...all for power for their maternal families they go to any extent
