Draco

Thanks for reminding me of that, you're right I was wondering how did he changed so much from thinking that tribe was his enemy to betraying his family for them. So it could be the medicine he took from that tribe that caused him to go over the edge.

I think she has some good points, I don't always agree with her but she does have some inside knowledge what she talks about when she rants on certain dramas. Xukai doesn't get her love because most of his dramas she doesn't watch or she watches only a few episodes of his drama then dropped like ancient love poetry and court lady. I find it surprising that she has never ranted on any of his dramas so maybe his dramas just not so popular to get such treatment, or his dramas are not bad like some she consider trash. I think she can be entertaining when trashing on a popular dramas that others like but she didn't lol. I also watched Marcus here as well, he's more neutral I agree ^^

So from the beginning, general cui yi has been hiding his daughter not just from the court but also from his own army. That's why when he was poisoned, his army automatically took the fake son as their commander without questions over his real daughter authority. He clearly wants to give the fake cuilin back his own name and announced to the world he's his adopted son. However he hasn't done it yet before he was poisoned, and that fake cuilin wants to use that knowledge to take over his army and force the real cuilin to marry him. That fake cuilin is becoming more delusional, didn't think he was that crazy until now, even poisoned the man he took as his father just so he could marry his daughter. Or poisoned the girl he supposed to love just so he could kill her lover. This guy is even more crazy than any other delusional characters I seen in other dramas that don't know how to give up. To think he couldn't tell the girl he wanted to marry only see him as a brother. It's so satisfying seeing cuilin threatening him with a sword in order to protect lini and didn't believe him when he tried to frame lini for poisoning her father ^^

In this drama, there are three couples and I like all three of them. The rebel general and the ex crown princess is an interesting couple since they can't be together even though I can tell ex-crown princess has feeling for him, she will not let him rule and would do anything to protect her son interest including killing the guy she loves. This is what a mother would do to protect her son from anyone who means him harms ^^

He knew her identity from end of ep 7 and beginning of ep 8, and she knew he knew in ep 17 if I remember correctly.

The one that commented on xukai's acting probably didn't watch the drama. Xukai has been praised so much for his acting in this drama, so we can weed out all the haters, also it's kind of weird to be so particular about acting. Do people watch dramas caring about only acting, not about the storyline? I kind of notice something similar someone wrote about snow eagle lord on viki, something like xukai can't act, he can't carry the drama by himself so I have to drop the drama at a certain ep, Thanks for the laugh ^^

Finally we can watch another new episode of this drama today. Is anyone still watching. It seems those who finished watching have move on to other dramas and stop commenting here. Let keep the comments positive. If you like this drama, comment on what you like about it, I'm tired of reading only negative comments. It makes people think there's nothing good in this drama to watch. I really like the opening ost, I think it's my favorite ost in the whole drama. I never skip it everytime I'm watching an episode. I also like the ending ost. I think the opening reflect the pov of fl, and the ending reflects ml's pov ^^

The storyline and romance goes together. You can watch a few episodes to see if it's something you like ^^

I don't know since I can't verified. This has nothing to do with international fans anyway, I'm not sure what their problem is for keep bringing it up since xukai and bailu haven't pair for so long, and it's not like she's pairing with only him as ml, she's pairing with many other actors too, but they have an obsession with him for some reason and think only xukai fans hating on her.

He exploded in 2018 from story of yanxi palace. Legend was his first male lead drama. But due to all the bad rumors between him and bailu and his ex's accusations it really hurt his reputation. Even though legend and arsenal military academy was doing well, they didn't receive as much attention because of all the bad rumors. And now everytime those people who want to badmouth him would called all his dramas trash because his other dramas are not as popular as story of yanxi palace which he wasn't even the male lead.

I find some of those people are kind of immature. They kept complaining about bailu being attacked by xukai's fans. This has nothing to do with international fans btw, but they wanted to create a problem for xukai and turned bailu into a victim by saying it's xukai's fault. She's an adult but they treated her like she was a child and needed protection from some of his fans lol. And the fact they haven't cooperate for a long time, but they still complains about his fans that it becomes ridiculous. I think both xukai and bailu have fans who don't want them to cooperate and want them to pair with other people, while it's the CP fans who can't accept that they're not working together anymore and attack any pairing that's not bailu. It's really immature since in my opinion bailu has done very well by pairing with other actors, while due to his ex's accusations most of xukai's pairings are with older actresses, and also his dramas took a while to air because of all the bad rumors between him and bailu. Court lady took more than two years to air due to all those bad rumors. He only starts to get back to working normally since 2021.

What with those people who want to compare this drama to sokp, are they that similar in plot, why keeps bringing up this drama and sokp together. There must be some other dramas that are closer in plot to sokp than this drama that they can compare like let say lost you forever being both has a reverse harem, something to make a discussion about the similarities and differences. If all they're doing is bashing this drama because it's not to their liking, are they that desperate to bring attention to that other drama when it was more popular than this one. Also can we stop bringing up sokp, I think it's enough to know some people have an obsession of this drama, but we should stay on topic and focus on this drama rather than discussing another drama.

Yeah it can be said she's bias towards xukai. I remember her review on once upon a time in lingjian mountain, and she praised the fl but didn't mention xukai as the ml when he was praised so much in that drama. Anyway I noticed she doesn't watch his dramas and only mentioned his dramas in passing, but she would watch some other dramas she consider trash just because it's popular to viewers. I guess the dramas i watch don't follow those dramas people consider popular, as a result not many watched those dramas, while i only watch cdramas after I fall in love with xukai's acting, before that I only watch a few I like or if it has a good storyline and in the genre I like. I also remember she watched only a few episodes of court lady in the beginning and complained the sound was too loud. Court lady in my opinion is a turning point for xukai and showcase his powerful acting, and it made me realizes how serious of an actor he is since he did all his fighting scenes, and I also heard he gotten injured from filming that drama. It made me appreciate him as a serious actor ever since ^^

Yeah but it also makes us totally in the dark how many dramas offer he has that's what I mean. And it's only when the time to shoot his new drama that we get to know about the synopsis. Like his next drama, I heard about it for a while but there's still no drama page for it, it was there in his profile page and then gotten taken down and i have no idea why some of these rumors stayed up for other actors/actressess, but xukai got taken down.

I'll have to watch that drama to see for myself how good that drama is lol. Was watching avenue x, and she didn't have such a good opinion about sokp as some of these people seem to praise it, and badmouthing another totally unrelated drama. Also some comments on YouTube complained about the ml being abusive towards the fl, is this kind of what you consider as a good drama having the ml abused the fl, for this drama the fl keeps being complained for not being sweet to the ml, but do you think it's ok for the ml to be abusive to the fl I wonder 🤔

Ancient love poetry used to has a rating of 8.6, but in a single day all three of his dramas went down in rating. It looks like some haters don't watch these three dramas and massively rated down these dramas at the same time to bring down the rating. It's kind of stupid to be that juvenile, but what can you do to be that popular and a threat to whoever these haters happen to like lol.

I think he has a choice now on what script to pick, but I wonder how many does he get since we don't get too see many rumor dramas from him compare to other actors/actresses. Also xukai pick dramas according to the characters he wants to play that's why he's so good at understanding the characters when he was asked about them. I have always like the characters he played even when I might not like how the dramas turn out either by the direction it took, some of the supports or because of bad editing.

Agree 💯. For me when I think of wooden acting I think of being unnatural and not really getting into the characters and understanding the characters. For me I felt xukai is different, even when he plays a subdue character, you can still feel his emotion in his eyes getting across, and also his understanding of the character make him able to portray the characters as how they were written or how I understand the characters through his portrayal. And agree he's a very good looking actor, who can really able to carry himself through the various outfits they given him, even when they're not attractive, he can still make himself looks good in it. I think this is why he was able to convince the audiences of the characters he played, and have me as his loyal fan since I started watching more cdramas because of him ^^

And what do you prefer. I didn't watch the other drama, so can't say much about the fl there.

No he didn't. He was dub by someone else same with jing tian. I heard it was because he has an accent as a result for historical dramas his voice is not good enough unlike for modern dramas, which are less strict so he has started to dub himself.
