Yeah it looks like they're remaking all the other parts too.

This drama does take a rewatch to make better sense of the plot. I was watching on wetv, YouTube, Viki, and it's so interesting that I keep going back to watch it again. The evil girl are you talking about wuhuan? She was evil, but her character was pretty smart, she was able to hide her crimes for a long time because of her status as the heavenly empress. This reflects our real world, the rich and powerful can get away with almost anything as long as they've people willing to give them the pass.

The things that I like about this drama is the focus on the competitions and food as the main theme, and it's different from the usual palace dramas I watched. I don't have such complains, so that's why I was able to enjoy this drama a lot. It set out to do exactly what it promises, a drama about food, friendship and romance spanning the period of 3 ming emperors.

So zi Jin want to get close to zhan ji is to figure out what kind of person he is, whether he's worthy of her admiration since young. From her talk with Zi ping, she admires him even more after knowing more about him, she even read all the books in his study, how she describes him to Zi ping and blushes over him is so cute, just like a young girl with her first love ^^ Zhan ji also figures out the servant who served him food and helping him was the girl he met in the rain when he helped her before. The flowers that were arranged in his study must have been from her.

Zhan ji is a good son, the crown prince is lucky to have him, he's knowledgeable about court matters, and is looking out for his father. He helps his father advisors get out of jail, pleads to the emperor to send aid to disaster victims as his father wanted even though the emperor was against it, he still able to get him to agree. He is very mature for his age, from history he's supposed to be the same age as Zi jin. What a guy, a man after my own heart, not a surprise why Zi Jin has a huge crush on him. The emperor really doted on his grandson ^^

Xukai has three more dramas that are predict to air in 2022, she and her perfect husband, loss in the Kunlun mountain and snow eagle lord. Royal feast has finished airing, so I hope any of these dramas will get an air date soon ^^ Also he has a rumor drama called sword and fairy with an actress who was also in royal feast, wonder if it's real.

It was you that comment by saying I don't understand why this drama has better rating than other dramas that you like, so my comment to that is those dramas that you like have people like you who don't like those type of dramas and rated it low, why go into this drama and cried over their poor rating. If this drama has better rating than they must've done something right that made more people liking them. You don't see me complaining about dramas I like have poor rating do you, what a waste of your time to go on to a drama and complains about it rating. You still did not tell me what is so hard to understand about this drama.

I watched Chinese paladin long time ago, that why I was wondering about all the other parts since I only watched the first one. Thanks for the reply ^^

There's a novel for this drama, if you're interested ^^

It wasn't a problem for me since I thought she fits the character. Also I really like xukai's acting, and he made up for her lacking, as well as most of the casts chemistry and dynamic as a team was great. This is an easy and lighthearted drama, those other dramas you like have people rated low for their own reasons that has nothing to do with this drama. You can't expect everyone to like the same things you do lol ^^

I didn't think the plot was bad, and I'm watching it again at the moment. I actually understood what they were going for, this drama span the period of rulings of three emperors of ming dynasty. What makes you not liking the plot if you don't mind my asking? Is it because it goes too fast since most palace dramas tend to focus on one emperor, but this one has the ambition of focusing on three in only 40 eps drama, maybe if it was allow to air the full version and not being cut you would have like it better.

Rumor about them dating was never confirmed since they denied it.

She's a newbie actress. I'm not sure how far you got into the drama, if you want to ask questions about what doesn't make sense for you, some people on here can help you understand better. You can suggest better dramas if you want, but going on here and complains about this drama when you can tell there are people who have watched this drama and like it, and some even rewatch it, just shows how much people love it. And in my opinion what you like might not be what I like anyway since I really like this drama.

He was called fatty, I didn't think he was that fat, but he does eat a lot. What is so wrong about liking food though, does that mean only skinny people can be show to like eating now.

She's a newbie actress, I didn't have a lot of expectations on her acting since the beginning since someone was pointing out how bad she was in another drama of her. For this drama I thought she fits the character, and if you like eSports, it's has a good focus on the game and team work. The relationship between the main and support couples are also good. It's a very easy drama to watch if you like the topic, likable characters over all.

You can't blame all on her though, since she was force into the marriage, but I agree once she's married to him, she should give him some face as an emperor and her husband rather than keeping everything to herself. It takes two to make a relationship work.

I'm watching it a second time and I like their chemistry, and this is when they haven't met. Also why do you think the plot is rushed, some people on here is complaining it's too slow. Also maybe you don't like xukai's acting because you don't like the character? I like every character he has portray, and his acting only get better as he gets into the character.

It's kind of cute the way zi Jin has a secret crush on zhan ji, she even runs after him to throws her handkerchief to declare her feeling for him. So zhan ji always has a secret admirer in the child Zi Jin, her reason for entering the food service was so she can escape marriage, but she is doing her best to attract the prince, isn't she being contrary lol.

Zi ping life story is so sad, I'm still emotional after watching it a second time. Her family having lower status is similar to Zi Jin's mother, that must be the reason why Zi Jin could empathize with her. Yue hua is so nice to zi Jin, so it hard to understand why she is so hostile to Zi ping, looking down on her. How they turn out later on make me admire Zi ping even more, her character grows so much. Yue hua on the other hand, it's such a puzzle, sure her mother abandoned her as a child, but she still has a father and later a teacher who took her under her wing. She has so many chances, but she doesn't learn and keep making mistakes, is this what you call pitying yourself just because life didn't deal you a good hand. This drama did a good job of showing two different women, and how their environment shape them. Zi ping is a success story due to her resilience in the face of hardship, while yue hua is an example of an upstanding individual who gradually loss her self worth due to her own resentment and jealousy.

I assume it's a big budget, the costumes for the main leads look great, xukai has so many nice costumes, looking forward to more news about this drama ^^

Glad to see there's finally the synopsis for this drama. If anyone has more pics to share of the filming, please post it here ^^

So it's just a rumor for now. What is so popular about this story, that it has so many parts, this title is sword and fairy 6, so there's 5 parts before this one?
