Does anyone that has read the novel knows what’s gonna be Xuan Lu/ Lady Yu Lou role? I see her as main character…
She will be a big part of the story. Depending on how they play up the relationship between her and Wei Shao. Maybe by tonight, it will become clearer.
After watching the episodes, I like the flow of the drama. In the novel, I couldn't see how she could fall in love with him (because of his actions and suspicions). However in the drama, with the little things he does for her, and how he is so regretful of his actions, the possibility of love is higher.
2nd FL is childhood friend of ML. She breaks the engagement with ML after the fall of Wei clan and married off.…
Yes... and how the whole scheme unravelled was classic. I just don't know if I can stand her character, scheming, using her past ties with WS to guilt him into being lenient with her and using her beauty to manipulate men. Seeing some names of the characters from the novel, it looks like they will keep this part.
I think the rage you wanted to feel when watching that scene clouded your eyes so you didn’t see him apologize…
I think if this scene already turns you off the drama, better not read the novel then. History was brutal for women and men. I think in real life during those times, things would not have gone the way of the drama and things would have been worse.

She was despicable in the novel. I still think she is scheming to get more power and that mask is spot on in the novel too. So she must have angered WS enough for her nose to be cut off but not sure if it will be for the same reason.
It's kind of good that they didn't follow Wei Shao's character to a T in the drama. I can guarantee that there would be lots of people who would hate on him and what he does to ManMan. LYN's version is very very very restrained.
This is not a clear cut ending like Blossom where the male lead is cured of poison. I will take it that Yun Xi lives and loves happily with Han Yan and A-Zi. It doesn't matter which 'side' he is on.
Tip: If the first four episodes doesn't hold your interest, it is unlikely to. From the 1st episode for this drama, I was already invested. Even though I don't really like 're-birth' plots.
