I wonder about the rebirth part of this drama that happened in the beginning of the novel. What would the screenwriter do to change it to avoid censorship?
Let's see other drama that adapted from novel imvolved with rebirth plot do to pass censorship: Scent Of Time: it's a dream Story Of Kunning Palace: it's a novel The Double: it's a fake identity The Princess Royal: characters there keep mentioned "a dream..." throughout the drama The Glory: ?
Actually, I wish they choose another English title for this drama because it's the same name with popular Song Hye Kyo revenge drama "The Glory" LOL
From the beginning, this drama production already filmed main couple scene with their children for the ending but Youku The Capitalist edited it as extra episode to gain more money from audiences LOL https://x.com/randmpersonjk/status/1812340475149611072
chat is XH dead or not.. in my interpretation he is not, and he returned to XFF alive in his beautiful red robe…
I read some comments on X and Bilibili (Chinese social media like Youtube) that the novel is happy ending, none of Xiao Heng assistant died and main couple have a daughter but producer, screenwriter and director are sadist. They change it to open ending and kill the side characters.
But few days before the ending of this drama on air, Youku discussed with Wang Xing Yue, actor that played as main male lead about the ending so Wang Xing Yue discussed with director of this drama and Yu Zheng, producer of this drama who is also manager of Wang Xing Yue (main actor) and Wu Jin Yan (main actress) of this drama and then finally they filmed scenes for epilogue.
Maybe Youku worried backlash from audiences with WHAT THE HECK ending because few days before this drama ending, Youku adjusted the schedule for this drama to gain more money LOL
The ending got me effed up!! What the !! I wanted more romance and the ml is yummy!

Ok face ?not for me.At First sight at last sight always beautiful . I respect your opinion but Thank God you are…
Ok means at first, I feel her face is ok to see at first sight. I don't feel that she is ugly neither gorgeous when first I saw her but then I fall for her because her excellent acting skill in Story Of Yanxi Palace.
The most important thing as an actress/actor is acting skill. Even if that actress/actor has drop dead gorgeous but if she/he is wooden or stiff and still no improvement after acting as main lead in 3, 4 dramas then her/hid face alone is not enough to me.
Again, Ok face at first sight but good acting skill = give soul to the character and then enhanced his/her attractiveness as actor/actress
I think one of the main reason this drama become enjoyable is because main couple work together comfortably behind…
I think Legend Of The Female General will be popular because both Cheng Lei and Zhou Ye are rising actor & actress in Cent.
I'm rooting for The Glory to be unexpectedly popular too because the trailer look like it will give delicious revenge and Chen Du Ling improved a lot compared to her previous dramas where I saw her.
I saw main couple in Legend Of The Female General filmed many sweet scene together including wedding scene in reuters, but it seem no any main lead with child scene while there are wedding scene and child scene from wrap up video for The Glory. https://x.com/ultra_melons/status/1811588910637809970
As long they have happy ending, it's fine. I felt relieved it won't be like The Double LOL
I hope Yu Zheng and The Double director won't work on any Qian Shan Cha Ke novel anymore huhu =_=
About main casts for Rebirth Of The Malicious Empress Of Military Lineage, I hope the main actor will at least has good acting skill. He will get bash more if his performance ruin the main male lead character >_<
This is what I said many times when people brought the names like Dylan Wang,luo Yunxi,cheng Yi ,wu lei ,Wang…
I think because majority of recent Chinese dramas fans didn't understand or know much about the billing issue.
I also check kisskh when I want to know more info about Korean dramas, Japanese dramas, Thailand dramas other than Chinese dramas but I only started to know about billing issue when I read comment about Chinese dramas on kisskh
Then I started to understand more about this when I read gossip news about Chinese entertainment industry in English translation site Koala's Playground, DramaPanda, reddit when I searched it up LOL
I wonder who started this first & second billing issue in Chinese entertainment industry? Since then, it's quite a disaster LOL
I think one of the main reason this drama become enjoyable is because main couple work together comfortably behind…
He's really weird LOL Many people frustrated about the death of Tong Er, ending of episode 40 while the thing that frustrated me the most is still the main couple confession scene. How could he show us the candle?! =_=
Btw, what is your opinion about other Qian Shan Cha Ke novels that get adapt to dramas? Do you interested to watch in any of them when they on air later?
I'm interested to watch The Glory with Chen Du Ling & Xin Yun Lai the most. To me, Chen Du Ling could be kind of stiff actress sometimes but from the drama trailer, it seem Chen Du Ling really improved a lot especially from first drama I saw her, Love In Flames Of War with Dou Xiao.
Zhou Ye is one of beautiful actress but I need to watch drama Legend Of The Female General trailer first before I make a decision whether it will excite me to watch it or not.
Some users are arguing about the main casts in the Rebirth Of The Malicious Empress Of Military Lineage kisskh page LOL
The readers expectation are very high since it is most popular among Qian Shan Cha Ke novel. I'm really curious who are the main casts will be. I hope at least they have good acting skill, so I could enjoy the drama.
They will also adapted another one that has xianxia genre with English title "Be My Universe".
Man, how long has it been since I have seen a drama this good?? ITS A DELIGHT! The male lead has made it to my…
I think one of the main reason this drama become enjoyable is because main couple work together comfortably behind the scene. Wu Jin Yan (main female lead), Wang Xing Yue (main male lead) & LiangYong Qi (main female lead's ex-husband) are some of this drama casts from Huan Yu Film, company under Yu Zheng, the producer of this drama. Majority of supporting actors & actresses in this drama also have good acting skill.
Adapted from Qian Shan Cha Ke novel but it is a xianxia genre hmmm.
How is this novel popularity in China? I know most popular Qian Shan Cha Ke novel is The Rebirth Of The Malicious Empress Of Military Lineage and the Chinese, international readers worried so much about the main casts LOL
Even if this novel is not popular or the plot of this novel is just mediocre, they could make it good if the producer has good screenwriter, director & main casts.
Just look at first Qian Shan Cha Ke novel adapted to drama, The Double. Despite the drama has the producer that not confident about main casts together with 12 years age gap, the director that objected more main couple sweet scenes and prefer sad ending, the screenwriter that wrote main couple relationship in script vaguely, the drama get top view during on air because main casts have good performance and chemistry together. Majority of supporting casts also give good performance.
Who are the main casts? Even if they are not popular yet while this drama filming later, I hope they have good acting skill.
Ha. I heard it's confirmed . But I feel both of them are not at all suitable for the roles. Especially fl.
It's a mistake that I posted twice. I never mentioned any comment about Zhao Lu Si plain or ugly in my previous comment?!
What is wrong with you =_=
It's about the issue of first and second billing in Chinese entertainment industry like what @Xiao An mentioned in his/her comment that's why I replied under comment which you tagged @Xiao An aiya
The status of each main casts during the filming of these dramas: Wu Jin Yan is Wang Xing Yue's senior in Chinese entertainment industry. They also from same company, Huanyu Film under Yu Zheng.
Zhou Ye & Chen Du Ling are rising as actresses more than Cheng Lei & Xin Yun Lai as actors. So the selection for main casts for this drama will also follow the same pattern. They will choose any already well known or rising actress as main female lead while less well known actor as main male lead.
I'm happy with drama The Double success after Wu Jin Yan hiatus. Wang Xing Yue is still young when he filmed The Double with Wu Jin Yan but he improved a lot from the his previous dramas.
I'm also happy that she got chance to work with Liu Xue Yi in drama Kill Me, Love Me after that because he is a good actor. Both Liu Xue Yi and Wang Xing Yue were graduated from Central Academy Of Drama too.
I hope the rumor about she will work with Zhang Wan Yi also true because he is another good actor that graduated from Beijing Film Academy like Wu Jin Yan.
I will be honest, first time I watch Wu Jin Yan, I just feel she has ok face. I fall for her after watch her performance in Story Of Yanxi Palace. Same with Wang Xing Yue, Liu Xue Yi and Zhang Wan Yi. But then the more I watch their performances in dramas especially as main lead, the more I fall for them.
Wang Xing Yue - First Love, Scent Of Time and then his other dramas Liu Xue Yi - Qing Luo, Love At Night and then his other dramas Zhang Wan Yi - Lost You Forever, I Know I Love You and then his other dramas
To me, Ok face at first sight but good acting skill = give soul to the character and then enhanced his/her attractiveness as actor/actress
Of course there are actors/actresses that I watch initially because they are handsome/beautiful but after watching more of their dramas and compared you can feel the difference from these actors/actresses that have improved themselves to give good performance in their projects
She flopped for years because played some flopped drama, some are the modern drama as you said. So basically she…
Yu Zheng is lucky he get some actors & actresss like Xu Kai, Bai Lu, Wu Jin Yan, Wang Xing Yue under his company.
He pissed off many people with his lousy personality and thrived because of controversies. His behavior also influenced some people to hate his actors & actresses especially when they work in his project sheesh
I read from some comment that Bai Lu has only about one year left with Yu Zheng, I hope it's true. I also read at first he objected Wu Jin Yan to work with Liu Xue Yi in drama Kill Me, Love Me because there are many kiss scenes LOL Anyway, I'm happy Wu Jin Yan accepted to work with Liu Xue Yi because he is a really good actor.
I just check the ending in the novel using google translation after read some comments from Chinese fans on bilibili.
Main couple have happy ending together in the novel but according Chinese fans, based on the published script, the screenwriter change main couple ending in the drama to sad ending, main male lead will end up as emperor while main female lead wandering around the country or something like that.
Well in the novel, the main male lead of this drama is a red flag, scheming, antihero type like main male lead in Goodbye My Princess. The difference are main couple in Goodbye My Princess have sad ending in the novel while main couple in this drama have happy ending in novel.
Maybe they don't want backlash from audiences, because how could red flag main male lead get happy ending together with main female lead so they change the ending for main couple in this drama.
Producers, directors and screenwriters from China are expert in sad/open/ambiguous ending for their projects anyway so it not hard for them to change the happy ending in the novel to sad ending in the drama LOL
Let's see other drama that adapted from novel imvolved with rebirth plot do to pass censorship:
Scent Of Time: it's a dream
Story Of Kunning Palace: it's a novel
The Double: it's a fake identity
The Princess Royal: characters there keep mentioned "a dream..." throughout the drama
The Glory: ?
Actually, I wish they choose another English title for this drama because it's the same name with popular Song Hye Kyo revenge drama "The Glory" LOL
This fan made video trailer is good too.
I'm so excited for this drama!

The epilogue just about 5 minutes long but I will take it over the drama production ending.
