The Xiyan Princess is sent to marry the Yan King for marriage alliance/peace. Her brother (Bi Wenjun) is already a hostage prince there, but he gets to be sent back now, since she is an exchange. She came with 100 beauties that will marry to their Yan kingdom, so the "blood" can mix in future generation that makes further peace.
10 year ago, it show that FL's village burned, and she thinks ML did it. So she went to kill him (and failed), and he remembers her and her strong will/spirit. He then raised her as an assassin to kill himself, since no one hate him as much as she does. She does not know her Shadow master is MRJH. He intended to let her "kill" him, but she will fail (he's wearing a golden silk armour), and then use her to expose the Crown Prince is the real mastermind of the mass murders and clear his own name.
The twist is, while she is going to kill him, she is smart and started to realize MRJH is NOT the one behind her village murders. So she stab him non-fatal, and plead for him to save her. Whether he save her is of course, our drama's love story.
ML is hated by brother because he was the King's favorite, but then the "mass murder" happen and he got crippled and exiled for 10years, and his brother became Crown Prince. At the same time, his reputation is ruined, he is hated by the world, and his mother died blaming him. So he is very "mad/crazy"
Can someone tell me if as of now the ml's character has been toned down a little compared to the novel? As of…
I didn't read past the first few chapters of the novel, but it seems they did tone him down.
For example, he doesn't r*pe her, and its revealed by eps 2 he isn't the evil mass murderer people think he is. He was a good General, and a good son, and he suffered a lot. He has moments he laughs crazily but it's mostly a outward facade since it's what everyone thinks of him anyway.
In the trailer, YiMeng has 7 steps written on the chalkboard and she also written down Plan A-D to kill Nan Heng…
Title: Yu's Escape Plan Sub Title: Famous Drama Scenes 1. Rescue from falling into lake of Royal Imperial Garden 2. Hero rescues maiden at Lantern Festival 3. Something about "family breakup digging wild vegetables"?? (no idea what famous scene this is, or if translation is right, sorry) 4. Sister/aunt has affair with brother in law 5. On wedding day, 3 people stab and spin in circle 6. Jump off City Wall: Epic choice of 1 between 2 people 7. (Incomplete) The "Cold Palace" ....
They're probably references to other drama's famous moments, like lantern festival in Love Like the Galaxy, the city wall scene in TTEOTM, but I'm very curious about the 3 person stabbing on a wedding day?? lol
im thinking along the lines of she must be SA'd by her father or something. Knowing she was a foster kid that had to be saved from a bad family, etc may make it real and unbearable, and a very malicious thing for him to hateful comment.
Opinion needed, since I see this comment section is still active. So I bought the books, have the drama, the donghua, and the audiodrama (thank you Lyson!). What is your suggested order to start and finish this awesome story?

So he trained her as an asssasin - to assasinate himself.

I've never seen Li Landi in anything except The Starry Love (which I really loved), so I have high hopes
