Well, the author of this novel was one of the scriptwriters, so i really hope it somehow sticks close to the essence of the novel and the character dynamics.

Actually, as long as i can remember, the novel wasn't that violent or it was only shown occasionally. It was more like a battle of wits and schemes among all the characters. Like mind-twisting than bloodshed most of the time. It was ML and FL against everyone.

No problem.

Funny. The rating is only 7.8, whereas the comments/feedbacks were mostly positive. Then the other dramas were rated higher, though the comments weren't really favorable. lol.

done.

i sent you the things i could mostly recall. i had read the novel a long time ago.

oh.. i wish you would read the novel. You'll be shocked by their shamelessness there.

Haha.. Exactly. That's why i hope everyone would just read it. And they would be surprised. The novel was really refreshing.

I think they won't dare do it in the drama... Especially what the ML did. 🤣🤣🤣

And i really like the author's writing. She uses alternating 3rd POV of ML and FL. We get to know what the ML was thinking too. It was such an enjoyable read. Even the politics wasn't too boring.

Yes. Most especially FL being bold enough with the ML. It was really shocking in the novel. Even what the ML did. 🤣
But i guess we can only hope.
What i really remembered was that she chased him first. She mostly initiates things.

Yes. Exactly. Everyone was pretty much busy with being selfish in their schemes of contradicting the ML. That it was almost funny for ML and FL to be playing with them being enemies up front. 🤣

From what i can recall in the novel. It was fair with the political issues because ML and FL mostly scheme together to win against everyone. And they are pretty much shameless together. 😉

Yes. I hope too they won't add that in the drama coz it was almost absent in the novel.

No. She's not interested. She likes someone else. They were childhood friends. And everyone was pairing her with ML because she's the grand tutor's daughter. She even helps FL to be with ML.
That was in the novel.

This pretty much summed up what happened in the novel. So excited for this drama even more!

Yes. They do get married in the end. As in, just what the original title meant: The kingdom as a betrothal gift.
They are emperor and empress.

No problem. Though i don't pretty much remember most things.

I recommend you should read the novel. You would understand more the ML there for the writer also explained his thoughts with 3rd POV alternate with the FL.
