The background for the politics was so confusing in episode 29, Qimin's origin, but they went over it a couple times in the episode so it definitely helped... and I think I get it now. So there were two princes? Chengde (crown prince), and brother Changxin? Qimin is actually the crown prince son, but has taken over Sui Yuan Hai name, who was Changxin's real son that died in the fire along with the crown princess, his mom? Why did his mom put his face in the fire though? A little clarity there please!
By the way... did Chang Yu find Qianqian that conveniently in the novel LOL like she walked out a bush and wow we found her! That saved us a hell of a lot of time. I feel like it would've been interesting to see some plan, but then again Chang Yu isn't the smartest cookie lol.
I love how they gave the whole episode for Chang Yu to decide to participate in the war. It's not an easy decision. She may be bad-ass, has killed a general, but she has done what he came for. She came only to find Changning, done, protect Yan Zheng, done, find Qianqian, done. Why else should she stay? Words and encouragement from people around her, they all led her to make the decision, and I enjoyed the pacing. Grand tutor tao, General He, The gongs... and a final "off you go" from Qianqian.
I also find interesting what Grand Tutor Tao. You don't see this kind of talk in other dramas, they are all so positive, save the people. Here, he spoke about sacrifices. For the greater good. I remember people being upset earlier about Xie Zheng's plan to flood tha canyon, killing the whole opposition army, along with some of his own + civilians. It's cruel, but realistic. They kinda seem to sugarcoat it, but they are honest about it. I just really like everything about this episode!
That's fair, it isn't for everyone. I LOVED love in the clouds and the double, but not really the other two. For…
I wouldn't give up, maybe pick up once everything is aired. I think in these last 12 episodes, the plot will finally come in. But read the comments and see, we always here lol. Yes, I can see how it feels confusing with ML, also seeing how he has done barely anything in this military arc. But his growth is more subtle than FLs, her's is physical, harder to miss, his is emotional. Ofc, I enjoy seeing different opinions, makes for interesting conversations, moments of enlightenment. Hope to see you in the comment section again lol.

oh wow really.. I guess it isn't for you. The drama isn't very plot-heavy compared to the ones you've listed. Like in LITC, girl is trying to get that cure, in the Double, she's hellbent on revenge... this one is more character heavy. I also enjoy plot-heavy shows, but this one is different for me because I think they just did the characters so well. I can see how it's not as interesting for you! It is slow in plot.
why is a strange question.... is it not obvious lol you said it yourself!
That's the typa stuff we'd see in dramas where you have unrealistic characters, poor writing, a tropey drama just to feed people's desires. Do you think you could love someone who loves you if they kill someone just caused they annoyed him? Someone that traps you in their home, is abusive to you and your child, physically and mentally, but all in the name of love? If you do, then nothing I can say would help you understand.
Even if she thought to love him despite ALL the horrible things about him., in reality, he would never change. He has goals, desires, that her love will not stop him from achieving...
Yes, Chang Yu isn't a rock! She will melt eventually when he says all of the right things! I can understand though Xie Zheng's need to be reassured, girl ran away immediately lol but she also said all the right things today.
Loved their healthy communication. He loves her so much and wants to protect her, but if he does that, she won't be the Chang Yu he loves. He respects her wishes, but will still secretly protect her lol. Both sides are happy.
Novel Xie Zheng was so unhinged and freaky.. Novel Changyu was also VERY freaky (they be having seggs anywhere…
I just read that underwear part in the novel and I was so uncomfortable LOL LIKE UGHHHH I'm glad they ain't doin nothing freaky like that in the drama.
I'm also glad that he is not as cold, it makes all that he says more believable. I wouldn't believe novel Xie Zheng saying his time in Lin'an was the happiest in his life if he was constantly scowling at Changning lol
I came across this drama under recommendations of Stranger. The genre and plot of Beyond Evil is my cup of tea…
I struggled to get into it, was lowkey in a hate watch, because I was confused why people liked this show soo much. I got to episode 7-8 and it finally got me. If you can bear until then, then maybe you'll enjoy it lol
Can someone tell me where I can find the instrumentals, the score! Are they released? The whole soundtrack is great, but that one flute song... where can I find it!?
