I think the best part of this drama is the special episode. How father and son met for the first time.
How the son felt insecure and afraid of losing his mother. How the father really tried his best to approach and convince his son. Their conversation on the swing is really sweet.
It's really rare to see a drama especially historical/costume drama put such scene on the series. Usually it would be just a meeting, reunited and done.
I really like this swing scene on the special episode. ๐๐
Why did they choose such a much younger female lead? [Have read such remarks since months ago.]
- Perhaps because Aimi was the only actress during the casting who could truly grasp the character's feeling and emotion.
- Perhaps because the original script stated such age gap between the young lady and the general.
- Perhaps because among the actresses during the casting process, Aimi was the only one who could truly understand the character and integrate well.
- Perhaps because from the very beginning, Aimi has the best chemistry with Hou Minghao during the casting process of this series.
There are many reasons why the production team dare to choose Aimi to be the female lead. I'm pretty sure they won't take such risk in choosing minor actress if they don't have solid reason.
But again, Aimi is 17 years old when taking the role [shooting] not below that.
According to the China's law 17 years old although still minor but has very little restrains in some areas because they can be comsidered as almost adults.
So why if there's no actual kissing scene? Is it because the male lead Hou Minghao means it has to be a heavy romance drama?
Tsk...
Hou Minghao, Aimi, her parents, and the whole production team don't even bother about this age matter, so why you the so-called loyal fans and viewers suddenly become such a social justice warrior for this?
So please people, see it as a work of art [acting is an art, right?]
A work of art that doesn't break any China's minor age law.
They have just aired for 6 episodes only, too early to judge or give any low rating.
Rate and judge objectively, based on the whole story, the acting, the plot, etc.
Hating or becoming haters is not good for you health, especially your brain and heart health.
Archives: The Nanyang is based on the book The Southern Archives.
It is Daomu Biji universe side story, considered it as its prequel, around the same era as The Mystic Nine.

Not gonna complain about how many much the similarities to the books or whatsoever because the script writer is the book author himself.
Not bad, not special either.
I found this movie on YT under the same title, so for those who are still looking for where to watch, you can try to search there.
Re-broadcast internationally, it is packed into 38 eps with 40mnts duration.
The content for both 78 eps and 38 eps are the same.
The difference is the opening and closing songs on the 38 eps.
Thank you

It's a quite enjoyable watch.
My mistake.
I just looked at the novel, it seems the scripwriter changed quite a lot, including the dynasty, Wei Dynasty to Ming Dynasty.
So, probably many has been changed as well.
Zhu Zhanhe, Zhu Zhanqi [Zhu Gaoxu's sons] and Zhu Zhanji [Emperor Xuande] were all Emperor Yongle's grandsons.
As for surname Pei, it is considered one prominent clan since ancient time.

The girl only acts, she did not do anything inapropriate. Why many of you have to judge her and the male lead?
Just keep your preference to yourself, don't use it to judge others.
Respect each other's choice in a proper manner.
China probably has the most strict law in the world to control and regulate its citizen.
Do you actually think that the China govt would spare the whole production team to even start this drama production if they break any legal law?
You may dislike or hate but please use your logic. Each country has its own law. Don't use your own country's law to judge this drama.
Aimi has been an actress since she was a child. Do you think her parents would let her take this drama if its story is improper?
Be a smart viewer, use your brain to analyze things, not your emotion.

ไธๅญ (Shรฌzว) - Heir Apparent to a Feudal Prince. His wife can be translated as feudal crown princess in English, but in Chinese it is [Shizi Fei]
As for feudal crown prince secondary wife, it is [Shu Feiๅบถๅฆ]
Please correct me if I'm wrong.
Thank you ๐๐๐๐ผ
