Lyrry

Changyu is never annoying. She is the most adorable, lovable, bad ass female lead in a cdrama I watched. Well written character. Yep I also read the novel. Xiwei stayed true to the novel and drama character. My bias given a role she can shine so brightly

You can but you will be really spoiled. Lol. Although the pig slaughtering squad is not in the novel.

Because his son can compete for the throne against him.

He will become a godfather to Changyu

They both died in the end but I won't spoil how

In the novel, Xie Zheng rescued Changning and got really injured in the process. But she is safe. I don't want to add more spoiler.

Are you asking about Li Huaian? Yes he is a villain. His story does not have proper end. We do not know if he died or survived. But Li Huaian's family is corrupt to the core like Wei Yan.

First drama I watched with them both. They have 2 more. I fell in love with them. I ship them so much. Lol. I have seen another mini drama with same plot but nothing compares to this. Fl is funny and silly. Ml is swoon worthy.

Zhang Ruo Yun always play an MC of really well written dramas.

Is this happy ending? I want to know before I even start watching it.

Thanks! I guess I still pass. I hate open-ended endings as much as sad endings.

Wait until you get to the episode with Princess Pingyang. You will slowly love Princess Lin'an

Is this a happy ending?

After ignoring this drama for a while, I finally watched it. And darn it it is AMAZING. Song Mo is such a green flag husband.

A 10 of course

Novel is still ongoing. They haven't revealed the erased name yet. And haven't concluded Shen Su's character yet.

Novel is still ongoing. No ending yet. Antagonist is XQA's father and I believe the emperor as well.

It will be sooo hard to move on. What will I watch next?! 😔

Saying that this is my new favorite cdrama is an understatement because this is by far not just a favorite but I love everything about it. Well including the cliffhanger ending. Lol

What I love:
-Wang Hedi's brilliant portrayal of Xu Qian. I cannot imagine anyone who can nail this character better
-The hilarious and loving Xu Family. All of them are amazing. My favorite is the youngest Xu. Everytime she talks, I smile
-The Guardians especially Zhu and Song, Yang Yan and Li Yuchun. Zhu and Song's friendship and loyalty to XQ
-Lord Wei being a father figure to XQ
-Xu Qian's secret sect with powerful members. I ship Li Miaozhen and Chu Yuanzhen. They have chemistry
-Princess Lin'an's silliness and cuteness and Grand Princess' calm and beauty
-Caiwei that cannot stop eating and Song Qing's mad scientist experiements. Lol
-Simu's genuine affection to Xinnian and the Xu Family

The ending is not in the novel. But I think it gives way to a possible Season 2. We can only hope.

Thanks. I will pass then. I hate sad, and open-ended endings.
