If I am LSS, I choose to save both by first talking and explaining to TTJ and discuss on a plan to work this out together;) Partnership works better then one altruistic mind trying to decide. lol!

I dragged my feet to write it bc it's so well made I feel kind of bad about not praising it to the skies. And…
Both Agatha Christie and Conan Doyle’ s writings are my favourite mysteries, crime stories😍. I have not read Van Gulik’s work, now I may not want to;).

Wow! Thank you very much for posting the article here.🙏🏻 So much effort and money was put into by Wang to get the Brits to write the screenplay. Such irony that a Chinese character to be written by Westerners. This reminded me of another movie by Crystal Liu, remake of Mulan by Disney, which was also a huge disappointment as the story lost its original essence.

I see, I didnt know that it’s originated from British screenwriters. Maybe that explained the ‘Sherlock Holmes’ flavor.;) I can’t open the link, but thanks, now I know. I will adjust my expectation for future viewing.
I see you finally decided to pen this review;) As usual well written review, esp. on “visually stunning….and lackluster supporting performance.” I felt its also partly due to the perspectives of the author who is non Chinese. Hence the Strange Tales of Tang is definitely so much better written compare to this drama, because it’s written based on a Chinese perspectives on how history of Judge Dee should be understood. I will still catch S2, see how they intend to carry forward the story.

For me it’s always the Ending scene. I always felt this drama can give a better and clearer pix on the ending scene and not gave us ambiguity to guess upon.
So it’s complete, didn’t expect the script to give the last bit of tear jerking moments. Overall for a mini…
So at last two ep., we see FL won over the scheming crown prince with the help of an ally (who is also from future), the third princess and ML. FL was crowned Empress and she abolished some rigid rules of the country and change policy for women and marriage. Then she was told she has to return or she will die in three days and she started to cough blood. ML found out and at the last moment send her to the gateway, he jumped off and committed suicide (I didn’t expect that). The third princess took over the crown and continue to enforce FL’s vision of a gender equality country. And next moment we see FL woke up from coma, her attending Dr came in wearing a mask, she unmasked him and guess who, of course ML smiling at her. Happy ending.
So it’s complete, didn’t expect the script to give the last bit of tear jerking moments. Overall for a mini series, I will give it a 7/10 which is a high rating compare to other mini series I watched. Hope it get subs so more viewers get to see this drama. Will post some spoilers for ending at following post, so open at own risk;).

Ok, the first pix I saved was the XiXi in DG holding LuLu’s hand (she is in white and looks distress). they intensely look at each other. It’s the first Youku poster I think. Can’t seems to share the link here.
