Title The Legend of Xiao Chuo Spoiler
Question re the previous emperor's death:
That assassination was not just a revolt by his traumatized servants it was planned by Mingyi and Siwen. What I am not clear is whether Han Derang knew about it and helped them accidentally or knowingly.?

OMG - this thread has turned into a spoiler obstacle course!!! Not everyone wants to be spoiled so thanks for hiding your spoilers. Love to read your comments so if you indicate the episodes those of us behind watchers know what is safe to open.

I thought it was a tease or a mistake! I just renewed for the year, feels like a bonus! LOL
That's smart - iQiyi just raised prices 25pct for domestic subscribers. Tencent hinted their earnings call they will do the same. I wouldn't be shocked if international viewers will be hit with a price rise soon so best lock it in ASAP.

If you watch the opening theme song I believe that she marries Han Derang, they are both in wedding costumes.…
Maybe she needed him to protect her and her son. But yes, ruthless and awful nonetheless...

Indeed. This is the characterization I wanted to see. But sadly I don't think I will. Its a good enough drama anyway. :)

Wow so it seems this drama follows "folk history" or unofficial history.

So far not in the drama. That is just according to folk history/internet speculation.

Both sisters but they were doomed to be enemies from the start no? Marrying them all to contenders for the throne.

Maybe jealous. But also by then she was a widow and a mother who had to protect her son. I think she asked Han Derang to return to her side to help protect her and her son. And that is what they did.

Yes indeed both her sisters. But to defeat the Song army and be regent from the time her son who was 12 at the time. She needed strong generals like Han Derang to help her hold on to pwer and I think he only returned to the capital to do so after the emperor dies. One (also not verifiable) account says she told Han Derang its his son to make him protect them. Tang Yan is not coming across as strong and as ruthless as this woman most likely really was.

Supposedly to be with /marry Han Derang. I saw this on a few netizen posts only I didn’t look very hard for more reliable sources.

LOL - sorry my friend - I try to make clear its folk history or wild history. This was so long ago official recorded history is not detailed. It leaves ample room for fictionalization of all these characters who did exist. There is enough out there to only suggest she was definitely once engaged to Han Derang and the Liao took engagements very seriously. And there is inuendo in many records they were "close", possibly remarried which was acceptable those days in Khitan culture. I think its very cool that whispers of their love story survived so many centuries. And I am sure the Han people would love to speculate that the descendents of a great Khitan queen were actually half Han... which may be where this romanticized account is going with this.

Mingyi is just pathetic. Is there no new low level for this guy to stoop to? Stealing letters and throwing a pity…
I believe that was because of wild rumors that they would (faint! sacrilege!) make her a couple with Wei Wuxian in the Untamed and unleashed fan venom at the actress. But allegedly the fans succeeded into traumatizing the screenwriters into not doing that... Should have blown past by now...

Gosh I'm actually rooting for the second female XD happy ending for her please. But not with DerangXD. I hope…
If you watch the opening theme song I believe that she marries Han Derang, they are both in wedding costumes. I saw on some Chinese sites it is said that in history Xiao Chuo kills her or has her killed. But the book and drama may handle this part differently and probably doesn't follow (folk) history.

I can see how it inspired many subsequent iQiyi dramas. Train fight scene - The Eight. Profiler - Evil Minds...…
Criminal Minds is much, much darker. I stopped watching bc of that.

I am too chicken shit for horror but I did start The Danger of Her that you suggested awhile back...

Hikaru no Go I watched 2 episodes but I didn't like the ML so I put it back on hold. I will wait for reviews to see if I want to continue... I am enjoying Legend of Xiao Chuo most among what is currently airing... I see Qin Empire Season 4 started I am tempted to check it out as well even though I didn't watch the first 3. I found S1 but its dubbed in English, can you believe???

OMG the US election (shakes head)! I am so glad its over... (I think).

I wonder why she hasn't gotten more lead roles. She looks good enough and acts well enough...

Oh you mean they didn't sleep together there either???
Didn’t watch Yunxi I just think it’s a odd they act all lovey dovey but don’t consummate their marriage,
