This drama was produced by Daylight Entertainment - even though Youku was a significant investor they don't control the distribution rights. Daylight only gave Youku China airing rights. Daylight sold the international rights to different platforms depending on which market based on who paid most.

I am not sure how they did it but even Yang Yang's iron mask looks like Yang Yang!!!👀😅😂

Yikes! Doesn't sound promising. Appreciate the feedback.🍑

I think you are missing why I am hesitant. The theme I am not keen to repeat is another empowerment business empire building story. But I will check it out if I have time.

I didn't think she was a constant victim in FP - more like business prodigy with a Midas touch. I found that boring.

I am thinking about it. But the story seems kind of like another Flourished Peony kind of businesswoman story - I feel like its a role she has done before and I am not a fan of Han Dongjun's acting.

So Jing Yiming is just an ancient Jeffrey Epstein.

They wanted the letter, which is evidence that Lord Xiangyang is colluding with Western Xia to destabilize Song. I think the previous emperor's fratricide is virtually a fact of history, which cast a question of legitimacy over all of his descendents' reigns. I wouldn't be surprised if Lord Xiangyang is revealed to be a descendent of Taizu emperor.

The ML Zhan Zhao is the Imperial Cat, a court official of the Kaifeng Court and right hand to Justice Bao himself. Unlike the other jianghu characters, he is not a law unto himself. He cannot simply take justice into his own hands. He has to try to arrest the bad guys and deliver justice by the letter of the law.

The FL is engaged to the dastardly Shao Jizu. She ran away from marriage to him.

Same comment and all the more so. Leave them alone. Its a free world. If they want to rate it early, its their right. Its the site's policy for a reason. Who are you to dictate that people HAVE to watch the whole thing before rating it? I have rated plenty of dramas I decided to drop - yes especially while airing. Why do I have to be forced to wait till its done airing to rate it??? If I drop, I won't be back. And as long as I watched enough episodes to have an opinion, I feel entitled to rate it. How I and other users of this site choose to rate dramas is NONE of YOUR business. Don't know why people get such a big kick out of trying to police other people. Get a life - do your own thing and let others do their thing. Read this a few times because if anyone doesn't get the message that is YOU.

No offense meant but WRTW the FL fights with her sleeves while the ML just stands around. I can’t help but laugh that is so totally NOT a wuxia but a parody that can’t believe it’s “action” scenes are even worthy of comparison.

😅😛😀

Seriously? Do better.

She may have did a fair bit of wire work herself that is not super hard many actors can pull it off. But in many of the close up and fast moving continuous shots its very obvious she used a body double. I don't have any issue with that - those are hard scenes if she can't do them, no need to endanger herself.

If you think Chinese producers even know, much less care about MDL you are totally disconnected with reality.

👍👍👍

Ah ok, I do now vaguely remember this guy but as far as I know, he wasn't a prince. That part made me think of Siddhartha Gautama.

I don't understand why so many people care so much about this. I personally never review anything until I am done watching and have had some time to think about the drama. But I think its perfectly ok to write first impression reviews which is what I think those are. Have confidence that anyone that reads them at this point is SMART enough to know its just a first impression review. People have the right to share their first impressions if they want to. If you don't want to read them then DON'T but LEAVE THEM ALONE. Because some of them are actually fairly well written and helpful. I don't mind them at all. Its a free world - live and let live.👍👍👍

And if any change is needed, MDL should tag those as First Impression Reviews.

That is a user I blocked ages ago - didn't see any of these posts so many people have been ranting about.
