I started enslaved by Love. He is such an arrogant *** in the drama. I'll add Two Foxes to the watchlist.

It must be the director not prepping the actors, The sound is not good either. They might have recorded live on set, and not bother to redub in the studio, to remove all the extraneous background sounds.

I am checking out his other dramas now.

Also the scene earlier when she was dreaming about him. That was too funny and hot.

He acts like an imposter emperor, as if he was worried that he would be found out one day.

I binge watched the full version (3 hrs, 53 minutes) last night, and stayed for him.

He was probably rushed, and looked disconnected. When filming a ten minute episode, there is very little preparation. The director and writer probably handed the scripts to the cast, and gave them an hour to digest it before filming,

The General was cute. The scene when she was dreaming about him, was too funny.

I am puzzled about the ending. She went back in time, and met him before he died. Does it mean she will take him back to the future? He was very curious about the future.

I binge watched the drama last night. Tencent created a full version with all the episodes, with a runtime of 3:53:10 hours. The leads, Dai Yu and Su Ke, were very good. Lu Chen was comical, and Emperor Sun Duo was dull. The sound is not very good with some tinning sounds, but it was watchable.

Dramawiki cast list is longer.

Director: Huang Jun Wen, Li Guo Yuan, Zhao Xia
Screenwriter: Li Min, Chen Yi Yi (陈一一), Zhang Er Jiu (张二九)

When I see three directors and three screenwriters, I start to wonder at the quality of the story.

That's a disappointment.

Filming period: 2024-Sep-28 to TBA

It looks like we won't see this drama for a while. Perhaps 2026? Looking forward to seeing Zheng Ye Chen, Peng Xiao Ran, Li Xin Ze.

Filming period: 2023-Jan-09 to 2023-Jun-14

This was film almost two years ago, so hopefully, it is released in 2025. Looking forward to Cheng Yi, Xiao Shun Yao, Zheng Ye Cheng.

I was thinking the same thing about BFF's death. She should not have died. She was the most skilled martial artist and fighter. Ji should have been brokenhearted and wailing after the death of her best friend. Instead the writer and director focused on her sadness when Bai died. The brother finally found his mate, but she was taken away from him. She said she would protect him.

It's a good costume drama to bingewatch. I liked Zheng Ye Cheng and Seven Tan, so I stayed for them.

I am so glad that Youku dropped the final four episodes on the same day to put us out of our misery. 🤣

Prince Bai Sheng was such a waffler. He could not decide if he should be a full-time villain on screen. He hit rock bottom when he tried to molest Ji. He followed up with a ninja attack on the Prime Minister's soldiers, to save Ji. I was irritated with him full-time. Jing Chao would make a great main lead prince, but I doubt I would watch the drama.

Ji has an obsession dressing up in wedding dresses. This could be her fourth wedding dress in the drama. Surprisingly, Bai did not make her wear a Nanzhao wedding dress. She did not even wear her Father's Shu Red wedding dress that Yang Jinglan had recovered for her.

Director ran out of budget money to stage a wedding banquet... food and wine, guest payroll and wardrobe, and decorations. Crown Prince could have arrived before the ceremony to present the Emperor's decree. The guests would have been excited to meet him. The actor playing the Crown Prince is strikingly good looking. ❤

The death of Yang Ju Xian was so unnecessary. She was one of the anchors in the story.

It would have been a better wedding day scene with the CP showing up with the decree right before the wedding ceremony. The Yizhou guests would have been excited to meet him.
I guess the director ran out of budget money for food, payroll, wardrobe and decorations.

This is the first time seeing a CDrama ML in wedding dress rehearsal. I think the director could have skipped the dress rehearsal, and go directly to the wedding scene.

Why were they wearing their wedding gowns if the wedding was the next day? I thought they were getting married. The brother and the Bloom Society staff were there. Why wasn't Ji wearing the father's Shu Red wedding dress? Was this her fourth wedding dress, btw?

Bai and Zhao are so full of themselves! There must not be many females around, that they obsess over Ji. I can't wait for Emperor Bai to take down his little brother. The writing is drivel. The nonsense about Ji being called the divine maiden and the citizens gossiping off screen! Yang acting like the vigilante, wih no backup!
