Nope. It's his real voice. So is TXW. He's been recently using his own voice. None listed as his voice actor. He sounds different compared to his older drama because this is his real voice. Lol

Then ML will be 22 or 23 in the drama

15 when he met her and he was 20. He bought her a pair of arm bracer before he left for the war for her 16th bday.

I hope not but it'll probably the same set-up as the few chapters with the village.

Yes. He is. Li huai an redemption arc is one of the best extra chapter in the book.

Nope. He's going straight to war after the village if they follow the novel.

His father is Xie and mother is Wei, sister to PM Wei Yuan. The father Xie Lushan is friends/brother with PM Wei in their younger days as generals and shared same teacher. Xie zheng grew up under pm since parents death. So pm is his maternal uncle/adopted father figure.

I'm fine with either as long as the story is well executed. I wish director zeng will ✂️ cut some of the extra chapters for us too.

Zou Yue wrote love like the Galaxy. It was one I lilke.

It depends. As it is airing now, I suggest to sit tight and watch. Read the novel after the drama finish for comparision if u like. From my experience, reading it before or during airing of the show ruins the drama you're watching. Case for example is The legend of the female general. The drama left a bad taste for me. It didn't stand up to my expectation. Sometimes u don't need the book as the adaptation is good enough.

I can't say it's a massive success yet as we're still early on the show. But if this turns out to be one. I'll attribute it mostly to the whole production team especially the director (Zeng Qing Jie) his track record doesn't lie and the scriptwriter. I'm actually watching this coz I'm curious if the director can pull another successful idol drama after Blossom - with a better budget and actors that can act. This will prove that you don't need traffic stars to build a successful drama. All you need is a freaking good story/script and translating that story to your audiences with amazing visuals. It helps that ZLH acting has improved here and TXW is born to play chang yu. Director Zeng skills is amazing at maximizing the visual impact and aesthetic beauty of the leads. The framing (longshot, wide, angle, focus-you name it) of ZLH is almost ethereal ✨️ 😍 💕 and the way he makes him peek at that freaking window is like telling us - we're only allowed that, a sneak peek a bit of a time and no more. Lol

As of ep. 09. I don't see any major changes. Except Li Huai an (He's supposed to be a scholar in the novel not a trained fighter). He's also not supposed to be aware of ML identity and FL being married - too early. But major time line still the same.

I bet this is where the novel and drama will differ. Seeing as Deng Kai is 3rd bill. I doubt they'll kill him.

I saw the BTS. They built the village inside the studio so they're making the best use for it for several episode. The director is producing the best angling, lightning and cinematography and best of all those tantalizing close up shots of ZLH, Tempting you to lick your tv screen if your watching netflix. 😂🤣😅😍🥰😘Also on the 1st ep. TXW lifted a freaking real pig with the help of some hoisting ropes on it.

Yes. I'm doing a re-read like a refresher course for the characters lol

In the Novel several as fas as I can remember. The PM uncle Wei Wan - with massive back story why he did it. He even have extra chapters to go back to the past and redo his life - in extension changes everyone life as well. I love that alternate ending. Grand Tutor Li + the grandson Li Huai An (I think they're the main enemy). The paranoid old emperor

Yup the timeline when rebel invade the little town/village is near.

It's simulcast. Wake up around 2.30s PST in the morning. Lol. I did a marathon saturday going to sunday and it's around that time.

I read in the comment about the mom's selfishness in committing suicide. In the novel there's an explanation to that. It was meant to save his son and xie clan in general from complete annihilation by the old emperor + something else on the his maternal uncle side that the mom's discovered.. Some complex political maneuvering going on. I wonder if they will explore this on the drama.

I can recall Qi Min in the novel. Oh I remember the princess. It was Qi Shu.
