One of my faves, Situ Langlang is here! I’m so happy to see him in the drama. I love his naughty but genius self!

P.S. I’m glad that I won’t have to cry for Mimi in this drama!

Haha I’m trying but it’s hard :D

Yeah the drama adaptation makes ChangGe’s growth rather obscure. But you’re right, that is a priceless reward. Leyan is very brave to have gone through so many hardships.

That scene came to mind because it was the only time they were “against” each other, they’ve always had each other’s backs otherwise, if you know what I mean. I mean she even fainted, and he ran to her like she was the most precious thing in the world to him. Drama Ashina is already at that point <3

Yeah, it was covers up all round. The Khatun of my imagination was a super sophisticated, never one to worry or fret, soft spoken but super cold lady. I guess I was asking for too much hahaha

You’re right, in the end I’m just frustrated with the reversal of the plot and especially the dynamics in their relationship. At least it’s acted really well, but my heart breaks for Ashina /sigh

I think they have to name her since she wrote the manhua, but she’s not involved actively

I like Leyan’s character, she’s very kind and you can see a clear character growth

She didn’t do it just to survive, I disagree. Perhaps at first it was so, but later on it was out of actually wanting to protect him and his people. She didn’t realise what her path was until later in the manhua.

Not exactly true, for quite a while she tried to make herself useful to Tegin, and saved him and the division many times over. That’s how she got Ashina’s loyalty.

I understand your point of view, but I find her way of dealing with this not in character. The whole conversation with Khatun for example is so OOC on both sides.

I found the whole ark ridiculous tbh

Perhaps it wasn’t important in the drama, but in the manhua she promised complete loyalty. Loads of her actions in eps 19-21 were a betrayal of that promise. I know people don’t really care about stuff like that, but for me it’s important.

Nope, the attack on Chang’an ark. She didn’t betray him to others, but certainly his trust. In the manhua, just the idea that her schemes could’ve got him hurt, brought her to tears. Her actions in eps 19-21 are pretty strange in that regard. Well the plot is changed entirely, so really I shouldn’t add anything more.

Agreed, the manhua creator is not involved at all as far as I know.

I never said I did though. Why are you being like this? Just enjoy the drama once it airs out and don’t be like this towards others. I’m trying to make polite conversation, but you’re making it very hard. I’ll stop here, this is going nowhere.

I actually know a lot about Chinese history, I’ve read it all from start till now because I really enjoy it...

Manhua ChangGe would never betray Ashina Sun, just saying...

Yeah, I gathered that too. It’s unfortunate that instead of a debate everything is being taken as a personal attack /sigh

We love our country too, you just keep mixing up loving a country, and loving a party regime, because I’ve been talking about the latter. But let’s agree to disagree, you obviously don’t understand or you don’t want to understand my point of view. I wish you the best. Cheers
