yes indeed..but i try to look at this plot with a positive pov to enjoy the drama as it is..the ML so timid and confuse when having intimate moment with FL so he really do what FL ask him to do with the contract..the funny thing is when they become husband and wife, the FL expect ML to not respect her anymore and just do it..hahhahaa,,

as the novel reader, actually i feel a bit dissapointed..dont get me wrong, with all due respect for both actor and actress, SWL and BSE as ML and FL really close to my imagination as the ML and FL even before i knew this series will be adapted to a TV drama..so i really happy and support them as ML and FL.. but the director indeed took a different path of story and thats why the FL feel a bit bland in terms of character..even ML too..
in the novel, ML portrays as a strong,ice cold and decisive General..even the emperor show him enormous respect (sometimes i got a feeling that emperor a bit scared towards ML)..ML get a nickname as King of Hell bcs he has killer aura and even at first encounter with FL, FL call him brute..lol..
FL portrays as a delicate, pampered,famous and talented general daughter..FL flourishing moments are happen before marriage..she is very smart when encounter with bullying from her sister ming chu, princesses and concubines from king's harem..
about ML and FL relationship actually much much more on fire than in the drama..but i can understand why director cant use this path bcs it will be fully censored..lol..for your imagination, after their wedding, from the first night, they make love almost every chances appear until all the servants lack of sleep almost every night..hahaha..

Legend of journey controversy?what kind of controversy?is this cheng yi drama with nazha?i only remember cheng yi upcoming drama are sword and beloved and VoA..totally forget actually there is this one too..hahaha..the list getting longer then..

Aah i see..hmm good sense of you..actually there will more story for FL father since in the synopsis already spill about framing..

I saw the previews but cant get a glimpse about FL father..im sorry to ask, did you somehow miss recognize FL father with marquis of Cheng En that got arrested bcs he bribe to make his son pass the exam?

Aah i see..lets enjoy it then..there are a lot of dramas this summer to watch..still many on my list..hahaha..

Currently im just starting to watch PoB and somehow i get the feeling the ML suppose to be a flirt although i never read the novel so i guess this PoB adaptation is another drama that took a different path to eliminating strong sexual references.. CMIIW

Yes true..but the amount of bedroom activities in this novel is enormous compare to AaSoL bcs it already happen since day 1 of their marriage..lol

hahaha..then just wait for another week to watch BPiL haocun and anyu..torture yourself as you please..hahaha..

then you must start watching LoZH and you've got yourself waiting for 3 dramas at the same time.. haha ..

there is no clear explanation in the novel but my interpretation is ML like to be in the military and since he wants to bring peace in the border and balance the kingdom, so he gives the title to his cousin so they can hand in hand protect the kingdom from inside and outside..but there is power struggle between empress dowager and the present emperor and i believe you guys already notice that also..

i hope not but after all this is adaptation..yess..exactly..if you already starting to read, you will understand my point about the 3 character i mention..you will experience the steamy story between ML and FL..lol..funny though..they are like disaster cute couple..messy but cute..180 degree two different character yet they love each other so deeply..

i believe the director add this kind of thing to make different path of story bcs in the novel, ML and FL is very on fire in terms of bed activity..lol..since they cant follow through this kind of story in tv drama, so maybe director make it like the FL very shy and naive about sexual activity..

they are cousin..the late emperor was ML father..ML didnt want to be the king so he gives the emperor title to his cousin and choose to fight enemies at the border..empress dowager is not ML birth mom neither emperor birth mother..empress dowager rise to become empress when ML mother died early when ML still a kid..

novel version, her father alive until the end..although there will be misunderstanding FL towards ML bcs of ML trying to uncover corruption within the kingdom and endanger FL father's life..no divorced too since they love each other..just angry and sulking FL and the need to be coax patiently by ML bcos of this misunderstanding..

as i already read the novel before i knew this getting adapted, the ML and FL really do match as i imagined.. but they cut 3 character that in my opinion make the story more rich because this 3 character really do shape FL story more interesting..still, im happy to watch this drama.. it sets different tone than the novel entirely..
the novel version is on fire in physical contact start from day 1 they consummate the marriage.. if you know what i mean..lol..

I guess the episode you watch is ep 8..it got skipped 2 episodes..check the opening episode..it will show the episode number is this 八 ..

especially her eyes when smiling..truly very hard to forget..

In the novel, she is not..but she is a pampered General's Daughter..but like we all know that director can also redirect the story towards his version..
