Agreed, not a perfect show.

Probably will have to wait for an official announcement before they can be added

Sigh. 😞

Yes, his "love brain" getting to the better of him is so overused 2nd ML nonsense. I hope it is short-lived.

I haven't read the novel, but I hope Li Huai'an doesn't turn into evil 2nd ML...it would be such a waste. I don't think so though. They've set him up as a person trying to avoid both sides of the Li-Wei power struggle and someone who longs for the greater good.

Pretty typical historical idol romance stuff though. I’m at ep 32. I really hope the second ML doesn’t suddenly become stupid or annoying…

It's not as blatantly unrealistic as some other dramas, so it hasn't been a bit deal for me. I'm used to suspending disbelief for idol dramas in general.

I'm used to it with these types of shows, so it doesn't really bother me as much as others perhaps. If it were aiming to be a realistic war story or army story primarily, then yes, the training journey would need to be emphasized. I'm actually quite enjoying Changyu's overall character arc and story - much more than Xie Zheng's.

There’s a lot of suspension of disbelief needed for the drama in this matter for sure.

Yeah me too

I hope it gets release this year, but you never know with these things…

I tried to submit an alternative synopsis, but it was rejected. Maybe once it’s released I’ll try again

Catching up. Why is it now only 1 episode a day? Sighs...

Rumors have been pointing to Q2 (Apr-June), more likely May or June since I think iqiyi’s schedule for April is pretty full already.

Pleasantly surprised at where this story and script is going at the halfway point. If the first part was a snowy dreamy romance, then this middle section is where we've all woken up from the dream and have to face reality. The world is complicated, wars are raging, and there are all kinds of complicated people out there.

Loved that too. Man needs some humble pie.

I believe those rumors were refuted.

Today's episodes were a nice payoff from the last several episodes of build up. Nicely done.

Not a fan of the director's style, so like I said, cautiously optimistic. I wasn't aware of the other stuff (you can check ChunTian's post), which is also sighs.
