Quick reply (at work) for now: I'm reading the Malicious Empress now and it's good. I don't think like Deng Wei in the role at all but I'm sure his fans would disagree :).

Good one! He likes to look at his favorite play! LOL. Thanks, I'll certainly check out the look when I rewatch.

That fan was his sexual come-on, AHahahaha. And she noticed it too, because when she imitated him in the black market, she brought along a fan. She made me chuckle so hard the moment she started her arrogant duke act while sitting down in front of Biao.

Yes, wouldn't have hurt to have at least one deep kiss, director! He had been soundly scolded on Weibo for a month, so maybe he'll pay attention.

Give me an example :).

View it as intellectual sex LOL. The two of them sparred verbally and flirted with double entendres and puns through their romance. A few times, he'd made his intention clear by telling her he intended to make her his wife. And the amount of clothing he gave her grew bolder item by item, until he made her change her whole dress (tainted by SYR) and she came out wearing HIS, like they'd been intimate not long before. Now if that's not intellectual sex, I don't know what is, LOL.

23, 24 and 25 are the best episodes!

Yw! In your case, the director did his job :D. I'm at the moment rewatching and counting the number of times through the drama the director uses a closeup of reaction shots during a tense reactionary moment (ala during the qin contest and also the Emperor/court episode). This drama was riveting because this director used certain "tricks" of the trade to involve our anticipation and this was one of them. Cheers!

Thank you. Interesting changes, since it was done by writer herself.

I meant the ending. If it was just a dream, then they wouldn't be showing that XL arrived to save her and then take away the memories in her mirror. Then it wouldn't have happened so it wouldn't be drama canon, and therefore, no possibility of her ever knowing :). It's my very roundabout way of torturing myself, LOL.

Is it possible for you to cut and paste this novel and message me too? I need this melon! #preparingTableofMelonSeeds Pretty please?

All I want is for XY to KNOW what he did, over and over. Dammit, Snakes!

Ugh on the leaked script. Then XL's most important sacrifice would have been cut out too. Bah.

Oooh, I hope they will record it to show the video to those who couldn't be there.

No, actually, in the drama, it's even clearer that it's not one-sided, LOL.

I read on another website that everyone was moping because everyone was c*ckblocked, including WSL. It made me laughed and laughed.

More Xiang Liu is always good! But the need to give Jing more excuses is bad. lol.

Jiang Li in the drama was probably 18 or 19 ( but not 20) and XFF was probably in her early 20s they aged. Jiang Li up because having XFF looking 16 would be pushing it, LOL.

Huh? I think you have entered the wrong forum to discuss another drama.

YW. It was the odd camera work that got my attention. 🙂. I had a wonderful film study professor who always point out important things about camera POV and directing choices and his lessons stuck. I hope you find the rewatch just as enriching and fun as I did.
