I dont know what happens in the novel at the end, but im hoping that we can get a good ending in the real world.…
I want to tell you this is what happened in the novel! They had 2 chapters dedicated to the real world! But by the emojis in the schedule I don't think its going to happen like that! If they can spend half an episode in the real world, it would be enough! I don't really blame the makers, censorship cut 8 episodes! They had to make adjustments!
It has not ended it! Express episodes are tomorrow! We have to wait!
The drama is adapted from a novel. The novel had a happy ending! So we all expect a happy ending! Plus it was really a fun transmigration drama, okay sometimes like these days very serious, but I think a happy ending is in cards! Do start its really nice, no boring episodes, great visuals, also a very good healthy relationship between the leads!
Anyone who wants to read the letter, again and cry!!
A Letter from Xiahou Dan to Wanyin
“My wife, Wanyin.
My name is Zhang San. In my third year of middle school, I got distracted in class playing on my phone… and somehow got sucked into this book. It’s been sixteen years and eight months since then. By that calculation, I’ve actually spent more time being Xiahou Dan than I ever did being Zhang San. Sometimes I suddenly begin to doubt whether the world outside the book truly exists, or if it’s just a delusion born from my sick mind… Until you ask that question "how are you". So it turns out everything was real. So I once truly lived—flesh and blood. I'm a despicable person. In that very instant, you saved me. And yet, in the very next second, I drew up a plan to deceive you—to win your trust, to become your ally, and to make the script in your hands serve my own purposes. Only in this way could I secure victory in the safest manner—so that the Empress Dowager and Prince Duan would pay their blood debt in blood. In front of you, I not only carefully glossed over my past, I even deliberately controlled my words and actions, trying my best to play the ‘modern man’ you were familiar with. Whether you believe it or not… when I became Zhang San again in front of you... only then did I begin, little by little, to realize just how far I had drifted away from who I once was.
As Zhang San, loving you seemed only natural. But as Xiahou Dan, it was almost an obsession. Wanyin, if anything were to happen to you, I wouldn’t be able to go on living. I can’t even say when I fell in love with you. I only know that from that moment on… I became even more afraid of being exposed.
You came too late, Wanyin. There is no one of your kind left here waiting for you. All you are left with is me—a madman with little time remaining. A drowning person always prays to grasp a piece of driftwood. But when they’ve drifted too far from shore and are beyond saving, if they cling to that driftwood too tightly… they’ll only drag it down into the water with them.
At the very least, I can keep your hands free of blood. At the very least, there can be one place where you can sleep in peace. I just hope to delay—if only a little—the moment when I have to face the fear and wariness in your eyes. More than anything, I hope to see you forever blazing like fire, bright and pure as the moon.
You, my fierce girl who can cut down all obstacles in your path— If you ever feel afraid or shaken, if you need someone like you to give you strength… then I will play that role. I’ll be that kindred spirit for you, all the way until the day I die.
Wanyin, I no longer have a homeland. You are my homeland.”
honestly why didn’t the boulder take him out all together
Because that would kill him! Death is easier. He should feel the pain of being disabled! That would torture him! Also he deserves to be defeated by FL and ML. His ego would be bruised! His pain would be tremendous! Him being locked up for a while, being disabled, without hope, him experiencing what finally loosing means, will be so so much better than death!
ugh! was there a reason why Dan saved the Empress Dowager at the Maseoleum? I’m about to watch episode 20 so…
I don't remember if this was clearly said, but in bits and pieces, in many episodes from ep 20 onwards, ML indicated the following! If you want to know you can read it, or you can just wait if you want to avoid the Spoiler!
Empress cannot be killed in the hands of Yan people! This is because no matter what the peace talks need to go through, the war needs to stop! If the people of the country know that Emperor held peace talks with a country whose people killed their Empress Dowager, they will not like it. Even Duan can manipulate the entire thing! Plus Empress Dowager needs to be alive till Emperor has won over her faction of ministers, if she suddenly dies through a weapon, in the presence of ML, he will be the one who failed to protect her. So her death, should be a kind of an illness!
The secret guards are safe! They are shown in the episode! ML did not kill them, it was very obvious, just like he did not cage FL in her chambers, he lost his sanity said things, but did not implement them!
Both have sad backstories. But ML is ill? He develops split personality. SML is completely okay. ML has been poisoned…
No I am really sorry to break it to you, this has nothing to do with men! He has PTSD, he is the victim, he is the patient! Mental health issues do not work the way you think, I am saying as a person who has first hand information about it! My grandmother in her last years was a patient before eventually passing away! In her last years, she used to suddenly have "fits". I don't know what it is exactly called, but the place I belong its called "fits". It was for a minute or more, and she used to angry, throw things, break things. Its not that she did not recognize her husband or son, she couldn't control what she did. She has injured my grandpa few times. At that time, she had lost her sanity! She used to fine after few minutes, and really feel bad and cry about it! It was not in her hands! She eventually passed away! But it doesn't really matter if you are 12 or 52, its not controllable! You might have heard people with mental health issues doing crimes, and being sent to get treated first instead of getting of execution, there are also special pardons in extreme cases! ML suffered this since his childhood, he kept away from FL always when he faced them. Because he was poisoned again, his difficulties increased and it was in front of FL. He is a victim, blaming him is bad!
I enjoyed all the episodes I’ve watched so far, except for episode 24. There’s something I don’t understand:…
It has nothing to do with men. Till now he has kept away from FL whenever he has the disorder. This is the only time he couldn't, because he faced this when she was almost kidnapped. When a person has lost his sanity, what he does is part of mental health issues not misogyny.
Yes it can be your perception that an intimate moment shouldn't be done at this point, but firstly it was initiated by FL! Secondly the drama will follow the course how the novel is written!
Was that A Bai as military general?? Why's he there? I thought he returned to that mountain where nameless immortal…
We have to wait for the episodes to release to answer your first question! But I clearly remember him telling Bei Zhou in the forest, that he had some other order to follow given by the Majesty! Bei Zhou even asked him, but he refused to answer. He did not return to his master!
She is not in a very prominent role! Showed once in a flashback, for a 2 seconds. She was a slave or a woman hired…
Yes he was drugged by his stepmother, and then forced by the woman! The entire thing was orchestrated by his step mother. They will mention it in 18-19 episodes! The woman was later killed, the novel mentions it! Drama doesn't mention anything about the woman just the act! Yes as you are in episode 10, you know now, he transmigrated as a kid, the Zhang San's diary memories, its him when he just entered the book!
It only made sense, to be honest. She had always been an emphatic person, and that side of her had been shown…
Exactly! I have seen stupid ML/FL characters, but here FL isn't like that! I also don't think ML was wrong, it was just he doesn't trust 2D characters maybe because of his traumatic experience, I don't blame him! It was just difference in perception! No one was as such wrong! That is why when ML became normal, he apologized and so did FL! That's a very healthy communication! She took 2 minutes to understand there must be something wrong with ML, that's why she ran to him, she is such a nice as well as an intelligent character, far from being stubborn!
watching ep 23 wanyin why are you so stubborn? she shouldn't have gone out she risked her safety and the safety…
If people working for them are dying, people who are sacrificing their lives for the country are dying, as Emperor or Empress on whose personal orders they were working, and they don't even attend the funeral or meet them for one last time, then just like what that scholar Luo Yunxi said its as if their lives don't matter. Practicality is important, but if FL and ML don't even show a little sentiments for the people who die for them, they wouldn't be loyal anymore! They have to trust that the emperor is on their side! That doesn't mean ML was wrong! It was a difference in perception, no one was wrong!
I don't exactly get you! But ML and FL are from the same world/universe! They both are transmigrated to a different…
Yeah SFL is a modern person! SFL has transmigrated from a modern world to a historical world! But SFL thinks that she is a real person, she thinks she transmigrated into a novel, which is true, but she doesn't know that even her world is part of the novel! ML and FL know SFL is a 2D character, SFL doesn't know that, she thinks both FL and ML as well as herself belong from the same world!
If they can spend half an episode in the real world, it would be enough! I don't really blame the makers, censorship cut 8 episodes! They had to make adjustments!
So we all expect a happy ending!
Plus it was really a fun transmigration drama, okay sometimes like these days very serious, but I think a happy ending is in cards!
