I think there will another bigger heart break later on when FL chooses her son over him .....

I think he forgot that "love" must exist first for someone to be able to feel jealousy. And he knew very well that Ming Yu didn't love him. Somebody needed to teach him how to court a woman, hahaha.

Let me in to your dream bubble, too please ......

Seeing the direction of the story, I am pretty sure Ming Yu pregnancy will come out from a rape (either by force or by threat). The emperor just a man whose pride is hurt. That with all his position and care, there is a woman who still prefer another man. Not to mention, his conscience must have reminded him everyday that his throne is a stolen throne.

Su Yu Ying teaches us that spoiling could lead to disaster of personality. Pretty sure she grew up spoiled without anybody dare told her not to do something. Hopefully lots of parents of there watching this. Person like Su Yu Ying also exist in reality.

The opposite is also true though. There are wives out there who wondering why their husband don't love them enough while all they do everyday is throwing tantrum and only know how to demand, hahahaha. That's why this drama is so interesting. Unlike L&R which gave us perfect lover in the form of Si Feng, this drama gives us example of flawed human being.

The worst of human, that we usually waved off in the real life was shown here. It was so ugly. Xiao Cheng Rui and the empress hypocrisy, Su Yu Ying selfishness, I believe actually exist in real life, too. But, here we see how their act hurting the others so much.

Finish watching until episode 22. Cheng Xu is too kind!! He should have divorced Su Yu Ying!!

This drama is interesting. It shows male and female at their worst in regard of unrequited love. And it is so resounding with real life. The male, represented by the emperor Xiao Cheng Rui. He thought with his power and lavish gift, he could have all woman he wanted, including their heart. He forgot that people heart is can only be given voluntarily, cannot be taken by force. I suspect sooner or later he will raped her, thinking that it would make her yield. He doesn't know, once you take woman by force, you are forever barred from her heart. Nothing you do will matter anymore.

On the female side, we have Su Yu Ying. She has this obsession with Cheng Xu. She doesn't care that he loves another woman. In her mind, as long she married to him, he will care for her. And she thought when she threw temper tantrum by torturing his servant, he will realized his fault and be kind to her. Well, life doesn't work by that rule. Once a man disgusted with a certain woman personality, her beauty will no longer matter. She can be the most beautiful woman in the world and he will never look on her twice.

Hahahaha, seems fair enough. The pace certainly not the best. I just wish all of us do not give a bad rating based on genre preference but truly based on the drama quality as a whole. Even more, we are still in the first half of the story.

I understand that this is depressing. But there are people who actually love this kind of genre. I just hope we can rate a drama based on storytelling, script integrity, and acting, and not just because the story not compelling enough for you. I have friend who looks for exactly this kind of tragedy drama. But, because of the rating, she might avoid it thinking that this is a bad drama.

If you don't like the current direction of story and this is not your cup of tea, please refrain giving a rating this early because your evaluation will be clouded by your preferences, not a fair one. If by the end of the drama, you still feel this is a garbage drama, then by all mean give your rating.

Start watching this week episodes tonight. Will be able to discuss with all of you shortly.

I see that the rating for this drama goes lower and lower? The decrease is too fast to be normal. What happen? We are still very early in the drama (not even half). Good or bad, you still cannot say. I really hope people will not give low rate just because the drama is not their cup of tea.

Thank you!! Li Yan looks so handsome really.

Perhaps some people just found him easy target to attack since he is a person who will only take all of it in silent. Especially when he was not yet popular back then. It is so sad that he has experience online attack before and that was the cause of him withdrew from online world.

I read that about Noble Aspiration. I am planning to watch that drama anyway. So I will soon find out what that's all about. I hate it when people blaming the script for their bias failure in a drama. In a drama, those with most skilled acting, the most with presence, will always steal a spotlight, no matter how much the onscreen time.

Hahahaha!! I never thought that was his reason to hid his face like that. I know he doesn't go online much. But I hope his staff member could tell him something.

Sometimes I feel that he doesn't realized that he is that popular and his acting is that GOOD. Or perhaps he is just that humble, I don't know.

It will be the best outcome for him. His current fans that still out there defending him is his true fans. I hope he takes heart and stand tall despite all this pressure, knowing there are people out there who will always support him.

Yea, I also don't think they are truly his fans. Perhaps just those fickle people who just go with the flow.

Really? The Promise of Chang An is not affected by this fiasco? What a relief!! Then I can hope there will be no change in his other drama release date, too ^_^. So happy. I am so worried that the higher up will choose to shelve his drama because of fear of backlash.

Actually, if his current drama is really not affected, then perhaps all this fiasco only looks big on the surface while in reality most people are chill about this.

I heard that Imperial Age was finished filming years ago?! I will watch for Cheng Yi part to see how his acting skill back then compared to now.

There was one poster who also admiring his hand, I forgot who. Hahahaha! I think it because his slim fingers just simply beautiful so our eyes just could not help drawn to it. Human naturally loves beautiful thing, hehe

Aaa, I see, hahahaha!! Well, even within Chinese actors, there are also a number who cannot pull that long hair and flowing robe well. Cheng Yi here just fortunately born with face and body build that enable him to look so beautiful in that get up.

I know I will sound like a freak here, but everytime the drama focused on his hand, I see that he has such beautiful long slim finger. Same with his feet finger (they showed this in one scene in The Promise of Chang An). So yea lucky him. Those body quality could not be gotten from any plastic surgery.

From my years watching chinese drama, other actors that really look beautiful in ancient grab are Li Hong Yi, Luo Yun Xi and Zhu Yi Long.

Exactly!! And I think actor is different from idol? In my understanding, pure actor usually not interacted much with their fans and focus more on acting only?! Or I am wrong .......

If you deemed that both of them are of no fault, then no one should be bullied because of that event. What I wanted to say, if people wanted to blame the actors because they wished to see their CP, then the blame should lie on both Cheng Yi and Yuan Bing Yuan. Doesn't mean I agree that people should blame them. In my opinion, the people is better of putting their anger to the company.

I also hope that this fiasco did nothing to their career and relationship. It will be tragedy.
