You writing this is direct recommendation for your good taste :)
This is the only drama I ever rated as 10.
They are pure perfection.

This is my list of favorite drama https://kisskh.at/list/Lp6pOe84
And still none is even close to it.
Yesterday I wrote status on my feed about it. I guess we have to wait for the next Wang Xing Yue drama to beat his performance of Duke Su.

haha casket ready make up :)
@terra1000 i also wonder the same thing many times. I think c drama would have bigger global audience if they didn't push these casket ready make up :)

exactly. every word.

Indeed. Everyone should be scared of him, even Orchid if there was no heart curse.
Does that make him the scariest ML or is there scarier ML in C drama?

I had the same problem. I can't watch any drama of Esther Yu or Bu Guan Jin, although they seem popular. It gives of short drama quality :D, But Dongfang QingCang, his character development and his rivalry with Chang Heng is worth it if you stick through it. Also when they swapped bodies he didn't just act as a girl, he acted as main actress's interpretation of Orchid, and that was hilarious. Then all these things you don't like about FL interpretation become funny.

Duke Su is the best ML of all times. Perfection performance.

I love your list. Very similar to mine. I should probably check out your recommendations since our idea of good acting matches so well :)

Watched The Prisoner of Beauty, just finished it yesterday :)
I already listed him on my list of badass unapologetic powerful ML https://kisskh.at/list/3WWzvRg3

I agree, he is fierce, and unforgiving if you dare to mistreat the FL. Definitely in the category of MLs you don't want as your enemy.

Well for me Yu Shu Xin and Bu GuanJin are annoying style of acting, overacting. Like short drama quality level.
But Shen Yue is ok for me. She has this childish style of acting, but her character here is teenager, so I guess it can work. Also, their chemistry is good.
of course, always depends of personal preference. So if you're at episode 7 and you have enough curiosity to continue the show then just enjoy it.

Amazing squad. FL, ML and the 4 WEI. So true.

I even plan my binging haha, I surround myself with healthy favorite snacks, free my weekend schedule and just binge guilt free :) so enjoyable. And then I come here for comments just to share the excitement :)

Wow this ML goes straight to my list of badass unapologetic smart MLs.

These guys have reputation of bad guys, and although they are kind at heart, you don't wanna mess with their FLs. You will not be spared and forgiven.

Thank you everyone. I understand your point of view, you just have to ignore it if you want to enjoy it.

Just the idea of crossdressing FL with full make up on, feminine face, tiny body that hardly has any trace of sport but fitness, and if all that is not enough, her breasts are literally pointing at ML while he talks to her, and then these supersmart ML generals still are only suspicious of something else. Like seriously?
I need to dumb down to much to follow the plot.

The first logical thought when seeing female general crossdressing and pretending to be a male would be really worrisome. Female person would get beaten a lot at training sessions, to the point where putting such a person to the battle ground would be homocidal and endangering the batalion.
It makes FL look stupid for doing that, not smart.
And MLs look even dummer for not realising the obvious.

Like it's ok few episodes like in Long Ballad, or even better when at first contact ML realises like in Wonderland of Love, and then he uses the idea to make the most out of situation, help her goal and have few laughs.

I don't wanna ruin it for you guys who can still enjoy the plot. I was just curious, if someone feels the same.
I would like to find a strong powerful FL drama, who is not crossdressing. Who is herself. And uses strength that is typical for female build. Skills, agility, speed. Not raw strength what you need in combat and handling heavy armour.

thank you :)

fourth lady and her husband are so cute, I wished a show for just two of them and their love story. I usually hate amnesia plots but theirs was good, which means they are good actors, they made chemistry out of shi**y plot.

very good acting, they all have main character vibes and bright future ahead. Especially WXY, he is outstanding in all of his work.

Can you send me the link to the book? If there is a version in english..

I dropped the drama after 2 episodes for all those things you nicely explained here.

In short, this is a Chinese version of Little Women. I like it. It is a nice relaxing watch. FLs and MLs are all superstars in their delivery.
WXY is definitely a lead and the reason I watched this. And his performance confirms it.
and when it comes to FLs, the fifth daughter in the last few episodes really confirms as the true FL of the drama.
And the best couple chemistry is definitely forth daughter and her husband. They are so real and sweet :)

Often I see a drama with FL posing as a man, wearing mens clothes, and ML still falls for her, inspite of initially thinking she is a man, the romance begins. And when its finally discovered she is a female MLs be like: "Great. She is a girl. I was attracted to her from the beginning anyway".

That's confusing. Those MLs should probably consider their feelings deeper.

Ofcourse, it is alway visible she is a woman. Not just very feminine face, and make up, but also, you can see female build, chest are breasts. So also, thats another part where we should play along with stupid.

Is it just me? Or to you that looks convincing? Or you are so into plot that these things can't distract you from the main premise.
