one of the best drama!! best part is never ever seen a historical drama with such clear headed, intelligent and loving royal siblings with beautiful loving bond!!! they never schemed against each other. very refreshing to see.

Happy birthday cutie!!! Hoping for blast next year!! This year I got a load of ZLH dramas, wishing for the same for next year…Wishing for some explosive characters for you!!

I was away from the forum for few days and there is so so in depth convos!! I want to join but right now I don’t have the time…I will definitely come back later to give my opinion…and red/green/grey/yellow whatever the flag color is I am totally in for XW! Call me colorblind!!! BTW here your FL is also not a typical pure white girl…she is manipulative enough…sometimes you will feel irritated at her manipulations as those are really of selfish motives. So all I can say as Xie Wei said,” They are suitable for each other”

It was in Netflix few months ago…I definitely saw the title…but now it’s gone….gonna suffer through the websites again..😒😒 I wish I had seen it there…

Thanks! No I haven’t watched that…definitely will be in my watchlist…

I’ve already seen that short drama too…I‘ve created a new profile in MDL but I’m watching k-drama and c-drama I can say myself a veteran watcher. So there is very few good dramas I have not watched. I am an avid binger…so when mood comes I am like eat drama, sleep drama person and some months ago got a binging period of short dramas only!!!! I think I am gonna switch to k-dramas for a time period because no other c-drama is attracting me anymore….after a few weeks will come back here and scroll through to see if there anything worthwhile to watch. I have put on k-dramas on shelf for a few months now….mainly because of ZLH. Got a huge crush on him…..now it’s time to move on. Thanks for the recommendation though…

She has some preexisting context for ZZ and XW from her previous life. And also profound guilt for ruining ZZ’s life and career.. I think that’s why she was so sure that ZZ is the best one in the world…total different from her in saying and doing. She was attracted by power but ZZ didn’t care about it, she is scheming, he is upright. In her point of view she was and is a bad person, so whoever is different from her should be good. She didn’t take consideration of XW at first I think she was so afraid of him that she couldn’t see those….and when she saw she couldn’t believe it. She has very few interactions with XW in her previous life and those she had was scary ones. He was the only one in her previous life who didn’t bow to her beauty…so she never thought that as a person he can like her. It is like that from my point of view. She knew ZZ will fall for her as he fell before, Yan Lin always likes her but XW was like a unknown deity. But it was made evident to us viewers that she is very much herself with XW.. playful, naughty, scheming and he is always indulgent to her… They themselves noticed it later. With ZZ she put on a good and timid front to attract him.

I also liked the scene there….One of the best part of this drama is main characters are smart and insightful. I really loved that how Yan MU got suspicious so early about XW’s real identity. Here on coming of age ceremony they just confirmed it with each other. I also liked that the emperor was intelligent too and not blinded by filial piety like almost in all dramas where relatives can do no bad thing… Here schemes got cut by more schemes….

I’m still lurking here like an unsatisfied soul!! Give me some idea how to get over this drama!

So true…Bai Lu is breathtaking here!! Whenever she got on screen I just wondered how can one be so beautiful!!! And I am crazy fan of ZLH….after years I am having heart stopping crush on some celebrity… so I won’t say much about him… otherwise I can write whole day and night why he is so so so handsome!!!! This drama took every advantage of it’s overly good looking leads!!

You can try kisskh, usually all new dramas are available there

Some new thoughts after rewatching… Really liked the fact that the emperor and XW was one step ahead in scheming than the villains!! In maximum dramas villains are always better at that, but this is the pro of having a grey lead…I think. And again I want to say Bai Lu is so beautiful as JXN…her makeup, jewelry, attire everything compliment her.

She didn’t even realized that ML have feelings for her other than scheming partner before episode 30…she didn’t dare!! In her past life XW was a scary character… though she got to know him better but to think that he has romantic feelings for her was beyond her imagination. Even when he revealed some emotion she didn’t want to believe it until he spelled it out.

Rewatching and LMAO on epi 30, got caught by dad!!! Arrogant XW….

At rewatch, appearance of jealous XW as early as episode 11….and his and Ninger’s cute banter!! They are always bantering… But I have a question…did XW liked her even in previous life???

Same here!! It was also my first drama 9 years ago…and I am still in so much k-drama high!

My very first k-drama!!! I’ve watched this on 2014 and totally got hooked in k-drama world! Still I am here… In those days we the international fans were all watching the “Boys over Flowers” and almost for everyone this was their first drama. But I got sidetracked somehow and got this one delivered to me in a pen drive along with some movies. As I was free as a bird in that period I gave it a go. And now here I am 9 years later, watched numerous shows and still surfing here to get some recommendations!!

This was the drama which introduced me to the c-drama world and it was in 2016. So it has a special place in my watching list. Though I have discovered so much better masterpieces later it will be always my favorite.

I felt so sad during Qiang Qinci retirement!!! They portrayed the feeling really well. But sometimes felt really frustrated at the FL…and ML is a character out of world, that’s why May be he kept tolerating her awkwardness….But as a whole a nice watch to pass your time by.

Not that much bad as some reviews are saying!! I do love some light hearted love story where you don’t have the “If you miss a dialogue you miss the whole drama plot” type of seriousness!!! It’s good to go , specially if you want to have light sweet entertainment…
