Episode 35 (penultimate): For love At the end of the episode, some tears fell from my eyes. Again, this ? A poison with no cure? I know that Shen Zai Ye chose to be the guinea pig for poison (as if to say: either we will be saved together, or we will die together?, as a couple. But.... that he used an animal as a guinea pig, better than using a human being (now he will have to fight in the next episode, and he may become weak). JTH's master is another with a heroic personality, in addition to being under the poison as well, he let himself be carried away by Empress Lv to save his subordinates, as well as protected the edict to be delivered to the rightful heir to the throne: JTH's brother. (The scene in which Shen Zai Ye takes the poison and feels remorse for the pain JTH felt in the past, showing the scenes and his thoughts was striking and beautiful. (It's the drama showing this harmony between them), but I wonder (Why did it have to be this way ???). They at the table touching each other's hands. (I liked to see this. Every sweet interaction between them is very good to see. I just wish there were more). Empress Lv is being a monster really in these last few episodes. (I think the screenwriter really came back), in addition to the feelings being more plausible between the main couple, there is the suspense part, traps that test the brain (in the dungeon where the edict was), which JTH was tested by her master to find out if she was still a person of integrity (and then he delivers the real edict). And the woman that JTH saved by giving up the "false edict" turned out to be the creator of the poison (who said: I hate to owe a favor, I'll test some cure), and in that SZY offered to be the guinea pig (at the end of the episode, JTH is in hiding and witnesses SZY's suffering when taking the countervenom (the test antiduct), she suffers with him, at that moment, when she sees through the curtains the agony he is feeling, she cries (and says: Empress Lv, you will pay for all the suffering you are putting us through"). PS: Despite the regrets, this episode is still a great episode. All the heroes have weight in him, and the love between Shen Zai Ye and Jiang Tao Hua is subtle (and even desperate), but this love hangs in the air. And I liked that (better than the distance between them), although this is the episode that precedes the last episode. PS: The moment when Shen Zai Ye arrives with his gypsy outfit and his braided hair and runs to a JTH who also runs into him (I loved this sweetness between them) and loved that the other man in the room (the master) saw them together, that there is something, a strong bond of love between SZY and JTH. (but in a way it's like two heroes in the same room), in front of the woman they both have affection for. There was no love triangle in this drama, but here (it's just a very subtle and distant sign of something similar).
I've already looked for the novel everywhere (I don't think it exists and it's also not mentioned anywhere that it's inspired or based on any novel). I think it's probably an original script, and I read that the writers admire the script of the drama (true detective), which I've never watched.
They advertise this style of drama just like they did for "Unshakable Faith," another investigative drama starring Liu Xue Yi and Peng Xiaoran (with a ml role, with not many scenes), but which was a huge hit in China, with high ratings. When they decided to broadcast it (it was unexpected, without anyone expecting it, and without an official website), they resolved everything in a single minute. I think it might be the same with "Jagged Peaks."
There is rumor of age restrictions after The princess gambit had fallen hit the targets . Several platforms preferred…
Welcome! 😊✨ Welcome! (Plus another strong ml gray character in "Against the current", an S+ drama that LXY together with Tan Song Yun are filming now. (I think this drama, they will not harm the plot potential).
I don't know if it will be this year, as the advertising was so timid. I think if it were still in 2025, even this poster would have been updated by now.

I think this is a rumor. What they call YX, which are people who specialize in negative reviews to create "buzz" through negativity. This is counterproductive (the drama's script, the first half was fire, climbing in the heat to 26,000, almost reaching 30,000. It didn't reach that level due to the script changing the story's flow (if they had continued the pace and plot profile of the first half, they would have achieved more). But still, it's considered a "success," contrary to what some think. (He already has other works in the pipeline, a xianxia (Cong Shan), and a period drama, set in the Tang Dynasty, with actress Liu Yufei, from the film "Mulan" (Tearless Snow). That's the name of the drama.)
But they didn't have any scenes together in this drama.
I confused her with the other actress who was JTH's executioner. (I definitely agree, they have chemistry). Just one look from the two of them and we knew it.
Episode 34: This revenge is not over yet. I watched this episode and I didn't even feel the time passing. But in fact it is another one starting. First, Shen Zai Ye went to ask the emperor for justice for his parents. He recovered the official document that his father, 10 years ago, requested justice for his family, but at that moment Minister Meng ambushed him and caused the death of him and his wife. Prince Wuxia went out of his way with the emperor to help him (his brother-in-arms, Shen Zai Ye) win justice for his murdered parents. The emperor spoke stern words to the two, but they stood firm. The villain, Empress Lv survived the fire, and now wears a metal mask, covering half of her face. She killed the king of Beyuan, now intends to end the life of JYH's brother who can claim the throne. SZY gives up his post as chancellor and says that he prefers to go live with JTH among the people, to grow old with her. SZY and her cousin say goodbye (I always like it when they remember when they were kids). SZY advises his sister, who also advises him. In the kingdom of Beyuan, JTH's brother heroically faces his enemies who have caught him in an ambush. JTH arrives in Beyuan and meets her master (hers and her brother's). A still young man who is also controlled by Empress Lv (due to the poison she injected into him as well). Empress Lv arrived in the city and usurped the throne against the wishes of the ministers there, including sending one to be executed, killed. (In the next episode we will see SZY join the people, and I know that he will go to the kingdom of JTH to join the fight against what will happen there in the last two episodes). I think it's too little time to close yet an arc of revenge and a love story.
Starting 15 eps were good then it went off track ..Idk if they wrapped it good or not .... honestly many ppl dropped…
You have to watch it for yourself. Because although the atmosphere of the drama changed after episode 19 (the drama remains interesting with other elements), however, in these last 5 episodes, starting from episode 29, I felt the episodes had a bit of that atmosphere again (I heard that the writers of the first half came back to help with the script for the finale). (I'm finding these last episodes great, wonderful).
At the end of the episode, some tears fell from my eyes. Again, this ? A poison with no cure?

I hope the writers keep up the good writing in these last two episodes as well.
