Are you chinese literate? I have problem finding the novel’s eng translation. Did you read the original novel or the translation?

So glad Baichuan has more screentime here compared to EB 1. Love the interactions between her and ML. She’s like a younger sister who had to look out for this mischievous older brother who always gets into trouble and keep him in line. 🤣

And why th is the rating lower than S1? S2 is much more interesting and not as boring as S1.

Btw does anyone know where can I read the novel translation since theres no news of S3? I’ve looked for 2days but havent come up with anything at all. Even the link on shushengbar.net was dead and they removed it when i complained about it.

Thanks! Currently watching eternal brotherhood 2, i might start w FoF soon. Your comment just convinced me.

Same here. Dilin is an antihero who doesnt care about other’s life at all except for the three people he loved. Almost like a sociopathic serial killer. 😵‍💫🥴 he killed thousands of innocent palace guards just so xiu wont get on the chief’s bad side. Like seriously? How twisted is that? Real scary character.

Maybe because the original novel is about zichuan xiu’s coming from a different planet. Not sure about the adaptation cuz im in the middle of watching epi21. So far no hint of xiu’s origin yet. So no sci fi element at all so far. Oh well except for ep 1 with this one martial expert who seem to be able to stop time. But that’s just about it. That scene lasted about 5min maybe.

Oh btw Zichuan Xiu and Zichuan Ning isnt related by blood. Zichuan Xiu was adopted by Ning’s father and they grew up together.

And i think she’s got more screen time than Si Yilin. Although she’s only support character i’ve always rooted for her. She’s like a big sister who’s always trying to keep this rascal younger brother Xiu from getting into trouble all the time. 😂

Dilin is already married and very much in love with his wife. There are lovey dovey moments of them but of course not as many since theyre side couple and this story is more about politics and brotherhood instead of romance.

Same. In princess agent, the name was changed to yuwen so it would go in line with real timeline historically. Even the name of kingdom was changed to fit the real kingdoms historically instead of made up kingdom in the novel

Ah i see. Thanks for the reply. Then i might watch after i finish with a dream within a dream.

Yeah AJtL kinda became my vaccine against tragic endings. I am able to handle tragic endings now compared to before AJtL. It built my immunity so i dont get too worked up as much because no other tragic endings can top AJtL.😆

In AJtL, they killed all of the main and support characters. I cried for the whole of last 6 episodes cuz they kill off 1-2 characters each and lastly the main leads. It was the most devastating show ive ever watchhed. But because it was so good, i rewatched everything minus the last 2 episodes where they killed the main leads. I was traumatized for weeks post binge. If FoF is about the same, im definitely passing it.

How bad is the ending compared to A Journey to Love? This one tops my list of most tragic ending of all, but i never regretted watching it cuz it was that good. If it’s less tragic than AJtL then i might consider watching.

Thanks. I’ll pass then. 😬

So it has tragic ending ?

It’s from my fav novel The legend of chu qiao. Basically a remake of princess agent. Costume wuxia drama

The jiang family was sentenced as such because initially the emperor called jiang mei sun back to answer some accusations by the ministers against him. Because the emperor shouldnt be in the wrong, he had to sentence the jiang family even though duke of ding is innocent, because he never got to present his defense. Basically the emperor is saving the royal family’s face.

I cant wait to watch Rebirth, i really hope it wont get shelved. Li yunrui as zhuge yue is the bomb. I know he would definitely nail it, based on his performance in blossom and lltg. And i hope the screenwriter wont botch the adaptation like princess agent did.

And they only got married around 250ish chapter 😂

The novel is just too darn long with so many unnecessary side plots. Like how they found Song Mo’s sister very much alive but was married to a vile man who sold her to his friend to be raped. She was not even 15 yet. Gosh it’s so twisted. Chen Jia ended up marrying the sister after they saved her btw, not Zhao Zhangfu. The novel actually had potential, but the writer just didnt have the talent to make it work. With other novel (like my all time fav Legend of Chu Qiao - i read it 5 times since i saw the drama in 2020) i keep hoping they have more chapters one after another, and i feel bad when i reached the ending, but on the contrary with Blossom novel i keep thinking when the hell will this story end. I couldnt wait to reach the end of the book and be done with it.

Thats why i sang praises to the production in my review. They actually managed to turn this mediocre novel into an exciting drama on screen with just some changes on the plot. What a feat. I really love how they make songmo’s and dou zhao’s fate to entertwine before their deaths in the first episode. That’s truly brilliant.

I actually came here to read the synopsis from IQiyi. Saw it while i was browsing, already added it to my watchlist but havent started watching yet. Maybe it was not included in your region? Im in south east asia.

Girl, songmo only appers around ch101-102 i think. 😂 the first page where i read from only had 100 ch and song mo never appeared. I thought i read a wrong story from the Blossom adaptation 😂 turned out the page had an incomplete translation. Anyway, in the novel, songmo was never poisoned. The Novel Song Mo was also written to be very laid back and not as broken as the tv Song Mo who was consumed by revenge. Rest assured, song mo and dou zhao lived happily without any health issues between them from the moment they met til the end. Oh wait, yes song mo was poisoned when he was caned by the dad, but the poison only suppresses his inner strength so he couldnt fight back. The after effect never lingered beyond his 6m recuperation post father-son fall out, and it never threaten his life or his martial ability afterward.

Btw, The novel’s palace showdown is also very bland and not as exciting as the tv’s. Youre like me, i dont like tragic endings too, life is already full of that and it makes the hours that I spent on the plot seem pointless when the main couple die.
