Fighting in the falling petals of spring on He JingYuans front porch...
the remembered bout in snow between Wei QiLin and He JingYuan -- ChangYu may have your spirit sir, and her mother's beauty, but TXW does definitely not have your 'builfd' (bonedensity and weight and height?)! Ficional reality vs, the needs of a blockbuster.

After today I definitely have a total crush on QiMin. But you know, people going crazy from love and poor treatment are always solidly in the classic and operatic tradition.

It is time to create a way to talk about the novel, the leaks of off-takes and deliberately misleading shots by the team, the creation of AIs all over social media; we could think about them ALL AS ONE PHENOMENUM, since we really cant differentiate between them all except for the novel's actual existence in chinese, very long chinese. They all constitute extra chapters/fan fiction/alternate stories. A creative but alternate show. NOT the one we are actually watching.

I of course am an old-fashioned advocate for watching the whole show before passing judgement, but at least lets comment on the actual show. Rumors that QiMin tries to kill his own son, untrue. QianAQian poisons him, untrue. But I sort of resent having to think about that ahead of time.

It might make it easier also to understand who in the discussions is just looking for clicks and who is actually watching the show.

QianQian: As if I would sit there and wait to die!

that's my modern girl.

sorry, i dont have the link

The falcon is a large life-size puppet manipulated using wires.

it is 7 pm in the US and it will come out tomorrow on the dot of 6 am.

ep28
Bao'er is so proud and clever and collected on the run with Mr.Zhao. He will be a great Emperor.
Did you notice? He had actually started reading through the library of QiMin, his Dad. And he almost called him Da...

ep28
Mrs.Zhao told ChangYu that married couples who last [take the time to] support and understand each other.
It seemed as if she were setting them homework tasks.
Can JiuHeng understand how a woman needs space and agency? Can he figure out how to share himself and his life?
Can ChangYu learn enough about the decisions he has to make as a marquis to more fully support them?

How will this reconciliation come about?

unpopular opinion but i loved zlh dearly in our generation. i was really impressed when both he andzjm said that the director really pushed them to go deeper with their acting, and touched when zlh thought it was an impoprtant moment for him.
i mean, he was an electrical engineering student! he is a bit of a nerd.

Same here. I didnt like either of them very much, but loved LBFaD to the core, and I liked GoD.

yup.

Yeah, nobody is a hero to their spouse.

He has been driven mad. She is sane.

You made me laugh, but also think maybe she wont need pig-but chering knives except for special occasions from now on.

Wow, I read the comments down to the break and when I come back up here another 1000 have dropped. Crazy stuff.

The editor doesnt choose the scene changes and flow. The scriptwriter writes them, the director executes them.

and at the end of familiar stranger

There are a couple more armies....Prince ChangXin, the rebel Prince who currently holds Chongzhou has the Chongzhou army, with the Heir Sui YuanQing and the remaining shi brother general in charge of that and also in charge of a 30k force that was beseiging Beigu Mountain. So those are the enemy forces.

The army of General He JingYuan in Jizhou province is controlled by Wei Yan the Chancellor. The army at Yanzhou is the Marquis' army. These are the imperial armies of Dayin, 'our' side.

my eyes watered too
