Not blaming Dylan. There were too many cast changes in general with the Ye Hongyu, Li Yu, Emperor, and Empress, etc. And all the new actors interpreted their characters so differently that my mind just couldn't accept it was the same drama.
For those that have read the novel and mentioned that they gave certain scenes from PWX to SRQ instead: Can you tell me what they are? I'm particularly curious about which things that happened in the drama should've actually been for PWX. I really like PWX, but he just feels like such an underdeveloped character. I'm curious if the novel does a better job. Thank you!
I have a question. Hoping someone can help me explain it all.
So nut sack said that her brother ordered them to kill her. But I thought nut sack and Shangguan Ya were on opposing sides vs Li Chuan. Nut sack and SY wanted to install her and SRH's child as crown prince, while LC wanted QZZ's kid as crown prince. How come they teamed up to kill her? Wouldn't nut sack and SY want LR to be around to support their kid since she supported their prince? I don't really understand why they worked together, when nut sack seems to hate LC so much.
Okay I will give you guys full accountin previous life Emperor/ML led an expedition to the North to conquer it…
Yes, but instead they're white washing SRQ and trying to make Li Chuan seem like a monster. I really dislike the producers/screenwriters. It makes no sense to me!
How can she trust and be so easily persuaded by one of the ones that conspired to let her die? She's calling her…
but why are they dumbing down the female lead so much? she's not supposed to be dumb!! Her character is getting trashed completely just to prop snake up. I'm just so sick of it.
How can she trust and be so easily persuaded by one of the ones that conspired to let her die? She's calling her brother a monster based on what SRQ said only. Has she even thought about how she was part of the problem in her previous life that drove her brother to become what he was? Her brother had every right to want QZZ's son as heir to the throne, considering the other kid wasn't even his. Her brother so far has proved his devoted loyalty to her and their empress mother. All I saw in their first life was her and the empress disappointing him and constantly trying to control him for the noble families.
Then instead of consulting with PWX, the one person who always gave her the benefit of the doubt , trusted and loved her all these years, she decides to call that snake over? What happened to that whole self righteous speech to PWX about his life isn't just his anymore and that he should consult her before doing dangerous things?
She's also lashing out at Shangguan Ya when SY hasn't even done anything yet. I don't see her lashing out like that at SRQ before when she thought he killed her? He just got a soft "I can forgive you if you kill me because I understand you had your reasons. But if you kill him, I will hate you forever" She understands if SRQ kills her but not everyone else? What's with the double standard?!
I'm so over this show. I thought we were finally making progress, and now we're back at square one.
I think in this drama it's shown how the noble people are very family oriented but the humble ones would sacrifice…
I think it depends on the family. The Qin family aren't noble born but they have a strong familial bond. I wouldn't use Consort Rou or Uncle Pei as a representative of all humble born. Like in real life, there are good and bad people everywhere
I'm sorry, but what the actual f*$%$^ is that Ep 33 preview with SRQ and LR spinning in slow mo with soft background music? Why do they keep inserting these romantic scenes for second male lead? This is why people keep scolding the female lead for not being clear about her feelings. They create all these unnecessary scenes that are supposed to be romantic when she has clearly said she doesn't like him that way. I don't dislike the character's backstory itself, but these scenes are so friggin unnecessary and try hard.
I'm ok with SRQ character playing the main villain /3rd wheel role the drama. I just think they miscast the character.…
I agree, I think the character itself has a nice tragic set up that most people can sympathize with. However, the actor who plays it is just too green. He does every thing text book, when the character is sad, he pouts and looks mopey. when the character is angry he does the eyebrow furrow. All basic crap. He doesn't infuse any charm or charisma into the character. He's young and he has time to improve, but he definitely is a big sore spot for me in this drama.
