Nightlight

I'm not exactly familiar with how rating is judged on here but I thought that 8.0 rating is pretty good??

Def for me. Don't care too much for logistics and just watch to enjoy it. Go back and poke holes and ask questions when you finish. In my opinion, that's the best way to watch any shows

Someone explained how it was in the novel but in the drama, my best guess is someone happened to be down there when it happened?

annietan18 explains what happened in the novel so I'd suggest just following that with some changes to fit the drama in the meantime:

In the novel, it was all totally different... HY wasn't blinded by the poison at all. He's blinded due to some bloodclot inside his brain.
HY was rescued by a medical grandmaster from Northern Bei which earlier received a prophesy that HY will be in danger and he needed to rescue him in order to stop DZY from being too powerful that she'd wiped off Northern Bei. Only HY was powerful enough to stop DZY from achieving that. So, the medical master actually camped there and waited for HY to fall from the cliff 😂. When HY did, he's surprised how badly injured HY was and he took him to Mo Shuang who was in hiding since she's supposed to be dead. The master sacrifice one of his disciples's heart and transplanted his heart to HY. In order to do that, he had to stop his blood flow (using qi movement and acupuncture techniques) frm pumping into his heart and some imbalancing of blood flow resulted a blood clot in his brain that made him blind. The master knew it's temporary but he couldn't undo the blood clot until he's much healthier. While the master went off to treat the other people, Mo Shuang took care of HY and HY left to see his dying father before the master came back. Much later, the master actually went to undo HY's blood clot but the master died after excessive fatigue and losing qi. HY regained his visionin time to rush to Wen Shou Yuanqin wedding which he thought it's DZY LMX wedding.
So, no flower involved!!

Ah, the trailer for 35-37 is on YouTube and based on what YouKu always does with them, the first one shown is ep 37

I loved ep 35 so much. I would've bawled my eyes out but I watched it in a public setting so that wasn't exactly an option. I'm looking forward to the next eps, esp to Ziyuan with white hair, I think it looks so pretty on her, but I also don't want it to end. Anyone else share the same feelings?

AHH I would've loved to see that! Really wish they added those details in or at the very least the one where he collects the stuff from her childhood!

This is a drama adaptation. In the novel, the second female lead dies and the "fl boy bestie" lives

Based on trailer, they won't reunite until ep 37 and at the earliest, end of 36 so...

I just finished the 68 eps one and I know this is really late but maybe you'd still want answers. In the 68 eps one, Gao Wen goes to the U.S. to further her career and forget about the past after her break up with Lei Yiming, which I don't know if it's shown in the cut version. Gao Wen doesn't appear on the show for like 10 episodes then so that's probably what happened to her

Yup, kinda sad but if it's a good story, I'll take it

I skipped pretty much every scene without DIlraba and honestly, it worked out completely fine. Def recommend doing that. Her role and the lead's role really don't clash too much so it's possible to just watch her.

Tbh, it's probably to fit as much of the novel into the show as much as possible since that plot line wasn't as important as the war and her time as Anle

I think it'd probably be explained/reveal in the next ep?

I'll have to guess it's because historical dramas are generally pretty historically inaccurate and they don't want inaccurate information to be spread, esp about history

Pretty late but I just started watching two days ago. The FL is genuinely one of the most annoying FL I've seen. She already has a boyfriend so focus on him instead of someone else's, even if they were your close friend. Gao Wen really suffered too much at the hands of her. I fully believe that if Mi Duo didn't alway go find Yiming for literally everything, him and Gao Wen could've been happy. The FL at this point seems really like she's one step away from being a homewrecker. She needs to make up her damn mind.

Also a fan of Reba so I might be bias

same, its the same plots with her over and over again and honestly her personality is bland and irritating. second FL was so much better.

1- yes
2- story, don't exactly know what you mean but tbh, the second female lead's story is so much more interesting. the first female lead honestly is really annoying and more or less have the same plot over and over again but in different circumstances. Nothing really different happens with her until half through the show.
3- got really bored of the main couple but the chemistry with the people the second female lead and second male lead date are pretty good
4- kiss scenes don't happen very often

The Han dynasty wasn't founded by someone with the last name "Han" so I don't think so. The novel took place in Ancient China in somewhere called "Yunxia", which I don't think ever existed in history so if I had to guess, it's probably only set in Ancient China in sort of like an alternate universe? I don't know how to explain it but I think it took place in a period that never existed in history

True, but according to some quick research, I'm pretty sure the silk road pretty much only opened up countries in the middle east. Also, I'm not sure exactly when Legend of Anle takes place so can't pinpoint whether the Silk Road was created at the time.

they look almost like xianxia hair, if you know what i mean, but in like a good way. ik she probably will only have it for a few eps though, what a shame
