the one with the bandits while travelling in carraiges wasn't a coincidence. Gu Ting Ye decided to go back and…
Yes you're right I don't mind it that much as long as they bond.

Truthfully, if you think of Pride and Prejudice the coincidences line up as well. Darcy just happens to visit…
Pride and prejudice is my favorite novel of all time. I did catch the similarities between the two. I honestly think it's good as long as the two main leads bond over it :)

Yes I know that part when they were going back from their Hometown, GTY traveled along with them to protect ML. What I am talking about is in episode 25 when one of the Elderly women in Minglan's hometown died and they were carrying her funeral ceremony in that forest and then the bandits attacked the caravans carrying minglan. Then GTY arrived with his army and saved her from the bandits. He was able to save her because he was stationed near her hometown. I am saying it's too coincidental. However I don't mind it that much anymore.

Title The Story of Ming Lan Spoiler
I just finished Story Of Yanxi Palace and was in detox mode lol, so I needed another history drama to watch, but I couldn't find one as good as SOYP with the same stetting or a realistic representation of a certain time period but all I found was those Wuxia/fantasy types which I am not really a fan of. But luckily I found this series. I went into this drama not expecting much, I honestly didn't know where it was headed and was going to drop it due to slow pacing , BUT thank god I didn't drop it. It picked up quite well and got more and more interesting as the show went on. I was really impressed with the directing and cinematography and the calm, smooth and easy going atmosphere of the show. The Characters, actors and the time period clothes were beautiful. I'd have to say it's still pretty slow paced and nothing major is happening. I don't mind it actually. I like seeing how minglan deals with the different situations, problems and people, and seeing her character become more stronger. One thing I didn't like about the story is that coincidence is very prominent especially concerning the two leads. When GTY saves ML from drowning he just HAPPENS to be at a near ship. When he saves her from the bandits attacking the funeral he just HAPPENS to be stationed near her hometown. When he saves her when she was on that carriage dressed as a eunuch from the assassins he just HAPPENS to be there for some reason (saw it on one of the teasers to the next episodes). I am just patiently waiting for them to get married and their romance to bloom.
