There is another cousin that she is close to ... No concubine

This is not a generic drama that fits all tastes. It definitely divides.

Please stop calling any drama trash! I will report this as being offensive.

This plot development is perfect for me.

No one should be limited to their expectations and praise of any drama, especially if the praise is not offending anyone. However, name calling like "trash" should be taken out as it is offensive to others. You have to realize there are some fans here who have been waiting for this drama for a long time so they should be allowed to post what they want to say.

By using unflattering words "trash" you are insulting the taste of others. I think it's best to say that it doesn't fit your taste/expectations instead of resorting to name-calling. And if you want to be helpful, give specific details why you don't like it so that others who share your taste can learn from you.

I myself expecting something different from watching so many C-dramas. I don't think it will change in vibes though ... you can watch the previews ... it has similar vibes. I think the script can be improved, but it is what it is.

You can watch the previews up to 10 ... it has similar vibes. I think people who don't like it, can stop watching. It is what it is. It's a different type of drama. It may not fit your taste but it isn't "trash" ... By using unflattering words "trash" you are insulting the taste of others. I think it's best to say that it doesn't fit your taste instead of resorting to name-calling.

It's not a waste ... depending on taste. If you like war and politics, this drama will have some but may not be as much as you expect. There will be some political things, but they are backdrops of the development of the female lead's character. After all, she has 3 suitors ... so you can tell already that it's going to be a romantic drama.

Yep, the mother herself will go through a character development. When CSS develops relationship with another more nurturing female, she feels left-out.

I think there will be a lot of women in this drama. It might not be for you if you don't like female bickering.

It seems like the rest of the drama is following this tone with very minor changes to add more screen time for the ML.

It's the order of things ... they just change the order. They also changed the lantern meeting to make it more dramatic. So the meetings are in this order in the novel: 1) lantern 2) rescue 3) the horse after she became engaged. It seems that in the drama, the sequence is: 1) the hand 2) the lantern festival 3) the horse scene 4) the rescue.

I don't expect rating for this drama to be high because it's not fitting the mold of regular C-Drama. It's about taste so it may not match the popular taste. The rating is done by 1 person so I would not trust it.

I gave it a 10 for the 4 episodes ... I was told that you can rate each episode that you watch.

I put in a rating after the first 4 episodes but some how my rating doesn't count?

She is not the typical mother ... that is why she will regret later on when another motherly figures takes over the education of CSS.

There is a description of them in my translation of some excerpts in the Discussion ...

Unfortunately, yes, they could make it shorter. But I think this is the way Chinese Dramas are ... not like American movies. They hire these good side characters. They have to use them in the plot. Also, to make it worth their investment, there has to be a certain number of episodes.

They didn't
