So he’s been there for 15 years and has basically lived half his life there. In the time he was there he became…
Sorry I misread! But basically, he seemed to change because Zhang San entered Xiahou Dan’s body. Tbf OG XHD indeed was a tyrant and kind of deserved the ending he got, but we only know the larger plot, not the intricate details like Prince Duan getting a loyal minister exiled. Whether he was originally good is in question. Why did he flirt with both girls and bury Yu Wanyin with the emperor? OG YWY’s only crime was being in love with him. That’s one of the themes of the story, just because a character is ML doesn’t mean they are perfect, but just because a character is a villain doesn’t mean they can’t do good. Not to excuse any of the ML or SML’s actions, but this is so that we can look at them as fully realized people rather than 2D character. When XHB met the new XHD, his story gets more dimension because he adapts to the changes of the story, being the ML. You can think of him like Chu Guihong in ADWAD
what i have read from ppl's comments. he was sexually assaulted by the crown princess at that time before he became…
The Empress Dowager makes the consorts and concubines drink contraceptives so they can’t bear children. Therefore because there is no other child, XHD’s child forced on him by the ED was made crown prince
1. I'm glad I read the synopsis after watching up to 10 episodes cuz why's there's such a big spoiler??2. can…
MAJOR SPOILERS
There is no childhood trope in the strict sense. After they live their lives together in the fictional world, when ML dies he goes back to the real world where he was in middle school again. Then he grows up and becomes a CEO using advice that Wanyin gave him. He becomes the CEO of the company she works in and that’s how they find each other again
so in my understanding...xiahou dan transmigrated when he was a kid...and planted the sos flowersbut when he met…
Your understanding is correct. He lied because if she knows he’s really a tyrant and really does bad things, not just acting, she won’t trust him anymore.
The little boy is his son, they used the same actor for XHD and his son
He lied because he doesn’t actually have a career back in the real world, saying he’s an actor is easier so he can just explain away his actions as acting.
In the novel it was said, that Prince Duan believes his mother was killed by Dan's mother. No proof or anything,…
SPOILERS
Question as a donghua watcher, the Empress Dowager that killed Dan and Bo’s mother was killed by the current Empress Dowager right? I was rewatching the donghua to refresh my memory. It is also said that the current ED is his stepmother. Dan’s grandmother poisoned the current ED to prevent her having a child but the current ED and former emperor (Dan’s dad) poisoned his grandmother to take power from her. Am I right?
Is this drama following the novel story or it is different?And without spoiling too much can someone tell in the…
I didn’t read the novel but I watched the donghua and they are adapting it faithfully, at least visually. Other novel readers say it doesn’t deviate a lot. And yes, without spoiling too much, in the real world the leads are around the same age :)
And yes, those were his decisions which he made so that neither faction of the court kills him
