All I can say to that third rate and wannabe influencer is that this drama is entirely a fictional universe so it doesn't necessarily conform to real Chinese culture and history. I fail to see the relevance of that kind of unserious and ridiculous criticism.

At episode 15 I'd have burned that entire village down. Bunch of lowlife grifters.

This is the first xianxia I've watched where the mortal timeline moves at the same speed as the immortal realm. The emperor even got to meet the heavenly emperor, the void king and the beast king haha.

An absolute waste of time.

This show is one of the rare instances where I want to kill off most characters. Except for ZZH's character and Chengleng I would kill every single one in the end. Please tell me the ones that need to die all die.

I've breezed through 18 episodes of this and I'm eagerly waiting for the next episodes. This kind of historical mystery/detective dramas are right my alley.

Just started this and I'm already fed up with the FL's antics. She is the most irritating lead character I've ever come across in xianxia land. I am already 5 episodes in and her outrageous behavior is not improving.

Give me the naivete of Jinmi, the effervescence of Xiao Lanhua or the elegance and haughty arrogance of Bai Qian all day, everyday. This FL however is a bad parody of a sidekick in a D class comedy.

I like this pairing. Honestly Ruoxi should have ended up with 14th prince instead of having a tragic affair with the guy Liu Shi Shi married in real life.

This character is a rehash of the role the FL played in Gank Your Heart, spunky and somewhat heavy handed. I did not have a good impression of her performance there. Hopefully she does have another attack on this role. Maybe try becoming a more sympathetic character.

I confused her with Crystal Yuan sometimes.

An asshole, this is perfect for Oliver Chen. He plays domineering and controlling yet sympathetic at the same time.

Love Oliver plus Ashes of Love universe interests me. It's been a long time since any xianxia drama captured my attention. I feel like they could still improve and make a better drama than the original unlike say TMOPB where the subsequent sequels could never do.

You should at least put this in a spoiler because it is one and second of all your long winding post and rant on why the ending was the greatest thing since apple pie does not sit right with me or a lot of people dissatisfied with this garbage ending. Also I don't give a damn what happen to Wang Dou's character. Your pathetic attempt at trying to blanket and sidetrack the real issue with your blatantly false reasoning is only match by the level of whitewashing in this drama. What I wanted was truth and justice to come to light because that is what the snake oil salesmen level screenwriters led me to believe from the start. I did not expect to be sold hot air and vacuous political diarrhea.

Whether it's autism or having an eccentric behavior, directors and dramas always gravitate to portraying mathematicians or scientists usually physicists this way. Why is that? Why stick with these stereotypes. I'm saying this as I also have a degree in mathematics and I don't recall having classmates and professors acting this way. Mostly normal people, a lot of arrogant and pompous people who think they are better than they are, plenty of reclusive ones like myself etc. but the Rain Man types aren't populating the math department as people like to believe.

There are 5 screenwriters in the credits. I wonder which genius thought of that train wreck ending and leaving an unsatisfactory and ending full of falsities or is that how it was written in the novel? I've read the screenwriters have taken a lot of liberties in comparison to the original material. I noticed that this drama, despite the cut scenes, was clearly and purposely written and filmed in such a way to illicit and make the audience believe of romantic relationships between the male leads.

How could they have cleared his name when the empress was also the instigator of the spying conspiracy. With another lie and cover up? It was a ridiculous ending and for all that talk of saving lives a lot of people still died in the end because her son and the true heir wanted revenge. The reason that happen is because the bootlicking ministers including the ML never confronted her during her regency and in the end they actually saved her reputation by not exposing her crimes. His dad was exonerated by another bold faced lie. It was a mockery of justice.

I don't agree with the recommendation of this being similar to A League of Nobleman. Even the garbage ending of that drama it's still miles better than this one in terms of balancing the personalities of the characters and limiting overdone acting. Everyone here irritates me. No offense but this drama feels so vulgar and poor taste. That's not an attack on the provincial and rural setting or the lack of esthetics in the drama. It is the atmosphere and having characters that have no sense of duty, elegance, propriety and decorum.

The crazy and eccentric mathematician act is so overdone . I wish they'd showcase more varied personalities when it comes to playing this role. The story is also boring as hell.

And an impostor one at that. Can you ever believe these two duo in the future imperial court talking about integrity, honesty and justice. It will be the most hypocritical conversation ever.

I knew after the flashback scene talking about vacuous and empty virtues like performing the greater good and choosing the lesser of two evils that this drama was going downhill and we'd end up with a cop out and whitewash ending.
