Take a look at how beautiful the HYX set is. We are in for a visual treat.

Shen Qiao has a birthday! It’s on August 8th! Everyday could be Yan Wushi’s birthday, lol!

This is so cute 🥺🥺🥺

This is canon yall✌

#how is it that making shimei a girl somehow made the story gayer? lol I love this tag because that's so true. I think making Shimei a girl makes it clearly romantic in the show and then he picks a guy over the girl so I feel like it's gayer than if they had kept Shimei a guy (and tried to show that relationship as platonic) in the show. I kind of love it but I still don't think this show will ever air.

It’s not just that Moran picks a guy over a girl (canon Moran is possibly bi anyway, or at least bisexual and gay-romantic or w/e, if we want to assign modern Western sexual orientation to a fictional Chinese period fantasy character, which I always feel a bit weird about).

It’s that NOW an evil, world-destroying woman tries to come between the pure love of two men - she literally has to enchant one (Moran) into thinking he loves her because otherwise there is no way he’d pay attention to her instead of the man he truly loves; and then she is obsessed with the other who would literally rather bang a sentient corpse of the evil alternate universe version of his male lover than be with her.

I MEAN!!!!

Like!!!

There is obviously no way anything even close to the novel would be approved by the censors. Frankly, even if they made Moran or Chu Wanning a woman and thus the main ship was het, the story would STILL be a compilation of everything the censorship office hates. (I once made a post about it but I am too lazy to dig it out.)

I assume since the makers are working within that system and are familiar with it, they presumably know how much they can push and how much they have to alter - I am not surprised that the first cut got rejected by the censors but I assume it will eventually get released. 

I almost wonder if all these leaks with various body contact scenes and TXJ dragging CWN off or the blood hourglass or whatever, are leaks on purpose because they know they will have to shred the story to bits and that way they get fandom goodwill by going “see we tried really hard, you saw the leaks, don’t hate us!”

Honestly, I have NO expectations for the drama, not really. I hope it gets released in some form, though I will settle for the trailer, because their casting is on insane point (if I was making my ideal cast, I would pick Chen Feiyu and Luo Yunxi myself) and I want to have some visuals in my head for rereads.
