    I dont think I have been so crazy about a show to this extent for a long time...the last time was bubujinxin that got me all excited...i blame Yuwen Yong...

    right tidbits that i picked up while googling the show...the infor is all just darn messy...there's various commentaries on the internet novel, the book and tv adaption. some of the links were just porn! while some of the links to the novels are different stories...

    (1)
    charbydis mentioned that the title should be “蘭陵皇妃" not “蘭陵王妃" in her previous post. it would appear that charbydis is right. there seems to be 2 novels floating around the internet with those 2 titles written by 2 different authors. “蘭陵皇妃" is written by 杨千紫 which this drama series is based on. if anyone can read chinese, here's the link
    to her internet novel.

    from what i read on forums, the “蘭陵皇妃" written by 杨千紫 underwent a revision for the tv drama production and this was produced in book form with a change of title to '蘭陵王妃' and apparently, there is a supplement to the ending of the internet novel...

    (2) screenplay for the drama is done by the same screenwriter as "I have a date with a vampire"

    (3) wardrobe and set is done by the same person who did zhen huan!

    Hey! I got back home yesterday and am up to date at ep 12. I was ROFL when the thingies came out of the cupboard. Peng Guanying did a great job with his facial expressions and body language without overdoing it. The trailers for next week gets me so excited. Looks like Yuwen Yong is finally showing his jealous side.

    Regarding the ending:
    click to show/hide spoilers
    I haven't read anything myself but I heard that there were two versions of the ending released. The original ending was when Qingsuo died after Lanling Wang left and she realised that the one she loved there and then was actually Yuwen Yong. But then the author revised the ending in a second edition where Qingsuo was saved by Zhou spies sent by Yuwen Yong, and she died in Yuwen Yong's arms after some happy days together. Apparently the author did set out the write the story about Lanling Wang, she grew to like the character she created in Yuwen Yong so revised the ending in the second edition.

    So regarding the title and possible relation to the ending:
    click to show/hide spoilers
    Whether the title is 蘭陵王妃 or 蘭陵皇妃, it does not matter since it may be referring to a title and not the actually person. My thoughts are that Duanmu Lian/Yuan Qing Suo's main motivation to find the magic pearl and get the magical objects was to finish her family's legacy and then she would be worthy to be the Princess of Lanling. But at the end, she not only did not get what she wanted, she also realised that she no longer really wanted the title anymore as she fell in love with Yuwen Yong.

    yay!! you are back! I was kinda getting worried that I seemed to be talking to myself on this discussion forum!

    yes...i understand there's that revised ending version floating around the internet which I much prefer cos there's closure for everyone involved!

    my dream ending
    click to show/hide spoilers

    following on from your revised ending. I hope Yuwen Yong decides to conquer Qi as a means of 'revenge' for Qingshuo. when he meets Lanlingwang, he informs him of how Qingshuo died. Lan Ling Wang commits suicide (by drinking poison wine) after going through the wedding rites with Luo Yun.

    there had better not be a scene where we see Qingshuo waiting for Lanlingwang in her wedding clothes in the after live!


    I have been looking at the music videos and there's some interesting scenes i cannot wait for!

    click to show/hide spoilers

    qingshuo dancing with a mask on and attempting to assassinate someone. yuwen yong DANCING with her. yuwen yong holding on to Qingshuo at the cliff. that bed scene! Qingshuo on the bed stabbed with a knife and Luo Yun looking at her hands.


    regarding the actors/ actresses...this is the first time i have encountered them. but apparently Peng Guan Ying is characterized as 'Shi li' actor. which show was he in previously to get called that? what about the lead actress? it seems she's been acting for a long time too!

    I'm obsessed with this show. It's not Nirvana in Fire but it is so addicting. I am really loving the relationship progression of YWY and SQ. They are adorable. LLW and SQ has this gorgeous first love story. Everything about this show from the costuming to the cinematography is gorgeous. I don't know why Hunan took forever to release this series.

    The actors are relatively young and are doing a great job. No one is awkward and the chemistry is flying off the charts for the 3 leads.

    Too bad no one is subbing it but thank goodness there are Vietnamese subs and voice overs on YouTube.

    I just finished ep 13! Looks like Yuwen Yong and Qingsuo are getting more comfortable with touching each other.

    Yay! 4 eps per week! Woohoo!

    Some notes about about Ep 13:
    - Peter Ho looks bad with flowing hair.
    - The height difference between Peng Guanying and Zhang Hanyun keeps changing in different scenes. Standing of the ground, the top of Zhang Hanyun's head should just reach Peng Guanying's shoulder. But at times, the top of her head reaches his ear for her to rest her head on his shoulder so I guess she must be standing on blocks for those scenes.

    Unfortunately according to history, Lan Ling Wang did not live to see Zhou conquer Qi. He was forced to drink poison by his evil cousin (gosh, everyone seems to have evil cousins in this series) and after he died, then the morale of the Qi armies went downhill. Fueled by the Qi Emperor's attitude, Zhou was able to overwhelm Qi and annihilate the whole kingdom. And then Yuwen Yong died shortly after that, and then Zhou fell as well. I would rather Yuwen Yong meet Qingsuo in the afterlife, but there is a scene of Qingsuo dressed in red waiting for Lan Ling Wang under some red trees.

    I have known about the three lead for a while, but have never really seen them act until this series.

    I know that Andy Chen is a Taiwanese singer. I know that he is due to appear in a few ancient series but I have not watched them before.

    Zhang Hanyun started out as a singer when she was a teenager and then starred in a teen movie financed by Andy Lau, and then there was nothing for a few years. I then saw her again in "Up Idol" reality show where she sees to get on very very well with Zanilia Zhao and I heard that she was out of job for a few years due to problems with her management company. "Princess of Lan Ling King" is her first big break after the hiatus, which is also her first lead role in a series which she also gives out her first ancient onscreen kiss. She also has a part in "Xiao Shiyi Lang" (was filmed after "Princess of LLK", but was broadcasted earlier) which has given her good reviews, but I didn't like the series and didn't get past the first few episodes.

    Peng Guan Ying I know of because I looked him up after I saw his poster for "Tribes and Empires" sometime earlier this year. So if you like him as Yuwen Yong, tune to watch him in "Tribes and Empires" in which he has a supporting role, but this is a grand production. He was in "Naked Wedding" but I didn't really watch that series and did not notice him.

    Anyhow I am glad to have refreshing faces in a large production. I am enjoying the chemistry between them three at this point.

    For Yong-Suo fans, seems like Peng Guan Ying and Zhang Hanyun have worked together in a modern series before "Princess of Lan Ling King" but did not act as a couple.
    click to show/hide spoilers
    And initially, Peng Guan Ying was not the first choice to play Yuwen Yong. Jing Bo Ran was the first to be casted but then resigned from the role for some unknown reason. So fellow fans, we were very close to have missed out this wonderful onscreen couple.

    I don't think it was Hunan Mango who warehoused this series, but rather the series took a while to pass China's SARFT Broadcasting Board. The series was filmed in 2013, but if you look at the opening themevideo, the approval was in 2015. I am guessing probably the board didn't like how some of the plot did not mesh with historical facts and the production crew had to chop and edit it in order to get the licence to broadcast. I just hoped they edited it properly so that it makes sense and we do not have another TJOF incident which was very traumatising to the audience.

    Do you know what they are talking about in the trailer? I don't understand Chinese.

    Is there an English translation of the novel or a summary of it?

    let me try with my pathetic chinese language skills...loosely translated
    click to show/hide spoilers

    scene in carriage
    something about the qi general doing his darnest to make sure the (peace) treaty between qi and zhou will go through because that qi general feels like he 'owes' Yuwen yong alot. Yuwen yong asks qingshuo dont you think so but she doesnt understand what he is getting at. when he hugs her he asks when will you stop people from worrying about you and she's responding 3 days, leaving in 3 days

    --> i think this scene speaks alot about yuwen yong's intelligence...he knows why the qi general is doing and knows that qingshou will be leaving him soon.

    eating scene
    qingshuo eats and discovers the pearl. yuwen yong tells her thats the pearl she's been looking for and that she can leave with it and now is the best time to leave.

    --> totally reminds me of a proposal scene! haha...

    bed scene
    qingshuo crying that she doesnt want the pearl and only wants yuwen yong to get better. yong says but its the pearl you really want, qingshuo repeats that she doesnt want the pearl and only wants him to get better. yong replies that whatever you want, i will give it to you. as long as you are happy, i will die without regrets

    --> not the kind i am looking for but hey at least they are warming up to it! and that conversation basically means yong is declaring himself!




    i dont know of any english translations of the novel. try googling. alternatively feel free to ask for spoilers but my spoilers are on the internet novel. i understand she did revisions for the tv drama and thats only available in book form.

    董貞 - 彼岸 [電視劇《蘭陵王妃》主題曲] Princess of Lanling King OST: Dong Zhen - The Other Side



    彼岸 - 董貞
    (電視劇《蘭陵王妃》主題曲)
    演唱:董貞

    天空藍色的雨
    冷冷落在心裡
    夢中的身影
    凍結回憶
    默默的守候
    只為你

    盛開在懸崖的花
    溫熱今生的牽掛
    歲月中的你
    相識的臉頰
    我卻錯過你年華

    彼岸花的淚在心上不斷敲打
    錯過的我們又白了發
    你離去背影徒留孤獨的天下
    夢一場愛恨描成殤
    模糊了初見時的模樣

    彼岸花的淚是我在盡頭等候
    你的輪廓觸痛了哀傷
    可惜交錯的目光望斷了天涯
    喚醒了夢裡的時光

    這一世讓思念勿相忘
    這一世讓思念勿相忘

    The title actually has a double meaning in where it refers to the Spider Lily (Bi An Hua), which according to legend is the flower of Hell and carries a meaning of death or eternal separation. I can't remember the specifics but it goes along the lines of how the petals and leaves bloom at different times, fated to be of one body but destined never to ever meet. So i am pretty sure that Yuan Qing Suo will die.

    Rumours are that Lan Ling Wang will now head out to Zhou to collect Qing Suo and have lots of happy times in Qi. And then Yuwen Yong will not appear again until Lan Ling Wang's crazy mum sets her up to be killed.

    There will be lots of angst and heartbreaks to come.
    click to show/hide spoilers
    Someone showed me scenes of Yuwen Yong getting stabbed by Yuwen Hu who was holding Yuan Qing Suo hostage and then thinking he was going to die, Yuan Qing Suo was trying to stab herself to be with him.


    After watching the long trailer and then ep 14 again and also from visiting the fan forums, a scene is missing from after Yuwen Yong and Qing Suo climbs out from the pool. The production team have confirmed it on Weibo, claiming that the scene was filmed on two different days but someone forgot to spray the leads with water. So the last bit of the scene where Yuwen Yong scoops up Qing Suo in his arms and meets Yan Wan was cut in order to make it flow. Which is why in the next scene, Yan Wan makes a comment about Qing Suo learning to swim on a cold day, because that was probably the story Yuwen Yong had come up with.

    It is sad but nice to know that the production team does not back down from taking responsibility for the cut scene and is truthful to the fans.
