Another name for the series could be the cat’ty concubines. Seriously. The entire series is made up of a man the marquis (played by Wallace Chung) who has a lot of concubines that try to outdo one another in all different sinister ways. It also has a. hateful terrible mother who was the one who picked the concubines in the first place who who apparently we are supposed to sympathize with?. For me it takes a handful episodes to get into, but then it becomes fun and enjoyable where you root for the good side watching everything unfold. Yes it might be predictable and cliche but it’s entertaining as heck. Unfortunately it doesn’t last long and towards the last ten episodes it falls of the rails again and becomes meh. Still would recommend it though for a watch just keep the fast forward button handy.
Grandma Ye is another woman I loved in episode 1 all the way to the end. A woman who made a name for herself in battle then kind of inevitably lost her individuality after marriage made her a matriarch. We first see her and she mentions never holding a sword after that day and the last scene we have is her returning to her full glory to protect her family and I for one LOVE that for her

Oh I see! So what the donghua did is they gave him new name "Wu Rendi" to show that he lived long enough but his old name is "Wu Mian". Ok that's nice addition! Rendi sounds stylish as well. Looks like my immortal theory is canon lol
In the novel, his name is Wu Mian but in the donghua, his official name is Wu Rendi.
