For some odd cause, I picked up this drama Royal Feast <尚食> starring Wu Jinyan and Xu Kai, that aired in 2022. The drama is just not so nice as it’s a little gradual with what the politics and plenty of aspect tales. However I particularly appreciated watching the chemistry between Wu Jinyan because the younger girl Yao Zijin who entered the palace to turn into a cook dinner within the meals bureau division, serving the royal household, and Xu Kai because the grand-prince Zhu Zhanji.
The story truly spans throughout three emperors from the Ming Dynasty the place Zhu Zhanji finally grew to become the emperor. Apart from that, what’s a palace story with out secrets and techniques, Yao Zijin has a mysterious background as a result of not solely can she cook dinner, she will be able to learn, write, draw, play an instrument and that exhibits alot of her upbringing when within the outdated days, ladies don’t have an opportunity to study all that except you’re born in a household with cash and energy. In any case, the again story is just not too unhealthy and we see our leads get to know one another, fall in love, deny the attraction after which she was decreed by Zhanji’s father to be Zhanji’s concubine. The story goes additional past their love as they combat the daddy’s brothers who desires the throne for themselves and likewise pure disasters that occurred throughout that interval.
Total, I appreciated Wu Jinyan’s performing, she’s most likely the rationale why I attempted to look at it and it doesn’t damage once I’ve at all times watched Xu Kai’s exhibits, although the final two I watched was he in “She and her Excellent Husband” (oh, additionally aired in 2022) and As Lovely As You (in 2024).
