Has anybody managed to catch the first few episodes of Legend of Xiao Chuo? Tiffany Tang Yan’s comeback to the small screens following the birth of her daughter finally made it on the air last November 3. However, contrary to what you’d expect for her showbiz return, plus the added pull of Shawn Dou and Charmaine Sheh’s names on the roster, the reception to the show has been unexpectedly lukewarm thus far. For its first few episodes, the drama has garnered a low Douban rating of 4.9 and it seems viewers have had more bad things to say about it than praise.
Douban ratings are of course not infallible. But in the drama’s case, Chinese viewers have been complaining about the acting not being good, most especially Tang Yan’s who some say hasn’t changed since she started in the industry. It appears others have also found it weird for a 37 year old woman to be playing a young girl. Meanwhile, plot too has also received critique for being quite unrealistic.
I haven’t gotten around to watching this drama yet so I’m wondering what everyone’s impressions are? It’s really too early to forecast whether the show will become a success or a flop so I guess we’ll just have to wait and see if this is one of those dramas that kicks off with a slow start but begins to ramp up in excitement as the tale progresses further.

Tang Yan and Shawn Duo has zero chemistry. It’s like watching sibling getting along. There’s more chemistry between Charmaine and Shawn!
There’s no denying than Tang Yan is beautiful and lovely to look at but seriously I am very disappointed in her acting. I have seen little to no improvement and for such a high-quality production such as this – it’s an absolute waste. All the supporting cast are amazing and unfortunately, it only serves to highlight how mediocre she is. Overall I’ll give her 3/10.
I’m afraid the main lead is boring and annoying. Sadly, the criticism is not completely unfounded.
A notable mention is Charmaine. I will admit Charmaine is EXCELLENT in this drama. I actually didn’t think she was that good in Story of Yanxi Palace and I didn’t understand what people were raving on about. But here, with her every expression, word and body language – she simply imbues a Khitan Princess. I really enjoyed watching her and especially her interactions with Yelu Yanchege. Overall 9/10.
My favourite is the design of the costumes and cinematography – both are absolutely breathtaking! The storyline and plot though…is meh. So unbelievable and worth fast-forwarding.

Apologies for the duplication
Yooi
I quitted at ep 3. Nothing new and special. Agree, tang yan as a teenager, lmao… They should use a younger actress and actor for the leads’ young characters.
Not only chemistry, the acting, plot everything looked boring.
No wonder it got low rating .
lil
If the chemistry didn’t work the first time, I don’t understand why the 2nd time?
hohliu
This drama is really not doing anything for me….
Angie
Compare this to something as boring as The Story of Minglan that has great rating, this drama is a thousand miles better. It’s still a very bad drama but just saying when compare it to that other boring drama, it’s a whole lot better. It’s too bad Tang Yan ain’t like somebody with water army, she got no hype. If her dramas are bad then people will honestly say they’re bad. Nobody will pretend like this boring thing is the best thing ever.
GoldenAngelFeather
The Story of Minglan is a different type of drama, that drama is pretty interesting but very slow paced, is more of a slife of life kind of drama too while this was marketed as a more action filled kind of drama
Angie
Nah they’re close enough. Costume drama, high quality, highly budgeted, family oriented, it’s about the nation or kings and queens… The plots are different but still similar enough, they’re not any less interesting away from one another. Slow does not mean slice of life. This show is already so slow, then it must be another slice of life too? If it’s not slow enough and only needs to be slower than it is, so it will be considered a slice of life, highly doubt anyone will respectfully excuse the extra slowness for the sake that it’s a slice of life. Noone can even bear the standardize slowness, extra slow would not change the genre or plot. It is only Tang Yan we’re talking about, it’s nobody special. Even if this drama is fast or extra slow, it’s still just her and makes no difference.

Hey stranger do not bite on this comment, Story of Minglan is absolutly great! some people are always earger to give negative comment without restraint.
Concernng Legend of Xiao Chuo , great scenery and good production are not enough to make a hit but if you like this kind of drama wy not giving it a chance.
Trinity
Opinions are opinions. I loved Story of Ming Lan. It took me awhile to get into it but once I did I fell in love with it. It definitely is slow in the beginning but that’s because of the style of drama. I seriously doubt people pretended it was good. Just because they have a difference of opinion from you doesn’t mean anyone is faking it. It’s fine that you don’t like Ming Lan but don’t try and pretend only your opinion is right by saying everyone simply pretended it was good.
Chinese_Fluff
Watchu mean? Story of Minglan is so good. We weren’t fed cannon fodder characters that are 2-D. The characters are crafted beautifully with a story and we get a lot of backstory so it gets you invested in the characters. Also, family dynamics are realistic. I mean there’s the cliche plot of wife killing wife, but none of the dumping water and humiliating your own sister shit (we’ll kind of). ? But if you haven’t seen story of ming lab u should! Strong women in Chinese drama don’t always need to = know how to fight. Minglan slay in this story. If you’re watching for a romantic love story, this may not be for you. But if you’re watching for a slice-of-life drama that portrays realistic Chinese expectations back in the day then this is for you.
Angie
Can the Ming Lan watchers say anything new? All those repetitive great words about Ming Lan, they only apply to any other dramas.
Strong women don’t always need to fight, but they will need supernatural abilities. Like Ming Lan’s unrealistic dart skills and horse polo skills? If anybody can immediately turn experts just because some experts taught them, everybody in this world would be experts already.
To have such abilities, do you know how many hours a person must invest in? It’s all about practicing. It’s not like Michael Jordan teaches me his entire skills and techniques then I will turn into him without practicing. If a girl does not practice day and night all her life, I’m sure when a guy pushes her off a horse she would fall down. Tang Yan plays a tomboy who grew up with martial arts so she fights, and can beat big men. That makes sense to me. But I don’t know where Ming Lan’s abilities came from, she plays a reserved girl who only practice sports once in a while, not days and nights to be a championship like how the writer magically granted her to be.
I watched Ming Lan already, it is the least realistic of all dramas I ever seen. It isn’t a slice of life either. It’s just another regular, tropey drama with Zhao liying in it, I get it. The only difference is it is slower than anything else ever created before. If realistic means, your soon to be husband saves you every time you’re in trouble, no matter where you are in the middle of nowhere in this big wide world, then I guess we all live in a very tropey world.
I don’t think Tang Yan’s drama is full of characters that are 2-D, they have backstories too, and her chemistry is also a so call slow burn that nobody can see it because this is only Tang yan we’re looking at.
Max
You can’t comment anything here without complaining about Ming Lan and/or Zhao Li Ying. It’s pathetic.
sombreslunes
If you do not like something write “I do not like It” You do not need to bash.
Every dramas are people work, with different ressults we can agree an this,
Angie
I see. Only Ming Lan can be good even though it’s slow burn, boring, slow pace, no chemistry, tropey. Every other dramas with those things are bad. It’s alright if I say The Legend of Xiao Chuo is stupid, but just don’t use it on Ming Lan. Thanks for letting me understand now.
unicorn
I don’t think we need to spend any more time and energy to talk to an irrational Tang Yan die-hard fan. I don’t know why specifically MingLan is brought into this conversation, even to the point of writing an essay on their fictional drama characters. You are probably a ZLY hater. Anyway, I am not a fan of either ladies. I only continue with dramas that can sustain my interest. And I have watched MingLan twice. I have watched the 1st 3 episodes of Xiao Chuo, and it’s already on my list to drop if it doesn’t develop better in the next 3 episodes.
Angie
I’m not what you say. I did not say this drama is great or anything. I’m saying it’s bad, but not as bad to the point like Ming Lan which I bring it up because it got super high rating when it’s more terrible. I just want to say why so many dramas need to be trashed only because the actresses don’t have enough water army? First 10 episodes of Ming Lan are terribly boring, nothing happened at all. I admit this drama is very boring but the first 3 episodes had a million boring things happened. It’s got to be a ZLY unicorn to be willing to bear Ming Lan twice but not a boring drama like Legend of Xiao Chuo once. Doesn’t make any sense.
Angie
If I am a Tang Yan die hard fan I would say Legend of Xiao Chuo is the best drama ever in the entire world. I don’t say those stuff. I already say, it’s bad. I say, the truth. I say, it is what it is. I admit I’m her fan, and not a die hard one. I’m honest about her. The water army is afraid of admitting they’re fans of somebody though, they have to hide their identity to protect the actress? They trashed other people’s dramas, but say that the drama with their actress in it is better when it’s actually more terrible. But no, they do those unfair stuff but doesn’t mean they’re fans, they are just people who like terrible dramas?
Anna
I don’t think anyone is afraid to admit that they are a fan of Zhao Liying. It is you who don’t dare to admit you are a hater of Zhao Liying.
What you can do is to pm the author of this blog or jaynestars (where you usually lurk), and get them to do a hate post on Zhao Liying. There, you can feel free to complain about Minglan, water army, princess agents etc. And not post these comments under Tang Yan, Yang Mi, Zheng Shuang, Yang Zi (and a thousand other actress)’s blogs; distracting the people who want to discuss about the drama and not Zhao Liying and her works.
Helen
I liked Story of Ming Lan simply because of how much agency she had and how she led big plots without having the rely on a male character the whole way. She is strong within her own right and is bright. that is miles ahead of 99% of most other dramas out there with the old trope of simpering, dumb, clumsy FLs where the perfect man comes swooping in. The FL is the catch that could have her pick of men despite her status as a concubines daughter and the ML is flawed but fights to win her over. I loved that drama.
HL
I truly enjoyed the story of Minglan…And it is the whole cast that really made the drama well executed.
Mary
I don’t know why you need to compare Minglan to boost this drama, to me these are two completely different styles dramas. Neither was Minglan ever presented as supernaturally skilled except for one scene she tossed arrows in as a kid. Her talents were household management and human relations management which was shown to be taught by her grandmother. I admit there were trope parts to the drama story that every drama falls prey too but the strong ensemble of characters makes the tropes forgettable. Of course if you don’t like Minglan then that’s up to you, but I enjoyed it immensely and still rewatch it and I’m not Chinese or a ZhaoLiying fan army whatever.
Tanya
I watched the first 8 episodes of the drama and I personally think it’s great! The landscapes are very pretty and the story is fast moving. Tang Yan’s acting is fine and she looks as young as ever so I don’t mind her playing a young princess. Currently she and Shawn Dou are having this cute chemistry but I’m sure sh*t will hit the fan soon. Female lead character will have a lot of character growth once the angsty part of the drama starts. I can’t wait to see more!
HL
Tang Yan acting as young girl is still okay. It is Zhou Xun that acted as a young girl in Ruyi’s Royal Love in the Palace that is really out of place. I could not watch those esp….
Jjw
Hahaha!! Spot on for “Zhou Xun that acted as a young girl in Ruyi’s Royal Love in the Palace that is really out of place”. It was a huge mistake to cast Zhou Xun as Ru Yi. Zhou Xun looks like a Obaasan in the entire drama. I cannot stand it too.
As for Tang Yan, I can’t comment because I still haven’t watch The Legend of Xiao Chuo yet. But I love her costumes and she looks pretty!
King_Lover
Damzzz you guys needa chill. No one is being a hater to ZLY or TY. But for real do…TY’s acting skills hasn’t improved since she started acting. ZLY’s acting was kind of stiff in Minglan. Both got their flaws.
Angie
Thank you! That’s all I was saying too. I didn’t even compare the actresses but just the overall drama. I thought people love slow and boring drama, this drama did so well on being boring but the evaluations are so vastly different. It’s fair that I bring up why two similar things are not treated equally, only because of who’s casting in it, but doesn’t mean I’m pointing at anybody’s performance, it’s just the overall production. I point at who has water army, but I didn’t say how anyone performs.
Now about the actresses I really agree they are only at each other’s level, they always play the same type of girl. But again, the evaluations they both get are also vastly different. Repeating myself again, did not say anyone performs better than the other, they’re the same, but evaluations are not equal.
Kait
I agree with you. The character of Minglan in story of Minglan wasn’t written well it was unrealistic. ZLY’s acting there didn’t make things better it was inconsistent. Though pple say it’s bcos the character was cold and always hid her feelings, I don’t agree with that logic. But it’s ZLY all her flops are “hits” and her hits are “phenomenal”.
XZF
@Kait
I’m laughing @ “ But it’s ZLY all her flops are “hits” and her hits are “phenomenal”. It’s a very interesting comparison.
mei
I don’t think it’s that bad. Her acting is a reflection of how well the character written as well. She’s a 17 year old, young girl. Daughter of the prime minister, she’s never experienced hardship and until her marriage lived a carefree life. Is she going to be particularly well written? No, but a lot of stories about young, wealthy girls are the same. Yes, she’s smart, pretty but hasn’t experienced life to the fullest. I’m going to wait until the plot develops further to cast any real judgement.
thundergirl3
Unfortunately, and that’s my point. It wasn’t portrayed that way. It just came across as annoying. It’s as though she’s playing a character moving along with the trope. As opposed to ‘being’ a pampered princess. Seemingly it’s meant to contrast and highlight her growth later on – I get it. But execution-wise, it’s just not doing it for me. Now before anyone gets on the band-wagon of insinuating that I am an anti-fan. Whilst I do like certain actors and I have my preferences I don’t watch dramas for one particular actor/actress. That said, I may be swayed to check out a drama for the sake of an actor/actress. Just like everyone else, I can’t say no to a pretty face so I do watch dramas simply for the chemistry or sweetness of the main leads.
This production is a heavy-weight. It has some well-known names in the industry so I do expect more and I don’t think it’s unreasonable. I don’t hate the drama or leads but I am disappointed that it hasn’t delivered the expectation around the character development and even the acting department. I may change my mind later on but for the last 8-10 episodes, I haven’t been impressed.
thundergirl3
A guilty pleasure of mine is to watch dramas for the sake of pretty faces – nothing else – a great example is the Eternal Dream of Love. Goodness Dilebra and Vengao were just too beautiful for words. I watched it because I simply liked looking at them – yes admittedly all 58 episodes.
Mei
Same here, I do watch it for the chemistry between the cast. I am just going to wait until the plot thickens. This is a whole life story about Yan Yan, from girl to mother of a nation. If anything, if it is bad, I’ll probably watch the highlights from WeTV to keep myself happy.
I’m currently skipping through Promise of Chang’An cause it’s so painful to watch. I can’t say I watch a lot of dramas for the plot, I skip through a lot of dramas. But I’m not going to say anything about a 50/60 episode drama when only 8 episodes have been released. The pacing of the drama is like a lot of other Chinese dramas. I’m use to it and just don’t commit the time to the dramas anymore. Unless it’s Nirvana in Fire.
Mei
I don’t deny I had high expectations because of certain names but I have looong realised that having big names in a drama, does not equal good script or a drama that matches my taste. I just wait out the drama and try to not be too disappointed. The casts, production, script writer did the best they could. So kudos to them.
Yooi
Lol, i also couldn’t watch Minglan. I stopped at ep 2. Earlier than this one. But why comparing those two??? And it’s preference tho.
xunxine
Almost 40s actress playing naive and sweet type of character, too awkward. these type of idol drama should cast the late 90s gen actress
Charmaine Sheh has aged and it shows on-screen no matter how much filter they used
Neen
Poor Shawn! He can’t catch a break! Most of his dramas has just been very bland.
thundergirl3
@Neen. I know. It’s a shame because he’s a good actor. Not my type personally but I appreciate that he’s kind of cute and adorable. I really like his demeanour. Despite how I feel about this drama, I really like how his face always lights up whenever he sees Tang Yan. He just got this smile on his face and it’s so darn adorable.
Moon
Thinking of checking out this drama and seeing what everyone’s thoughts are. I don’t know why the thread started comparing to the Story of Ming Lan…I actually really enjoyed the drama and rewatched it a few times. It was slow but in the right way.
Anna
I really enjoy this drama, and am intrigued in the Liao Dynasty and Khitan’s history. But I can see why netizens hate it. The romantic scenes with Tang Yan and Shawn Dou are awkward and cringy. The drama should get better after Xiao Yanyan becomes Empress, and then the focus would be on the political scenes.
Romance wise, I really do enjoy Charmaine Sheh and Tan Kai’s chemistry and pairing. I agree with the commentator above that her acting truly shines here, despite the fact she is alot older than her character.
Seems like Story of Minglan has really good reviews. I couldn’t get past the first few eps cos the pace is sooooo slow.
Also, Angie really is a familiar name, mentioning Zhao Liying and her dramas in almost every post here as well as JayneStars (her username is Yoyo there). I didn’t expect anti fans to be so dedicated nowadays, watching every drama of the stars they seemingly dislike.
jo
I watch this mainly for Shawn and Meng Zi’.
Mei
The fact that no one is saying anything about grown men in their 30s acting as teenagers is also sus..
Angie No.2
Ooo Angie/HB/Yoyo changed username? I recognise you from previous drama posts.
Why don’t you type a long essay about how unfair no one is complaining because it’s Zhao Liying’s fault? 😀
Angie
I don’t know how safe it is to answer anymore since you ZLY fans are absolutely paid antis. I only said this, I will repeat again or rephrase: I only said how could 2 dramas boring the same, not have the same ratings. One drama is actually better, and that one ends up with low rating. That’s all.
Since then the fans answering me were not talking about the dramas but attacks on me personally. When I was only talked about the dramas only. I wasn’t angry about the bad ratings just because it’s a TY drama. Why the water army angry just because I say a ZLY drama sucks? See who’s acting like a dedicated water army? Just becus yall failed to prove how Ming Lan is better yall have to be so angry. I never said anything about ZLY except that she has too much water army and her acting is the same like TY. Does not mean I’m saying is all ZLY’s fault, I guess it is if supposed she pays the water army. I was only pointing at her water army. I did not say the people here are her water army either, some people choose to show themselves up and prove they are. If you can’t explain why a boring drama like Ming Lan has better rating, then just don’t bother. Why blame me personally and not admit being a water army?
Angie
I don’t know how incoherent you are, but I am not ZLY fan 😀
I just dislike you, so I will attack you personally.
Stop distracting the topic of Minglan and Xiao Chuo. I think you are the paid water army to distract everyone and talk about Xiao Chuo. How low are you? Why not go sell your body if you have the free time?
You can consider me as a Xiaochuo drama fan who hates you, bitch ^^
Angie No.3
Sorry people I am Angie No.3. I will help rephrase what my clone Angie from 1.58pm wants to say, since you know, her English is bad and is not able to express herself fully.
I only said that I am jealous and angry why Minglan and Xiao Chuo “looks” similar, not have the same ratings. One drama is actually better (in my own sucky opinion), and that one ends up with low ratings, so I am extremely angry and jealous. That’s all.
Since then the fans answering me tried to explain to me, but I will wilfully ignore them and make it seem like everyone is attacking me. I wasn’t angry about the bad ratings just because it’s a TY drama, I am angry because its not doing as well as Zly’s drama. So I will accuse those Minglan watchers as water army (repeats 100 times because I love the term water army). See whose acting like a dedicated water army? Jus becus I failed to prove how Minglan is a bad drama I have to be angry and keep repeating myself. I never said anything about ZLY except mention her name in every drama and … (repeat water army again for 100 time). It absolutely means I’m saying is all ZLY’s fault, I guess is if I am paid to be the water army. I was only accusing other people as water army cos no one agrees with me. I did not say the people here are her water army because I have no evidence and would seem like an insane woman. Some people chose to disagree with me and call me out for using several usernames, so this proves that they are. If you can’t explain why Ming Lan should fail, then just don’t bother. Why expose me for being a ZLY hater?
There there, don’t need to thank me my dear clone ^^ I will help translate more of your wonderful essays. Do comment on how I did in my first translation, awaiting your reply ?
Angie
Great translation, “I’m not a ZLY fan” and I am not a water army but I call anybody who criticize her drama a bitch, and I will alter anything they say into the most horrible words.
Angie

Mei
Who are you?! Why would I write about Zhao Liying? This isn’t her drama…
All I said there were comments about a woman nearly in her 40s playing a teenager, so what about the men playing teenagers? Talk about double standards. This is the industry double standards, commenting that women are too old to play female characters. But are there any decently written characters for their age group? No, it’s either young girls or mothers. But men have a wider range of characters to play. If you don’t understand this issue, then you are part of the problem
If you find it difficult to comprehend someone’s comment.. don’t reply

LOL I never watched minglan so I wouldn’t know. my sister did like it but that’s her type of dramas so yea lol I think Tangyan is beautiful but I don’t think I’ll watch this drama, let alone check it out, so I won’t say anything about the drama. I mean, if people are liking the cinematography and etc, that’s a plus. lol I don’t think there’s anything wrong with older women playing younger roles either, esp if they can still pass looking like a little girl (for ex. Tan Songyun) and bring justice to the role they’re playing. I’m not exactly picky on that stuff. I’m only picky if they can’t act. lol

Great translation, it’s no wonder why I only talked about the drama but it transformed into a topic of personal attacks for both the commenters and the actresses. That’s how the water army’s brain think, whoever point out any flaws about their boss’s work, the things they will only be bad things and should get alter. No wonder. Seeing you this angry, makes me laughs so if you hate me so much then I hope you don’t anger yourself to death. ?
Never said anything about ZLY, again, repeating for the thousandths time, only said she has water armies. And the water army being this angry, I must be totally correct. Got them angry to the point of calling others bitches when all I talk about is the drama and not even the people.
Angie
No worries my hate is only there to reply your comments, because I’m feeling bored.
Personal attacks are only directed at you, not the actresses.
That’s how the water army’s brain think, whoever point out the real intention of the commentators, they will get “alter” (angry?). Seeing you responding to me makes me happy, so no worry I won’t anger myself to death 😀
Of course you should continue to talk about ZLY so I can offer my great service again ;D Repeating for the thousandth time, only you are a water army 😀 And calling others a water army, seems like you are trying to further prove your identity. A bitch is a objective term to call someone like you, because it seems like you are trying to talk about the drama without actually watching one, but seemingly wanting to create a drama of your own?
Angie
Bye toxic website, too many trolls and fake accounts. From now on any Angie here will be the ZLY water army, not me ever again.

Bye bitch angie, too many distracting and hate comments from you. From now on I will anticipate your other ZLY anti hate accounts, and your return with a new username.

Same here its so ridiculous ???

I find ZLY fans the most airheaded and childish. Y’all refuse to allow any commenter make any statement that’s not “oooooh ZLY’s is such a wonderful actress…” but guess what the comment section is for people to give their opinions and CRITICISMS, so amma say what I want to. Y’all know that ZLY is an idol actress and whether you want to admit it or not you will give the highest ratings to all her dramas even if you haven’t watched it. And don’t try to deny it, you’ve all proven it with legend of fei and princess agents. For the former just by looking at the cast and trailer you know it’s going to be just another one of “those ones” but bcos ZLY is there Y’all go “oooh I’m soooo excited to see ZLY sit back and let others do her fighting scenes again”. And don’t even get me started on PA, probably the worst drama I have ever watched. So why are you all trying to put words in another person’s mouth bcos u don’t want to hear the truth.
Mei
What did I do? Lol keep me out of your arguments?
Laila
Honestly, I don’t have any problem with ZLY. I don’t think she’s the worst actress nor is she the best. I’ve watched a couple of her dramas but never finished any of them. I like her but not a fan like that. I have my own biases. I honestly never understood the hype over ZLY tho, tbh. Probs bc I missed the time when she was reaching her popularity and whatnot. All I know is that she has a big fan base. And for what exactly (aside from acting)? Not entirely sure.
