[candygurlQT]

chan = imperial doctor + his wife's daughter

half brothers and sisters sleeping with eachother ewww lol

[hellgirlassassin]

"Come here."...? Seriously...out of everything, they make him say "Come here."?! I prefer the "Who are you?" from the subtitles best.

Nonetheless, a great movie!

[Caleta280]

Number 2 was screwing his sister then?

[cool2t]

@Caleta280 indeed

[Alusnovalotus]

[dud2012stud]

I just realized that the 1st prince was unknowingly fooling around with his half sister then. Ughh Gross

[KyleLaney87]

@dud2012stud well if mine was that cute.........idk. but gong li is TOO SEXY!

[BlackWhiteAznPanda]

Watch this in chinese, it's freaking amazing.

[nging4x]

crown prince's lover is his sibling....wth....

[CMKify]

i think the english dubbing has come along way since the old kung fu movies. they did an excellent job matching the voices with the actors.

[Synaps4]

Ah the tragic story of prince Juan of Espanchina.

[maiii0608]

2:42 IN YOUR FACE! =D

[gronolachunks]

I like it better in chinese its way better than the english version of it... At least i thinks so

[TheCraphater]

the ninja women is so damn graceful at 0.31!!!

[cnammm]

lolol his face at 9:03

[321godson]

8 people are not much into flowers... mabe they want hugs

[SeriuxFan]

With all the Princes' training.....do they really need that much protection? I mean they can defend themselves. >:/

Oh and first wife was pretty even with the scar. 

[sugarlessxgum]

Why is the ninja making noises?

[maiii0608]

@sugarlessxgum because english dubbing is stupid! watch the chinese version, much better! Actually, Chen Jin, the ninja woman, is a great actress

[mobilemonkey625]

1 million soldiers, 2 idiots, 3 assholes, and a hundred hot chicks and kung fu=chinese movie

[black4pienus]

@mobilemonkey625 yep and it works every time!

[MrsNorris55]

Or just about any historical costume drama, LOL

[ashirockuno]

[TrillianS8]

Whoa! whoa! does that mean the prince and the doctor's daughter are brother and sister technically, please tell me I have that wrong. the story is scattered to me. I need some help with this.

[SeriuxFan]

@TrillianS8

They have the same mother so yes, they are brother and sister.

[ryanmfilms]

The King of this movie is based on the Tang Emperor Taizong if I'm not wrong. I remember reading about him in my Chinese Civilization History class. He was a very capable person as a young kid. At age 13, he's already won numerous battles and gained the admiration of a King. But he was very ruthless, and that was how most of the Ancient Chinese Emperors were. It's like the Lions of the African safari. To be a King, you have to make a name for yourself and be ruthless. Kill even your own

[belialjones]

black clothes + rainbow palace = no hiding places :(

[helenlimimmy]

@belialjones then do u means that she should wear rainbow clothes?

[afrowarrior1]

seems like the doctors daughter was having sex wit her half brother and not knowing it

[Cosmo27100]

I like the Chinese version better. It is more authentic.

[suky1912]

So 1st son fucked his step mum (a mother is a mother regardless if she is step) then he fucks his sister?????? lol

[MyPoetik]

[dennyyoung215]

[usamiakihikosan]

[TheGooseKita]

the Crown Prince Can't Really fight....seems as if he has been that greatly trained like his brother

[dennyyoung215]

that doesn't seem to make alot of sense but whatever!

[AlwayzBeenPhat7]

@TheGooseKita he really can't since he almost got tiger clawed and choked, lol...

[hopelesslyinlovedu]

I HATE dubbed movies

[Someto1]

every 1stfu and dont comment

[lavenderblossom]

I wish people would STOP commenting on the "incest" because they're not actually related >_>

[ajie0]

noooo.!! there is an incest.!! the brother and sister of the imperial palace...they thought the mother of the 1st child was dead but then was married two the royal doctor who's daughter has an intimate relationship with his brother, the prince....

[TheGooseKita]

there is incest that maid...is his 1/2 sister! lol unless people are talking aboutt he empress then its not

[lamike1982]

This is one hot mess of a family.Plotting,scheming,decei­ving,incestuous affair,killing each other for the crown.Damn.I'm glad that this is all behind us now.

[kalindoscopy]

all behind us?? what?! replace 'empire' with 'business empire' and you have most of the modern rich families doing lots of the same stuff

[lamike1982]

Yeah,I agree.But as long as there are no incestuous affairs,I'm good,lol,cause that is like the grossest thing in the world.

[kalindoscopy]

lol some people are freaks

[malevolenceXXXensues]

it seems like the emperror just could not let go of the past

[trav1971]

All that power and money and not one sane person lol

[killere2009]

@trav1971 that's because the noble society in that era. haha, if you compare modern people to ancient people, of course you gonna get confused... hahaha

[SeriuxFan]

@trav1971

Just goes to show, money can't buy you happiness.

[maven21]

@trav1971 This is the normal workings of a palace...sanity is never in the equation

[Xskillna]

@trav1971 Such is what happens when one gets said power and money.

[LadyReginaSmiles]

Why did the Emperor even bother with all of this nonsense?

Didn't wealthy men have several wives? Go mess with a concubine and leave the poor empress alone!

[shizi]

second that

[hyoboy81]

i agree!

[Thebbeast]

the thing is:

1.she seduced his favorite son!

if he left her alive and that fact was to be known by the people he would have to execute them both to maintain his power and the stability of his kingdom.

2. with his main wife still alive, it would be hard for him to make alliance through marriage since other kingdoms wont probably accept to give the heiress to their throne as a concubine only.

That's the way I see it anyway.

[maiii0608]

@Thebbeast sounds very plausible! I saw it from a less factual but more emotional side ;)

how he reacts on their meeting (weren't there even tears in his eyes?) and cause of the picture I'm sure she's the woman he loves. so i was very confused why he's trying to destroy her life so hardly.my opinion:

he's jealous& angry that she married someone else. He's far too selfish to allow that. for his career he had to marry the empress but when he can't be with mrs Jiang, no one should.

other ideas?

[AlwayzBeenPhat7]

@LadyReginaSmiles Sadly, some people do not know how to let go >:(

[killere2009]

@LadyReginaSmiles I think the emperor still had another 10 or more wives in this movie, lol

[KaiserinFrederick]

@LadyReginaSmiles Because the doctor's wife, a.k.a. his first wife, was his official wife meaning that no other women that married him could surpass her and the ex-Emperor could not have his daughter (now the Empress) as a mere second wife. Sorry, if that's a bit sketchy, it's hard to explain

[phongnguyen86]

@KaiserinFrederick OMG! You just cleared the entire movie for me, hahaha, thank you so much. I had no idea :)

[Graymoths]

@LadyReginaSmiles Maybe he suspects that she's heading a rebellion against him.

[kikiyippie]

@LadyReginaSmiles its just due to the fact of how he didn't like her at all

he didn't even want her to become the wife in the first place.

But I do wish he woulda just left her alone :(

[MiyuYoshida1]

@kikiyippie He pretty much just married her because her father was the Emperor and he just used her to get close to her father to build a good relationship so he could be the new Emperor. Men are like that even to this very day.

[maven21]

@MiyuYoshida1 before you go all male bashing just remember that this all started with the queen fucking her son for 2 YEARS...that is some illogical bullshit

[MiyuYoshida1]

@maven21 Well first off Jai isn;t her son haha he is her step son my dear.

[maven21]

@MiyuYoshida1 and that changes what? She was still messing with a member of the Royal Family and it would have been a huge scandal had the public got wind of it. There is motherly love but this is some wack shit.

[phynixchen]

@MiyuYoshida1 no dum dum jai is her birth son the crown prince, wan is her step son

[kikiyippie]

5:51 so beautiful!

[maven21]

@LadyReginaSmiles old post.... You can't just leave this alone..He is not just wealthy he is the Emperor if this got out there would have been a huge scandal. His enemies internal and external would have been all over his ass. If he did nothing it would have shown him 1. Soft and 2. Not on top of his game and able to handle personal shit. Those 2 things alone will have an enemy army at your doorstep ready to enslave your people. Its fucked and not enlightened but its good politics

[LadyReginaSmiles]

@maven21 Um, my post was 2 years old!

[Xskillna]

@LadyReginaSmiles This is China, that sort of thing is beyond bad. As Emperor of China, you sort of become a god among men, and you have to become infallible in the eyes of the people, the servants, and the soldiers... or something.

[rakka981]

Yada anatta are right.

[lal5]

Hold up, so the physician's daughter was sleeping with her brother(older prince) as her mother is his mum? Correct me if I am wrong?

[z0diak08]

yup, both have same mother, diff fathers

[pollekesol]

gross :-S

[ChhRiiSTIAN]

darn you had to be a spoiler...lol and yea youre right i finally got it til i saw da part

[Hakkenden]

in stories there's always the wicked witch or queen...but this time its a wicked king

...bastard =_=

[Ginne86]

he is a man-bitch indeed.

[stardingo747]

oh come on now it wasn't THAT funny! I'd hate to be poisoned with arab toe nail juice though....

[sugarcane91]

WHOA!!! That's his birth mother?!?! I thought that girl he fell in love with was only his half sister! So, they're FULL siblings??!!

[Ginne86]

no they're half siblings.

the girl's father is the royal physician, the crown prince's father is of course, the emperor.

[CrzyXAzn]

it's way more dramatic in mandarin

[astornium]

yeah, i was it in theater few years ago, it was kinda funny tho, i was the only non-asian dude in the entire room, nobody knew of the movie exept ppl that actually follow the movies from asia, i only saw the movie cuz some mates convinced me to come along with em, was worth it (i live in belgium btw)

[CrzyXAzn]

lol Kool, it's kinda weird dubbed in English 'cause they like directly translate it into English and we all know how that turns out with most languages most of the time. XD

[stardingo747]

8:10

"arab toe nails! this is an outrage!"

[astornium]

don't get it

[stardingo747]

you did not see the prince's facial expression at 8:10? He was shocked his mom was made to drink Arab toe nail juice!

[Leesaosei]

LMAO

[dredger14]

The second prince's life is so very crap. First he screwed his step-mother then his sister.

[animefrik111]

the crown prince you mean

[asians3nsation83]

Crown prince wasnt he the first prince? I dont know anyway yeah he was seduced by his step mother and without knowledge did his sister I cant believe they keep calling her diao chan

[LxNaw781]

ahahah he did his sister! XD wat a butt head he is.. lol

[GraphicsPat]

O Man! that is too over extreme to do his sis lol

[XDarKMogX]

now now this is 1000 years ago, they didn't have rules on who you could get jiggy with :D

[Ginne86]

yes they did. probably more strict than now.

[takemyhandd]

ahh so chan was fooling around with her half brother?

[MeeYung]

in the same time, the empress has almost the same age than the second son ...

[xobkizum]

eww incest!

[thethingkid]

Gong Li is freakin insanely pretty. Her bone structure is crazy. :) Love her

[crazygfish]

The biggest screwed up character is still the emperor!

[mzgiglz13]

OMG if she only knew it was her half bro.

[Sc0lopendra]

She knew about it in the end and gone crazy and started running out of the palace screaming hysterically!

[monyeeet23]

omg. so she was messing around with her half brother. sick.

[ThomasAngelos]

A god damn flying kick! ;)

[Birreh]

is jai or wan the older brother?

[rosindanger]

wan is older, jai second and i cant remember what the youngest is called.

[danger2uLovely]

its yu.

[kookomusician]

lol... because he dosen't matter... lol jk

its realy crazy, and sad how he get's no attention... but i guess it just normal in royalty...

[cenidee]

thanks. this dubbing better than foggy sub. strange at first then got used to it. waited months for this. enjoying it but a comment hinted the ending w/c is a spoiler, but still enjoying & the intricacy of costume etc is a joy to watch

[chicexotica]

the mom and the sister!? wow, the oldest son is pretty messed up...

[face2facechick]

Can someone help me understand? Everyone is dead at the end except for the Emperor and the Empress. Now after she didn't take the last poisonous bit, the movie was over. What is the point? She refused to die? Are we to assume the the emperor killed her? Someone help me out so I can have closure....

[janisjai]

repost: I do not believe that the Emperor would have her executed...too easy, considering all the deception and/or alliance she placed upon him. I think he would let her continue taking her poison until she killed herself. In the movie they said the black fungus would drive her to lose her mind & ultimately end in death. I believe, that this is what happened at the very end.

[janisjai]

This film also had shown how the dysfunction & chaos of this family was a complete opposite of the symbolism of the Chrysanthemums (& the Chrysanthemum Festival).

[face2facechick]

have you ever read the book or seen the fim of "The Lion in Winter" this film reminds me of this book/film. The film is starring Kate Hepburn

[janisjai]

It sounds familiar...??? I will look into it. Thanks.

[Sc0lopendra]

I guessed that the prices of the Chrysanthemum flowers and Chrysanthemum tea became very high in this movie, because so many of them were used and destroyed (at the ending) in order to make this movie... =)

[face2facechick]

Thanks for the explanation. I am watching the film over again because I believe I might have missed out on some things when I saw it the first time. I think its Lame, but I am watching it again and giving it the benefit of the doubt.

[janisjai]

I respect your opinion of the movie. If you still think it is lame after seeing it again, then I am sorry for having influenced you to waste your time. I am very easily amused by foreign cinema (& indie films, as well). Howevever, don't get me wrong, I do know an exceptional film when I see one. ;)

Thx again 4 the earlier recommendation.

[face2facechick]

You are doing us a favor by posting this so thank you! I didn't have to pay to rent this. You did me a huge favor!

[janisjai]

Well, like someone posted before (which I agree with), the english dub ruins the movie. I have to apologize for all of those who are like you & I who really enjoy foreign films in their original language. Sorry for ruining it. But for all those who do not care & still enjoy it, I still recommend seeing it with subs. ;)

[nawmmbr]

@janisjai - you did not ruin this movie. IT IS PERFECT! Thank you!

[kokomekoko]

wo...that twisted...the older son is wanting to marry his half-sister...okay that is just wrong.

[dandilionscandestroy]

....Twisted.

This is a good movie.

But then again, anything with Gong Li is amazing.

[PhoucDatBitch]

why does that old guy keep on stroking the kings back

[ValorOni]

Chan is killing the Queen cause of the B. Fungus? That so stupid of her>:(

[yashdesai]

no, the king hates the queen as she is having an affair with her step son (the eldest one) and thus trying to poison / kill her. the eldest one is no longer interested in her either and wants to marry some1 else who the queen hates though...

[blackcyborgz]

nice..ga itot na!!!

[Kunvict]

iyot*

[nubianconqueror]

so is the king trying to poison the beautiful queen to get with the branded lady? MEN!

[lhx23]

so the oldest son of the king was having a relationship with his half sister? thats wierd...

[AZoo202]

The king was a captain who married a princess to become the king. He had a son from a previous marriage who had a one time fling with the queen. The two younger sons are hers and his??

[lhx23]

yea it seems that the two younger sons are hers and his...

[xxxdanielle13xxx]

THX 4 the upload!!!!!

[transformersrock]

she looks good in every movie but I like her voice in Memoirs of a geisha
