Mysterious Lotus Casebook

It is the long awaited martial art drama for me, has been following since production. The drama is based on novel of Lian Hua Lou Ji Xiang Wen (a moving caravan engraved with lotus design) and it tells the story about a hero who chose to lead a normal life after injury and his adventures in resolving mystical cases through his wisdom and skills, and he is moving around with his lotus caravan!

Love the acting of the main lead, Cheng Yi. He is playing dual role in the drama as Li Lian Hua, Li Xiang Yi, and he never disappoints me with his ability to connect with the audience through the character emotions.

Best martial art drama and the best summer drama in 2023 for me!

LianHuaLou is currently the much talked about Chinese drama. It has received very positive and favourable feedback from netizens and drama followers since the first few days of broadcasting. The leading character, Chengyi played 2 distinctive roles - Li Xiangyi & Li Lianhua - proved his multifaceted acting power. The storyline is propulsive and not only mind-boggling but offering audience lots of thrills in solving the mysteries together. Chengyi's play as Li Xiangyi and Li Lianhua are especially highly commendable; so lively and vividly portrayed that it is as if the novel character is walking out of the book and turning up in the TV! One of the famous scenes is the Red Silk Swordplay by Li Xiangyi on the rooftop in Episode 9 which is incredibly awesome that you would regret for missing it.

Most martial arts always talk about how a person with extraordinary talent/kindness grows into a generation of heroes. However, "Lotus casebook" is quite the opposite. It tells how a person who once stood at the top, suffered drastic changes, sliding from the summit to be an ordinary person, and even lost everything. A story about how to let it go, how to live a real life. Li Lianhua's reconciliation with the world and with himself is the most touching part of the this story.

Lilianhua's martial arts moves are gorgeous and flexible, rich in imagination, it is a great visual feast.

Li lianhua's change represents a person's true maturity and understanding. Li lianhua understands the world, that he is only a participant after all, not the master; he understands how to examine the success and failure of the life, the princely hegemony, from the perspective of an ordinary person; He understood that, people have to accept that no matter how dazzling we were, we are just an ordinary one among all living beings.

I would say this is the best action drama this year.

The plot is attractive, and the rhythm arrangement is perfect too. Please watch it and I can assure you that you will love it.

I personally adore how Cheng Yi portrays the character of Li Xiang Yi and Li Lian Hua. You can really tell the difference between the two. The two are distinctly different from one another. From Li Xiang Yi, who once held the title of first in the world, to Li Lian Hua, who was betrayed, injured, and went through his own difficulties before finding atonement and finally letting go.

When watching the drama, you will only think that he is Li Lian Hua, there is no indication of acting. A good actor who can elicit empathy is uncommon Worth watching!

Cheng Yi's roles of Li Lianhua and Li Xiangyi in this play are amazing. Li Xiangyi is a young and promising man, endowed with chivalry in the Jianghu and the best martial arts in the world. Li Xiangyi, who dares to love and hate, is the Bai Yueguang of many people. But he became Li Lianhua after being poisoned by a plot against him. It took Li Lianhua ten years to finally put aside the grievances of the rivers and lakes before, and only wanted to live the rest of her life in a chic way. He doesn't want to pay attention to the past, and the morality of the rivers and lakes will always be in his heart and set foot on his own road. This drama tells us that we have experienced hardships and ups and downs in life, so we should learn to rest assured and find our own inner chivalry.
