#809 Princess Pearl II - Final



Chinese: 還珠格格
English: Princess Pearl II
Genre: Drama/Comedy
Episodes: 48
Country: China
Year: 1999

After so many years I finally watched it!
The story is a little bit on the long side but it's really worth watching.
Love the part when they were away from the 'paradise'
Its just more exciting than what happened in the 'paradise'
The stories in the 'paradise' are very dragging!

Love to watch the cast again!
So I hate the 3th part that I don't gonna watch!
And if I gonna watch its only because the story of Xiao Jian & Qing Er!
It's really stupid because I think their story gonna be great!

Vicky is still the best/favo actress of me from China!
Her character Xiao Yan Zhi is still so funny!
Although it looks like more that Ruby Lin's charachter Zhi Wei is more the lead!
Her stories are more and more attractive than the stories of Xiao Yan Zhi
And she was a little bit annoying I think
I really like Fan Bing Bing's character as Jin Suo
I was very happy she got her own story!

Summary:
Our beloved fake princess returns for the second installation of the series. This time she is the fiancee of the Fifth Prince, but her life will be far worse off. The emperor's mother has returned from praying in the temples and she is appalled by all the changes that the emperor has made; it was bad enough that he adopted a daughter from the commoners but also found wives for the Fifth prince and Er Kang, who she wanted to marry his maid Qing Er to. To top it all off, Xiao Yan Zi's nonsense and no sense of palace rules has driven the Grand Empress over the edge. She is determined to drive the two girls out of the Palace. At this time, the beautiful daughter of a bordering nation - Han Xiang was "given" to the emperor as a prize so that the two nations will stop fighting. Han Xiang has a specialty that she gives off a sweet odor naturally. The emperor falls head over heels for her but unfortunately, Han Xiang already has a lover, Meng Dan, who is determined to get her back. Meng Dan fortuitously meet Xiao Yan Zi and the gang and for the love for sword fights they became close friends. Xiao Yan Zi decides to help them and sneak Han Xiang out of the palace. For this crime the emperor could take no more so he orders for the death of Xiao Yan Zi and Zi Wei. Wu A Ge, Er Kang and the gang sacrifice their positions and lives to save the two princesses and run for their lives. On their journey they are being helped by Xiao Jian, who are helping them for no reason but seems to not like the emperor very much... and what is with his special treatment for Xiao Yan Zi? The Empress, who still hates them used this chance to order secret assassins to kill the whole crew... Will they survive and be returned to their original positions?

Memorable Scene:
- When Zhi Wei was hurt and got the fever. It was almost her dead, but thanks to Han Xiang she got a 'second' life
- Han Xiang died after a poison drank. But suddenly she woke up again. These 2 scenes were one of the best touching moments
- Liu Qing telling Liu Hong that she loves Jin Suo and want to stay @ her side till her injuried ankle is better. Jin Suo was 'fake' sleeping so she hear the whole conversation
- Liu Qing want to tell Jin Suo that he loves her. But he was to shy to ask. After a couple of failed attempts Liu Hong told Jin Suo that her brother love her and want to be with her forever
- Han Xiang's body delivers a fragrance that attracts butterflies. Xiao Yan Zhi wants to try it too with flowers medley. But her flowers medley isn't attracts butterflies but bees. LOL
- Although They don't know eachother in real life. Their first meeting was strong. And that was the only scene of Xiao Jian & Qing Er together.
- Xiao Yan Zhi, Zhi Wei, Yong Qi & Er Kang finally going married. But they deliver the bride in the wrong room LOL
- Jin Suo & Liu Qing's wedding
- Han Xiang & Meng Dan's wedding. After so many many many years the time has come!
