Wang Yu

iQiyi

The year is 907 CE and the Later Liang dynasty has just taken control of what is now Northern China.

A general’s daughter named Yuan Qing Li (Chen Yu Qi) is traveling to a quiet nunnery to meditate in peace. However, a gang of bandits attacks her party, abducting her and leaving her unconscious.

She is rescued by benevolent forces, but wakes up days later, without any memories about the person she used to be, living a life that she does not believe to be her own.

She also discovers that she is due to marry – something she does not want to do.

She decides to run away and go undercover, disguising herself as a man. 

The martial arts skills she learned when she was younger soon come in handy, and she rises to the rank of county constable.

Meanwhile, the Duke of the Liang, Jing Ci (Alan Yu), has also gone undercover as a lowly Liang official in a bid to expose a fiendish conspiracy that threatens to take down the government.

The duo teams up in a bid to put an end to the corruption – and help Yuan Qing Li discover her true identity.

“The Love Lasts Two Minds” is a 2020 Chinese period drama directed by Yu Cui Hua and Liu Zhen Ming.

The Love Lasts Two Minds

In Ancient China, a young woman (Zhang Xue Ying) wakes with amnesia up after being captured by armed assassins and is told that she is Rong Le, the younger sister of the Emperor of the Western Qi Kingdom. She tries to remember if this is really her true identity, or if she has been tricked. But she is soon told that she must marry Zong Zheng Wu You (Aarif Rahman), a prince of the neighboring kingdom of Northern Lin. If she is successful, the marriage will allow the two kingdoms to forge a powerful alliance.

However, this plan is beset with problems. The woman is certain that there are untold secrets to discover about her true identity, while Zong Zheng Wu You turns out to be intelligent, but extremely sure of himself. He is also tormented by past tragedy and claims to have no interest in romance. The marriage plans fall through, but rather than returning to the Western Qi court, the woman takes up a fake name and ostensibly settles down to open a tea house. However, she is secretly searching for clues that will help her discover who she really is, and unearth evidence about her family. Things get very complicated when Zong Zheng Wu You visits and takes a shine to her – unaware that she is actually the “princess” whose hand in marriage he once turned down…

This drama was based on a novel by the author Mo Yan Shang.
