A Marvelous Fate of Heaven and Earth: Brocade Robes Like a Dream

Since we’ve pledged our lives to each other as husband and wife, our love should know no doubt. Amid the eager anticipation and heartfelt calls of countless fans, this long‑forgotten legendary tale is slowly making its way toward us—truly, it has taken ages to finally emerge! Are you all already bursting with excitement? Don’t rush—let me take you through it step by step.

The costumes and the entire post-production process for “Under the Power” were entirely handled by the Zhu brothers. Produced by Yini Media and Huaren Century, this historical romance‑mystery series was directed by Yin Tao and stars Ren Jialun, Tan Songyun, Han Dong, and Ye Qing in the leading roles.

This series premiered simultaneously on Mango TV and iQIYI on December 28, with two new episodes released every Saturday through Monday at 8:00 PM. Members can enjoy six additional episodes throughout the run.

“Under the Power of the Imperial Robe” is adapted from the novel of the same name by Lan Se Shi. Set in the waning years of the Jiajing era of the Ming Dynasty, when treacherous officials held sway, the story follows Yuan Jinxia, a gifted female detective of the Six‑Gate Bureau, and Lu Yi, a ruthless member of the Embroidered‑Uniform Guard. The two cross paths by chance, forging a sweet yet bittersweet rivalry—only to find themselves unwittingly drawn into a web of intricate conspiracies.

Between the brows and eyes—A lifetime of longing

She

It has a strong, down-to-earth, and distinctly folksy vibe.

A petty constable who knows how to flatter.

He

He is Lu “the King of Hell”—cold and ruthless, never cracking a smile, and never showing the slightest tenderness toward girls.

Majestic grandeur and understated elegance coexist.

As the saying goes, only through steady accumulation can one achieve a brilliant burst of brilliance—and “Under the Power of the Emperor” is a perfect example. Only after the passage of time does it mature, much like an aged spirit, its fragrance growing richer and more profound. Notably, the series’ costumes and post-production were entirely handled by the Zhu brothers. Now, let our editor take you on a tour of the show’s dazzling, opulent attire!

Clothes make the man, and a saddle makes the horse. A stylish, well‑crafted outfit can add even more charm to a character. All the costumes in this series were supplied and crafted by the Zhu Brothers. To bring the show’s artistic vision to life, their costume designers meticulously oversaw every step—right from selecting the finest fabrics to painstakingly crafting each detail, stitch by stitch, with meticulous care. From the initial design sketches through fabric selection to the finished pieces, they achieved a remarkable leap in quality. Now, let’s take a quick look!

Beyond costume design, the Zhu brothers were also fortunate to take part in every stage of the series’ post-production. To bring the work to audiences as quickly as possible, team members across all departments poured their heart and soul into their craft—meticulously refining everything from audio and video to subtitles, color grading, and packaging, right through to the final broadcast. Every detail was painstakingly polished and refined, ensuring that the finished product would deliver an even higher‑quality, more polished experience.

Finally, we’ve prepared a special “Cat-and-Mouse Game”–style teaser for you—get a taste of the sweet, heartwarming romance between “Lord Lu” and “Young Master Yuan”!

Listen! That’s the sound of a heart skipping a beat! On the evening of December 28, we’ll be joining you for this visual feast—don’t miss it!
