A Tencent News report of 11 September 2026 says the drama has passed review with 34 episodes and is tentatively set for December on Hunan^[6] TV and Mango TV; a Sina^[3][5] post of 19 September says Mango brought it forward from late December to early December, and a 12 September schedule list says a fourth-quarter premiere is planned.

  美顺与长生 (Meishun and Changsheng, "Whispers of Time") is Li Lu's period family drama starring Liu Haocun (刘浩存) as a village girl married off at 16 and Huang Xuan (黄轩) as the husband whose mind stayed a child's after an injury, following them from the late 1970s to today.

Yu Shuxin's last two xianxia dramas premiered 14 months after wrapping (Love Between Fairy and Devil) and 10 months after (Love Game in Eastern Fantasy), so this uses the shorter gap: about 28 August 2027. Entertainment bloggers' guesses of late December 2026 to early 2027 are unconfirmed and would leave little time for the effects work. Re-date once iQIYI announces the date.^[1]

  长生骨 (Chang Sheng Gu, "The Immortal Bone") is iQIYI's 36-episode xianxia drama starring Esther Yu (虞书欣) as the clam spirit He Pan and Hou Minghao (侯明昊) as the Taoist master Rong Chenzi.

Drama bloggers report a tentative 20 October 2026 premiere on Tencent Video (21 October has also been mentioned), and a 25 September post on its Mid-Autumn promo says late October, but no date had been announced by 27 September. The leads' previous pairing, Blossom (九重紫), wrapped on 27 March 2024 and premiered on 6 December 2024, about 8 months later; the same gap from a February 2026 wrap lands in October 2026, so the reported 20 October date is used. Re-date when Tencent announces the date.^[1]

  尚公主 (Shang Gong Zhu, "Tigers Sniff the Rose") is Tencent Video's 40-episode period romance of court intrigue, reuniting Meng Ziyi (孟子义) as Princess Mu Wanyao and Li Yunrui (李昀锐) as the low-born strategist Yan Shang for their third drama together. Adapted from Yi Ren Kui Kui's novel, it began filming at Hengdian on 31 August 2025 and has passed review. It is widely reported as tentatively set for 20 October 2026, but Tencent has not announced a date, so the premiere shown here is an estimate.

No date had been announced by 27 September 2026. Wu Lei's last Tencent drama, Amidst a Snowstorm of Love, premiered about 8 months after wrapping (end of May 2023 to 2 February 2024); 8 months from 4 May 2026 is early January 2027, so this uses the last week of Tencent's stated window, 28 December 2026. A fan post's guess of late 2026 to 2027 is unconfirmed. Re-date when Tencent announces the date.^[1]

  剑来 (Jian Lai, "The One") is Tencent Video's 24-episode live-action wuxia fantasy adapted from Fenghuo Xi Zhuhou's web novel, starring Wu Lei (吴磊) as the poor alley boy Chen Ping'an, with Chang Chen (张震) and Li Wanda (李宛妲) in special appearances. Its first season, 笼中雀, was shot in Jiande, Hangzhou from November 2025 to May 2026. Tencent has said only that it will launch in the second half of 2026, so the premiere shown here is an estimate.
