Bella

I agree with this being a great comedy. I loved all of the characters and thought casting was good. I only had a couple or problems—one, not enough affection between main characters. He had several opportunities to kiss the queen and although he kept saying he wanted her to know how he felt, he didn’t take advantage of those times. Second, I was totally lost in ep. 23 when he was injured and the queen dressed his wounds seeing his scarred back. How did he get hurt. There was nothing to explain how he ended up in bed with everyone worrying about him—no fight, no ambush, just nothing.

I really liked her interaction with her childhood friend and her parent’s relationship. I didn’t understand why she and her mother were in that little village away from her dad for her whole life. But, when her mother came to her dad’s house, her parents act/say they are married, then her mother runs away to the palace because her dad wants to get married. Confusing.

Other than those two main issues, I really enjoyed this show. I liked the emperor’s friends and how much they cared about him and I really loved the way his family all got along and his younger brother was so inventive and supported him wholeheartedly. Having the queen’s sister be a writer of romance novels was fun too. The girl can’t win over the emperor but has all these great love scenes in her stories.

Although it was a fantasy, I enjoyed the uncle’s PA system—it just added to the farcical theme of the show. I would like to see a sequel to this to see what other kinds of trouble this group can get into. It’s a fun time in my opinion.

The heroine is too ugly to play the main role

The plot is simple, some costumes, some styles, some makeups and sushi eating scenes look Japanese. Jackie Li real name is Lamu Yoko (Sound Japanese) I hope this drama wouldn’t cause any problems to some Chinese extremists in China who don’t like the Japanese culture. I watched this drama because of the two actors Li Hongyi and Bai Shu.
Queen Jin Feng played by Jackie Li is terrible, she is too ugly to play the main role, but her voice is very nice and should be played as the voice actress and the supporting role. Emperor Yun Shang played by Li Hongyi is very handsome and a very good looking. Li Hongyi acting skills in ancient costume drama have been improving a lot. Chang Ya played by Bai Shu, a good looking guy and always has a good humorous. The soundtrack performed by Jackie Li and Li Hongyi are also good, both have a nice voice.
In conclusion: It’s just simply a comedy Chinese mixed Japanese ancient costume drama, but the ugly Queen is too regrettable.

A Lendária vida da Rainha Lau

Amei demais, a História, o Drama é maravilhoso e alegre Gosto de Dramas onde o casal principal não se separam, por isso amei esse, espero muito uma segunda temporada, a Rainha e o Imperador, formaram um lindo casal e tiveram um química perfeita. Excelente trabalho dos atores Hong Li Yi e Jackie Li, formaram um bela dupla e espero vê-los com par romântico em outros Dramas, os dois estão de parabéns! Parabéns a toda a equipe do Drama! Amei, amei, amei, super indico. ❤️❤️❤️❤️

Intrigant plot but the tone becomes quickly unbearable

The plot might seem interesting: an arranged marriage between the future emperor and the (chubby and not very attractive) daughter of the Highest Councillor.

But the tone of the drama, whimsical, even comic, with many overplayed characters, repetitive coincidences, becomes painful, more than funny! The OSTs are in the same tone (shifted to accentuate the Comedy aspect). The apotheosis is the end in Bollywood's style...

Moreover, this romance between the emperor and his wife does not show real chemistry. There are no cute or intimate scenes! In short, I couldn't believe this couple.

I watched it untill the end of curiosity, but even if I like ML, I will certainly not rewatch this drama.

Le plot pouvait sembler intéressant : un mariage arrangé entre le futur empereur et la fille (dodue et pas très séduisante) du plus Grand Conseiller.

Mais le ton du drama, fantaisiste, voire comique, avec beaucoup de personnages surjoués, des coïncidences répétitives, devient vitre pénible, plus que drôle ! Les OST sont dans le même ton (décalées pour accentuer l'aspect Comédie). L'apothéose, c'est la fin Bollywood ...

De plus, cette romance entre l'empereur et sa femme ne montre pas de réelle alchimie. Il n'y a aucune scène cute ou intime ! Bref, je n'ai pas réussi à croire à ce couple.

Je suis allée au bout par curiosité, mais même si j'aime bien le ML, je ne visionnerai pas ce drama à nouveau.
