If you enjoyed the chemistry of the second lead in The Long Ballad , you should definitely watch The Story of Pearl Girl, where they both play the main leads. Both dramas are historical, not fantasy, and are female-centric.
Both are ongoing historical dramas. One of the most anticipated dramas right now is Brocade's Odyssey.
Both Flourished Peony and The Story of Pearl girl are set in the Tang Dynasty. Both are business drama one being flower cultivation business and the other being jewellery business. Both have strong female lead.
The three kingdoms of Dayan, Xiyan, and Nanyue fought for many years, and the Weibei army led by Murong Jing He, the prince of Dayan, who had excellent combat power, suffered heavy losses in the Western Yan army and returned to the court in triumph to receive a reward, was betrayed on the march route, was framed, caught off guard, and the entire army was annihilated. The court is treacherous and the dark tide is rising.
As the center of the whirlpool, Jing He never gave up on investigating the truth of the incident, finding out who is behind the scenes, and comforting the heroic souls of the fallen soldiers. The dead warrior Mei Lin became the only "dead chess" on Jing's chessboard and revenge. Although Mei Lin is a dead soldier, he has a tenacious will to survive, and in order to get out of the dark factory, she and Jing He launched a turbulent struggle.
Jing He made extreme use of the beginning to gradually recover his sincerity. Mei Lin went from ignorance at the beginning to the beginning of love. In the confrontation between the two "chess players and chess pieces", the sadomasochistic love is deep and they cannot love.

Yeah this story-genre is different too but
--the male leads character is very similar. Both male leads are morally grey and kind of red flag . Slow burn and slowly developed feelings for female lead. Both are vengeful , manipulative , schemer and master of a musical instrument ....... female lead learn things from male lead.....
-- even the character of second male lead is kind of similar too . Like nice and kind but not meant for female lead.
-- In SOKP fl is also strong and capable character. Though she was villain in her first timeline .....you will be able to see the growth of female leads in both dramas .
