is there something similar to a dream of splendor?

well i can't say exactly similar to this series yet from what i have watched

are the contenders

1.  the sword and the brocade lean more toward the business side but just mildly.

2. both shows try to showcase women's empowerment, yet are more concerned with the marriage/relationship side of the story.

I'm currently watching destined and I'm getting really similar vibes from it, I wouldn't say it's about women empowerment but it definitely talks about similar themes and just gives really similar vibes.

yanxi palace is a harem story line. besides Wu Jin Yan, there’s nothing in common with dream of splendor. 

even shows like strange tales from the tang dynasty would have more in common with a dream in splendor than yanxi ;)

to be honest  I would not have given these four as similar even though most are great shows. The double is my all time favorite.
it’s more a slice of life than à political plot.
