well i can't say exactly similar to this series yet from what i have watched
The Sword and the Brocade (2021)The Story of Ming Lan (2018)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.
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.
