An Extraordinarily Brilliant FL
I love this drama because the FL is presented as strong-willed, cunning and brilliant in her plans and maneuvers so that she rose to supreme power by sheer manipulation rather than using brute force. Her style and ways are so subtle but very effective. The actors played their roles very well especially the leads.The FL is very beautiful and with regal bearing. She has strong commanding presence as a royal wife. The ML General Yang Peng Cheng is so handsome. The two leads are so beautiful together. There is chemistry between them even though they were not really motivated by genuine love for each other.
I really cannot understand the ancient Concubine System in China or in other parts of the world in ancient time. They only create a lot of political tensions and terrible jealousies among the concubines which involved their powerful families. The outcome are usually very tragic. Glad that it is no longer prevalently practiced today even though there are still some men who keeps mistresses.
