Very interesting.....must watch
So let me start with that I came to this drama with the only goal of watching Cheng Lie....that's it he was the plot for me.
I am not a particular fan of Chinese drama from this time period, mostly because I am not very familiar with Chinese history and I end up feeling more confused and frustrated with how female roles are displayed. The introduction of some western luxurious things while complete absense of them in the areas that matter baffles me, annoys me and frustrates me. I just avoid such dramas, this is a me issue.
However as I said I came for Cheng Lie and I am glad I did. This drama, the first arc was captivated me from the first Ep. I finished it all in 2 days straight. Everyone acted superbly, all roles were gray and just so intriguing and involving that I might come back one day to it to actually watch the second and third arc. My dropping this drama has nothing to do with the story or content or acting. It's a gem and I highly recommend watching this one.
Job well done in execution!! Kudos to the team.
