Alexa play ' Let the world burn' by chris grey.

The song pretty much sums up everything. I wish it went another way, but damn it was inevitable.
Acting is okayish, chemistry builds up gradually & stays good. The fames look good(decent production value) beautiful cinematography. Costumes are pretty, but are repeated a bit too much which affects the continuity.
I don't want to give away much of the plot. The main characters are two people put in difficult situations & were forced to make difficult choices. MC & ML both have their reasonings, i may not agree with most of it, but it is what it is. Wish it had more episodes to shape the plot a bit better.
Don't know why they went with a sad ending story despite it not being a Chinese production. Excuse me while I go watch The untamed again to heal my heart.

This might be an odd thing to notice, but it sounds like it was dubbed by the actors, that is both good & bad. This works for some characters but not for others. It sounds like casual modern conversations, which comes across as jarring sometimes, given the historical & imperial setting ( could be a script/ dialogue delivery issue, don't know exactly). Editing is messy & it makes the plot confusing.
Overall it is a good watch if you are ok with not so happy endings.
