"Unorganized truth will be defeated by systematic evil"
A truly phenomenal drama begins with the massacre of Marshal Lin Xie and the Lin family, along with his 70,000 Chiyan army soldiers, in sixth-century China under the regime of the Emperor of Great Liang.Mei Chang Su, an outstanding and brilliant strategist from the pugilistic world, returns to the capital with a secret plan after being recruited by two favored princes. He chooses to assist the unfavored Prince Jing in rising to the throne and reopening the massacre case. Mei Chang Su believes that to stop the corrupt princes, they must use the same ruthlessness that the princes employed, promising that “we will use whoever we need” to minimize harm. A huge storm is now brewing in Jinling.
Many schemes unfold until the time when an ex-lieutenant of the Chiyan army is captured, creating discord between the male leads. Jingyan wants to uphold his virtues to save him, but Mei Chang Su insists on not getting involved. He states, “The prince has honor and loyalty, but he does not use his brain. The massacre in Meiling is quite enough as an example of loyalty without strategy.”
It is a road with no turning back—a bloodshed battle filled with manipulation. The dream is to reveal the truth of the massacre, but the main goal is to bring a virtuous ruler to the kingdom. A corrupt court will fail to bring justice for the past massacre because the current emperor will never admit his past errors.
The most amazing aspect of this drama is that it fulfills the audience with just one OST and encourages them to be patient, sitting through all 56 episodes without skipping a minute. Because if you do, you will miss very important strategies by Mei Chang Su, a divine talent Marshal Lin Xie.

a nice story about pure heart
The drama follows Tian Yao, a dragon spirit betrayed and left in pieces, and Yan Hui, a spirited young woman who stumbles into his quest to recover his dragon bones. What begins as a reluctant partnership evolves into an adventure of trust, healing, and romance.Yan Hui becomes Tian Yao’s true “heart protection,” guarding him not just physically but emotionally, helping him heal from betrayal and loneliness.
this drama is about love Heart Protection as follow:
Second chances — even a betrayed dragon spirit can find trust again.
Healing romance — love as mutual protection rather than sacrifice.
Partnership — the FL is not a damsel; she actively shapes the journey.
During this journey, Yan Hui often risks herself to protect Tian Yao, and he, in turn, becomes her shield — emotionally and physically.
What amaze me is the test for a couple in order to get the book of ghostly theology, this test make yanhui reconsider what happened before.

Have you ever asked someone to be your companion?
In the drama, the male lead (ML) doesn’t talk about love, but he is determined to offer his support as a confidant to the female lead (FL). He wants to take legal responsibility for both FL and her daughter. What lies within the ML's mind remains a mystery, despite his warm gestures of help. One thing is clear: he also needs a mother for his cute-rebellious son.Raising children is never easy, especially in an incomplete family. However, the idea that two families can come together to create a intact parental role.
I feel deeply touched by this drama. The story and the emotions conveyed by the actors especially the babies truly warm my heart, while the challenges they face on their journey to a happy ending also bring a sense of hurt. Ultimately, it’s about overcoming obstacles to become a true family and nurture love in marriage.

Slice of life
This drama unfolds at a relaxed pace, devoid of hurried plots or chaotic storylines. Instead, it delicately navigates life's challenges, offering therapeutic healing for the female protagonist's trauma through the optimistic and humorous demeanor of the male lead.The background story of a bossy president and a poor assistant is made more refreshing and realistic, making it more plausible for the audience. It adds a good combination of a second female character who serves as a novelist, analyzing the love story of the main characters, creating a path for the secondary love story. Lastly, the warm relationship between parents and children is enjoyable to witness.

A masterpiece of Chinese fantasy Ever!
A masterpiece of Chinese fantasy, this drama beautifully portrays a touching tale of friendship centered around noble dreams of humanity. ''The promise to help the poor and seek righteousness all of their lives''.
However, these dreams are often mocked by those closest to the characters and frequently misunderstood by society.
I love all the elements in this drama! From the captivating storyline to the beautiful cinematography and the well-developed characters, everything comes together to create an engaging experience. The emotional depth and the intricate relationships really draw me in, especially when all the mysteries are revealed, showcasing the sacrifices made by the male lead.
Tears flow without warning—not just from sadness, but from a deep, unspoken sense of empathy or connection. Perhaps it's because the sacrifice made by the male lead in a story mirrors a reality we know too well. His quiet endurance, his choices, and the pain he hides may not just be fiction—they could reflect real sacrifices happening in our own lives, or those around us.
