I got baited.
After watching the trailer I thought this drama will introduce something new to the historical revenge genre, unfortunately, just within 8 episode I feel as though it baits you to an interesting premise of a duality of the actress yet proceeds to comply to a generic plot with tad bit of exaggeration almost resembling a TikTok short drama story.
I was impressed with Tian Xiwei's portrayal of Jundai/Wei Rao in episode one, it was so riveting because finally they have a female character to be so bloody brutal in literal sense. Yet, over time, I become quickly disappointed in her rash/impatient action rendering her to lack the ability to actually be calculative. But still Tian Xiwei deserves the praise for her portrayal of a villain.
Yan An's character Lu Zhuo character is definitely an accessory character. I anticipated his character to have the same level of crazy as Jundai but somehow it was rather lukewarm and he felt more of a side character rather than a ML.
I will still keep watching, hopefully it will be better.

Well it didn't got better. The story became a colossal mess.
