This drama is so slept on. It is so good!
As an avid cdrama watcher, this drama was insane!! It is completely slept on and being overshadowed by others, and it is such a hidden gem!
I wanted to first bring up the chemistry. OH MY LORD the chemistry. The FL and ML talk with their eyes, both of their eyes oozing love for one another; this level of acting is insane. Truly applause for Ci Sha and Ren Min, their acting was exceptional. The way the loved each other, cared for one another makes this pair one of my favorite couples out of the 100+ cdramas I have watched. I have seen many people complaining about Chen Yanyun looking to old or favoring the second ML, but honestly, I cannot get over the chemistry between the two. The love that CYY has for his wife, the stability even when he is angry, the maturity, makes him the best husband out of them all. Their love , the way their eyes soften when they are around each other, the way their body gravitates to one another, alone made this show worth the watch.
Even without them being together in the start of the show wasn't a problem, after all watching our FL, a character who is genuinely smart and crafty, make her way through the capital was enticing. I love how even after marriage she wasn't made some dumb character who fades into the back, she remained sharp throughout, and CYY loves her for it! Again just Ren Min did this role so well!
On to the plot, overall it was coherent, and made sense. It was a bit cliche, but interesting nonetheless. The emperor was a great character, watching him actually become smart instead of some puppet child emperor, schemeing with CYY and Ye Xian was very fun to watch. That reminds me, I loved CYY and Ye Xians developing friendship, they went from strangers fighting over the same girl, to truly people who relied on each other in battle, their relationship was heartwarming to watch (especially towards the end; I started crying, they did care for each other in a way).
For those of you wondering about the ending, it is a happy ending so don't worry (well relatively happy...). Like many others, I did wish for more from the ending, some closure on how everything ended, how is the court, the people, but the rest of the show truly makes up for it.
To all of you reading this review, WATCH THIS DRAMA! IT IS SO GOOD!
