Totaly in love with this drama!
The first half was everything I didn't know I needed. Watching Xie and Fan slowly fall in love felt natural—tender, unhurried, and deeply satisfying. I loved that she was strong enough to stand on her own, and I loved even more that he was always there, quietly watching, but never stepping in unless she truly needed him. There was something beautiful about that.
The humor caught me by surprise. I laughed out loud more than once. The falcon became an unexpected favorite, and their little found family warmed my heart. I loved their pig butcher squad—it really showed how they became a family and always took care of each other. Gongsun was a delight—always teasing him about being a married man. And Qian? Her story stayed with me. Qi Min played her possessive partner so well. It was messy and painful, but I loved that the drama didn't sugarcoat it. Sometimes love is toxic, and this one showed that honestly. And the children? They brought such lightness. Every scene with them felt like a small gift.
I was hooked from episode one. Twenty episodes flew by like nothing. The costumes were stunning, the fight scenes were insane, and I literally finished the whole thing in two weeks because I couldn't stop watching.
It took me a few episodes to recognize who was who, as the characters all looked quite similar at first. But I got there eventually, and finally understood the court intrigues.
If I have one regret, it's that the drama was too short. I never thought I'd say that, but an extra10 episodes would have given the story room to breathe. The second half felt rushed at times, as if certain moments were brushed past too quickly. I'm grateful they took their time in the beginning—that slow pace was where the heart of the drama lived.
The ending caught me off guard. I didn't expect to feel for the villains, but I did. When you think about it, just a few minutes of your live could changed everything. And when the truth came out about what happened 16 years ago? I was crying. The glimpse of what could have been broke my heart.
I'm going to miss Xie and Fan. Their chemistry was undeniable, their pairing unforgettable. This one left a mark.
