I usually never start ongoing dramas but the hype surrounding this drama was too much and I was seeing edits and spoilers everywhere so I had to start. I can’t say I’ve watched many cdramas especially historical but I can say from all I’ve watched never have I ever been unable to stop and not get bored midway. Zhang Linghe and Tian xi we were brilliant and I fell in love with this drama. I really feel like reading the book too much because there’s so much more I wanted to see in the end like their second wedding, their kids and just more happy days of them together. I’m sorry the ending came so soon but I understand the starting with the lin an village had to be long because that’s literally one of my favourite parts. Xie Zheng was so so much cooler with his secret letter sending and fighting which injured than he got to be while he was actually with the army. They really robbed us of good fighting scenes from him when he was well and healthy but oh well changyu saved it with her epic scenes. I also had to struggle avd rewind parts to catch vital dialogues concerning the main political parts in the end but I understood it thankfully. I wish I could talk to friends and recommend this more but a lot of non cdrama watchers would definitely struggle. the story it’s based on is so elaborate and detailed that even 40 episodes weren’t enough. despite all that I cannot rate it low because it was seamless, it was beautiful and it made us all fall in love. The cast, the story, the ost and the production was truly beautiful and I cannot praise it enough.
