Not what I expected ....
so basically the story is compelling and acting is great but somehow I feel something is messing .
from the get go they focused on FL story and it's obvious given the drama's title but the kept trying to make her so independent and strong to a point to me it felt annoying I mean I get it she is a general and spent her life fighting and training but she is a women it was okay to see xiao jue protecting her for once but it was he yan protecting him all of the drama .
chu Zhao was the greyist character I have ever seen like are you good or evil couldn't get it , it first he served xu jingfu but all of a sudden he was helping FL maybe out of love but I think it's more out of ambition , the final part when he prevented FL and ML marriage was so useless and the breaking point for me when he more or less caused yan he 's death like it's people's lives at stake let your schemes and ambition aside for a moment .
the emperor what was he doing like anyone advise him with something , he is like sure let's do it , not your typical cdrama emperor they are always cunning and clever , this one seemed weak for me .
some things felt rushed for me I would have wished to see he ruefei executed , he yan mother's burial those were sentimental moments for me but we didn't get to see it .
both leads and supporting actors did great job .
loved the seen when he confessed his love for her at court .
but can't get over the fact that she lived most of if not all of her life as a man, how was she acting all cute when she asked him to train her in the beginning and in alot of different occasions , I didn't convinced me at all that she was raised as a man , she was acting as a girl for me 🤷
great drama but for me it was lacking .
