This year has been a drama slump for me, couldn't seem to really get into dramas this year and only a few of them have really left an impression on me, this drama being one of them. To me it was a refreshing change of plot without the usual tropes being involved. In most dramas, I tend to find the secondary plot a bit of a drag, terribly sorry to most dramas, but I do not care what the villain is up to, like leave me guessing or just don't show the evil dude, like I really could not care at all what he is up to. And I hate to admit that I am like this with secondary leads as well. I am here for the main plot and no supporting characters that take up most of the screen time. I know the evil dude and the plots have big roles but could I care ? Not one bit. There is stupidity in either main plot, evil dude story or secondary plot. I can't handle stupidity x3. Glad to say this isn't one of these dramas and that really helped me out of said slump.

I love the visuals and the writing of this. I love how both leads are powerful in their own right. It really is rare to see leads be powerful in an equal setting, most of the time it is the ml being more powerful and resourceful than the fl, which is nice but gets a bit boring for me. I love it when a fl is powerful and can equally match the ml in terms of power and it is justified too. She was a crown prince and a general. Like yes she is that girl.

I also love the shameless of the ml, I do not like leng bing bing mls, and I am happy to say that ji bozai did not disappoint. The female lead also had her own moments and really matched the vibe of the couple well. I just feel like leads pairing really was so good and evenly matched. One thing that does bother is how some people were saying like the fl should've told the ml sooner about being poisoned and for that I have to say like I loved that she held out on her secret for as long as she did, to me it was nice to see that she try to solve her inner conflict about either dying or betraying him, for as long as she did. To me it showed that she didn't take the matter lightly.
Also, the fact that she held onto her secret of being ming xian for as long as she did, consider me impressed. Usually, the ml would like figure it out instantly or just within a short period of time, but girly held tight to that secret like her life depended on it, cause it did, like if she revealed it, she would be betraying him as her previously mentioned secret would be exposed. I love it when a plot, like actually plots and puts importance on the small things. I also love the angst that came with it.

Basically there is not much that I do not love about this drama. Only the airing schedule that was a pain and a half, what do you men one episode a day for some days? That is over as it is completed.
