Weak Plot + Horrible Acting = Waste of My Time

So FL’s whole family was wiped out overnight, and she suspected someone in the royal family was behind it. She plotted to wed the crippled crown prince which is the ML, tried to slowly poison him while at the same time trying to conceive royal heir and subsequently avenge her family’s extermination.

The plot is so damn weak, how are you any better if the crown prince dies even if you have a baby with him? Would the baby make any difference if it wasnt crowned before it’s father died? At least FL shouldve aimed for the throne, help ML to ascend the throne or some sort, then only kill him after birthing an heir (which would be ML’s crown prince) for him. Didnt she think the eastern palace would amount to nothing without any backing once the ML dies? What a stupid revenge plan. I can’t stand the actress’ horrible acting and those cheesy scenes between her and the supposedly masked intruder (which was the ML- apparently he wasnt a cripple 🙄). And that little trick of duping the crown prince into marrying her is laughable too. I thought I was watching a cheap self funded shorts that always come up my facebook feed.

FL’s swordplay is too horrible too, just flailing the sword around like a madwoman with no flow at all, gosh I just can’t stand this character. Acting as if she possess great martial ability but only to see her subdued by the third move every single time. I was like, seriously? All that cocky talk and this is the amount of crap that you can show off? For a daughter of a fallen general who was trained in martial art since young, she is very lousy of a fighter. Such a lame character. Whoever hired such lazy screenwriter I really don’t know. What a waste of my 150+ minutes.
