Legend of Mr and Ms Incognito
Hei Fengxi and Bai Fengxi are two of the greatest warriors in Jianghu, Hei Fengxi being known for being prideful and conniving, while Bai Fengxi for carefree and unrestraint in her actions. As their fate entertwined in the search for the Imperial’s imperyan tokens that got lost, they found themselves drawn to each other closer than they ever thought they could be.
I put off this title for so long since I put it on hold after the first episode. Don’t know why i somehow lost interest after FL got injured trying to save the general who was carrying one of the tokens. Months (or was it years?) went by and after Zhao Lusi’s impressive performance in Love’s Ambition, I decided to continue.
Well, the first few episodes were rather horrendous and confusing the endure, as there were so many characters and kinghood being thrown in. And the surname Feng being used over and over again by different unrelated peoples only made it worse. Took me quite a number of episodes to finally grasped that there was a main imperial government that supposedly ruled over the land and then there were kings of the six states that the kingdom was divided into. The ancestors of the six state kings were those who fought their way during the first emperor’s rise to the throne, hence why they were granted kinghood and domain to rule over, which were the 6 states. Each unique to their own political struggle and upon the lost of empyrian tokens, all (except Qingzhou) were keen to conquer other states and march to the capital to seize the throne and unite the land.
I must say Yang Yang and Zhao Lusi had an uncanny chemistry. I always saw Yang Yang as an older generation to Zhao Lusi since the last show I saw of him was the movie Once Upon a Time with Liu Yifei which he also had great chemistry with. It turned out he had no problem creating that chemistry with the young Zhao Lusi too! Wow. Kudos to both!
I loved how badass the FL was, but i thought she had too much damsel in distress situations that needed rescuing by ML. So yeah there were two times where she rescued ML but thats about it. I guess my personal preference is an on-par relationship like how the ML and FL were in Luoyang - they save each other alternately and their skills match each other.
Anyway. I think the Tianshuang Sect is full of braindead people. It’s a wonder how they produced a prodege like Bai Fengxi, when the master repeatedly fell into traps which ultimately cost his own life. Best part is he also produced a stupid offspring to carry on the stupid gene. Gosh i hate these characters even more than the villain in this show.
I loved ML’s half brother Feng Chang though. The screenwriter did right by him by not turning him against ML like in other typical power struggle. There were so many instances that I thought, “okay he’d sure betray ML,” but he didnt! He stayed true and loyal to ML right to the end even though they never shared a birth mother. That’s a real wowsie.
I love the songs, theyre catchy and nice to listen to. Am gonna add one or two to my running playlist.
The action scenes had too many dogfights, gosh theyre flying all over the place that it felt too comical.
Basically an okay show, not the best but not too bad either. It is endurable especially if u like one of the mainleads (or both!).
