I quite enjoy the story, it's a fairly typical wuxia type of story: many characters, and they come and go. I just find it bizarre that under the circumstances, these youngsters have no sense of urgency and importance. All of them including Xie Yun, Li Sheng, Li Yan, Wu Chuchu even Zhou Fei, just drag their feet and dilly dally most of the time, making this drama a light, non-serious watch. Maybe this is what it's supposed to be -- a rom-com or, just like the comedic slapstick drama The Six Gates -- but with high paying, large fan-based actors just to attract viewers.

LOL! Love your summary, short and curt!

They use a live guinea pig for the dagger? WTF!

Episode 73 - What?

The Guo Kai character is so familiar in today's world, especially in the US politics. The smartest person in Zhao state would have been the Empress.

Great article. Really enjoy reading it. Thanks!

Started watching right after you did. I have mixed feelings with this drama, espousing all the negative and positive comments on this page. I love the wuxia elements here, but the non-urgency demeanor really gets me. That's why I couldn't breath, or else I'll start screaming @*%&$^#*@.

I give up!

Finish episode 18. I can't breath.

If you don't care whether if there is a HEA ending, or not a fan nor anti of Xiao Zhan, then you may like this drama a lot :)

MDL has consolidated part 1 & part 2 into just one drama as the way it's being released on TV. It is by itself a complete drama.

She got some potion from Yao Ji to make her strong. That's why she could fight the palace soldiers single-handedly. The tradeoff was she would be poisoned and died. She was prepared for this because she didn't want to live alone without Bo Wang who was dying. Yao Ji had told her everything.

Yes, that's why my heart is always for Bo Wang; I feel him.

Thanks. Have you watched The Wolf? Strongly recommended :)

Too slow? I like the pace. So many things are happening. So many characters are introduced, and she's like a sponge, absorbing everything.

Forget about the 31:08 thing. Different platforms have different lengths. It should be more than half way through the episode.

Episode 14, 31:08. Correction, not Ying Pei but rather, Ji Yun Chen tells Xie Meimei about Zhou Fei cutting off the enemy. After Xie Meimei's complaint, Ying Pei just rolls his eyes. So hilarious! That's my favorite scene.

Worth watching? I do need something that makes me laugh out loud :D

Oh, Han Fei.

I would have preferred they are more serious than having too many of this type of recycled jokes.
