rare in chinese
I had little hopes for this drama; i was expecting a lavish set and terrible story-line HOWEVER i was proven wrong these are the few Chinese drama that are comparable to its competitor genre. Let me start with the plot, obv, this is gonna be tragedy but the plot line started strong and ended strong; there's no confusing villain every episode but just like a novel it has it's introduction, middle, climax, and ending. I love how the cast portrayed the main characters with the emperor down to the concubines, no cliche-devotion shz here sist. These are few of the Chinese drama that are definitely written well i'm surprised it didn't get the high rating it deserve. (I used to hate half-shaven head but boy oh boy the wallance hou didn't let me down) This drama lit ignited my interest toward my old-hate and now ignited curiosity about qing china. I love how every character has it's yin-yang and there's no cliche-ass female lead like the title suggest.
