I watched the part 1& 2, 8x and still fall in love with it. I laugh, cried, mad, sad and have vengeful thoughts because of LBY. This is the show that I started following Zhao Lusi and became her avid fan. I just love her character whether its Niaoniao or Shaoshang. She is so feisty, highly intellectual, free spirit, vengeful but also looks so innocent. Her voice changes which heighten her portraying as 15 years old girl. Her acting superb and very relax not force at all. Her chemistry with Wu Lei is solid. I love all the other cast too, my second favorite will be the grandma, next the emperor and her friend who is very rich. The villains are very good too, you truly hate them like the fifth princess, Shaoshang's mom, LBY & LBY's dad. The show is serious, but they add comedy in it, which I applaud the director. It could had been too heavy if it's just full drama! I also like the love between Shaoshang and the empress, she compensated Shaoshang's yearning for mother's love! As for Wu, his really a good actor but he just has these same facial expressions probably that's what the character ask him to do. I will continue to re-watch and recommend this show for everyone. Shaoshang reminds me of Xu Yan, both fierce, fearless, vengeful but kind & soft hearted! Zhao Lusi, thank you for truly an amazing job with this show and your other shows ( Love's Ambition, Hidden Love, Who Rules the World, The Story of Pearl Girl, Dating in the Kitchen......)
