Jing xin si yu

I love this drama! Again this in my favourites rewatch list. I found this to be a very deep drama with a very slow romantic storyline. There's no witty comedy in this drama but you will find the odd joke to break the ice.

This was my first drama watching Wallace Chung (Xu Ling Yi) and Seven Tan (Luo Shi Yi Niang) their acting in this drama was really good the chemistry really bounced off on another. I really hope I get to see them in another historical drama together.

This is a story about a young woman who is forced into being a concubine. We watch from start to finish on her trying to maintain role within the family.

This drama can come across being slow but it is one definitely to carry on watching. Every actor played their role really well superb acting. Each one played there part to keep this great story going..

Ionly had one issue with this drama I felt that the ending was rushed! I'd like to of found out what happened more within the family.

Like I said at the beginning this drama is in my top rewatch list so I definitely recommend it

PS If you love some drama soundtracks you will love this one...

Hang in there because the series really pulls together around episode four. The dynamic of a home with both concubines and a legal wife was portrayed in all it's brutal reality which, at times, was hard to watch. I can't imagine being a woman in China during these periods.

The best part was, Tan Songyun, the lead actress, who gave an almost flawless performance.

I loved this show. Not many shows are getting my attention lately. I just so happened upon this show and though of Cinderella of the Chinese and it isn't like European Cinderella where she sees him and immediately falls for him. Concubine daughter wants nothing to do with noble, ends up falling for him and having to struggle. Just wish I didn't have to read the subtitles in order to watch it...wasn't easy with having the subs flying across my screen and me having to stop, rewind and pause it so many times. But was better than the European/American stories anyday.

I'm not sure how this show managed to make a dull couple with the most tepid temperament so much fun to watch. Perhaps it's the chemistry between the FL and ML (played by Seven Tan and Wallace Chung). Or maybe because they are the least annoying characters among a boatload of over-the-top, melodramatic personalities in this harem drama.

The story follows the trial and tribulation of a concubine's daughter who married into a large prestigious family filled with continuous conflicts and intrigues. There were also several murder mysteries that placed her and her new family at risk. There are definitely plot pitfalls, but not enough to dampen my enjoyment of the show thus far.

Some of the elements that kept me going past twenty-some episodes were the exquisite set design and original soundtracks. The beautiful "Be together" by Zhou Shen is now one of my favorite Chinese drama theme songs. In addition, the performance by Seven Tan and Wallace Chung really was a pleasure to watch.

I recommend this romantic period drama to anyone who needs a fun little mental escape at the end of a long day.

It a pleasant C-drama. Very slow start then the drama grab hold of you & don't let you go till last episode...it mostly talking..a lot of that & days to days of aristocracy life. Rich women problem & full belly problem....through all that a major conspiracy had to be resolved.
