    Great drama !

    A great drama, very good performance and amazing chemistry between the main leads. Some claim the story copies Nirvana - that is not true, as I have watched both dramas. Is like saying all love stories are the same, because it involves a couple...Now they are trying to take out this drama and even involve the name of the main male actor in the scandal supposingly regarding the injury of a horse during shooting... While I hope this is not the case, accidents sometimes happen not only yo animals but also with actors and cast members. It is at duch times they need our support, wishing them well recovery and urging them to take better care . We must separate the cases of willfull injuries from regretfull accidents, and stop unfounded malicious rumours.

    Of 3000 strands of worry, does it matter if I keep one of them?Let it be bound to me forever..

    This series is well made, effects are impeccable and feels quality, even the fight choreography and photography/scenery.

    This show had an awesome start, all the way to the middle.

    Epic backstory , compelling storylines, and amazing fights scenes.

    But then it got weaker and weaker to the point it stopped being as interesting.

    There's a lot of very interesting plots that aren't taken advantage in depth, quickly solved and not detailed enough or even forgotten and never resolved.

    The ending feels rushed and is not satisfying enough.

    The female lead character being so unconventional, super strong and independent, quirky and extremely smart and made me very engaged from the beginning but that was eventually disappearing and she felt a conventional supportive character for the last part of the show.

    The chemistry between the main couple was great at the beginning they had many funny scenes together and It was also refreshing to see such a healthy and balanced relationship but this scenes disappear and the chemistry and dialogues get weaker and repetitive from the middle onwards.

    I love how lately Zhao Lusi has picked such non stereotypical and feminist roles. She can really transform while she is acting and her performances are brilliant such raw talent from such young actress.

    Yang Yang is picking great roles lately too but He is very much acting the same way just with different roles and if it wasn't for his great counterparts the dramas would become bland.

    I honestly found You are my glory or The Long Ballad way better but Maybe I was expecting more from this although it has pretty good moments.

    Still nice entertaining watch, give it a go.

    The best fantasy adventure action romance Cdrama ever!

    Loved Zhao Lusi! This is the best fantasy romance cdrama ever from her!

    The male lead/yang yang is also good-looking. Both are beautiful & portrays their characters very well! They are so natural together. No awkwardness between them. They are comfortable with each other.

    The best romance cdrama ever! The chemistry between the 2 main leads - lan xi & feng Xi is amazing! The built-up romantic relationship between them from the start to finish is awesome!

    For once the male lead/lan Xi does not cheat, lie or betray her/feng Xi.

    They don't lie to each other in the excuse of protecting the other BS. No breaking up & making up. Just pure friendship turns into a relationship.

    They actually cooperate with each other to solve matter at hand.

    Despite all the lies, deceit & betrayal from other characters like Baili the witch in disguise, in most c & k drama in sub-plot. Baili is not only evil but also despicable! Got tired llooking at her scenes!

    Immature, temperamental & childish Langhua!

    But here the 2 leads attraction & interaction pulls you & put a smile on your face at each episode!

    The only thing that doesn't ends up - suddenly the first prince can stand & walk, he was in the wheelchair & when did the first & second brothers became good brothers again.

    Further it is not shown who is the evil Lady's maid, always hear her voice but not the face. The maid did all the array of evil deeds for the so called former maid empress.

    They both display what love is all about & sacrifices for each other!

    Truly the best! Worth the watch! They are compatible! They look good together!

    The best couple ever in cdrama!

    Highly recommended!

    This is not a cheap production, no cartoonist, no animation to replace big fight scenes, no special effects from a burning fire, the battle scenes were amazing, the fights scenes are awesome, the wedding scene is so grandeur, no fake kissing.

    Could not find anything negative to say about this drama. The best ever!

    Fantastic

    Just when you think it's getting redundant about episode 21 it renews itself and you see it's not only a war against his brother but a great love story. I'm thoroughly enjoying it and I'm on episode 32. It's worth putting up with the subtitles. And not only are the actresses great but beautiful as well. And I'm sure the women will think the same of the actors. Siri singly good. I'm amazed there are only 490?reviews.. people are missing out big time!
