Story: 7/10 A revenge plot like any other that revolves around the royals and nobles. I'd say I loved the story. There were loads of repetitive plots that involves palace/family conspiracies and hence the reduction of rating for the story. They were really repetitive, especially when the conspiracies thought of by the female villains was really simple and unentertaining. However, it fully showed how remarkable the female lead was. How smart, fierce and strong she was. And it was really gratifying to see how Princess WY turns the tables against the ones who framed her. She is kind, but once a villain goes over her limits, she doesn't forgive. She is not the usual lead who is all about justice and leave her villains alone so that they could harm her over and over again. (Although some still do, because they have a "huge life" (a direct translation of 'ming da' which means that they are lucky enough to not die easily in chinese) The love lines was really cute and I really enjoyed the interactions between the two leads. Especially so when I know they are dating irl. I ship them so bad. Acting: In my opinion the acting in episode 1 was so bad. I couldn't tolerate it and dropped the drama straight away. Only to come back because of the main leads who ended up dating irl, cause I was just so curious about the male lead who succeeded in getting pretty Tang Yan as his girlfriend. The 1st episode feels a little awkward, a little pretentious, maybe because I had no idea what was going on. But I'm glad I gave the next episode a chance, and I got hooked. The chemistry between the 2 leads was really good. The crying scenes, anger scenes were so good it got me hooked. I cried withe the characters, I felt sad when they were sad and happy when they were. I'd say their acting deserves a good rating. I had all sorts of emotions when I watched it, my mood went up and down along with it. But there were a few supporting actors with awkward acting. Hence the reduction in rating. (One of them would be Cheng De (Tuoba Jun's follower), who I found his facial expressions to be really awkward.) Music: I did enjoy the bgm, opening and ending songs but did not really pay much attention to it. Rewatch: Overall this was a really good and intelligent drama. I rewatched it myself becuase the romance scenes were worth the time. Of course there were still flaws and loopholes in the story like any other, but I'll overlook them because the story itself was still amazing.
