Power struggle with twist

The star power in this drama was worth the hype, both Zhao Lusi and Yang Yang are great. The supporting cast in this drama is also really good, especially Xuan Lu, whom I think is underrated as an actress with the likes of "The Untamed" and several big dramas under her name.
The production is excellent as well and the storyline is good. But somehow, I didn't find myself totally immersed into this world. I am not sure why, maybe I need to give it another go but there was something that didn't feel right. Maybe it is some parts dragged and lingered for too long and other parts are rushed. Either way, I wasn't totally wrapped into this.
The acting is excellent and Zhao Lusi plays a character she does so well; the confident, determined and cheeky lady. Yang Yang is that dashing and handsome male lead who is just superior in every way. But in somehow, the character comes across as cold, even when it was a warm and touching scene.
My favorite character for me is Xuan Lu's Feng Qi Wu, who is played perfectly. Her character evolves in the drama but she never loses the core person of who she is - loyalty and intelligence.
The story is good with the normal twist and turns, but as the story developed, you sort of knew where it was going.
The overall production was excellent, as you expect with such a cast.
Overall this is still a good drama to watch. It will entertain and put a smile on your face as the story pops along.
