Amazing cdrama

I have to admit that for me it's one of the best cdramas I've watched recently and I was very drawn into watching it... I couldn't tear myself away. Especially the main characters Chu Bei Jie and Bai Ping Ting. Great performance by Wallace Chung - number one for me among the whole cast. The great experience of this actor is immediately visible. The character of the general played by Wallec was genuine and I liked him immediately ... he was very masculine, handsome, honest, emotional and passionate ... the ideal man ... when necessary he goes and fights, as he loves it with all his heart ... actually in of this relationship of the main characters, it was CBJ that constantly initiated romantic scenes, because BPT was unfortunately very withdrawn, especially at the very beginning, then it got going, but also not enough to initiate romantic moments ... However, I think that you could feel the chemistry between the main characters ...especially I was very positively surprised by the scenes of passionate and bold kisses by CBJ and BPT and the scene in the cave when Ping Ting protects the wounded Bei Jie with his own body - great ... I haven't seen such scenes in other cdramas and I missed it, because the kiss scenes in dramas they are usually so weak, as if children give each other a kiss. So 10 points straight to the director for bravery. The plot is incoherent in places and some threads could be omitted, but it does not affect the whole of my rating. The performance of the other actors was also good, I think that everyone rose to the occasion, especially Sean Sun who played On Xia full of power, who sacrificed even his pregnant wife for his sick ambitions of power and sowed death and destruction around. The music is great, especially the main theme, which was performed by William Wei and Claire Kou in various parts of the film, especially in the scenes with the main characters, especially when they were separated and CBJ missed Ping Ting so much and seemed to sense that he was somewhere nearby and the scene when they met after 3 years at PT's grave and in this house - it broke my heart ... By the way, I didn't like that the main characters were separated for 3 years! I don't know what it was supposed to be for... it was terrible... I don't understand how a wife and mother can not give a chance to be a father, the father of her child... during their separation She had a child and focused on his upbringing, and He had neither her nor the child ... it's terrifying that for a stupid argument that she didn't deserve him or whatever she described, she delayed revealing herself and the child for 3 years ... it's good that she finally took pity and she came out of hiding... but I think this thread is unnecessary... I don't know if it was like that in the original book too, but since they didn't stick to the book version anyway, they could have handled it differently and given the main characters time for themselves, for their family before they start fighting for peace in the kingdom of Jin and the rest of the kingdoms. A positive ending for the bog=haters, because fortunately they did not die and were able to live on, although when CBJ finally became the emperor and Ping Ting the empress, it was not end of her dream, because she wanted to live with him peacefully away from of the imperial court... well, duty towards the country and subjects won, as it happens in these cdramas. But the most important thing is that the main characters are together! For my part, I recommend watching it.

Absolutely disappointing ending and cruel writers of the script

I couldn't bear to watch Yuchi Longyan have to live all these "lives" of the main character Liu Ying for so many years, it was too painful... ...and the beginning was so sweet for the two main characters.... when Dragon YL didn't know earthly life and was just getting to know.... I watched 10 episodes and the last episode, the rest of the episodes I read the synopsis...
I agree with @Onelovestorie's comment below...."The stupid 'lifetimes' were so stupidly executed and the reasoning behind the whole charade was so ridiculous!" I have the impression that the writers of the script either have some psychopathic inclinations and enjoy making the heroes of their stories suffer, or they write under the influence of some kind of alcohol intoxication .... because I do not believe that you can invent such mental and physical torture for the characters sober. I think that 1 "lifetimes" would be enough, it's still too much to look at a loved one from the side, extending it to 4 "lifetimes" didn't make sense .... and also this idiotic ending, fatal for me and not giving the main characters a chance for a normal life after all these sufferings.... because where did they finally land in the realm of the spirit? So, in fact, they live somewhere out there without being material ... well, really, congratulations to the screenwriters for such a final sloppy thing that YL and LY funded ... After such scenarios, I don't want to watch the next fantasy dramas...
