Quick, satisfying and easy to watch
Have you been watching historical/wuxia/xianxia dramas and been disappointed in how they finish off the villains? Perhaps they don't show them being punished, perhaps the punishment is too light or perhaps, and I hate this the most, they give them a redemption arc and a happy-esque ending?Well worry not because this 21 episode mini-series has handled all the villains perfectly. Short on time they could not really show long torture sessions but they did the next best thing <3
The writing was good, they did stumble once in the end but then again as a mini-series they did not have much time to continue blundering so that saved it. The acting was good enough. The FMC has the chops for long series heavy screentime characters. The MMC however needs either more acting lessons or a different character- his expressions were too smiley (?) for this role. The side characters were good too.
All in all, for a short drama, this is worth your time and I would definitely recommend it

the acting was good! the costumes were gorgeous!!
the leads had good chemistry and understanding of each other. they were so clear about their affection to each other that it saved me from the frustrations of dragged out romantic misunderstandings.
what I liked about fl's character was that she didn't show fear or confusion the moment the original events were dealt with and new challenges were thrown at her. Aldo she fell in love with ml but didn't change her personality! she wasn't dumbed down for ml to look smart, they worked together perfectly. (except in ep 17/18 in which fl made a stupid move and got both of them in trouble)
Here comes my complaints about this drama:
-my main issue with this drama was the dubbing. specially in earlier episodes it was hard not to notice that the audio didn't match or wasn't in sync with their lips.
-the other issue could be the abrupt start of some episodes without prior build up from the previous episode. (though this is common in short length episode cdramas)
-episodes 17&18 were a bit too out of place and out of character for both leads in my opinion. so it deserves its own complaining line in my review!
So should you watch it?
*it's a decent one to start watching short cdramas if you are new to the format.
*it's quite fast paced so it's very binge worthy.

Masterpiece & Must Watch
An absolute masterpiece of a drama, this is my first time seeing this ML as the lead. He performed phenomenally and had great chemistry with the FL. The two carried a great plot and script, although, their acting was so good together they could have read the phone book and I would have watched it. That being said the actual costumes were stunning and the camera work was done very well as well. I love how she wasted no time on revenge and planned for the future early on. The 2ML (original husband) did a great job as well. I actually felt bad for him when he shot her with the arrow. His expressions and small details about him were done VERY well. The queen's daughter was very annoying but she was supposed to be. She was a spoiled brat who was the catalyst for their entire plot falling through. Her stupidity and lack of a vision caused them to start digging especially when she wore phoenix robes to her wedding. The sad (ish) bit was that the Queen was abandoned by the King of Xilian who didnt even bother protecting his own son and daughter. Instead the king/man who actually loved her had to kill her because she betrayed him and chose treason. I do wonder what happened to her family though because treason is a reason for 9 generations of extermination. But she didnt care about her family and vice versa.Was this review helpful to you?
Corto, y muy, muy disfrutable
Un mini muy bien hecho.La fotografía, la producción: hermoso, muy bello. Tiene unas imágenes preciosas.
El casting: los principales, muy pero muy bien elegidos. Ella, sobre todo. Brilla toda la serie.
Guión: intrigas políticas, sobre todo, con una trama de romance entretejida pero que no distrae. Me gustó el balance. Una FL con una inteligencia y una capacidad de estrategia admirable, que no pierde la calma y que ve la cosa como un juego de ajedrez, pero sin perder los sentimientos y con el corazón en el lugar correcto. Un ML que acompaña, la respeta, la ESCUCHA y está ahí para ella, incondicional pero sin interferir.
La relación de estos dos es de lo más SANO que vi en mucho tiempo. Hablan, se comunican, se ponen de acuerdo; y son un dúo de temer para sus enemigos. Suman sus virtudes y restan sus defectos. Una pareja hecha en el Cielo, vamos... me pasé los últimos 10 capítulos diciendo "¡Ya cásense, por favor!" 😂😂😂 Nada, se aman y se nota. Y se RESPETAN. Mucho. Lxs AMÉ 😍
Lxs secundarixs, bueno, sobreactúan bastante, pero no me molestó, la verdad.
La historia tiene sentido, y se comprende bien. No la demoran ni la acortan demasiado. Me gustó también.
En resumen: la disfruté, me gustó, me tuvo enganchadísima mientras la miré y la volvería a ver. Por más FL como esta 💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻

review
- kết phim : HE- nội dung : theo cảm nhận của mình về nội dung cũng như cốt truyện phim khá cuốn, xây dựng tình tiết hợp lí, nhưng về sạn thì vẫn có. Nhưng đối với mình phim ngắn mà làm được tới cỡ này là quá đỉnh rùi. Coi mà ghiền không thoát được luôn ấy 🥲, coi không biết chán là gì
- diễn viên : mình đánh giá khá tốt nét diễn của 2 ac, diễn tốt lắm luôn ấy, từ ánh mắt, biểu cảm, nó lôi cuốn thì thôi nhé
- kỹ xảo phim : đây là phần mình cho điểm trừ, kỹ xảo còn nhiều chỗ hơi lộ với giả. Ví dụ điển hình là cảnh na9 che’m cổ ông kia, nhìn ma’u nó xịt ra giả lắm luon :)))
- ngoại trừ đó thì tổng quan mình thấy đây là bộ phim khá tuyệt vời, nên xem thử nha. Mình đánh giá khá cao về bộ phim này
