Overall, the story was beautifully brought to life thanks to its phenomenal cast of actors/actresses, accompanied by beautifully designed costumes and music. Would highly recommend watching this drama if you are a fan of historical and romance Chinese dramas. Definitely one of the top and more memorable dramas of this genre. Both Jing Tian and Allen Ren's acting and portrayal of each respective character were on-point.

The drama does a decent job of covering the actual historical events surrounding the rise of Emperor Daizong of Tang (Li Chu). But at its core, I would say this show is more of a romance story. A very bittersweet but extremely moving romance between the two leads / main couple. Will give you all the feels.

Character wise, Li Chu's character was a 10/10 - there was never a moment where I was frustrated or doubted his behavior / actions in the show. Meanwhile, there were certain parts in the show where I would get pretty frustrated with Zhen Zhu's character behaviors. I would question some of her choice of actions and such, but overall still a wonderful character who complements Li Chu's character.
