The scheming!!

I just completed this drama and I'm happy I give it a fair chance because I enjoyed the politics, the scheming and acting a lot. The way how it was all schemes and it felt like a game they were playing and only one person will be the victor.

I also realised after finishing this that this felt like the FL was a graduate who had no work experience and landed her first job not as an entry level but much higher, and though she had the qualification she did not have any actual experience, thats how the first 5-7 episodes felt to me and that's probably why I felt like so much was happening, because she joined a game with veterans, but after she went and got experience, she came back formidable, all that hidden talent without the experience to back it up started fshowing, and she was on top of the scheming game.

The lead FL acting was well done especially in the first few episodes when she was reborn, anyone in their right mind would act like that, and I think it made this a bit different. The ML he did his part well, but I honestly wanted to see more of his fighting, when they first introduced him his fighting scenes were great, but they did not give us a lot of it. Now lets go to our Prime minister, gosh I am impresssed with Daddi Tang, who knew he had it in him, I've only scene him in comedy but he stood out the most to me. The young emperor actor he is going to do big things, he's already so imposing, I look forward to see him even more.

The romance had a lot of yearning and staring into eachother eyes, some kiss scenes but based on this type of drama and the story, it was enough. I feel like they had the first half to hash out everything and formed this unbreakble bond, and then the second half was to focus on whats at hand... I definitely enjoyed the second half a lot more than the first half though.
