A Multi-Layered Historical Mystery Built on Strategy and Revelation
I loved this drama. It has several comedic and riveting scenes that still make me rewind to rewatch 3 years later. The narrative is highly engaging and is presented as a mystery that unfolds to reveal the characters' backstories and how they influence the present. This is my favorite Cheng Yi drama, as I dropped many of his other works. I think all the characters are presented with depth, and their relationships are highly impactful. It also presents an interesting historical storyline that delves into China's history of eunuchs controlling the courts. If you enjoy strategy, critical thinking, multi-layered plots & planning, this might appeal to you.
