I didn't think I would finish this in a blink of an eye, I got a heads up that it was a sad ending and I really really hate sad ending an I avoid them like a plague lol. But this one really made my eyes open and heart ache a lot. I hate that this isn't a xuanhuan drama where they can still come back alive.
So many sacrifices, so many deaths. Did it perhaps come into their minds that death was unnecessary and there's another way out other than death? There were so many choices that could lead to a better outcome but who am I to say this. Sigh, but things have escalated to a point of no return, and death was their only way out.
Acting is superb! This is my first time seeing PXR and CXX act but wow, they amazed me so much! I want to see them act again but with a happy ending HUHUHU. There's a few problems with their characters though. (tbf, which one doesn't?)
Xiaofeng- a bubbly girl, naive though as she may be, she brings liveliness wherever she goes and that's a point. As a young girl she went through a lot yet still remained as a kind and trusting girl which unfortunately was used against her. If Iwas in her poisition i'd want to jump into the river of oblivion too. Unpopular opinion though, as the crown princess and supposed future empress she's tasked with a heavy responsibility on her shoulders and for her to carry those responsibilities, she should get pass (or past?) her feelings especially since she was there for a political marriage and the XI province's people's fate lies on her hand. IF she wasn't the MC and just a minor character, I don't know how many times the Xi province will be annihilated because she escapes so so much. But in the end, at least she bought the Xi province peace, though for a hefty price.
Li Chengyin- A pitiful and hateful man. WHEN THEY ADDED THE TAG ' JERK ML' THEY WEREN'T KIDDING. He used Xiaofeng for his revenge as GXW but fell for her and that's when you know shit was going down because even though he loves her, he still went on and annihilated Danchi even though he knows it'd going to cause her pain. He was stuck up with revenge that he lost sight of what was in front of him. I can't say I like him because he really causes QXF so much pain and Sese too. He was protecting QXF, but his way of protecting her was really shit and he says he has no other choice?? Bitch could've had told QXF that it was he was his way of protecting her so they can act together instead of pushing her into a pit of hell thinking that he doesn't like her. Protecting QXF however, projected very badly on Sese. He knows the empress hates Sese but still openly protects Sese causing her to be punished. He pushed General Pei and Gu Jian to a path of no return just because they both like QXF when he's incapable of bringing her happiness. I even thought that the previous crown prince (2nd prince), although won't love QXF, he would at least treat QXF with respect. His ending.... he deserves it.
Gu Jian- HE DESERVES BETTER THE FUCK. If this was a rebirth novel, he would be the Ml and Li chengyin is the hateful person Mc would strive to avoid. He sacrificed so much for the MC and was really really remorseful for his action. Li Chengyin pales in comparison. If there is a 2nd life, I wish him a smooth sailing life, he deserves really better.
Sese- her only sin is loving Li Chengyin. I SAID WHAT I SAID.
General Pei- i fucking love him and i hate ML for forcing him into a marriage just because he was jealous.
Special mention: 2nd prince- the previous crown prince and Li Yan- I really really like the relationship of the two of them. Both are scums and that makes them perfect for each other. Li Yan is really loyal and even in death, he only wants the 2nd prince's sword ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) i feel like there's a special relationship between the two of them, and you can really see by the way they care for each other and I think that's beautiful.
THAT'S ALL Li Chengyin is a scum his only redeeming point is his pretty face LOL.
For the music,, I was waiting for Love Catastrophe because I really like that song but they only played it for like two times and it's not even a full song. lol
