Disappointed

I watched this show because of the good reviews but was sorely disappointed. First 10 episode was good, then slowly it went downhill. The ML is so selfish and uses people without qualms. He lies so many times and FL keeps forgiving him. Reminds me of some who can’t break away from toxic relationships. A man trying to marry a girl he fancies by lying and manipulating is just unacceptable. ML said, SYL must not die, anyone can die but not her. What about the father and sister, whose lives depended on Su Xuan recovering? And he lets his father die for ‘greater good’? After the scene where he convinces Emperor Ai (harmless guy) to commit suicide, I lost all interest but continued watching for the supporting characters. I liked Wen Si Yuan and Yin Chang Ge and looked forward to watching their scenes more than the main leads. Then Yin Chang Ge was killed off, which was totally unnecessary. The romance between Yin Chang Ge and Jiang Er was not even believable. Two teenagers who spent a little time together decided to get married? They looked so awkward together. And why did Jiang Er gave him the poison? Shouldn't she wish him to live well? I'll never understand the selfishness shown as love in this show. Overall, only the lighting and music was good, everything else was just average.
