Although the main theme of this drama is mystery and suspense, this feels like a comfort drama to me. A League of Nobleman have one of the most beautiful cinematography, with its lighting, rich and warm and deep color palette, foodie scenes and their pretty wide frames. They frequently shows the daily life of the people, and I like that a lot too.

Acting wise, Jing Boran half carried this show, I'm sorry. His portrayals of Lan Jue is just so natural and flowing. His beauty and elegance is so soothing and the way he smoothly changes from being soft and elegant to crazed and half mad with revenge is just too good to see.

Chemistry wise, Lan Jue with Mowen and Shulin gives off a great give and take dynamics. With Zhang Ping there's this feeling of on and off dynamic for me, like it's there but very slow and subtle,and sonetimes before you're done seeing it it just ends(?), people say it's because of the editing but I'm not sure.

Plot wise, it's pretty neat and simple, where they're solving this small cases, only to realize its building up to the big revelation that ties up everything. It's done very well. The episodes are also not too little, not too much, just the right amount.

If you like a simple historical chinese drama with a procedural mystery theme, this might be your show.
