Finally a new historical drama. Looks like it will be fun watching these attractive people interact. Just finished the first episode and it has all the elements needed. Strong, resilient heroine, good looking princes, intriguing backstory. Other than the son of the family she's intended to marry into haven't seen any of the usual evil antagonist.

OMG he's found himself. I guess he'll stay undercover at the Rong's but how will he be able to solve the crime from there? I couldn't believe when another creepy look-a-like showed up. Turns out he's also got evil plans up his sleeve, but not the mysterious bracelet.

Lu has a way of getting under everybody's skin. Bao is testing grandma's patience. All the sisters are venomous, except the youngest who seems to suffer from birth defects. What the secret there, and how does the bracelet imply danger. The monk is a fine-looking man, seems virtuous, but must realize he's not the favorite so why stay in the race? The cousin is a sweet dolt, the scholar has no oomph, the husband-in-waiting is pure evil, his sidekick has been reduced to limping along, if there are any other still in the running they have become faceless. Only a quarter of the way in, where can it all lead?

Six episodes in and the plethora of suitors have become faceless except for a few bad characters at the top of the food chain. The scholar and the cousin should have their own BL drama. Lu Fu Sheng serves up a tantilizingly comedic courtship of The Tea Lady. Everybody's acting chops are mincemeat but the production qualities and the storyline take us into swooning territory. Keep serving up this refreshing to the palate brew.

This drama is a beauty pageant. After episode 2 countless suitors, Rong sisters and maids have been introduced and everyong is peerless in the looks department. Many are lacking in the morals department though. I'll keep watching to see if this drama is 'my cup of tea'.

just finished the drama. I liked the two sweet leads who got a second chance at love. The evil one was motivated by a love denied and revenge to repay a ruler who took that love and then threw it away. He was to warped and relentlessly cruel for my taste. Appreciated that the second prince was such a good guy and got his rewards at the end: found his mother and got the girl. The rest of the crew were good sidekicks adding a lot of color to the story.

I think I'm going to quit now (ep 9). This drama has not lived up to expectations. It meanders along at a snail's pace. The constant conflict between departments gets tiresome as does the bellowing of the chief. As much as I would like, neither leads are holding my attention and the case investigations are going nowhere. The side characters are not making much of an impression either.

I'm only a short way in and am watching it for Wang Xing Yue. He's doing a good job in his conflicted character but the police procedures, like the need to stop tainting evidence at the crimes scenes has me baffled. The coroner is always there first and has copious details to relate. No one wears protective clothing, tapes off the area, takes fingerprints and puts evidence in protective, sterile bags. What gives?

Just watched one ep and a bit before bed last night and was confused at whats what and whos who. I think I'll have to start over as I usually like Chen Yi dramas.

Can't wait to see this drama. I really like Bai Yu in Parallel World and other past work he's done.

Yes, and she was not alone. There was her brother, his double, her mother and all the people who close their eyes when women are victimized by violence.

I gave this a very high rating because it is a great drama about a horrific subject. These women fought back against a villain and his enablers. Thankfully, they won to go on to enjoy their lives. Where is that incredible man, Jin So Baek, that made this all possible?

I'm in panic mode most of the time. Domestic violence is so commen and is suffered in silence most of the time. Of course, one has to be desperate to think murder is a solution, but I would like the two women to get away with it. This is made harder now that that creep Kang has entered the picture to blackmail and violate them all over again. Jin So Baek has become an overarching character and with his expertise could help them get out of this dilemma. I sincerely hope he gets it done before all that smoking kills him.

I'm having to take it slow. Just finished episode 12 and wish I could get at more of the episodes quickly. Chen Xiao is so good in this type of role. All the actors are doing a great job. While some of the financial dealings leave me muddled, it all moves to quickly that it's exciting even if I don't know what just happened. Like the stock market which I can't fathom either. We learned this time greed is NOT good. Love the Chang father and daughter - long may they travel the roads of commerce.' Now that Gu is 'free' a new chapter begins. Can't wait.

Wholly loved it. Some things were inexplicable. Why bring hammers to a fight when there are modern weapons available? Only the young kid brought explosives and managed to leave fiends in the dust. I understand the ceremonial imporance of Dilraba's sword, the leader with the whip and the 'hound' regiment but beyond these artifacts why not update your armaments. The background that the ML brought to the story was important. The FL's vocation to her art when she was not on her historically inherited mission was handled brilliantly. Their slowly perculating attraction and eventual trusting devotion was the centre of the drama that anchored the fiendishly hard to believe story set in modern times.

Only 5 episodes in but it's crammed full of actions and events to last a lifetime already. Actors are great a portraying their characters. Only hope this drama doesn't start becoming static.

Ep. 26/27 First time spent at home to solidify their relationship with a little back to back, belly to belly action. Then comes a sinister message. A challenge made - a challenge accepted. A really suspenful undertaking follows as the companions set out on a long treacherous trek.

That was a doozy of an episode (8). Looking forward to more lovey dovey times. The fledgling's poison is weak so they should be able to make and antidote from it. Still, itlooks like the Left State Councillor has more bad deeds up his sleeve.

This drama is totally engrossing. I care little about the ratings. Besides, isn't it the number of people watching that should count? Disappointed that there are only eight episodes left to watch.
