Ci Sha finally gets the girl! I loved this show; loved the characters, sets, costumes/styling, the acting, the music, most of the plot. The political aspect of the show was a little more subtle at first, but overtook everything in the last 5 episodes. Does it make sense? Not really, but it delivered action packed fight scenes as well as emotionally. All I did was cry in those last few episodes lol. The ending feels incomplete, unfortunately. Another episode or two to really wrap things up would have been nice, if only to see a peaceful reunion for our couple.

Speaking of Jin Zhao and Yan Yun. Wow. I loved them so much, and they only got better once they were married🥹🙏🏻 Yan Yun is so devoted and intense yet tender with Jin Zhao, I really loved Ci Sha’s performance of the character. That scene when she was kidnapped and he rescued her is insane. There is so much restraint in his demeanor, so much tension in the way he positions his hand as he enters that shed—like, I 100% believed that he was 0.2 seconds away from snapping and going batshit crazy because Jin Zhao was tied up and almost trafficked (He is definitely part of the #ILoveMyWife club). Every moment between them felt so good, so sweet, so equal. I think they might be one of my favorite couples ever, just wow. Mutual devotion looks good on them. Loved it whenever they hugged too, Jin Zhao disappears in his embrace as he envelops her with his arms, just … big sigh🫂. Ren Min as Jin Zhao was a delight. She was so sassy in the beginning, and I love how she matured over the course of the show and yet still kept teasing Yan Yun (got to keep that man on his toes!). Her character really felt like a teenage girl who slowly grew into a young woman… I really wish we could have gotten more of her #greedy… I just love my doe eyed princess😪😪

The show isn’t perfect by any means, but I loved every second of it and will probably rewatch it just to reexperience the love story all over again because they were just that great.
