It really isn't bad
After reading reviews after finishing the show I can see why some people didn't enjoy it. People talked about the ai but i lowkey didn't notice it only for like a scene I was like is this ai?
Plot wise it was great the only flaw is that the male lead lowkey is a support like everyone else. I think if you watch this with the mindset that this is Chu Zhao story and her journey of life instead of whatever the summary had for the drama. You will def like it more and not end up disappointed
Some people also felt like the rivarly between xie yanfang and deng yi went on too long but I felt like it was realistic. I really enjoyed the story tho it was obviously dramaified for a few parts where I was like ummm holy plot armor but besides that i felt that it was fine and wasnt too bad. We honestly can't expect everyone to stay loyal during this time when power was a thing most people wanted.
I will say for some of the other characters besides Chu Zhao their stories were not fully executed or well was not fully closed as we didn't get to know more about their character
The acting was good from everyone I wont lie and everything else was great. I think with more budget they wouldve had more episodes and everything wouldnt be too fast but this is great if u want a girl boss type of cdrama. I would say similar to the FL in pursuit of jade, Chu Zhao is strong mentally she doesnt fight much but if u dont want to watch a weak fl then this is it.
Sorry if this isnt good I was trying to say a lot without spoiling but this is great if you dont want to watch like 40+ episodes of a cdrama
