Good plot. Suspenseful, Good acting generally. Impressive battle formations and battle scenes.

Zhang Zi Yi as Wang Xuan and as always is mesmerising with her beauty and good acting. Though acting as a 16 year old, even in real life she is 42, I feel she still fits and looks like a teenager of that age. For one who is that young in the drama, she portray a mature, smart and cunning character with deep insight about the schemings and intrigues of palace life.

Her opposite played by Zhou Yi Wei as Xiao Qi is equally impressive with his look, demeanour and strong personality carries himself well as a general commanding 200,000 frontier troops.

So far, seen up to 13 episodes. Looking forward eagerly for the rest and to see how the story ends. I am sure there are still lots of surprises, set-backs and victories along the way.
