It's a feast for the eyes, that's it.
Okay, the title already sums up what I hate in this drama. The central plot revolves a woman who needs to disguise as a boy BUT SHE DOESN'T EVEN TRY THAT HARD?!! Yeah, I know it's fictional but she looks too beautiful to be a man and even her makeup can still be seen. The acting also makes me cringe? Idk at first I was okay with it but it just feels like I don't feel any emotions to both of the leads. Don't get me wrong I know the ML did great in Go Ahead but I think his acting here feels less than that drama. Also, I love Ju Jingyi but her acting here feels off. (Maybe it was just the fact that she doesn't look like a man for me). Anyways, their chemistry is great so I gave them points for that.I watched this drama because of the leads, all of them including the other MLs as I am also a fan of them.. Well, the investigation, the story is good but yeah, it just doesn't really made me feel something special about it.

Descent Drama (Yes, just descent)
I remember being so excited for this drama to air, only to drop it after a few episodes and it takes a while until I eventually finished it all. The only downside of this drama is the writing and execution of the last few episodes. The ending feels rush and so out of place. Anyways, love Zhao Lusi though, she made me watched this but I'm really not a fan of the ML's acting. I think Lusi overshadowed him, idk. Overall, it a nice drama but I won't watched it again.Vond je deze recentie nuttig?

Best Short Chinese Drama Ever Made
The amount of details they put in this drama is so great. This is by far tops the list of the best short chinese dramas I watched.Best Points:
1. The acting was great especially the FL. I had already watched some of her previous works and this drama for me is her best work. She did great in portraying the innocent teen until she became the Empress. You could really see and feel her change. However, the ML might seems to be overshadowed by FL's acting but for me it didn't. Both of them did good in conveying the melancholic theme of the drama. I hope they will pair up in a future drama with a happy ending..
2. THE DETAILS! Yes, the details really gives me goosebumps because IT WAS SOOOO WELL-MADE. The people behind this drama really put every of their creative powers to make this. It is also straight to the point with no plot holes. Every episode puts me in the edge of the seat and makes me cry.
3. The OST are perfect in every scene they put it. That's it because I might cry if I hear the song again, remembering every bits of what happened in this drama.
4. Although it's a low budget drama, it doesn't feels like it is. Well, I mean it is more perfect than those high budget dramas with crappy writings.
Overall, 10/10. So perfect, so tragic, so love it! Yes, it's a sad and tragic ending but for me it's also happy because the story gave us a lesson that historical facts isn't what you think it really is. And the ML proving to everyone that the FL wasn't really the villain in the story makes it already a happy ending for me. Maybe in their next life, the star crossed lovers will have their own happy ending.
