Story of Yanxi Palace is a Chinese drama about the story of Wei Yingluo/Imperial Noble Consort Ling/Empress Xiaoyichun who was a consort of the Qianlong Emperor and the mother of the Jiaqing Emperor. The story is about Wei Yingluo's journey from being a low ranking palace maid to the most powerful women in the imperial harem. These types of plots aren't original but the portrayal of the characters and the way the story is told makes this drama amazing. The cast was amazing. I loved watching the interactions between the different characters. The villains were great. The soundtrack was great and fit the drama very well. The costumes in this drama are beautifully made. I wish that I could wear it but I wouldn't look good in it nor do I have the money to buy it. I would totally recommend this drama.
