Good until Ep24 :(

Spoiler review here:

Started off really really well! We had a somewhat psychotic/ playing dumb ML, a desperate for revenge badass FL and an extremely interesting plot setting! The ML was then revealed to be mistakenly wronged- framed for crimes he did not commit. This I felt was revealed wayyy to early (ep 3 or 4). Could have played with this idea until prob ep8.

Lots of fighting scenes to keep you in suspense. The basic plot is nothing new, but conspiracies and maliciousness of the characters are enough to keep you on the edge of your seat. Somewhere in the middle, they get lost in and live in a small village for awhile. Here I felt the inconsistency of the ML character- he suddenly became such a puppy lol and to me didn’t suit his character.

Once the Crown Prince was found to be the ultimate mastermind behind everything, the drama started going downhill. Firstly, his punishment was WAYYY TOO EASY!! Should have at least dedicated one whole episode to torture him and make him pay heavily and publicly for his crimes. Then the whole story shifts to Xiyan, which I found so stupid with the witch doctor shaking her shoulders and hands to summon the gods lol. I understand the writers had to rebuild the town of Qingzhou, so that Murong Jinghe can atone for his guilt, but the Xiyan story was just unnecessary.

The whole romance storyline with The King of Great Yan and Concubine Yan was eeelch!! Disgusting- like grandfather 60s and young girl early 20s which I suppose was the norm in those days. But still… I just had to ff those scenes.

The ending - [SPOILER] is a sad one boooo. Sigh.. probably rightfully so. But I was glad they were there for each other till the end. The chemistry between leads was great, two very intense kiss scenes ;) The character I felt the most tragic was Qingyan- jinghe’s trustee bodyguard!! True and loyal till the end, saved his life numerous times.

They did try to add some humour and light heartedness to the whole drama, but didn’t find it that humorous. Should have just stuck to romance and thriller suspense. Anyhow, a good watch with an unfortunate last third not up to expectations.

This had so much potential!

This is one of my first reviews ever, but I felt the need to write about this so bad.
The first couple of episodes were incredibly well done and enticing; however, it slowly starts the go down. The story started really interesting and the cinematography was incredible! The shots and the acting what really kept me going for this one. And I really liked that the story did not go in circles and issues were resolved as quickly (sometimes too quickly).
Yet the writing through the end was really upsetting. Resolving the issues that started the story was a great move but stretched far too long. It bored me so much. It was sad to see that such good drama was butchered with the writing at the end.
What really kept me on the show was the acting! It was truly a pleasure to watch the FL and ML (especially him) act so genuinely. Every time ML had blurry eyes, right on point, I had blurry eyes. I liked their acting, I would watch everything with them in it. I cannot praise this enough.
How I hope that one day I will be able to see not annoying acting with not annoying writing!

It had potential but lost it

Mei lin lost her parents in a fire plotted by one of the royal family.
Jinghe has been wrongly accused of causing the massacre of Qingzhou
Both decided to work together when Meilin found out who the real culprit is.
Honestly, the drama started very well! The back and forth schemes between the crown prince and Jinghe had me on the edge of my seat. Unfortunately, after the big bad wolf was taken down, the drama seemed to have fallen off for me. lol
A lot of the actors played their part well:
Liu Xue Yi became a psycho maniac guy to a loving husband. I've only watched one of his dramas thus far, but this drama definitely showcase the variety of techniques he's able to bring to the drama. His eyes has so much emotion in them, he didn't need to talk. LOL This is what I think is a really good actor who can move their facial muscles even as cold, stoic person. Not many actors can do this, Liu is an exception.

Wu Jin Yan also did quite well. i guess I watched too many of her dramas since Yanxi Palace and this drama just felt similar. Her acting is neither terrible nor pheneomal here. It didn't have much of a wow factor for me. I think her action scenes were beautiful though, I loved every action stunt she displayed.

One of the outstanding actors I would say in this dramas has to be Baron Chen who played Xuanliu, the crown prince.
Maybe I am biased as I've been a fan of his acting since Fated to Love You (classic) and damn... I must say he did a PHENOMENAL job as the villain. The variety of emotions he has displayed from innocence, anger, love, etc. His acting had me pausing during the climax of the drama because it was thrilling and NERVE-RACKING to see who would win. For once, I am satisfied with a villain's death.

The king and Princess Yan's relationship was cute - albeit I can't help but think in the back of my mind how wrong it is. I had to constantly remind myself ancient China had concubines as young as her.. and it was fine back then. Regardless, I did like the King in this drama because he seems to have emotion that no other kings would displayhe was quite gentle and caring.

Once again, this drama started off quite strong, it had purpose and when that purpose was done -there was about ...6 episodes left and I just skipped most of the scenes. I thought the drama should've ended at episode 26 instead of 32. However, I suppose the leads had to wrap up loose ends with Qingzhou, and their relationship.
Would I recommend it?
If you like action scenes, thrill, schemes, sure. But if you don't want to waste your time, I'd suggest stopping at episode 26 or so. LOL

Kill me…”love” me…bore me,…completely lost me

This series was unique from other “revenge/conspiracy” shows in that early on it revealed the villain. Thus the direction of the main plot was exposing his evil deeds. Sometimes it can be difficult for this type of story to work because the enemies of the leads is no longer a mystery which eliminates much of the intrigue in the plot. This was painfully apparent here.

At times the story could be interesting, especially in the beginning but it started to drag due to nothing much happening half way through the series. Or something would happen and it would drag out too long.

The conspiracy plot just wasn’t that good and the revenge plot was non existent. The love story between the leads was good until it wasn’t. Going completely off the rails into angst for no other reason other than drama for drama’s sake. The 2nd “love” story between the Crown Prince and the General was ridiculous at best. He was a horrible person who’d been obsessed with her since he was a teen while she was in love with the ML, Jinghe. She vehemently rejected the Crown Prince’s marriage proposals then suddenly after one major event claimed he was her “beloved.” It made absolutely no sense as there was no built up whatsoever to her falling in love with the him. Literally one episode she was vehemently rejecting him. The next episode she was reluctantly accepting his proposal (mind you after he drugged and planned to r*pe her but changed his mind out of honor towards her RME), then the next episode she was claiming him as her beloved with whom she was deeply in love. It was ridiculous.

Moreover , she had to be the worst general I’d ever seen. Though she held herself to a high standard of goodness and integrity when she learned the Crown Prince killed thousands of innocents due to his personal vendetta against his bother she slapped him a couple of times then resumed the relationship. She continued to “love” and comfort him, and allowed him to be by her side despite his monstrous behavior. She had much potential but unfortunately she was turned into a mindless pushover driven by “love” instead of a smart badass who could love but be intolerant of evil and thus not hesitate to strike it down.

The show started to go south around episode 20 with some senseless twists in the story but nosedived into absurdity around episode 22 which is where I dropped this series.

The actors were really good in this. The leads had nice chemistry but the love stories and the conspiracies failed to live up to their potential.

They promised darkness, we received.... Idk what even at this point

I saw a review saying that if you're not a hardcore fan of any lead, you probably won't finish this. Well, I am a huge fan of Liu Xueyi and Baron Chen and I can not finish this title. I really, really wanted to, but I can't bring myself to.

The story. We were promised a deranged prince and a top assassin wanting a blood revenge on the deranged prince. I was expecting a back and forth, Mei Lin sneaking into Jinghe's closest guards, trying hard to kill him, Jinghe noticing her efforts, but deciding not to kill her just yet because she's useful and then starting feelings somewhere mid story. The derangement of Murong Jinghe faded within the first episodes and we got a wronged man desperate to avenge his buddies and clear his name. Which, I would not mind, I like seeing a smiley, fluffy Liu Xueyi on screen, but this is not what we were promised. I really wanted a deranged prince Liu Xueyi, darkness, ravens, no hope. After the first few episodes, this drama fades into court affairs and power struggle with the background of taking revenge on the true culprit. Again, not what we were promised.

The casting. I think the casting is as good as it gets. Seeing Baron Chen as a great scheming villain and Liu Xueyi as his brother - very fine choice. I personally dislike characters like General Yin - expressionless and just robotic, and the sweet summer children siblings duo. The Xiyan Prince learned at least something, but princess? Please.... Nonetheless, all the actors did great.

The soundtrack. Pretty basic, OSTs rarely stuck with me.

There were some pretty amazing and artistic scenes and frames but these also faded with the dark storyline. Especially when Murong Jinghe is parading through the city and the people are throwing stuff at him and he then takes a bite from the bun (I think it was a bun at least). And then in episode 8ish, when Mei Lin pulled Murong Jinghe below the fabrics being dried. Very beautiful.

Other than this.... It's hard to find more positives to this drama. Idk who to recommend this to, the reviews are split too. Those of us who expected darkness and ravens don't really like this drama plot, those who watched for enemies to lovers seem to love it. I think that's it.

Drama yang sempurna

Killmeloveme
Sejauh ini aku makin penasaran, makin dibuat tertarik sama cerita dan plotwist yang dihadirkan. Tidak terlalu berat dan juga tidak ringan, sangat pas. Wu jinyan disatukan dengan Liu xueyi, dua drama mereka sangat bagus tidak heran mereka berakting dengan luar biasa. Aku tidak ingin spoiler tapi aku cuman bisa ajak kalian Nonton dan ngerasain di tatap sama murong jinghe secara ugal-ugalan. Kya......
Karakter dalam drama ini dibawakan dengan sangat baik, set dan lokasi aku tidak pernah kecewa dengan drama China . Mereka punya hengdian studio dengan alamnya yang mempesona, tanpa cgi kurasa itu sudah cukup menakjubkan.

Aku sangat suka genre yang dibawakan, love this drama

=> Beautiful, tough, sad, ... and beautifully interpreted ｡ﾟ(*´□`)ﾟ｡

PLOT: To avenge the death of her family (and the 10,000 inhabitants of her town), the FL has been trained for 10 years (killing + martial arts) in the Shadow Army. She get part of the 100 beauties sent by the neighboring country, Xiyan, to kill the 3rd Prince (the ML). She lives with him, they share adventures, fight against the plots of the Crown Prince, etc. The Prince of Xiyan (whom she helped when he fled, the ML2) love her, and takes advantage of the circumstances (coup,FL's poisoning) to make her his Crown Princess.

+++ A magic CL (Liu Xue Yi & Wu Jin Yan) and lots of excellent actors (Bi Wen Jun, Baron Chen, ...)
+++ Effective production, with sets, costumes, fight scenes, lights, OST, ... at the TOP.
+++ Quite dark story, very catchy during the first 20 episodes BUT### Last 10 boring episodes, with inconsistencies and unjustifiable offbeat behavior

### Part about Xiyan unrealistic, incongruous. I know that there have been mad kings in history, but this is delirium.

The last 2 episodes are moving, magnificent (and sad) and demonstrate the immense talent of Liu Xue Yi (I'm waiting for his next series :). It was magnificent, and I'm glad I watched it, but I'll not rewatch it, it was to sad !

************************************************************
PLOT: Pour venger la mort de sa famille (et des 10000 habitants de sa ville), la FL est entrainée depuis 10 ans (tuer +arts martiaux) dans 1 armée fantôme. Elle s'insère dans les 100 beautés envoyées par le pays voisin, Xiyan , pour tuer le 3e Prince (le ML). Elle habite chez lui, ils partagent des aventures, luttent contre les complots du Prince Héritier, etc. Le Prince de Xiyan (qu'elle a aidé ds sa fuite, le ML2) est amoureux, et profite des circonstances (coup d'état, empoisonnement de la FL) pr en faire sa Princesse Héritière.

+++ Un CL d'enfer (Liu Xue Yi & Wu Jin Yan) et bcp d'excellents acteurs (Bi Wen Jun, Baron Chen, ...)
+++ Réalis° efficace, avec décors, costumes, scènes de fight, lumières, OST, au TOP.
+++ Story assez sombre, très accrocheuse pendant les 20 premiers épisodes ### 10 derniers épisodes boring, avec incohérences et comportements décalés injustifiables

### Partie sur Xiyan irréaliste, incongrue. Je sais que des rois fous, il y en a eu dans l'histoire, mais là, ça touche le délire.

MAIS les 2 derniers épisodes sont émouvants, magnifiques (et tristes) et démontrent l'immense talent de Liu Xue Yi (j'attends ses prochaines séries :).

=> Beau, dur, triste, ... et magnifiquement interprété ｡ﾟ(*´□`)ﾟ｡

I loveeeee

The Male Lead is just an embodiment of acting! The FL is also an amazing actor! I love the movie so much and I can’t get over it! It started very well and though I didn’t expect the end to turn out the way it did, I still enjoyed it and consoled myself that it is just a movie and the actors are doing well well afterwards.
The chemistry between ML and FL? Perfect! They truly gave it their all and I really love it for them. They deserve all the love and support they could get in this movie and I hope it takes them places and heights they never imagined they would reach in their careers. Well done guys🥰🥰🥰
