Its such a good storyline..witb poor execution, editing, direction and subpar acting.
A heavy plot like this but the writers don't even develop the characters enough for tge audience to connect with them and experience the journey.
It felt like a lot was edited out so it was just a 'huh okay ' moment in every scene.
It's supposed to be angst but all i did was raise my brow cause i couldn't feel nothing but disbelief at squeezing alot in the first 7 episodes which could have been stretched and acted out well to give me chest pains enough to throw up frok suffering.

I ended up not caring for any characters.
This is the second Xing fei period drama that has fallen short.
Lets stick to modern drama where she excells at please.
