I was lost after finishing The Story of Ming Lan and just wanted a light filler. Came across this and realised that Meng Zi Yi was the lead!!! (Fell in love with her after her Wen Qing portrayal)

TLDR; This was such a fun watch, it's short, light and sweet. While not perfect, it's such an easy watch and all the actors were amazing.

The Pros:

- Short! 24 episodes made it really easy to watch, everything moved really quickly
- Characters and Actors - really loved everyone in it. I saw some comments about the other characters taking up too much time and not enough for the leads, I actually really loved everyone else too. Princess Jiamin, Yun Han, Pei Jihuai, Yuan Wei... The Emperor... Of course it was also a eye candy galore with most of them and they were so cute!
- No Angst - After watching so many dramas, I came to realise that I dislike the break up, get back together, break up or obstacles x9999 stuff. I loved this because there wasn't much angst, friendships, relationships wise. Even the tiny angst with Princess Jiamin was super cute.
- Meng Ziyi (LOL)

The Cons:

- Bing mei ren overkill - hahaha, I think the portrayal of her as a bing mei ren was way too long, I actually really enjoyed her intelligence and fighting! Especially the scene with Princess Jiamin. But I get it, it was super cute at the end when she said it was her dream to be the most famous bing mei ren... lolol.
- Plot drops - I think they had many many great characters but there were some like touch and gos with some stories, such as Yun Han and the Du... Can't recall her name. I don't think it's that big of a con because it's 24 episodes. Maybe lesser storylines might have helped but also really loved everyone.

All in all, a good watch! Light hearted, fun!
