Great acting, confusing plot
36 episodes. 10min each. 2 seasons.First time watching 10-minute episodes. That was not a satisfactory experience. At times, I thought I skipped episodes because it made no sense.
- The third Prince was at times evil and others a lover. He loved Qi yet murdered her. He loves Xuan yet sets her up to be raped
- finally, the Fifth Prince becomes Emperor and makes promises to share rooms with Li… yet she disappears for a years
- out of the out-the-blue King of poison becoming her mother
- Qi/Li was a maid but a kung-fu master and genius doctor
- the mystic master coming out of the blue
- the second Prince who existed only to be killed
So many things made no sense or were left blank or ridiculous.
I want to highlight that, while the performances of the actors and actresses were great, I couldn't help but notice a stark contrast between the physical appearances of the main couple. She looked like a mature woman while he looked like a young man. Unfortunately, this was the only drama where the female lead had a prominent role, despite being in the industry since 2021. She deserves better. My guess is that her voice and physical appearance don't seem to be a good fit for young adult dramas which are the most popular, as they prefer a high-pitched teen voice and a youthful face. Perhaps she would be better suited for contemporary dramas. It is sad because she is an excellent actress.
The male lead was outstanding, but his appearance was more fitting for teenage or young adult dramas. While their acting was great, the chemistry between the two leads felt off, probably because they didn't match well.
I strongly believe that adult actors should look like adults, not like teenagers. Sadly, we don't see this often in costume dramas.
Overall, it was a watchable drama, but I don't see myself rewatching it anytime soon.

Pretty good for a short drama.
I love the fact that their marital life was realistic. It was a good development.I really like the fact that FL wasn't the typical woman/child we see in so many drama...
The story is not perfect, but when we compare this short drama with short drama from the same category, we can appreciate the storyline, and developing of the storytelling.

Wang yu zi and wen moyan factor did the job for me
I am so damn impressed by wang yu zi's performance in every period drama .. this man is born to be the ML of period dramas PERIOD !he captures the essences of his character on a different level and blessed with his looks je actually gives that kind and generous emperor like vibes.
As far as wen moyan is concerned,she is a terrific actress I saw her performance in 'your trap' and her role was so sensuous and seductive. Whereas in this one she is portraying a cute and lovely girl ( with revenge feeling on the side ways) .. Though I personally felt her chemistry with weng yu zi was outstanding better than with any other actor.
The side characters (cast) was equally talented and good-looking especially the female characters ( Xu'ar, li' sister, chinqui,chen'mother)
The story itself was quite interesting and the way its plot is executive made it even more addicting. The pace was consistent and there were no boring and unnecessary scenes. Though this season doesn't unfolds a lot about the conspiracies and is more centred on leng ki and xuan'er's character.
There were comparatively less fight scenes and the choreography of these fight scenes was not impressive but it's okay, as that wasn't even the demand of this story.
Opening sound track was good, very soothing and quite apt for the theme.
Over all this was a great drama that I can recommend with holding back .. you can define give it a try (it also has season 2)

cute and short
I started watching this show in English subtitles on YouTube from March 7th to March 15th. I would say it is a 10-12-minute show and I can definitely finish the Chinese drama show. This show does have season 1 and season 2 which contains all the episodes. I would say I really enjoyed the opening song of the show. In the beginning when Qi was running away but it doesn't explain why she is running away. Did Qi do something bad and that's why she is running away which I don't have any clue for the answer that she did? I would say the way Chen stabbed Qi was brutal. These episodes are in season 1. There are two things that I don't quite understand is when Li is in the wedding carrier in episode 1 when she refers to her as Qi and in episode 11 is when Xuan asks her about her childhood when she refers to her as Li. I find it funny how Xuan was pretending to fall down. I found is season 1 episode 5, season 1 episode 10, season 1 episode 11, season 2 episode 2, season 2 episode 5, and season 2 episode 17.Cet avis était-il utile?
This drama is actually amazing
I know it's not very free in China to film real kisses abd caressing in bed but when some short dramas actually provide it I can't not to be feeling flattering and that's more than I could ever ask for and the story isn't even bad it's actually very interesting and entertaining abd the way I watch it it actually have normal subtitles and the ML and FL are very lovely actors aside the most mesmerizing kisses abd bed acting abd the FL have very adult character which is as it should be a d ML is quite handsome as well and his acting is actually satisfying as it's usually with every single ML but FL is surprisingly in this drama very serious s d mature womanCet avis était-il utile?
