There’s a reason this series was cut from 70 to 36 episodes and it’s because the plot sucks big time. Both Mo Xin and Mo Wan were idiots, together with King Su who was the most wishy washy Male lead ever. Idiot! The writers threw every cliche into this and still couldn’t make a decent enough drama. Ironically, the only character that I liked was the Emperor mostly because his motivations made sense even if his actions were despicable. For those comparing this to Yanxi Palace, you must have bumped your heads. If you’re looking for Palace drama with a witty female lead then watch Love Like the Galaxy.
