The story is intriguing and acting was excellent. Throughout, I was left wondering what would be the heroine's eventual choice.

Being a sucker for the underdog, I was rooting for the 9th lord. He was rich and powerful but had obvious inferior complex because of his disability. Hu Ge has this doleful look that melts one's heart - he is an incredibly outstanding actor. Not many actors can match up to that standard.

I did not rewatch this drama like I did for the Nirvana in Fire, Ten Mile Blossom and Fu Yao, but I would certainly recommend watching for the first time.
