I'm a fan of the male lead Xing zhao lin ! he's so cute when he smiles and when he acts playfully naive. Just to give you a warning! if you are here for the romance between Xing zhao lin and female lead, its only at the last three episode. There are way too many times where he tries to kiss her and fails lol!!!

Background- The basic background is that the female lead is trying to solve the case of her teacher's murder. She meets the male lead, Long er. The story then gets super complicated. She tries to solve the reason why her teacher dies and unravels more mystery as she searches along.

Story- To me the story starts off at a weird place.It starts off with the female lead and male lead bickering and having some conflict. Then due to her teacher getting imprisoned, they get to know each other a little better. After that the teacher mysteriously dies and then thus begins trying to unravel what happen. On her way she becomes partially blind when she tried to uncover more about her teacher's case. ( to be honest that part was kinda lame, and didn't do much for the story).As they began to unravel more is when the story started to not make sense and develop in a weird way. The younger evil dude does a lot to interfere with the female lead's investigation.

Characters: ( there are many characters in this story)
Female lead- is skilled in playing the gu zheng/ is a musician. ( the actress that plays her , i find her pretty:) )
Male lead- aka Long er ( because he's number 2 in the Long family, their family owns some sort of restaurant thing? )

Other characters-
Teacher of the female lead- A good musician. He dies pretty early on and everyone is trying to solve his case.
Older Long Brother - I like him! he's the same actor who was in Song of glory! he is a noble and loyal to this family . His profession is a police/detective from the palace.
3rd brother - He's cute and carefree, and is a Wu lin master.
Younger evil dude - his role kinda confused me! first he likes the female lead but wants to kill her but doesnt and then takes another woman to be his wife, but at that time he still realizes he likes the female lead. Of course , he does all kinds of evil!
Older evil dude named Shi - I think he is the king's advisor, he also has a sister who is an empress.

I can't believe the older brother and his girl got a kiss before the female and male lead did! lol It was really cute how they each got another half. The relationship between the brothers was really good.

Romance- I find the male lead and female lead both to be really cute ! wish they had more scenes to develop/ show their relationship more. It would of definitely strengthen their chemistry. They definitely did but the romantic and sweet scenes were more towards the end , like the last three episodes. In terms of romance, it didnt meet my expectation, the intro song gave a lot away, and i was expecting more lol. however the two brother's relationship was good and had cute scenes and development.

Overall not a bad watch, not the most interesting but can get you through!
