Wow, took me long enough to finish the last two episodes lol. Kinda got distracted by another cdrama. First thing is the leads are legit perfect, sure the ML lied, but like legit nothing else is lacking from them. They remind me of modern drama's where the leads are perfect. Still I think they had to be perfect for this plot to work. What I am talking about is that they had a lot of bs moments where everything is solved by leads no matter what. But hey it's a drama so whatever, but they did a great job shaping the characters up as competent people. Second, the couples are amazing, all three of them were enjoyable. Especially the empress and the emperor they were a suprise to me, they were the most interesting at the end, the dynamic they had was unique compared to the other two. The empress also became my favourite character by the end. She was graceful and true to herself, she felt like a legit person compared to others. My favourite arc was when the FL knew she was lied to and split up with the ML and the ML still tried to be with her. That is when I realised how good the leads were at acting. Especially that scene where the FL stabbed the ML near the heart. The biggest weakness to this was the fact that they didn't finish the main problem and waited until the last episode to get rid of the villain. In return we only get to see the peaceful and happy ending for like 10 minutes. I think they ran out of budget lol. Overall very enjoyable, cam be recommended to people, and it can be rewatched, honestly every romance drama with a happy ending can be rewatched.
