I started watching this drama because of the lead actor Dylan Wang, whose films I've been watching recently. And it turned out that this drama is one of the best I've watched in recent times, despite the many cuts they had to make due to censorship!
Nice plot, although the beginning and the first episodes in the palace are too long ... it's good that then they moved the main characters outside the city and they could continue the development of the relationship.
The main couple is incredibly cute! They both had very good chemistry, it was felt as their love developed. Dylan Wang as Xiao Duo, at the beginning as stiff, unavailable, but with humorous moments, gradually under the influence of Bu Yin Lou, he turns into a sweet, in love man who wants to protect his beloved with all his might. He can joke, flirt and those beautiful scenes when he stares at his beloved BYL with his beautiful unusual eyes, something fantastic, I love this couple! I really regret that the censorship cut out so many nice, romantic scenes with them! And there was so much positive emotional charge in these scenes!
Chen Yu Qi also played very well, she was intelligent, clever and cheerful. Her relationship with the lead lead was fantastic. They supported each other. I didn't know this actress before, but I really liked her. I hope they will play together in another drama someday.
The secondary characters also did very well. Fans that the plot also had a lot of funny elements, it did the whole drama well.
I lost the most nerves because of the character of Murong Gao Gong, the one who was initially undervalued, unsuccessful and fixated on memories of a girl who once helped him in his childhood, a prince, and then a cynical, psychopathic emperor fixated on an imaginary unrequited feeling for his childhood savior WAS. Ruthless if anyone opposed him. Peter Ho played it so well I wanted to strangle him. It's a pity that he took revenge on the main characters until the very end.
I didn't like that the solution was rushed and in the last episode. Fortunately, it worked out well for the main leads. But there are no scenes between the two main leads after they split up and the final scene ends with the main leads running out of town, but it's unclear if they ran out or not because the episode ends here. I know there was a scene of the main leads out of town on a hill in a beautiful romantic setting, and I don't know why they cut it. This scene would have ended the whole thing beautifully. So I am sorry about that. I recommend it for shaving.
