Hillariously Sweet Romance
This is by far the best Cdrama I've watched and the only one I've rated 10/10 so far. I'm not saying it was perfect, the ending should have definitely been longer. Other then that, the drama was essentially PERFECT and had a satisfying ending.The drama was very consistent throughout. I was afraid that the comedy aspect would go down or completely go away as many Chinese, especially Chinese historical dramas tend to do. But it didn't. And the comedy was the BEST part of this drama, especially with the main leads and their servants/guards. No matter what the situation is, and no matter how serious the character may be (especially the ML), there is always some comedy. Not some cringeworthy jokes, but some genuinely stupid (or even serious) actions or over the top reactions that just really get to you. The misunderstandings were usually hilarious, it didn't usually lead to drama, it just led to some strange situations. And even when there is drama or some argument between the main leads, I wouldn't say it was serious because the retaliation always lead to hilariously embarrassing situations.
This is the one Cdrama (even Kdrama) were I didn't feel ANY second hand embarrassment at all. I hate the feeling of second hand embarrassment, but there wasn't any. The comedy was so well executed that you would not feel embarrassed for the characters, you'd just laugh along with everything.
One thing I loved about the FL is that she didn't straight up fall in love with the ML and forget that she's in a screenplay she wrote and is dreaming about. She, no matter what, never forget where she was and who she is (or is playing). I love that misunderstandings lead to the ML actually falling for the FL. Her actions of trying to save herself from the early death she wrote for her character lead to the ML slowly falling for her after he believes she has a crush on him.
I liked the pace of the story (just not the quick ending), and I loved how the FL slowly realises she actually likes ML. The story would have had to been a lot shorter if this took less time, either that, or their would have needed to be drama to separate the FL and ML.
This was a really good historical Chinese drama where I loved almost all the characters. The parents are surprisingly some of my favourite charecters, which is surprising for a historical Cdrama, but if just made it so much better, and I really LOVED the eldest sister, the two servants and the FL's mother was EVERYTHING.
Also (spoiler): Loved the Mulan reference. Love that Mulan is the ML's mother, making the whole concept of his Patriarchal city really ironic because his mother is the biggest badass of both city's.

A love story with one of the sweetest endings I've ever seen.
A love story with a lot of misunderstandings, but with one of the cutest endings I've ever seen. Zhao Lu Si brought out the maximum of her character. Quian Quian is often annoying and, in fact, she has mostly self-inflicted problems, because she wants to stick to the original story, but overall, she's a very lovable character.Ding Yu Xi's acting talent is incredible. perfectly personifies the jealous, super-cute husband and the uncontroversial leader. I can’t think of an actor in this drama who didn’t get the maximum out of his character.
But it's also true that this is the first drama where I was most concerned about a third-rate character, Su Mu's fate. Quan Pei Lun's performance touched me the most, as he does not feel worthy of love, but in the end, he finds enough strength and confidence to accept it, and be with the one he loves. Su Mu and the first lady has the most beautiful love in this whole story.

Playful and light story
I finally watched the drama, but now it reminds me of The Eternal love 3, where the situation is also reversed. Women rule, and men are subdued., Despite the first impression, which was not very positive, thanks to the wiggly and playful Zhao LuSi, the drama now seems quite interesting and fun. Although that relationship between men and women is still a little weird for me. I vote for equality.Basically, the plot is simple, there are comic elements and jumping situations. A light drama to spend the evening and relax.

The term "tiger" is a synonym for "idiot". "Idiot and rose", is the author's intention?
I can only follow the enthusiastic comments here to a limited extent.The underlying idea of the story is really good, but:
For many episodes we are tormented by by illogical, childish and destructive behavior of FL.
She almost shows a clinical picture of infantilism.
Her voice, habitus, behaviors, intellectual capacity are annoying and hardly bearable.
The most beautiful and capable woman of this show is second princess, who also loves the ML. But he doesn't want her because he loves the human squeaky duck. Chen Chu Chu is then also turned to evil because the poor story line wants that.
The screenwriter probably also finds it logical that after humiliations and rejections in many episodes by FL, the well-intentioned ML takes only seconds to forgive her when she regrets everything so very very much.
Many men are obviously in love with FL. But why? What about Cry-Baby is attractive?
And later she still hasn't learned anything. After the maximum shameful, unbelievable justified, betrayal of him, price question, how long does Miss QianQuian need for his forgiveness?
But what real man would ever trust his ex-lover again, who, in his darkest hour, is messing arond with his worst enemy, who, after humiliating treatment, sends him into exile in chains?
Teasing lovers do this to each other? It's Funny? Logical?
Towards the end it gets more and more stupid. Maybe the author shouldn't short-circuit her own relationship and gender issues into a show. Clumsy lecturing is not something I want to see in an entertainment film. Nor omni-potent heroines. First prize for this bullshit movie.

I’m not a fan of historical dramas but this one is a must!
I usually never write reviews, but this is just had to be praised. I love the story, plot, dialogue. Everything about is hilarious. Yes it’s a historical drama [Usually the first thing that comes to mind hearing its historical is war, betrayal, and death...Ik bc I hate historical dramas.] I’m a fan of modern dramas but this one it never once felt like o was watching some ancient drama. Throughout the drama I felt a rollercoaster emotions, but the one thing that never changed was how funny it was. The ML & FL’s chemistry is one of a kind. The male is in awe of the female lead and loves her with all his heart, while the female lead is cute and quirky in her own ways. There couldn’t have been any better cast or story. I simply loved it! Just wish we got a little more scenes of the main leads. (Just being greedy here lol 😂) Finding it so hard to get over. This drama will forever have a special place in my heart!Was this review helpful to you?
RECOMMENDED DRAMA OF THE YEAR
I was never a fan of traditional-like drama, but this one is an exception!! I love how Han Shuo falls in love with Qianqian and treats her very well. The way he smiles, look at Qianqian is everything we ever asked for!! The acting is so natural. The chemistry that they build was perfectly strong. Tbh, my friend has already spoil the ending for me, but I still cry a lot even though I knew what will happen. I really recommend all of you to watch this drama. The plot is not dragged & smooth as ever. Everyone should give it a shot. They are so cute & so good at acting. The side characters also give really excellent work!! Pls, watch.Was this review helpful to you?

Refreshing, clever and fun!
This was a surprising gem. This is obviously a story written by writers for writers and people who know and can appreciate the craft. The lines made me laugh so hard that tears came to my eyes and then cry so hard that I started laughing again.The chemistry between the leads was so sweet and engaging that it helped me survive a 48 hour fast (during my second rewatching!!!) The rest of the cast were also very fun and played well - especially Zi Rui, Bai Ji and Meng Guo.
I'm super impressed by the young actors in this show. All props to the comedic genius that is Rosy Zhao and what a charmer Ryan Ding is. Those two are just too cute. I really hope they come back in Season 2. I seldom want to see another season of a particular show, but now, I'm actually very excited and glad!
Highly recommended!

Don't get the hype
I wanted to like this because I am a fan of Zhao Lusi, but this whole thing is just ridiculous and corny. The main character is just stupid and annoying. She is basically a bumbling idiot the entire time. I don't think I can finish watching this because I can't stomach any more of this stupidity. Instead of just going with the flow, she is constantly trying to keep the story the way she wrote it, not realizing that it's already changed with her presence. This show could have been a lot better, but the writers ruined it.Was this review helpful to you?

1UMA SOCIEDADE COM OS PAPEIS INVERTIDOS DE HOMENS E MULHERES DARIA CERTO?
Enquanto as mulheres governam, estudam, tem títulos e voz, os homens devem ser virtuosos, decentes, sem opinião e torcerem para serem bonitos e casarem bem... Fiquei encantada com a ideia, confesso (é incrível como somos tendenciosos e vingativos hahaha), mas fica claro que somente uma sociedade com direitos para TODOS é feliz. Nessa história vemos 2 cidades, uma onde os homens são soberanos e outra onde as mulheres são soberanas. E é obvio que vemos um casal entre as 2 cidades.Nossa protagonista é uma roteirista e essa é a história que ela está escrevendo, com um desfecho sombrio e um final trágico, porém ela de repente se vê dentro de sua própria história, não como a protagonista do roteiro, mas como uma personagem que vai morrer em menos de 24 horas. Agora ela deve se desdobrar para sobreviver e fazer com que essa história chegue ao final e ela possa voltar ao nosso mundo.
Nessa jornada, damos muitas gargalhadas com nosso casal principal, ficamos revoltados com as injustiças das duas cidades. As ideias mirabolantes da protagonista para dar andamento na história dela, são hilárias (embora as vezes a gente fique com raiva de como ela engana os outros). Os secundários são demais, como eu gostei da dupla que ela fez com o ajudante pessoal dela, também gostei demais dos rebeldes da montanha. Ri demais na cena que eles raptam ela. Realmente gostei desse dorama, é do tipo que todos os episódios são envolventes. O final eu não esperava, mas gostei mesmo assim. Queria muito que tivesse um Spin-of para curtir mais um pouquinho dos dois.
OBS.: Nunca tinha visto a Zhao Lusi com short curto hahahaha, estou tão acostumada em ver ela com roupas de época que vê-la vestida casualmente, me fez pensar "Isso parece errado, nunca vi tanta pele dessa atriz" hahahahah...
Então por que 8,5? Faltaram apenas 2 coisas: Plot e choro (Acho importante para uma série ser completa, ela te fazer rir e chorar).
