So this is my second chinese historical drama after TMOPB, and i kinda liked it. But i loved the acting of chang an, gong zi, wan mei, liu guniang, yue ying, xing feng (spelling might be wrong). Specially chang an and gong zi. I hate the character and acting of cha luo, i min she did good job to look cruel but sometimes her expressions are too overacting.
One thing i hate is Ending!!!! It was sad but after reading peoples comment that chang an is alive its relief, so its neither sad nor happy happy ending.
But but but after watching this drama my eyes definitely need some good light because this drama is so dark unlike TMOPB. That drama has vibrancy, lights and soothing scenes.

I just hate the fact that we international user don't get proper subs to understand the drama,most of the time either its fan sub or no sub at all. And in fan sub there is so much error and sometimes they doesn't even translates what they are saying and what's written so its difficult to understand the story and plot fully. Like in this drama we don't know what is written on the fan wan mei holding but people says it's a hint and metaphore kinda thing which reveals that he is alive.
Apart from this most of the time characters have some witchcraft and spit blood, because why not after all it's "Blood-y" Romance.
