not usual FL or Queen

I think this is first time ever I've watch c-drama where the FL is not a pretty slim woman. As expected this drama bring us along with new perspective of FL, many new joy to the ride.

What's new:
+ FL is not a pretty slim woman. Hell yeah finally we can see FL not as a pretty slim woman & she feel very proud of herself & no shame have big body.
+ Queen not groom to be queen. Liu Jin Feng (JF) never been raised to be queen, so she never learn the etiquet to be one. As a result we see not very polite, not very elegant woman as our FL and queen.
+ JF bring the upbring as usual woman & treat the king, Duan Yun Zhang (YZ), as her husband not the king. As the result we can see how she teach him how to apologize when you wrong no matter who you are or to watch his mouth, because as she said his word is a degree so he can just said it as he please, must be the right order that bring goodness to everyone else.

What I like:
+ the attraction between JF & YZ. Chemistry not over the top, of course this still a comedy drama not romance, and the behavior between Jackie Li & Li Hong Yi we can see very friendly & they're very enjoy the moment they're in the scene together.
+ The nature of Liu Xie (LX) characteristic. From the very first we can see this is a very interesting man, but what is his intention....? Is he really bad or he just have very sly personality that like to play with the mind of YZ. Even YZ himself torn between is LX actually a good man or bad one, that's why we can see until the very end YZ actually quite reluctant to kill LX.
+ How the relationship between JF & YZ form until the end. How they build the trust, friendship & love in the end.
+ The relationship between Liu Bai Yu (BY) & Duan Yun Chong. It's quite funny to see how their relationship transform...
+ The character of Yong Fu. We always say good mother shape a good daughter. Well this happen in the case of this drama. We often can hear the word, my mom said....

What lack:
- I have to admit although I quite happy we can see not a norm queen, but to see a complete out of norm Queen like JF is also quite questionable. And the moment they also put BY as one moment that more fit as Queen then JF is also quite raising our eyebrow... But everything good & have their purpose at the end....
- Half baked love rival between By & JF or YZ & Yu Chang Ya. Yeah sometimes quite happy to see we don't have very cunning love rival that want make us pull their hair. But half baked like this also leave some holes....
- The kingdom enemy, like Xi Yue kingdom that already prepare battle but in the end become nothing except jokes. For me they better not prepare foreign kingdom as an enemy than like this. Like why kingdom must have enemy in the border, why not just create the story without it & just focus with the Palace or it's own kingdom.

Overall this one very unique drama that show up in drama world. I really hope we can see this kind of drama again & finger cross we can see Jackie Li as another FL not only support role.
