Give it a Go, good story. Good acting. AN ACTUALLY BRIGHT FL

So not ever having watched bai jing ting or song yi before I started watching it just for the sake of watching it. But it was much better than expected. It's GOOD. Its WONDERFUL. The fl is much better than cliche period drama fls who end up harming the ml a lot. ( I mean they hurt him emotionally and sometimes act foolish and put him in danger ). The couple chemistry is very good. They started off in a classical cdrama fashion but nahh their relationship isn't anything I expected it to be. There are no misunderstandings. No toxicity. The fl is wise and benevolent. My women started businesses from scratch 3 times! She protects and supports the ml - politically, financially. Here, men are not the only breadwinners and protectors. It's an equal relationship in true sense.

The supporting characters like zhou ye, shen ming and Ye shi'an are all good actors and support the main couple very much in their pursuits. The commissioner Fan Xuan was a benevolent leader. (I am so happy he didn't disappoint me).

Well what started off from the snow of Jiangnan, through the dry winds of north it ended up in Dongdu. The fl who started as a timid, oppressed-in-her-own-family girl grew up to be a business tycoon having wealth which rivaled the kingdom. And the ml who was a playboy not listening to his parents in the starting eventually became a minister in the court and not any minister the left councillor (basically the one on highest post). What started off as a misunderstanding, eventually became a beautiful relationship standing strong in times of war, separation and tragedies. They parted with their loved ones, their wealth. Gu jiusi, Indeed used his body to protect yuru's body from wind and rain and her clothes from dust and indeed yuru accompanied him in his travels of a thousand miles.

Generous, wealthy and considerate. They built relationships with people wherever they went. They both helped each other navigate through all hard times. Indeed, it was a God sent marriage.

On a side note - the ost is good and I really like the song 'it's you'
