Multiple adaptations with slight twists

If you like period and costume series this is highly recommended
To starts of, there’s already multiple adaptations of this series and you can judge for yourself which you feel is the best one.
Things I like about this adaptation:
✔️the casts - except for couple of them like Yukee playing Zhao Min, and Xudan playing Zhirou, all actors fit the characters perfectly and played it well. Yukee to me overplayed the role with excessive facial gestures that half way through I started fast forwarding scenes that has her in it. Xudan just seemed not fitted for the role. I am thinking the actress who played Xiaozhao would have been more fitted for the Zhao Min role. This is just my personal opinion
✔️the small difference from previous adaptations made this more interesting
✔️the production truly did a way better job than pervious adaptations but that’s also because of advancement in technology and designs
✔️Costumes used are better
✔️Dialogue is simpler and better

It is 50 episodes only reason I lowered rewatch value.
I enjoyed watching the series and hoping more of this kind and value gets produced.
Joseph Zheng is a gifted young actor and hasn’t failed me yet in any movies or series he is in.
