Not upto the expectations based on the book
I have reduced my rating just because of the last few episodes as I have thoroughly enjoyed the book.I enjoyed OST, production, performance of mostly everyone in the series.. So many good things, but ending collapsed it all.
Many things have not been done reasonably (different from book),
1. Xue Fangfeng - Did not prove her innocence
2. Concubine Li - Did not have to be colored with goodness.
3. Relationship between Xiao Feng and Situye - no need to have been romanticized.
4. Princess Wanning - Not made pure Evil as in the book
5. Longwu Army - Did not have to be played like this
6. Shen Yurong - Need not have this much importance
7. Rebirth of Xue Fangfeng - not explained properly..
8. Subordinates of Xiao Feng / Jiang Lo - Unnecessary sad ending
9. Jiang Yuanbai - Need not have been uplifted from a Careless dad to caring dad

Excellent show till date as per my preferences
It has been so long since I have watched such a show which is Complete in every aspect. Each and every episode kept us entertained and did not let us feel any boredom even though the scenes were with a slow moving pace. Characterization needs to be appreciated and also the corresponding portrayal by the actors need a big round of applause.Not able to pick any actor for praising as all of them had exceeded expectations with their role performances.
Definitely a show which has high rewatch value according to my preferences.
