This is an absolute must watch.

I've been wanting to write a review for this for a long time but I couldn't because I don't know where to start gushing about this drama. I absolutely LOVE LOVE this drama!! Each and every episode is worth watching.

This is not your kind of typical revenge drama. In summary, this drama is about Li Chang Ge, who initially set out to get revenge from the Tang empire ended up returning as a guarding angel to it instead.

My most favorite part of the drama is the relationship development between the 2 main characters. From being friends to fellow comrades and finally, to lovers, the transition is absolutely beautiful!! In the beginning, Li Chang Ge is like a loose cannon leaving chaos in her path and our male lead ( Ashile Sun ) pretty much cleans after her and saves her ass at every corner. and together they make an invincible team with brain and brawn. And I like how the male lead has eyes only on Li Chang Ge, which is so cute!! This drama is about how these two lost souls finding solace and family in each other.

And my second most favorite part is the transition of Li Chang Ge. Initially, she was just blind to revenge but gradually she realizes that the lives of people are more important than her revenge which transformed into a guardian angel of both Tang and the grasslands together with Ashile sun. This is why this story takes a whole new turn into revenge drama.

For me, this drama is on par with other great dramas like the legend of Fuyao, princess agents, etc. From the casting to ost to costumes everything is perfect. With Dilraba, Leo Wu, Rosy Zhao the drama can't get any perfect, and their acting blows you away. especially Leo Wu. The OST and soundtracks in this drama are absolutely beautiful. I once saw this video about the making of the soundtracks and it made me realize how much effort they put into making them.

I read the manhua and I love both versions of the drama and the manhua!!

All in all, this is one of the best period dramas and an absolute must-watch.
