I would say that this is one of the best C-dramas I've watched so far!! :) This isn't the typical historical drama where everyone is so heavily involved in politics and where all those emotions drag you down. The amazing OSTs along with the spectacular acting is definately not going to disappoint you if you haven't watched it.

I really liked how the main lead (Yun Xi) has a specialty with poison and is able to stand up for herself based on this ability. She has the guts to do what she thinks she's right and she doesn't need a man to block all the arrows for her. Even so, it's still so heart-warming when the Duke comes to help her :").

Every episode contains something important and is worth watching every minute of it. To me, Yun Xi's ability to transform the Duke from being cold-hearted and domineering to a caring husband is the most... interesting. This may be because of Zhang Zhe Han's acting, which is really commendable. His eyes gave me the feeling that he is a very distant person with a lot of secrets (and I guess that's true).

This drama has piqued my interest and I'm currently reading the Chinese book - ????? Comparatively, to the drama, the book is much more exciting (and complicated) due to the long story plot. If you're missing Yun Xi and Fei Ye, try reading the book!
