I really think this one is underrated
When it comes to lengthy historical Chinese dramas, it is a known fact that the drama will take 20 something episodes before the main plot kicks in. This was also one such drama. The first few episodes are a little difficult to get through but once you keep watching, I assure you it's got one of the most promising plots and characters.
Story:
It's a typical story about camaraderie and how everyone grows with every single experience/obstacle that they overcome. The character of Zhou Fei begins with an impulsive and immature character but it is wonderful to watch her become the best of herself throughout the drama. The character of Xie Yun is just absolutely charming and I could keep watching him forever. It's a female centric drama which focuses on a strong female lead and I'm totally a fan of such dramas. There's enough drama involved that there's no unnecessary drama between the main leads. Their romance is just very pure and the blind trust between them makes the drama worth watching. With the exception of some plot holes (like what happened to Chuchu's brother), the story is pretty decent and engaging.
Acting:
I've never been a fan of Zhao Liying. I always thought that she lacked the necessary emotions to pull off intense characters. But she surprised me in this one. As for Wang Yibo, he has always been one of my favourites ever since The Untamed and he was the main reason I got through the first few episodes. If you liked WYB as the cold and aloof Lan Wangji, this one is a must watch as he plays a completely opposite character. His smile is absolutely devastating. The rest of the cast also did a great job in making this drama worth a watch.
The one thing that I totally loved in this drama were some of WangYibo's dialogues! They were just so unique, hilarious and original. His character's flirtatious nature just makes the drama even more enjoyable.
Do not judge the drama based on the storyline mentioned here as it is much more than a story of bandits. I hope everyone likes it and enjoys it as much as I did. I'm off to read some fanfictions to get over this drama!
