I'm confused. *SPOILERS AHEAD*

I began watching this drama as the premise was promising and the earlier episodes seemed to have a good flow but towards the end I was quite disappointed by the lack of proper storytelling. Some episodes/scenes seemed to be pure fillers and while I enjoyed seeing multiple pairings at the end, the ending just seemed too unrealistic.

What I liked:
1. The casting (especially for the FL)
If the actress for Shen Jin were to be played by anyone else, I think I wouldn't have been able to complete the drama. She manages to pull off the character very well that her rash decisions still make her character humane and not purely annoying.
2. The wholesomeness of the MCs
Albeit not very realistic, I found the bonds between all the characters (especially during ancient times) to be quite pure. I especially like the way the king was written in the end where he wouldn't like to sacrifice his children to be birds in a golden cage.
3. The fluff between the couples
Honestly, seeing the relationship grow between the character pairings especially ML & FL where their personalities become influenced for the better by each other is just delightful. I especially liked the fact where they made the ML cried, I have watched too many dramas where the ML is just totally unemotional. Men cry too. Also like the fact that the 母妃 of the FL is the head of the family, it gives for some rather comical scenes where the FL's father just shies away from politicking and pushes his wife to speak instead.

What made me confused:
1. There were absolutely no repercussions against FL's sisters and they seemed to have a total personality flip in the last episode where they suddenly became "good/civil" characters. Maybe they cut out that part as it was not important but the total personality flip just seemed too absurd to the point where they seem like different people.
2. The background of Ruonan
Her background is just confusing, although that might be a fault on my part where I just skipped through some parts as they just seemed too draggy. I don't get how they she just appeared out of nowhere on a cliff where the ML's brother also appeared? It wasn't too well explained (although, that could also be my fault of being not willing to watch at 1.0 speed).
