No complaints
Beautifully crafted and impeccable acting. The story develops smoothly without dragging on in useless situations that lead to nowhere. The female lead is not rebellious like someone already pointed out but intelligent, determined and assertive, which is a good representation of the softer gender which otherwise is normally portrayed as being long-suffering women in a lot of dramas. The male lead is a dream of a husband without compromising valour and courage as a warrior.Overall, I do think this drama is great, it has a modern approach, good acting and the wardrobe design is absolutely mind-blowing. Would I re-watch it? Most certainly!

Plain plot
Besides the acting, which is well executed by some of the actors, I'm terribly bored with the story line. There is nothing passionate about the characters, love story, or political plots.The drama started well but after Yanyan marries the Emperor, everything goes down hill. And the Emperor coughs forever but never really gets seriously ill. He remains in the drama with nothing to do except sitting on the throne.
I expected a lot more from this drama, and I now I'm quite disappointed. I will not wait till the end of the series to see if it get any better.

Beyond the ordinary
Very cleverly designed, unusual to the three-part conventional dramas we are accustomed. It was refreshing to watch different angles of the same history. The character development is flawless with loads of twists and turns, and the acting is superb.Reiterating what someone wrote in the recommendations, every episode is compelling and has something to offer to the viewer. I absolutely loved it because it's so unconventional. I wish they'd make more dramas like this. The chemistry among the main lead actors is spot on, and at the end we are rewarded with a happy ending. What else would you wish for?

What on earth?
The plot of this drama is extremely poor. To compensate for the lack of script depth or simply for failing to present a decent drama; the cast, visuals, music and costumes are absolutely stunning. However, it's very disappointed to see the huge potential of the main lead actors go to waste in such a disparaging storyline and I'm not referring to the ending (which sucks) but to the superficial development of the characters which results in a substandard mess.I watched it till the end purely because I love the actors and it was an isolated pleasure to see them in action, but the story left me bitterly let down.
