- You guessed it, ANOTHER drama with your two favorite actors. (Zhang Vin and Dilraba Dilmurat, who honestly probably go to these castings together at this point.)
- Historical (ish?), dash of martial arts, power struggles, and love.
- You'll probably also suffer like you did with The King's Woman at the end.

It's all about female sacrifices. Both ended tragic. You question why does it have to be this way? Both drama begins with two opposing male leads falling in love with the female lead.
One had more freedom while the other trapped like a mouse. The male leads are starkly different; one for protection through heartfelt love and the other for protection through possessiveness (a different kind of love).

indico porque os protagonista agem com atitude fortes e parecidas que levam a desfeixos inquietantes para o telespectador. Sinopse: Gong Sun Li é a neta e discípula de um famoso comandante militar. Inteligente, destemida e bonita, Gong Sun Li ganha o coração de todas as pessoas que cruzam seu caminho. Foi isso o que aconteceu com Jing Ke, o primeiro discípulo do comandante militar. Os dois se amam desde a infância e são inseparáveis, mas um homem não concorda com isso.
Ying Zheng é o rei do Estado de Qin. Ele é ambicioso, cruel, implacável e muito inteligente. Ying Zheng é respeitado - e temido - por todos os reinos, mas o coração dele pertence à Gong Sun Li, a mulher que o salvou quando eles eram jovens. Quando o Exército de Qin ataca o reino da Gong Sun Li, ela se sacrifica e concorda em se casar com Ying Zheng para salvar Jing Ke. O casamento é apenas o começo da verdadeira provação. Gong Sun Li enfrenta conspirações no palácio a cada passo. Ela também descobre que ela está grávida de Jing Ke. Inesperadamente, ela também descobre que Ying Zheng é, na verdade, uma pessoa gentil e incompreendida. A vida da Gong Sun Li começa a melhorar à medida que ela se aproxima mais do rei, até que Jing Ke reaparece tentando recuperar o amor perdido e assassinar o rei.
Ao ser pega na batalha entre o marido e seus inúmeros inimigos, a rainha logo descobre que ser a mulher do rei não é nenhum conto de fadas.

This two dramas are very similar. The main couple they are from rival countries. She saved his life when they were kids. Both main girls have something they wear to make the male lead recognize the girl, in general and I it was a jade hairpin but in The King's Woman it is a half cirlce jade necklace. The male lead forces marriage with the main girl. The main girl is in love with someone else in the beginning. The only difference so far is that the main guy is king in this drama but in General and I he was a general, also the female lead was a female strategist in General and I but in this drama she is a swordfighter.
