First 20 Episodes are actually quite good, pacing story just nice. However towards the next 20 episodes it become dull, I fast forward the last 20 episodes. I think this series will be good if it just ended at 24-30 episodes to not make the audience bored with unnecessary scenes
Music is good, costumes also good
Acting:
1. Applause acting to second male lead Ci Sha who play Lu Jia Xue, actress who play mother Lin Hai Ru and actor who play Duke Ling. And the duck who always tried to take out the ribbon around its neck :p
2. Cast : The story mentioned that Luo (Wei) Yi Ning is a fragile weak lady, not sure why Ren Min cast and play this character? She doesn't portray weak and delicate lady at all.. a lot of Chinese actress have that features with better acting skills. The actress playing 5th sister and 6th sister act better than her.
3. No chemistry between the ML and FL.
4. This is second series that I watched for both FL (Ren Min) and ML (Zhang Wan Yi)
Compare to the other series that Ren Min play (I watched the longest promise) her make up here is much better and I think she lose weight so her face does not looks that mega big (still big though in certain scene). Acting wise, looks slightly better than in the longest promise, however her smile is indeed still fake, there's no different on her facial expression between angry and shock.. all looks the same with her effort on widen her eyes.
Zhang Wan Yi acting looks the same with the other series that I watched (Lost you forever). Either the character is the same or?

Overall it is still watchable and enjoyable (especially the first 20 episodes).
