Although the romance isn't the main part of the story - but the latter -- it still show a lot of sweet moments when it can/deserves to be shown. Kisses aren't always necessary need to be shown if someone is in love or not -- but the actions towards each other are much more important to me.

Anyways, aside from that -- the main theme is the feud/misunderstandings that arose between the Han family vs the Di family. Of course there were others too that got involved - in the entanglement of it all.

Plus the war the broke out - that wasn't exactly necessary b/w the Northern Qi vs Jing country too -- which lead to the death of Princess Anning -- and almost near death experience for Han Ye. As for Ren Anle, Luo Mingxi and the rest -- they all suffer from different pain/deaths/sufferings too. But only a handful survived in the end to give it a happy ending. Sadly - there were some important ppl that lost their lives in the end -- which will definitely make you cry a lot too.

Anyhow -- it was worth the wild ride -- of emotions/angst, etc. Well done everyone! Well done Simon Gong, Dilraba Dilmurat, Liu Yuning, Xia Nan, Chen Tao, Tim Pei, etc. You guys did well!! Well done director and crew for putting this drama together. Wished there were more of it -- but this is still fine as it is. Love the OST in this drama too!!
