At the beginning I felt surprised of how intense this drama really feels, the slave-girls being chased around by wild wolves as a game made by the powerful young master Yuwen Hai (very evil person) for his friends including the princes and other spoil sons from rich families, one girl Xinger/Chuqiao (the heroine) showed magnificent skill by killing 3 wolves and being a sole-survivor getting attention from Yebei Prince Yan Xun (her interest) and the cold-hearted Yuwen Xue (her teacher and also her other interest). Basically it's a triangle love story between those three, of course I heart for Yuwen Xue. To spill in some plot prince of Yan turned to become cunning and bad made sworn-enemy with Yuwen Xue and Wei kingdom.
The great weaknesses of this drama are definitely the dragging plot, the development of the characters' turned outta be somehow unrealistic especially the heroine's character development felt so unreal looking at her to be that dummy and slow killing my interest of her (well I supposed as the strong main character of this drama she was supposed to have brain but very seldom i found it here instead in trouble-times she often being helped by the men who loved her (men OK not man)), the sucks cliff-hanger ending, yes true too many unnecessary stories focusing on the supporting characters made this drama becomes boring so I have to skip watching many eps since they are all irrelevant for the main plot.
The acting of the actors are OK and not bothersome. I like Lin Gengxing who was before acting as the 14th prince from Bu Bu Jing Xin (startling by each step) acted as a serious, calculating, meticulous, but also gives in to his heart sometimes. Zannila Zhao's tried to give in her best as a cold-cruel woman and it's not bad to see this side of her, as for others they are not bad since I tend to focus on those two whom give the life for this dragging drama. The soundtracks are not really good. The scenery is real at least they didn't give us fake-scenes like General and I, but gotta admit that Lost Love in Times and General & I are having much better plot and actors compare to this forceful drama. Feel disappointed so much with this drama even I am not hoping much from season 2 if the maker gonna make it as boring as the predecessor.
