Then up until halfway, the story soon became draggy and repetitive with similar conflicts in different guises, lack of development/depth in characters who even seems to have gone through reverse development all of a sudden. But it did deliver in terms of entertainment for the first half and had everything you would want in a drama: good pacing, decent story, romance, action, a likable and brainy female lead who isn't afraid to punish her enemies seeing as this is a revenge drama. The premise is exciting enough, though nothing entirely original. Of course, the drama is littered with people who want her dead because how else will we know she is the heroine? In a nutshell, the drama version of Princess Wei Young is about a Liang princess who tries to avenge her fallen kingdom by taking up the identity of a forgotten, illegitimate daughter of a Prime Minister in the enemy state of Wei and along the way meets those who either want her dead or love her for her wits, character and bravery. 'Inspired by' is far more fitting and is to be used loosely here. Story (6/10): For those who read the novel and are curious about the drama version, it would be wrong to even call it an adaptation for it is nothing like it. But it did not deserve 54 episodes of repetition that got seriously old past the halfway mark. Though the latter half of the drama fell from grace somewhat, certain elements stuck through and made it overall an enjoyable watch. Rewatch Value 6.0 What a journey for Weiyoung.
