A good story. The introduction of the story was filmed too short at the beginning of the episode yet it was relayed well.
The casts did their parts well. May it be small or big, there was no waste. Very good actors. Bravo.
The emperor here was named murderer. His people say that he killed innocent people for the throne. He was called a weak emperor, a puppet of eunuchs. Names that he has to bear. The emperor was left alone in the dark enduring all the shame. There was no one to trust and to lean on to. Who would believe him if he says otherwise? Who would believe him if he says he wants to change Chang'an into a better place? Who would stand faithful beside him?
Then, his s sword holder came into the picture that no matter how naive she was yet she has a big heart and a big understanding. This story teaches us loyalty, trust, love and hope.
