Zhou Ye plays He Yan who has risen in the ranks posing as her ill brother and is a celebrated General. When her brother recovers the family try to get rid of her so he can claim her glory and standing. She ends up enlisting in an army led by the cold and mistrusting General Xiao Jue played by Lei Cheng and has ambitions to gain her reputation and take revenge. The two are suspicious of each other but over time realise they have helped each other in the past and must join forces to protect the country and fight against the dark forces at court out for their own gain. Very enjoyable romantic action drama with a good story and great cast.

I dont really watch chinese drama let alone the historical onces since there is too much political but this drama is perfectly balanced. I love the mc and ml so muchjjhnajsjsjsjsnsbsbsjsk. How am i supposed to spend time now that it has ended. It was so good , i was literally dying when it was sonoy airing 1 episode per day.

Zhou Ye was the perfect choice as the FL He Yan, and after watching series like "Word of Honor" and "Back from the Brink," I can safely say that she is not only a versatile actress but that she always takes her roles seriously. She is one of the few actresses I love to watch because I know her performance will be far more seasoned and balanced, and not to mention much more tolerable than the typical C-drama FL.

However, it was Ryan Cheng's performance as Xiao Jue that surprised me the most. Even though I remember him from the series "My Journey to You," he didn't quite leave an impression on me like he did in this series. He was a perfect fit for the role. Not only is he a superb actor, he's stunning to look at, and his aura was convincingly that of a military general.

To be fair, the entire cast did a stellar job. The plot is well put together (with a good balance of humor and suspense), and to say anything less would literally be nitpicking. While it's true that the pacing seemed to suffer a bit near the end (perhaps they were pressed to condense quite a few plot developments within just a few episodes), it was still quite enjoyable, and I'd highly recommend it to anyone looking to pick up a good, solid C-drama in 2025.

The reason I gave it an 8/10 rather than a 9/10 is solely due to the pacing issues near the end.

As a side note (and I digress), every time I spot Bai Shu in a series, I can't help but wonder how the heck he's managed to feature in so many C-dramas within such a short period of time. Somehow, I can't unsee him as Lord Flying Snake from when I watched "Love and Redemption," which makes it so hard for me to take him seriously as a villain (He Ru Fei). He's also been in "Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils," "The Legendary Life of Queen Lau," "The Blood of Youth," "Dashing Youth," "Love of the Divine Tree," and "A Moment but Forever," just to name a few. I'm starting to think that whatever he features in turns to gold.

Firstly, I thought the pairing of both of the ML and FL a bit odd. But after watching them act, it just felt right.

They are so good together.

Their chemistry is amazing.

And yes on top of that I like female oriented shows in which female plays significant role. This show thoroughly focuses on the skills of female soldier. And FL is killing it by her martial art moves and fighting sequences. It's great to watch such depth in those parts.

Lastly, ML is dashing playing cold hearted yet kind green flag general.

So this series a blast for me and you must watch it too without any doubt.

I must say its so hard to find this kind of drama nowadays. A man with a huge green forest meets a girl who also a huge green forest. In the world of red flag, here are they as a green flag couple. The acting chef kiss.. I love this story even through a little bit different from a novel but trust me its soo much better in this way.. very satisfying.
