I watched Bu Bu Jing Xin, which was written by the same author. Honestly, I enjoy this series better, since it has more fluffiness compared to BBjX. It does help that Eddie Peng starred in it, the main reason why I checked it out in the first place. There are some political issues/struggles, but this one has a lot more romance among 3 characters, Xin yue (liu shi shi), Jiu ye ( hu ge) , and wei wu ji (eddie peng) who's a general, and being general he has very strong character, and rather arrogant but nothing wrong with a guy who knows what he wants! Compared to BBJX, this series dealt with all different animals, i guess it might not be too easy to shoot. as any Chinese drama series, there would be heart wrenching moments that you'd feel for the characters. All actors were excellent, they either make you love them or hate them.
