I can see that both have matured a lot in their acting. Admittedly, I didn't know how this couple would pane out in a historical drama but this is way better than any of my wildest dreams. The chemistry between Yang Yang and Zhao Lusi is so sweet and overwhelming. While political schemes and wuxia values do play a major role in the plot, there's a more evident focus on romance. What's more impressive is that they're both on equal footing where no one side is weaker than the other in talents, martial arts or status. There's an unwavering trust and teamwork between Hei and Bai Fengxi that makes them a force to be reckoned with. They're adventurous and playful in the martial arts world, but very dedicated to their royal duties in bringing peace and prosperity to their citizens. I'm truly in love with the duality of both leads. Hei Fengxi is tough and merciless towards his opponents but incredibly soft-hearted when it comes to his own people, especially Bai Fengxi. From a young age, he was forced to fake illness and learn the ruthlessness of court politics on the path to becoming the royal heir.

Like her, he also has a double identity as the Second Prince Feng Lanxi of Yong. But underneath that façade, he's extremely cunning and ambitious, just like the endearing nickname "Black Foxy" Bai Fengxi has given him. Hei Fengxi is the embodiment of grace and elegance that's known as a diplomatic and just hero. Secretly, she's also Princess Feng Xiyun of Qing who's renowned for her intelligence and eloquence. She's a cute glutton when there's good food and a headstrong, cheeky opponent when there's a good fight. "As beautiful as she is lethal." Bai Fengxi is a smart and brave yet carefree heroine who stands in the face of justice. It's hard to describe their relationship with just a few simple words. They're each other's greatest rivals, companions and partners in crime but also inseparable like light and shadow.

To the world, they're known as the Hei-Bai Fengxi duo, "Hei" and "Bai" as in black and white. “Like the hawk that soars freely, you reject the shackles." Hei Fengxi and Bai Fengxi are a fated pair.
