It's about Palace politics coupled with two triangle love
stories.
The initial episodes showed the process which ladies who entered
the palace as potential concubines undergo. Also interesting to
note the different "titles" or levels of the potential
concubines.
Most junior level : ju tsi
Next level: tup ying
Next : kuai yan
Next : fei
Sheren Tang acted very well as yu fei. Her facial expressions does
all the "acting". However, Gigi Lai won the Best Actress instead
and having watched the series twice, I do believe Gigi deserves the
win. She had to portray more facets of her character and she did it
brilliantly. But I must admit, I don't really like her crying face.
She is beautiful but not when crying.
In my humble opinion, the best-looking crying face is Myolie Wu.
