She is very understanding towards others, but is very clear on the lines of love and hate. Ai Yue is not like other family members always ordering people around, shouting at the servants. Enmity develops between Ai Yue and servant girl Ah-Xi due to a small matter. Ah-Xi is a silly girl. No matter the time of day, she likes to dance, sing, and have fun. Her singing influenced Ai Yue, and Ai Yue becomes mischievous with Ah-Xi. At the fire/flare festival are two handsome, bright young fellows named Liu Bo En and Long Chulai, the four young people after meeting each other, get along very quickly.

My personal opinion it's a very good drama. I really like the plot, the cast. And it's really nice to see Ruby once again as a princess and in a traditional China's drama.
I'm in episode 02... and can't wait to watch the next episode when it's finished dling.
The place where they filmed this is also very beautiful, Da Li it's known as one of China's most beautiful places!!! I have never been to there, but you can see it in the drama![/url]
