The story of General Yang Ye, wife She Saihua, 7 sons, 1 daughter and daughters-in-law, all paragons of love, courage and loyalty, is well-told. The family dynamics of the Yangs are heartwarming. The romance arcs, including that of Son #6 Yang Yanzhao (Hu Ge) and Princess Chai Meirong (Lin Chia-yu), are sweet and entertaining.
There is more violence than I would have liked, but it reinforces one of the messages of the drama - about opting for a peaceful existence rather than engaging in wars for selfish reasons.
