Synopsis:
Maiden Holmes is about Su Ci, a highly intelligent female detective who disguises herself as a man to investigate the conspiracy that led to the massacre of her clan. She meets the equally intelligent (and handsome) Prince Qi, who poses as a dissolute commoner playboy, but who is actually investigating a conspiracy which led to the ambush and crushing defeat of his army.
On their mutual quest for truth, they join hands to investigate a number of cases, fall in love, and team up with another pair of quick witted young sleuths, Dong Ru Shuang (an accomplished poison doctor) and Xie Bei Ming (a swashbuckling martial artist), to uncover the greatest conspiracy of all within the gates of the Imperial Palace.

First thoughts:
🐼: Newcomer Zhang Ling He is a breath of fresh air in his debut role as the dashing Prince Qi - his chemistry with Chen Yao as Su Ci is spot on. I've watched a few episodes and so far, so good! As a fan of intelligent, strong female leads, I am also loving how smart Su Ci is and how comfortable Prince Qi is with her cleverness.
