Overview
In the final years of the reign of Jiajing Emperor during the Ming Dynasty, Lu Yi of the Jing Yi Wei is commissioned to investigate the disappearance of funds that have been set aside for river repairs in Yangzhou. He is assisted by Yuan Jin Xia of the Liushanmen. The two accidentally become involved in a conspiracy. The talented female constable Yuan Jin Xia gets into a disagreement with the hot-tempered Jin Yi Wei Lu Yi over a case that they are both involved in. Jin Xia thought that she'd never encounter Lu Yi again in this lifetime, yet fate has its way of bringing two people back together. Government funds have been stolen and Jin Xia receives orders to assist Lu Yi in his investigation. They are unable to get along at first but learn to work together through the hardships. Eventually, they develop feelings for each other to become lovers. However, things go awry when the truth about the past comes to light. Jin Xia is the orphan of the Xia Yan case from many years ago and she bears the burdens of the bloodshed that destroyed her family.

Featured Comments/Tips
The first costume drama ever completed and my fav. ❤❤❤❤
Watch it for main couple slow burn romance (no :kiss_woman_man: as usual for Allen ren ) and their chemistry with touch of investigative genius. We all know the bad guy but he gets away due to power (hence the title Under the Power) as the underdogs build a case to trap that feet pervert and give him a fitting ending. I love how Yuan Jinxia is shameless in her admiration for Lu Yi 'amp; money and i love how he change his cold emotions to match this warm woman ad become caring but lets her do her own thing without having to but-in as a man. There are couple of love triangles and the most annoying one in both is Xie Xiao ; i wished he would be off'ed more than the villian such an obnoxious bratty log head made Shangguan suffeer initially and use through his presence but he was a good catalyst for the both triangle to grow close to their true loves . This is one drama i could watch a Season2 just because of the leads chemistry and pacing of the story had little trouble in the middle but it was never boring.
