Yes around her master, and sometimes these days around Huaijin!

In the novel, they were not officially together, but Tiancai loved her but did not desire her because he knew she was a concubine, out of his league, Yonger liked him, but they did not date as such! In the later episodes, they decided that when everything wraps up, they will go to see mountains, beaches, cherry blossoms together, hence hinting that they might have a scope in the future! But then something tragic happens, I don't know if you just want an indication or the entire spoiler, but due to that they do not get the desired future. Theirs a tragedy! But I don't know if the drama would change it or not, till now the drama has been abiding by the novel!
If you wish to know the tragedy, I will tell you, I just don't know if you would want to keep guessing and hoping before they show it, or want to know it now!

Prince Duan understands that FL and SFL know things that are yet to happen. He is shocked knowing how are they able to predict the future. He feels that they have some kind of supernatural power/divination through dreams to see the future. Hence he wants them to support him against ML.
That is why he has planted spies around FL, SFL and ML to know their moves. These spies report back things to Duan. Hence Duan understands their plans as well. Then he counter attacks them. But him planting spies is not known to FL and ML. So FL believes that maybe even SML is a transmigrator or someone of high level, means someone with a power to see future. At first she doesn't understand his tactics, Hence she tries to test him!
When you catch up to the latest episodes, you would see that FL is able to understand that SML is just a bad person, without any ability just a 2D character!

I thought its just her character in the drama! Because in the behind the scene videos she is always laughing smiling playing and goofing around! On the other hand her character is very stiff, depressed sometimes, serious, even when she is smiling, her eyes don't have the happiness spark because of her traumatic past! But behind the scene videos of her are so full of life!
I read she is currently in a break, since MoLi got wrapped up, in X they said her next dramas are scheduled not before April! So hopefully she gets ample rest now!

Previously I would have considered, even an open ending! But these days all the transmigration dramas are generally giving HE, so no point of this drama not doing the same!

In X, I even saw a hot kissing scene in bed! We will be served good!

If they abide by the novel, absolutely no chance! It will be a HE!

Very properly!

He asked if he refuses to spend the night with the concubine, will she be executed! Like even if not an execution, maybe she will be humiliated, put in the cold palace, because Majesty refused to spend the night with her. Hence because she was already there, he told her to just stay and make a bed in the ground.
If I remember correctly, after few hours, the head Eunuch, asks the FL's maid if FL came out and she said no. Eunuch was shocked because much time passed and other concubines came out by that time usually! So I think in order to make less noise about everything, ML pretends he does spend time with his concubines, then later sending them away!

I read that, and I agree to that! But honestly you can simply put it like ML and FL transmigrated into a book of transmigration. A novel within a novel. Its not that hard, plus though the above person explained it in details very carefully, its really sounds complex when we read it, but if you watch it through the drama its not that complex!

Yes by ep 10 you would understand why he is devoted to FL! But his backstory is being told little by little in every episode, so have to wait for that!

He said if Duan was a transmigrator, then he that is Dan and Duan can reconcile, because neither one is from the kingdom, they can just chill! But if Duan is not a transmigrator, then he wants the throne, wants power, according to script he kills Dan, hence even if Dan fights back, either Dan will survive or Duan will, both of them cannot, because either of them will kill the other.
ML didn't mean between he and Wanyin, he meant between him and Duan!

He/She is going to be there till the leads are in the novel! The only random characters here would be the concubines, but they add the comedic element. Rest all the characters, villains, supporting roles introduced are going to be vital for the plot!
As you watch more, you will understand!

He/She exists in the novel! Plus a very important character, one of the very few allies of the leads, supports them physically and emotionally throughout! Its not a random character!

Are you not up to date with the latest episodes? Because without giving away much, I just want to say, his background his story, is being depicted since the last 3 episodes!

If they abide by the novel, there will be happy ending, don't worry!
China has censorship, which means dramas cannot show reincarnation or transmigration plots. They believes these things can lead to suicides by people in hope for a better life! Yes weird, but it is what it is! That is why such dramas always show that the entire thing was a dream, and then make the leads in the real world, just meet or stare towards each other, hence a open ending but on a positive note, because they have no other choice. Sometimes they become kind and show both the leads had the same dream and hence both have the same memories!
But these days, since another very popular transmigration drama- A dream within a dream, the makers have come up with a strategy to counter this! That drama gave the leads happy ending in the novel! Then made the leads question if the modern world/real world where the FL came from is even real or not. They showed FL going back, meeting ML again who always remembers her, they hug and kiss, happy ending! But how, why does he remember her? Because even that was a fictional world! At the end some author was typing the entire thing in a laptop, and it ends. So the leads get a happy ending in both the worlds, and it doesn't become a thorn in the censorship rules as well because they showed there was no real world, the modern/historical phases were just part of a novel being written by a person. Previous month, another drama My Page in the 90s, did the same thing.
"How Dare You" is adapted from a novel. I read the novel and it gave a happy ending in both the worlds! Last episode FL had a dialogue in which she said what real world, what is guaranteeing the fact that the world we came from is a real world, but not a novel world! Because in both the worlds people are kind of facing the same issues, they are breathing and dying! I feel that is a foreshadowing of what is about to happen! So I guess they will go the same path as the previous dramas, and give a happy ending to them! But because they have a lot to show, they might just show them retaining their memories, hugging, they might not spend a lot of time in the real world!

He is not on higher ground! That's just a misunderstanding, FL has! That is cleared by ep 10, if you watch the latest episodes! Prince Duan believes that if FL and SFL are able to know the future, then there must be a kind of divination, or supernatural ability they have! Hence he contacts them, tries to make them support him so that he can win! In order to make them trust him, he has planted spies around them who gives them information about the female leads, and then he tells them that, portraying that even he is on a higher level just like them and can see the future!
FL even buys that at first, but later realizes that its a tactic and he is just a 2D character! This gets cleared by ep 10!

Exactly the first time I hear these rules, I was so shocked. Why would someome attempt suicide or something after seeing transmigration or reincarnation plots? This is like saying after seeing a murder in show, I want to attempt a murder.
No one is that foolish. They should change the laws.

I was amazed how your theory was exact as written in the novel. You're such a good guesser.

FL and ML will have a happy life in the novel. Then ML will die first transmigrate back as a kid, grow up wait for FL, become a CEO, take rights of the book and become the owner of FL's company . FL comes back later, and reunites with him.
