Even though later episodes took place in palace, the main theme of TBOY is brotherhood and family, not the political struggle. It makes TBOY differs in better way from NIF. In NIF, after the issue solved, the ML cut his tie with his emperor uncle. The emperor just ended in regret. In TBOY, the regret is followed by restoration of family ties, between emperor as the father and his son, and the emperor with his deceased. brother.

I am disappointed she only gave this drama 1.5. For me it is the best among wuxia this year. But, I don't blame because she admitted it herself she didn't watch the donghua or read the novel. She needs more research before publishing her review, especially for drama which is generally perceived as very good by public. Go against public opinion would not be good.

The dog appears as the mascot of Tianqi city. You can find it in the episode where Xiao Se and friends went to lantern festival and Sikong Qianluo bought him the mascot (it is a doll, I think).

It is because he is angry. Why he is angry is explained in episode 9 or 10.

The drama ends like the novel ends. So, I think there will not be any sequel.

Yes, the build up is not strong enough. I think their romance starts in episode 8 when Xiao Se compliment her getting prettier. Qian Luo then has a kind of childish crush on him and pursue him everywhere. She is just a teenager.

Xiao Se is a character of suprise. This like when Xiao Se with Tang Lian gambling in Rui's city. At first he seemed like refusing, but in the end he accepted Tang Lian's 5 5 6 funnily.

Xiao Se-Qian Luo follows the novel.
