Lazy ending!

First of all the acting was great. Dylan Wang seems to be getting better each time I watch him, especially with the subtle facial expressions and body movements that are needed to play a character like Xiao Duo. The other actors did a great job as well, especially the actor (who personally I have never seen before) who played one of the most insane and neurotic emperors I've seen in a while. When you hate a character that much......you know the actor is doing a good job!

The costumes and sets where lovely and I greatly enjoyed the music, it worked very well. I greatly enjoyed the drama. Even though the plot was a bit tropey at times, they didn't linger too long on it and it didn't ruin the over all fun of the drama itself. Which leads me to my biggest problem with the show.......the last episode, or rather the last half of the last episode..........what was with that ending?

There are open endings and then there are lazy endings and the end of this show was simply just lazy! for reason which I explain below.
1. You had a strong couple in Yilou and Xiao Duo and they run off into the night at the end giving us a message that if you can't beat the system, run away from it! Is that really what the writers had been aiming for the whole season? I doubt it.
Also we last see the two running down one of the many allyways in the imperial city.......did they get out? did they get caught? did they live happily ever after and have kids that they told the story to? We will never know because the ending never tells us.
2. The prince had gone into the imperial city to rescue the woman he loved........Princess Hede..........and what happened with those two? Again we don't know because the plot seems to completely forget why the prince went with Xiao Duo or that the pair loved each other at all. We never see the two get together or even try and look for each other. What a waste of that relationship.
3. The beaurau lieutenants who spend all their lives following Xiao Duo. I love their characters (although i can't spell their names so I wont try) and yet again they seemed pushed to the side and almost forgotten about. we don't know if they follow the main pair into a free life or go out on their own. one is married to Yilou's ex maid but do they stay with their ex employeers?........again nothing given us at the end to say anything about this unusual extended family.
4. The emperor. He ends up collapsed on the floor at the end. OK....is he dead, unconscious, faking it? Again we are given no information on his condition or what happened to the country afterwards.

The ending is simply lazy and ruins alot of the hard work put in for the rest of the show.
If you want a show with an ending which summarises the shows message and characters really well, this definitely isn't for you.
