Most of the actors did a good job. Dilraba Dilmurat and Vengo Gao did a great job with their character, the directing and cinematography were good too. I actually like the costumes better than the ones in TMOPB. The happy ending was abrupt with gaps missing connections. The story can be described as pieces of TMOPB broken apart and rearranged with Ye Hua and Bai Qian replaced with Dong Hua and Feng Jiu. The story was not creative nor original. It's like watching a drama that was plagiarized from a drama that's created from a plagiarized novel. I did some fast forwarding in different parts of the story since I know it's pretty much like watching TMOPB. The similarities between TMOPB and TLTWTPB show TangQi GongZi's talent as a writer. Not binge worthy or a rewatch quality.
I had finished watching TMOPB several times before I found out about TQGZ's plagiarism. I decided not to watch TLTWTPB for that reason. Unfortunately, I misunderstood one of the reviewer's comment that the story was true to the original novel and decided to watch the drama. In all fairness to the other talents, I finished watching the drama and gave this review.
