Childhood

Loved this series growing up watching with my grandpa.
Our MC Wei Xiao Bao is such an scoundrel, and the opening song is catchy. It fits his character quite well, loyal, lazy, but courageous, and doesn't like learning. Being illiterate and yet achieved a lot. Also his relation with the Emperor is beautiful, made me cry at the last episode when it finally come to an end.

Watching him use his silver tongue to get through situation is hilarious, with his reaching great power and heights through his cleverness, and apparently the novel involved the Russia Empire and other deeds that he managed to facilitate. Wished they added in that too.
Though points off for him basically date r*ping at least one of his wife. Really wish that wasn't one of the thing he did.
