TSOMD as The Onion headlines (part 1)

part 2 / 3 

[frillyfacefins]

Main differences between TSOMD and the novel

Wang Zhi and Tang Fan have switched their wisdom stats (and many of Wang Zhi’s quotes are actually Novel!Tang Fan's)

Tang Fan gets repeatedly called “a beauty” by various people, and also has actual political ambition; he’s also older than Sui Zhou

Sui Zhou is wife-coded, not ex-military and has real political savvy and also a really shitty family

Wang Zhi can FIGHT but he‘s also very angry all the time (he is either yelling, pouting or flirting at Tang Fan whenever they are in the same room)

Dong‘er is Ah-Dong and might not be a genius, but is really good at martial arts AND officially part of the Tang family because Tang Fan made her his sworn sister (still crying about this)

the emperor is a magic-obsessed moron

there are no bombs, but lotsss of politics

Follow my comment threads over on twitter for vague comments on cases, snark about historical politics, flailing about character dynamics and screenshots for every especially cute, romantic or funny part of the book I come across

And if you want to read the translation yourself, you find that here <3

Sleuth of Ming Dynasty (2020) - 成化十四年 - Whump List

List by StayDandy Synopsis : Set during the 14th year of Chenghua Emperor's reign, Tang Fan, a sixth rank official and Sui Zhou, an embroidered uniform guard, join hands to crush a conspiracy to maintain peace and order for the people. (MDL) AKA : The Story of Ming Dynasty | The Fourteenth Year of Chenghua

Whumpee : Tang Fan played by Darren Chen (center)

Country : 🇨🇳 China Genres : Historical, Mystery, Crime, Bromance, Censored Adaption, BL / Boys Love

Notes : This is a Partial List - I didn't list every bit of whump, just what caught my attention the most • Adapted from a novel of the same name by Meng Xi Shi • The novel was originally a BL novel. However, the main theme revolves around the crime solving and not the romance. The published version features the bromance between the characters. (I actually just learned this, I didn't know when I first watched - but it makes sense now)

Episodes on List : 3 Total Episodes : 48

*Spoilers below*

26 : Tang Fan purposefully poisons himself so as to help find an antidote for a friend

29 : … continued from previous ep. ...

44 : Sliced on his back with a sword
