She actually is rather simple-minded. She’s bright and capable, but there were several instances where her comprehension…
The "Egg" scene when he's trying to get her to memorze the law for defending her house. Then she turned around an remembered the seven-step poem with ease. He was mightly flummoxed by the entire scenario.
There's a thin line between making your female lead naive and humble or simple and ditzy. And Pursuit of Jade crossed that line in episode 9 with the meeting with the restaurant owner. Like GIRL, c'mon you do business too.
The show can't simultaneously portray her as the leader of her own gang (she could run a protection unit if she wanted too) to being a country rube the next minute when she may be out of her element.
She's not dumb or simple. Young, and naive yes. But they've shown her to be plenty clever and fierce when necessary. We don't need that "I'm just a girl" energy with this character. It's not fair to the character or us as viewers.
The drama clearly shows he's into her. And Qingyan is clearly worried about her marrying him (rightfully so) but I was wondering if she ever publicly reciprocated his feelings in the book.
The writing on this is really good. Currently on episode 3. I like that it feels natural for both of them.The…

I got the impression he didn't - didn't have the Jade Sunflower perhaps - but there seems to be some confusion with him and his story.
I'm now invested in a likely doomed relationship --- Sigh---
Who does the Grand Princess end up with????
lol
Now he's proposing again (preview trailers?)?
Is that right?

So, when they separate the first time...how long are they a part and do they meet up again in battle?
Were Song Yuzhi and Zhao every together? Engaged?

Yes...but could the princess slaughter a pig, beat up grown men, and still be pretty as a peach?
I think not.
lol
