I am starting to wonder the same as you. Why they even called it main leads when you barely have any screen times…making no sense to me. As much as I appreciate the Chinese cuisines, I am having a headache looking at these food and frustrated that I cannot taste them. I get these food are for royalty, but are they even accessible for common people like you and me esp in modern time?! I like to know bc it’s not even funny anymore as I keep seeing all these displays during dinner time on my end.

I was going to say the same as you. I cannot stand it at this point. What’s with her attitude towards him. Always quiet, showing no affection, and has no intention to go to him for peace. Did they even consummated on their marriage?

I agree with @sonderyugen here. Her feelings with the current King is not cleared for us all to see. Why did she even care to flirt with him in the beginning. He did say to her, “you used me” and took the initiative to approach me etc. if it was just curiosity then she could have stopped bothering him during the time she was a maid by not intentionally coming to his study constantly…she got his attention for sure but that’s not the way to being hot then cold then whatever afterwards…not too cool on my end. Her character is definitely smart and sure knows how to work with people, but treating him like that is unfair just bc her mother died and her life was just to be his wife and raised on how to revolve around him. She resented him for it?! Common. You knew this would happen though.

I don’t understand the relationship between the King Zhanji and Zijin now. Their romance is a slow burn for sure but even at 29 episodes, they still play this game of “tuck and pull”? Why is she not being affectionate towards him? Her acting cold and hard to get is annoying at another level.
