My dear,
As I have noted here, I have nothing against Jodha being as rude to Jalal as she likes in private. He is not the wife-beating kind, so she can get away with it. But NOT in public, she is then demeaning, not him, for he made a fool of her yesterday, but herself.
Remember her ticking off those chaps for abusing the Shahenshah in the bazaar? What else is she doing now, in front of his servants and hers?
Moreover, in any relationship, one cannot indulge in an endless tit for tat exercise. If you go far enough back, she was constantly demanding his head at a time when he had done nothing to Amer. It is the blowback from that which makes Jalal believe that she had done it to get back at him, and this just when he had begun to admire, respect and trust her.
So, she has to take stock and decide where she wants to go now. She is surely old enough for that.

Hi There,
But the point maybe that she has to grow too in this relationship...that it was not always he who was at fault...she is ,and has been erroneous herself. The fact that he has grown and matured from the infamous "ark de datura..." ( forgive me Noah) ...is obvious...that she has regressed...from her own high standards...is also ..in some ways a response to her deep seated hurt, anguish and betrayal... I am playing devil's advocate here...but she has seen her father demoted from king, her betrothed slain, her marriage to someone who ,then , was definitely not the Din e ilahi proponent...besides being force wedded, humiliated, insulted, accused, traumatized by accusations...towards her and her family...this when she was just possibly beginning to thaw...it's his mirror image in emotions...So it's her turn to be petulant,angry, insulting, aggravating...More filler episodes...this provides...for sure...
