He left her at cottage and left..She ran away from there with blind woman..his soldiers went after her but she left with lord li.. he dint search for her or dint learn anything about her post that..

They showed many useless scenes instead of fixing plot holes lol

She went in carriage,wore dress and came out as general..how stupid they can be..

@leprechaun clearly explained how in novel ,xie zheng helped her learn with military materials and studies and trained her before she directly went to battlefield..

But still, this is my first costume drama that I’m watching on repeat, and I found the hero and heroine’s acting absolutely amazing so I can forgive all the other flaws. Before this, I had watched The Princess and the Werewolf, whose VFX I didn’t find that impressive. At least the fight scenes in this one are really good.smiley36

By the way, Swathi, have you watched Love Between Lines? If not, then you should watch it. After episode 4, it becomes really enjoyable. It’s a good show I didn’t find even a single episode boring. I even watched it in repeat mode. It’s a modern drama.smiley4

Hi, In the novel of pursuit of Jade, was there any mention of when the heroine fell from the mountain and the hero saved her and took care of her? Does she ever find out about it? In the series, it’s not properly shown ! she only mentions during a conversation that ‘you also lied in the mountains,’ but there isn’t any complete scene about itsmiley44.

Where did you read the original novel from? Can you share the link to that website?

I’m watching it again, and in every episode there are small comedy scenes included within the dialogues, which I find really entertaining. The ‘spiritual tablet’ scene was especially funny in episode 3, she takes the hero to his own spiritual tablet to pray. There, she says something like, ‘My husband and I will pray for you,’ and at that moment the hero starts coughing.smiley37


@swathi, I liked it up to episode 29, but after that the story feels a bit rushed. They could have extended it by a few episodes. But overall, I really enjoyed this seriessmiley20

In the novel he wore the same mask and came for Fan Changyu's reinforcement when he shouldn't be present there (as Marquis Wu'an should be holding his post somewhere else). So she clearly knows it was Xie Zheng who cared for her in the mountains. But she didn't know he performed gusha(skin scraping technique) on her.

I read from: Chasing Jade (Zhu Yu) I think the Wattpad link you posted is better since it has chapter titles too. This one doesn't.


@Swathi_7

Let's just hope Xie Zheng would have told her one day about him saving her by performing gusha smiley36 but just not in the timeline we know.

The whole camp scene was exaggerated for nothing in the drama imo. The grain hunt was cut, bear hunting was cut, and changed to some lousy jail break and threatening the rival army to 'submit' their provisions. Fake marquis scene which never happened in the novel - imo those scenes looked more fake than real. And the Princess was never on the battlefield, it was another female apprentice. But with the changes made, we got a proper GSY - QS track which was not in the novel. Coming back to what I wanted to say smiley36 the emotional manipulation in the camp was the result of the changes they made. In the novel Xie Zheng was fuming inside knowing that she went to loot grains from the enemy camp but couldn't show it cuz he's playing the pitiful hubby in front of her smiley37 she bought him fur cloak and salt for cooking, who could say she broke the rules smiley36 she was just reprimanded.

And according to Chinese novel logic, the effect of aprodisiac can be supressed with loss of blood. He was cut, he deepened it to play sober for those few mins. Again in the novel there was no grand fair. The scene was set in the dark and he played a drunk man who accidentally tripped and fell into the water constantly leaning on Fan Changyu the whole time (which is more believable) SIGHHHH

Atp I'm just replying to everything in one post smiley37

The author wrote the Marquis character really well. He is someone who would go crazy for Fan Changyu but he also knows his priorities and the weight of his responsibilities. So according to Xie Zheng FCY would be safe with Li Huaian's team rather than with himself, who's constantly out there fighting.

Plus Xie Zheng is worthy of his name and title, idkw the drama didn't have any fight scenes for him. They just show one move and scene cut! Someone even asked if Xie Zheng got the title Marquis of Wu'an as his birthday gift and from the drama perspective, it looks like that only.

@bold - Say about this 😆..a general who did not fight much in show..he was mostly wounded in show 😂😂 i was like even legend of female general had much better fight scenes..here he is simply lying all the time..

Also they are saying in novel there was love triangle between song yan -changyu- xie zheng is it so ?

Also there was a thread in reddit where a user explained drama in detail as they had missed many scenes in drama..the explanation user gave for him to be in his consciousness even after getting drugged is wild 😝
