I find the storyline intriguing with the FL pretending to be weak and meek damsel; this is due to political overtones of being the only daughter of a very successful and much envied and feared general.
I personally like Jeremy Tsui especially in the period part of Be my princess as the Grand Tutor. However what blew me away is the chemistry and interactions as well as antics of Princess Hua Luili. She is a strong FL and with a mind of her own which I much preferred to some of the C drama FL.
She is the quintessential “tiger” pretending to be a tabby cat. She is well versed in martial arts but pretends to be an unknowledgeable novice… though this leads to much hilarity after she slaughtered all her kidnappers and try to pass all credits to the ingenious Princess Jiamin is just very funny and unbelievable at the same time.
For those who enjoy a good rom com with good acting thrown in and decent production for what is likely a low budget drama ; go ahead , enjoy and indulge. You won’t regret though no major kiss scenes but the chemistry makes up for that.
