A cute love story to make you giggle

This was such a refreshing breath of fresh air. I adored the two main leads. The fl is a very intelligent character who as a strange obsession with being the country's no. 1 weakly fragile beauty, even though she is actually really strong and good at fighting. I love that at no point in the story does she loose her intelligence. The ml on the other hand is an equally intelligent crown Prince who tries to appear as a non-caring playboy good for nothing prince, while he is actually really hardworking and cares for the people deeply. These two odd pair of dorks quickly find out about the others secret and fall in love. Then the story becomes even more adorable.

I also really liked the side pairs. The first prince and the princess were such a cute pair. I also liked fl's maid/sister Yuan Wei with the ml's guard Pei Ji Huai. The constant bickering was actually enjoyable this time.

But my favorite side couple gotta be Yun Han and Du Xiu Ying (the imperial censor's granddaughter). I'm totally surprised by their chemistry. Not to mention the set up of the characters was so unique. A high ranking minister's granddaughter, who has no parents and is actually lonely yet tries her best to be kind, falls in love with a double agent who works as a courtesan and is an assassin. Such a good set up, I might even have liked them more than the main leads lol. The comedy aspect of the drama seems to not apply to this couple, it's passionate but also heartbreaking.

I liked the other characters too. The comedy really hits this time around. I found myself laughing at the jokes or giggling at the romance throught the entire thing. If you need a short dopamine rush kinda drama this is it for you.
