ON RUOXI AND HAE SOO DEBATE

Many call Hae soo dumb and compare her to Ruoxi and I have to emphasise , time and time again Ruoxi knew what she was getting into , knew the place, time and people.

Hae Soo did not .

Ruoxi was lucky and privileged on so many levels . Everyone knew she was different and even in the rigid institution such as the Place make allowances for her, because they find her cute and smart.

The princes , on her side trying to help and mediate for her.

Her sister, on her side , as always and she is alive for most of the drama.

The Palace servants who adore her.

Her enemies? They respect her and even make friends with her.

The King, on her side, she defies him to many times and he does punish her , but he also forgives and takes her back.

The Head Enuch, who cherishes her.

The Mongols and Princess Minmin, who cherish and forgive her.

Both eighth , fourth and fourteenth who loved her and fought for her.

The Empress, who agreed to let her have a relationship with the king, and tried to convince the Emperor to take her back.

It’s uncanny for all the realism that the story is trying to convey, that Ruoxi had this many characters supporting her, and everything was set up for her to accept and adjust into the Qing life but she still refused to accept it, because things didn’t go the way she envisioned. And by trying to stop them , recklessly, she only made things worse. She just cannot accept it , though there were little dangers and abuse awaiting her life in the palace.

Meanwhile,Hae Soo is out here , stuck in a system she neither understands or supports .

From the moment she gets there, she is always put in danger.

From being under suspicion for spying bathing princes to beating up a prince.

Nobody listened to Hae Soo, or allowed her to exercise her own free will.

When she is in the Palace, the King is quick to remind her to know her place.

She had visions from the future, that seem to hit her whenever she’s able to make a decision that the universe wouldn’t agree with it.

The princes are eager to play with her and romance her and this puts her in danger, as we can clearly see court ladies bullying her and Court lady Oh punishing her.

Jimong is eager to use her for his own benefit of making fourth prince king, but he never gives her advice on how she can live for herself.

All the princes who claim to love her impose their own will on her and expect her to take their side at everything.

Her enemies like Yeonhwa love blaming her for everything , framing her and then using her when necessary.

And she was tortured and was never treated well.

Her mother figures died early.

Everyone from water maids to the mighty royals love placing the blame on her for just about everything, beating her up and bullying her.

On top of that, two of the men she loved didn’t even understand an aota of her feelings and schemed and pushed her away because they couldn’t handle their own jealousy.

To top that, everyone was always watching her and spying on her.

Nobody even listened to her to begin with .

The question you should ask yourself is , is this women even allowed to show that she is smart?

When she is not even listened to ?

When the tiniest choice and involvement gets her framed and puts her in danger with no one on her side, is it even reasonable for someone to expect her to scheme and act arrogant, as if she’s a Royal when she’s not ?

Because, honestly there’s no point in fighting over who’s smarter without even analysing the circumstances they were put in or what privileges and choices they were afforded.

Bbjx was very much a story of how individual flaws lead to destruction and affect human relationships.

Scarlet Heart was very much a story of two flawed people who couldn’t be together because it was unconventional and too dangerous for it’s time.

Their first encounter and already 13th Prince marked her as his soulmate (he noticed she was uncharacteristic of those coming from 8th Prince’s estate). Albeit platonically, indeed the two great minds alike were predestined to be eternal BFFs.

They never explained in the drama series why 13th Prince was never romantically attracted to Ruo Xi, like they did in the book. Apparently 13th Prince’s mother was very ladylike and a gentle soul that he grew up adoring women with similar traits.

As for Ruo Xi, the fact that she showed him her fierce and fiery side during her infamous catfight-down-to-the-pond scene with Ming Yu somewhat distinguished any romantic attraction he might have had for her.

Let’s cheer for the sexy stares he showered her during their first encounter. And the next. And the next.

Two 14th Princes in one drama and I’m loving how similar each of their characters in Princess Agents is similar to the way they portrayed their version of 14th in the drama - Lin Geng Xin being serious and sometimes cold but then makes you fall in love with him anyway (i.e. Yuwen Yue) - and movie adaptation - Shawn Dou’s happy go-lucky Prince that will rip your heart out (Yan Xun).

I’m really enjoying my drama loves crossing over into each other.
