The most prominent similarity between these two dramas is the cinematography. The camera angles, framing, blocking, color grading, visual effects, lighting, all so strikingly beautiful and well-done! The details are something to appreciate.
Aside from cinematography, they do have similarities with the mood, although not much. They both also feature strong female leads who has a secret identity.

Both Pursuit of Jade and Back from the Brink starts with a male lead and female lead who were just minding their own business until they finally meet.
A secretly powerful male lead who’s injured. A strong female lead who turns out to be someone crucial and important to them and the story. A love that looms after spending time together, which starts unintentionally.
Cinematography wise, Back from the Brink is far from Pursuit of Jade’s beauty but premise wise, there are some similarities.

Female generals rule the world! Both drama feature female lead who are military general. However, in Rebirth, we got two badass female general (Chu Qiao and Huan Huan) and more strong and capable women (Queen Lingyue, Miao Miao, and Ming Lu). Both drama involved "crazy villain" archetype, but in Rebirth every villain is a crazy beast.

Strong FML with great fighting skills
Bullied for humble background
Doesn't know her real identity
ML has a hidden identity (crown prince)

One of the greatest chemistry of all historical dramas....
Nice costumes and BGM. Their love story is a must to watch. Highly recommended.

•FML has great fighting skills ( in POJ I really love how she fights with her butcher knife)
•Family members had to die for schemes(in GTG FML's aunt had to die )
•ML has a hidden identity (has a very high position and respected, feared by all)
•Political schemes, strategies, war (In GTG war between sects and demons, among the sects)
•They get apart thinking they won't meet again
Though it's not similar, but in POJ , The side couple has a very toxic, sadistic love-hate relationship (Qi min and Yu Qian Qian) though I hate forced painful torturous relationship, but they did a great job. Yu Qian Qian's hatred towards Qi min, and Qi min's obsession towards Yu Qian Qian has added some nice spices in this drama.
The storyline of POJ is very great. I couldn't skip even a minute, I had to watch every minute of this drama because it's very addictive.
If you like strong FML and ML, great fighting, wuxia plot with journey to save the country and family, work together with friends to solve problems, and you don't mind a slow burning love then POJ is for you. 100% recommended. A must watch.
And if you love fantasy, ML chasing FML storyline with friendship, family love and protect everyone, then GTG is for you.

The main couple in Good bye My Princess shows similar chemistry to Qi Min / Yu Qianqian in POJ. Intense love-hate relationship. The chemistry of both couples is truly unforgettable. Similar to POJ, in GMP there is a captivating male lead who is literally a "walking red flag" due to his possessive, forced love behaviour, although there are sweet moments. Prepare lots of tissues for GMP..
If you like Pursuit of Jade, then you might like The Road to Glory. Both are historical romance costume dramas starring Zhang Linghe as well as the same screenwriter, Zhou Yue. Both center on a love between high ranking nobility and a commoner, seeking truth and revenge in the midst of war, battles, and palace court intrigue. In The Road to Glory, the male lead rises from the ranks to become powerful while the female lead experiences a fall from grace and goes on a mission for revenge. Their love and alliance is put to the test.
