Same, they try to hype the Female lead up by making her soooo smart but she's actually just alright. For someone struggling to survive, she's okay. Not amazingly smart but just average. She says she doesn't want to be "his majesty's woman" but that's exactly what she's become, she's in conflict with her own character. Author can't decide what trope the female lead false to, either strong independent woman or damsel in distress
