It's not unheard of for a queen to adopt/claim a concubine's child as her own, especially if she's unable to have a child herself. In other cultures the queen/empress even celebrates when a concubine has a boy child with the king/emperor for the sake of strengthening the dynasty.
History was really, really shitty towards women whether high- or low-ranking. Their worth is only measured through their ability to have (male) children.
That said, for Sovieshu to force Navier to acknowledge or even claim the child as "theirs" is uncalled for and assholish.
i understand and i am aware it isnt unheard of i just hated with my entire soul the manner in which he said it. Yes the empress could celebrate the child of trashta. But if you look at everything she went through. how much of a face she had to put on to seem fine after being hurt and beaten by her husband. Why should she?
It sounded like a command and he didnt even try to have the conversation in private with his wife instead he spat on her face infront of kafman. that is an insult in itself.
IKR! Airing out filthy, dirty, unwashed, trashy laundry in front of a foreign dignitary to add insult to injury. Sovieshu constantly humiliates and disrespects Navier and he still expects her to be head over heels for him??? And he even has the balls to act resentful that she only visits him when she needs to discuss something with him. Sovieshit is ASKING to catch these hands!
The Emperor did not just fucking say ¨Trashtaś baby is our baby, the Imperial families baby¨ I read that shit 7 times. and hoped it was a whole typo. Is he fucking stupid? You want the empress to celebrate the baby your having with your whore? Are you fucking insane. Your asking your WIFE! to accept your side bitches baby as her own. I´m done.... He crossed the whole sea just now.
Now that my anger is out. I tried to sympathize with the emperor even though he didnt deserve it. but i can not. he crossed a boundary no one should. 1 your first baby isnt even with the empress of your country but with your whore? 2 you insult and belittle your wife who is faithful to you, despite not loving you and everything you put her through still looks out for your country and its people.....
Sir you are disrespectful.....
