i actually like the accuracy. emperors usually have concubines and an empress by his side. I like that they are showing this historical detail in the story. bonus points that they are actually nice and seem to get along with each other instead of the usual drama that you see or read about.
I don't mind the emperor getting concubines since they seem nice. Obviously they have a goal to be empress so they'll try, but they also seem nice so I think that if Pauliana becomes empress, they would be okay with it after some time.
