I meant to like! I fully agree and its why i love this one! Its just people being people and everyone but the fl is doing everything grab and hold onto things they believe make them happy. And thats what makes whats coming so exciting because we get to watch this selfless being surrounded by greedy people, finally reach out for her own happiness! And i hope she gets pregnant too dammit! Cherry on the cake.... i still wanna watch the empire that took her for granted crumble.. just a lil
So I hate the emperor and trashta, however... if the emperor and the empress had communicated properly, I could have seen the story being a lot different. The emperor has already shown that he has a lot of faith in the empress, so if she’d actually fully defended herself, and shown a little emotion I believe things would have turned out differently. It pains me to say this, but they’re two people who would have made a solid power couple IF they’d shared the same love language. If you’ve read the novels then no spoilers, if you haven’t then spoilers-
The scenes where they’re children is kind of sad, they had a very cute and strong relationship that could have grown and blossomed but they just didn’t share the same emotional needs as each other in adulthood. Our empress is very serious and shows her love through her work, she’s basically a workaholic and the emperor is the housewife that is desperate for some love. He has the uttermost faith in the fl but he’s to ...needy. And he makes stupid stupid decisions in desperation. I don’t pity him at all...I just like to understand each character . If they’d sorted out their communication I think trashta would have become a forgotten mistress. One who birthed a child and was sent away. Then banished once everything came out. It’s the fact that there was the rift between the emperor and empress that gave trashta the wedge she needed.
As much as I love the fl love interest I think he’s the “perfect” man. He’s bold and outspoken, daring and ballsy. He’s the man that she needs. He’ll call her out on her bullcacky and demand the love he deserves lol. This story is basically how two childhood sweethearts couldn’t call it quits once they’d outgrown each other.
