Tf do you mean NO???? BITCH YOU DONT FUCKING OWN HER, STOP MAKING DECISIONS FOR YOU HER TRICK ASS BITCH. The emperor needs to chill with that possessive bs
But like...he is the one with power in the relationship? Like he's the emperor, regardless of her ability he could just force her to stay with him if he really wanted to. If she runs away or something than like in the original novel he could just destroy the Duchy or something. If anything I'm shook he's trying to get her to stay using a coaxing method than just straight up forcing her to stay with her for life considering he's known as a tyrant but I guess that's just character settings for you.
