So far this is my input about this story line:
chapter 92 - Li (MC) and Eon ( ML) meet at the Lilac tree, Li inner thoughts ( says to herself that she won't be proud ), and asks him to take her back to the palace and tells ML to make the one step to her just as she made the step to go close to him.(writing like this was more deep ). She says about the rumors and realized he's making SFL the queen and for her to stay put for some time and to not provoke him any more, to wait for him, his going to take her to the palace and then she will be by his side ( personal note: he's going to make her the queen and he's going to take care of those ministers in the government??) She gets mad saying that he's taking her to the Harem with other women and she won't allow it, she will go to the palace as the queen and asks him to take the step to be close together. He's getting anxious for not convince her to go back to him and to wait until he makes her the queen again. At this point he grabs her panicking, saying ONLY HER, HE WILL NOT LET GO. ONLY HER HE CAN NOT LOSE. He won't let anyone to stop her returning to the palace, that he leave government events just to meet her. At the end she goes, I most be the Queen to return at the palace. She told him about her being in a relationship with other man, would he care or if she die? Chapter 92 ending when she asks him to just one time, just for once to allow her and then she kissed him.
Chapter 96 & 97 - MC was told about SFL getting the queen's title and she questioned her father what is the emperor motives giving SFL the title of queen. After she goes back to her residence, she cuts some of her hair, write a note with the bracelet of the First Queen - ML mother and send it to the Emperor (ML). He gets mad saying that's another of her tricks to manipulate him to do as she please. If I'm not mistaking, she wants for the emperor not to protect/send guards to her. He's so mad thinking that she is so proud and there is still haft a month for the ceremony!! don't know if that is for the SFL to get her queen tittle.??? Really he didn't explain that part?? So emperor sends word to her saying he burned everything she sent to him. Chapter 96 ends with her thinking to herself that she would take the love she has for him out of her heart and she would not care for him no more.
Chapter 97 MC comes to realize what the emperor actions are, petty SFL (technical speaking SFL is weak and needs help but MC is strong and doesn't need help or ask any.) this chapter ends with MC confronting her father about what's behind ML doing or why is he doing, later at the end she tells her father that she has to go somewhere.
Sadly chapter 100 of the Wicked queen was out and in that chapter is the end of the MC, she gets burn tie to a tree and in the final moment of her life she see ML waiting at the Lilac tree telling her not to cry.
chapter 101 - ML rushes to MC residence, he recalls MC maid with others seriously wounded. ML is taking to see MC's father who is also seriously sick (ill), in there he was told MC was burn to death.
chapter 102 - we get to see ML on denial,sad,going insane, he orders the servants to open the MC residence and sits in there saying that she's there and he won't let her go then gets mad saying why she die without him or why she die first than him or so. The chapter ended with him taking a woman to his chambers and only thinking of his lilac flower blossom (MC) in his inner thoughts ( talking to himself even if he calls her name, even if he calls her out she won't come to him, he gets so upset that she is no longer there with him.)

The MC and ML grew up together and the main point in their relationship from when they were kids up to their adulthood is that the MC loves the ML but is never able to express it properly. She bullied the ML and acted bratty when they were young because she wanted to gain his attention and this continues even when she enters the palace as one of his official concubines (the ML who is the emperor is allowed to have as many concubines as he wants but only one empress and at this point he hasn't made anyone the empress yet) where she bullies other concubines out of jealousy. Her behaviour and often cruel actions towards the other concubines are her way of getting ML's attention and should have gotten her punished severely but the ML, who secretly loves MC but doesn't realize or know how to express it, lets her continue her ways and only gives her light punishments (basically spoiling her). Like you said she also bullies the SFL and though the ML doesn't love the SFL, he likes her gentle personality compared to what he thinks is the evil and fiery attitude of the MC. He also mistook the SFL as the one who nursed him back to health when in fact it was the MC who did so that also adds to his 'reasons' for liking the SFL.

The MC was not taken to the cold palace. Her father basically saw how obsessed his daughter was with the emperor and how unhealthy her love was especially because the ML could never reciprocate her love, so her father begged the ML to let the MC go if she ever does something unforgivable. The ML 'kicked out' the MC from the palace for her bullying the SFL when in actuality he was trying to give her freedom as per her father's wishes. The MC became really depressed from missing the ML and got sick both physically and mentally before finally getting better but the ML who missed the MC secretly searched for her outside the palace. MC's father lied to the ML that MC was happy outside the palace. ML realized he's always loved the MC but the MC said it was too late. ML's mother and MC's father pushes the ML to make SFL the empress and he relents despite wanting the MC back. MC hears the news and wants to claim the position as the empress that was promised to her before she was kicked out of the palace, as well as claim ML's love. ML tells her hes going to take her back to the palace and make her his woman again but only AFTER the SFL becomes empress. MC says she'll only go back to his side as the empress and tries to persuade ML.

Thats what i got up to so far with the released chapters. Both the ML and MC just cant let each other go despite being toxic for each other LOL im scared to see what will happened because the novel spoilers says she dies in fire but lets hope not because i want MC to get her happy ending
