Cant blame the emperor...
I mean, he knew from the beginning their child is still alive even in the OG story (but was brainwashed or they no longer had any hope), for 6 years he was searching for her nonstop. For 6 years, he was thinking where else he could find her. And for 6 years, he had to hesitate whether to doubt or not the lies that the empress spewed. This kind of misunderstanding pains me, seeing the Biological father finally reunited with his lost child only to find out she was happy with someone else.
>>Possible Spoiler<<
Though, I have a feeling that the royal family wont be able to successfully get her back since MC's heart is on the Grand Duchy Household now. I mean, the royal family (her father and brother) will still protect her and see her as a family (and maybe help the grand duchy just for their lost family, aka MC) but MC already chose the Grand Duchy Family (and obv she didnt regret that choice. Btw this is just my "what-if" spoiler of this story).
In short, the ending will obviously be a happy ending with the Grand Duchy as her legal family and maybe Royal family as her legal guardian. (once again this is just a "what-if")
