That scene if her looking down with cold eyes at her servant when she talked about the empress kinda got me confused... like is she angry at the empress or is she angry at the servant for trash talking the empress??
So in that scene, I believe she looked coldly because the servant was bad mouthing the empress, I think the mistress might have a slight girl crush on the empress,shes always been nice & sweet to her,the empress would really be considered her first friend cause the rest of the girls hate her guts, she also has put the empress on a bit of a high shelf ,I kinda wish this would be little more yuri-ish
I feel like she should have taken the title and like in the future when she have kids the second child can reclaim Albert's title or some shit
Succession for heirship and titles is a literal one and done. There is no second chances, no "I will rethink this later", no "Damn. I want my title back" years later. Once the papers for disqualification and for renouncing your right to the title to are given to the proper authorities and then later, the ruling royalty, there is no going back. The only way someone has a chance second chance at a title they renounced is if and only if, there are fears that line will die out and if your bloodline is beneficial to the kingdom, the ruling royalty will give a second chance to a renouncer. But that's means everyone else in line for that title has to be either dead, not fit for the title, or disqualified. For that to scenario to happen is very rare.
If only her next line would be " torture her and execute her" or smth like " since u want to talk about fertility I'll make u prove that u can conceive " and proceed to give a royal command for some begger to sleep with her KEKEKKEKEE
