This is what happens almost all the time. There is nothing worse feeling for her than a wife who been battered by a mistress acts then the husband comes along and gives her a finishing blow. I want to hug her and comfort her so much. But I'm torturing myself reading the Empress getting such injustice until she's finally met the one that matters. Let me tell you my opinion : if a woman uses her body to wreck someone's else marriage, she's definitely not an innocent and naive woman, okay. It makes it looks like she's being bullied by the Empress. Not to mention the amount of cries she happens to summon whenever the Emperor happens to came across her and the Empress. Because of this persona she portrays in front of people, they chalk it up to "oh she's just an innocent and naive woman.", whenever she acts rude, says hurtful things, clinging to the emperor in public, grabbing attention of the other males, and keep calling the empress "Sister because we share husband." The vixen acts so cutely, naively, and innocently. Until a vixen messes with their relationship. Her relationship with the Emperor was amicable. I hope to god the author meant the ML be the other guy propose to the empress. The first chapter caught my attention right away.īecause it's satisfying seeing a slag man put in his place. It's still unknown if she's hiding more malicious intents, but so far she seems to be more or less what she says she is. She's incredibly protective over her children and only really trusts herself with them. She doesn't mind using her body and beauty, which she probably learnt as a s*ave, but she has dreams of being loved and is starving for affection and attention. Habits that served her well as a s*ave don't do her much good as a concubine (aside from evoking pity). She's not a shallow white lotus villainness who does malicious things for petty reasons, but instead a character who behaves like what her background has molded her into. Surprisingly, I find myself really sympathizing with Rashta the more I learn about her. Navier learns of the part of Sovieshu's plan where she's being divorced, triggering the actions that eventually lead to the scene in chapter 1, which I believe actually happens around chapter 80-something or so. Everyone hopes that Sovieshu dies a dog's death, what an a**hole. An attempt is made on her baby's life and people start really investigating her background.Ĭhapter 65 (ish) : Sovieshu figures out Rashta's secret and who tried to have the baby killed, and comes up with a very (very) s*upid plan to legitimize it that involves divorcing his current wife, raising Rashta to become empress until she gives birth, and then marrying Navier again. It's made clear to her that the child will not be a part of the royal family, and she starts getting desperate. Everyone hopes that Sovieshu dies a dog's death, what an a**hole.Ĭhapter 30: Rashta's old s*ave owner blackmails her and she begins to participate in politics with a friend (?) advising.Ĭhapter 45 (ish) : Rashta becomes pregnant. But it's going to be a long wait for those waiting for the translation.Ĭhapters 1-30: Navier is a punching bag, the ML arrives.

Things really start to pick up after that - secrets and schemes and blackmail oh my!, and around chapter 60 (120) I'm getting quite excited.

It's good, but the first 30 (60) or so chapters can be pretty slow. Adblock is not permitted, which is fine, but some of the ads can be very annoying and intrusive, especially on a tablet or phone.ĮDIT: So I binged and MTLed this story all the way up to chapter 70 (the translator divides chapters into half, so this is about 140-ish translation-wise). But it's quite promising, so I would definitely recommend it if it's to your taste! There is only one issue with it for me, and it's the translator's website (the actual translation is excellent). This is a pretty new novel and so there isn't a lot out yet. She's obviously going to ditch him for someone better at some point and I'm waiting while foaming at the mouth. more> with her husband's obvious honeymoonish infatuation. Meanwhile, his wife exerts unbelievable patience, putting up. The story of him and his concubine is something out of a flighty fancy fairy tale - they meet in the woods, he accidentally injured her, her innocent ways open his eyes to a whole new world outside of the schemes and political intrigues of court, Disney musical ensemble, etc etc. The Empress is a woman in an amicable arranged marriage whose husband has just acquired a new concubine. Well, I'm hooked! Every other day I wait eagerly for a chapter to be released.
