Well, let's go... this manhwa in my opinion is an incredible work, well written and elaborated characters, complex plots, but simple to be followed by the reader, the twists are wonderful, and the protagonist is amazing, there is only one word to describe it: PERFECT, the villain, she perfectly fulfills her role, in my view this work shows the other side of josei and shoujo historical romance manhwas, where it shows the side of the empress and not the emperor's new romantic interest as in other manhwas (in the others the characters who occupy the role of the rasta are heroines while the empress is ... the evil one), that is, bringing a different vision from other works, a great read, it has a slow pace, but a good development.

Bom vamos lá... esse manhwa na minha opnião é uma obra incrivel, personagens bem escritos e elaborados, tramas complexas, mas simples de serem acompanhados pelo leitro, as reviravoltas são maravilhosas, e sobra a protagonista, só tem uma palavra pra descrever PERFEITA, a vilã, cumpre perfeitamente o seu papel, na minha visão essa obra mostra o outro lado dos manhwas josei e shoujo de romance historico, onde mostra o lado da imperatriz e não do novo interesse romantico do imperador com em outros manhwas (nos outros as personagens que ocupam o papel da rasta são heroinas enquanto a imperatriz é a malvada), ou seja trazendo uma visão diferente de outras obras, uma otima leituram tem seu ritmo lento, mas um bom desenvolvimento.

I think the problem with this webtoon (and more generally with all historical webtoons) is that it's really long. We have a prologue where it is announced that the empress is going to divorce her chapter and when we start the story, it takes 80 CHAPTERS for her to get divorced, something we already knew was going to happen. I understand the need for context and so on, but this was too much. And then, I find that there are too many plots started for the webtoon to end soon and I'm seriously starting to wonder if I'm going to continue reading it.
The story ... is interesting, the drawings are beautiful... but there's a problem of speed in this webtoon which is starting to get on my nerves.

I think this isn't a popular opinion, but I can't enjoy this story at all. I also don't think Rashta is as bad as people say she is. If anything the Empress, if this was real life, would be the villain.

I started thinking this way when Rashta's origins were revealed and the characters reactions were appalling to say the least. No one was shocked or disgusted by the fact that slavery existed in their kingdom, not even the Empress our heroine, but instead saw it as an embarrassment for Rashta. How is her being a slave embarrassing, but not embarrassing for the Emperor or the ... Empress that they allowed slavery in their kingdom. How quickly people turned Rashta's suffering into an insult was disgusting. How can I root for the Empress if her people are so awful. And if I'm to believe that the Empress doesn't see a problem with people owning slaves, as she's is pretty nonchalant about it, then I can't see her as a good person. And I can't blame Rashta for wanting to get out of that bad situation, even if it makes her a mistress.

The Empress even remarks and belittles Rashta for her lack of knowledge, which she knows is because Rashta was born a slave. That's extremely classist and elitist of her. In this era of 'tax the rich' I'm really surprised at this webtoon's popularity.

People may argue it's for realism that the Empress acts this way, but people turn into the birds in this webtoon. So magic is allowed to exist, but our Empress has to have old-fashioned classist views. Great thanks, I hate it here.
