Well, i get your point. But that doesnt mean he cant do anything tho. I think it's not that trouble to use his little authority to point out her fault which is enough for a beheaded punishment. I mean, her doing is waaayy too much, it almost feels like an open secret for the aristocrats. Even he himself has a lot of evidence to do that. I think he can deff do it if he want to, but he chooses to be a stupid man
For the heir reason, the queen is not yet checked, so i think if you use that reason to become a royal concubine, its just not that valid tho¯_ಠ_ಠ_/¯
Yup, its the queen. But imo the emperor have enough evidence. He could just take it from the Duke/her Ally with a spies or something, its not that difficult thing for him. Of course, he could claim himself that the red girl is threatening him. He's just too soft hearted that its almost look so stupid
the emperor is simply just the most stupid idiot male lead i've ever read so far. I mean, you're the EMPEROR, you have the authority to do anything you want if you have enough reason. Well if its not enough, then make some yourself! That mf really made me mad poor our patrizia(/TДT)/
