Well, there's also the fact that he's the crown prince and she's just a peasant atm. While it's debatable whether he'd abuse his authority over her, you can't fault her for laying low and following her mother's advice. That she just let him get away with the bitch slap doesn't sit right with me either, but I personally have a hard time blaming her when she's in such a powerless position which completely depends on the prince's favor for her.

hmmm the position she is put in definitely makes it hard but she doesn't make it easier for herself by not saying anything when the crown prince went crazy and slapped the fl, you know he's infatuated with you so you out of all people could have talked him down b4 the situation escalated, still dont like her but we'll see how this goes
