As far as I remember, I read that 'if' she could fix their not so good relationship so I guess the book didn't said something that will favor the crown prince.
Uh i mean when the start of the story like when he's reading it for her? Like in chapter 1, he said, she will be the empress. But uh i guess i will wait for the update
I think that's just how Elizabeth treated Ashuelot in the past? Their first encounter wasn't good and they treated each other as enemies but they're more of like frenemies. As for the crown prince, didn't she actually became the empress? So technically, they're the ML and FL if it was a novel. She mentioned not actually wanting any of that tho (being the empress, being the guardian of the world, etc).
Also, I am 100% sure Elizabeth read the novel and the crown prince got her approval so I don't think he's manipulating the story.
Oh okay
So probably the crown prince write in the book that they are inlove(?) With each other, the crown prince is the ml and she's the fl. And the crown prince also referred Ash as the benefactor and an enemy. Like he's manipulating it because he love her or something like that but the story art been telling me that he's a good boy so, so far good stuff
