It has to go to parliament and then the nobles will make their decision and then the royals can decide yay or nay and can veto really stupid decisions but if you arbitrarily decide then you’re a tyrant and someone WILL try to usurp your throne. He’s a very very intelligent king and emperor and wouldn’t allow anything to get in the way of his reign especially not a woman. He views her as a toy and a pawn. She’s better off staying the dowager duchess and amassing allies and power and then taking it to parliament herself. She’d have a far better chance of changing the laws in that manner.
