honestly I understand the first queen’s feelings. she was brought up as the the ml’s fiancé and she’s known him longer. They having a loving relationship with each other as well. just imagine that you’re in a relationship with your husband but all of a sudden a mistress is taken into the relationship. I get that polygamy was common back in those days but it still hurts to see your lover love another. now imagine the mistress giving birth to a boy. Something you so dearly wished to do. Obviously you would feel threatened and scared too. So I get where the first queen is coming from. It’s honestly quite sad because where the pace is going. It’s likely that the first queen will be thrown away by the ml. The first queen gave her everything to him except for a child. I feel really bad for her. But the only thing unacceptable is the fact that she thinks the “dirty blood” inside of prince Louis should be eradicated. I agree that her views on the royal family having “pure blood” are a little crazy and it’s not her fault since she was raised that way. I just find it a little sad that in the end, she will probably not be as loved as the mc. It’s probably because I think of the first queen in the perspective of Navier from Remarried Empress. She loved the ml first and spent the longest time with him but eventually she will be discarded because she’s not the mc of the story and she couldn’t give birth. :( well that’s just my opinion

Yeah at this rate Ml is gonna end up with the second queen. Instead of her just blatantly getting thrown away though, I feel like her mental state is gradually going to worsen while the Ml gets closer to the second queen. Because of her deteriorating mental health, she'll become obsessed with the prince's blood line which will upset ML because he has a filthy blood line according to their society as well

She doesn't feel threatened or scared, she's a bigot racist that believes the king is tainted and she wanted to purify his descendants with her pureblood. Due to the decades of incest, she's having issues conceiving a healthy child.
Berta came in, who is not a pureblood and had no issue having a child with the king, and now she feels disgusted by the crown prince and is wondering how many generations it will take to wash out his "dirty" blood. She's plain old racist, no saving for her and her people.
This is not similar to Remarried Empress at all.

The first point is invalid because what is the difference between Berta and the maids the 1st Queen shoved to the ML to be impregnated? Why she thinks maids are okay but Berta not okay? She knows very well that the ML is wrapped in her hand (even accepted her request to sleep with her maids), so the thing she hates is the 'dirty' blood, not that there is another woman.

This is why I don't pity her lol. She doesn't care about the king being taken from her. She's worried about the "blood" that will rule the country. The "purity" of the line. It never once said in her POV that she loves him for hlwho he is. She even thinks the king himself is dirty and her duty is to purify the line. Wtf

After reading a spoiler thread, I’m so upset knowing who she’ll end up with

Ren, the redhead Duke will be the Ml. After they’ve spenders time together, he will ask Mc to become his duchess. She obviously says yes. What makes me so sad was that Mc knew Lesta liked her but she was unsure of how she felt about him. I really wanted her to be with Lesta too. But unfortunately he’s not part of royalty or nobility so it’s most likely that the author wouldn’t choose him as the Ml since the Ml is usually someone with a lot of political power
I’m glad his friends aren’t total ducks and have some common sense. If they had agreed “yeah yeah we’ll make him pay” I would’ve lost my shit
