The people who imsulted the ml did you all actually read past fl's point of view? Because of you have youwill clearly see that even tho ml has difficulty expressing himself he is the one who make more effort in their relationship then her, she's the one who kept sending him signals and when he want them to be like real couple or is really nice to her she will put up a wall. She always distancing herself from him, like when ml try to act on his feeling for her she will stop it and be like "no I don't want to fall in love" and then later be like "why doesn't ml love me" and make assumptions on her own

I'm sorry but her running away is like the dumbest idea she came up with in the whole story. She's the empress they are still not divorced and their relationship is a little better so what makes her think he won't search for her, the whole empire would be in chaos if the empress just disappeared out of nowhere
I just start reading this but come on is fl stupid or what? If her sister becomes queen she will execute her either way so why not take the position and get ride of them? And the king he can literally framed the walker family (fl family) and execute them and have power back the thing is he doesn't even have to frame them they openly do evil stuff and are not even trying to hide it. This could have been a godo story but the execution is flawed and the fl is portrayed as smart and strong but she's stupid and shit herself whenever her sister just looked at her, she doesn't even have a personality just like the rest of the characters.
