Even then, she's not dense or ignorant or anything. In fact, she legit is kind of an asshole, even if she's helpful. She's just very very direct about things and brooks no nonsense.
Yeah I like how she's written. She is aware of and directly addresses issues and is aware that through her saintliness the heroine can resolve the same issues albeit with a different form of solution. She wants to get to the root of the issues though and also challenge the mindset from which the heroine is coming.

It's an interesting clash of a few political and social positions that aren't looked at or taken too seriously but also make the drama and ideals not as vapid as they can be in those series.

While I like the cast, I think the soft approach to the "mistaken villainess" hook doesn't have much going for it and our main girl is starting to look a bit too doofy. I've read too many angsty manwha recently, seeing a character come from an abusive environment who is so dense and good-natured that they don't even have trauma feels strange.
The catch here is that she could have trauma going on back there and absolutely implode in on herself with panic if she realizes that she has been caught in a lie and being scared of repercussions. I think its likely that it gets swept under the rug and they just move on without it but its possible we can still get that.

And now she’s dastardly reducing the king’s coffers by helping out the struggling lower classes. Such a villain, we’ve never seen.
And when she drinks tea in the study, she'll be slightly more loud to be a distraction!

she's a cutie patootie and I'm looking forward to the day she can drop the "villainess" act she revels in
