Read the novel and oh my god that Rashta is really an unburnable thrash. Every chapter, she just managed to make me hate her more and the emperor seems like an idiot when it came to Rashta. Going by their (emperor and empress) friendship from childhood, I thought he will have at least a tiny bit of trust in her but nooooo, he is just like a blind man, believing whatever lies spouted by this freaking concubine.
I salute the author for being able to make such antagonist cos I really hate her to death. Orz
Oh and Heinley is great, amazing even.
