The Knight and Her Emperor

[Bellabelle]

So.. the 3 concubines have share the same bed with the Emperor ?

@Bellabelle Yes. The purpose is, the first concubine to produce an heir becomes an empress.

NGL, when I started reading, I signed up for romance. But honestly, it turned out way better than expected.

Pauliana trying to fit in the men's world was excellent plot. While this is still applicable to the world to day. Her discrimination was blatant.
A lot of people nowadays are subtle but it makes me think about the pioneer women who fought for their right to be recognized in their career fields in the beginning.
She could've been just as good as an ordinary soldier. However, since she is an woman, she had to work 10x harder which work very well into her favor.
I like how she earned respect from her men comrades. I like how the good deeds of other men didn't stir romantic feelings from her, too.
She can kill you but she is actually a cinnamon roll deep down. Lots of room for character development.
She's been through A LOT. I WANNA HUG HER.

Maybeee, I'm gonna have to wait for around 500 more chapters before Pauliana figures out about the emperor's feelings for her. (I mean c'mon it's been 10 years!)
I honestly don't want her to end up with the emperor. She deserved so much better.
Sure he adores her and it's cute as heck her but with politics getting in the way, he could never make her truly happy.
She does not need a man to make her happy.

In this story, you also see women whose thoughts differ from the societal gender norms and making the best out of their situation.
Despite their hardships and the common perception of drama surrounding concubines, they still show compassion towards each other.
While there might be a competition, the story notes that they were just puppets by their families and they were just fighting for their own survival.

yeah, i finished this series within 2 days. i have 10 more paragraphs in my head. 😂
man... i should probably just start a blog.

I love ch 91 and 92, it was so satisfying and empowering. We all know in the past century, women is just about bed, kitchen and producing heir. I love this manga so much 💜

DAMB this shit good bro, such a narrative too. Everything about this i love, and getting to watch these characters and watch Pauliana grow too. I shocked they can keep this going to, most stuff like this just feels dragged out but you really feel like you've know the characters for so long and bond. I cant get enough, when the next update coming?

 

[wolfcore]

man cha 91-92 really hits

 

[Irie_T]

This shit is deep... but I’m pretty sure I already know where this is going

 

[Alliyah]

dont even care abt the romance anymore, i love how the story is unfolding rn and these last few chaps esp

 

[alonymous]

This is so deep I’m loving this even more.

 

[sharkbaet]

This manhwa has the slowest burn I’ve ever seen but it’s like the good burn you get from standing under a hot shower on a winter morning.
Can’t wait for more!

 

[simpliivi]

@yanag1 LOVED your commentary!!

 

[Ryuu_Eater]

idk if i should feel sad for pauliana or feel happy for her

 

[yeejya]

This should have a josei tag. Loving the latest few chapters!

 

[khaleesirdp]

I just want Pauliana to be truly happy 🥺

 

[LaDeeDah]

I'm so glad the manhwa is different character-wise from the novel. Novel-Lucius sounds like a really shitty person.

 

[Bellabelle]

I wish Paulina will find love too somehow 🥲

 

[winterl1]

Spoiler

I feel like Rebecca just used pauline...
Is it just me???
cause its seems like she pushed pauline away because she knew that she was gonna be the crown princess or something idk???

 

[miradusa]

@winterl1 no she's just shy because of what she did say to her when she had fever

 

[ibiri]

I think I have a crush on Paulina lol

 

[Tonogu]

Honestly such a good build up and realistic plot. I'm seriously so happy I managed to stumble onto this manhwa by chance.
