Why is the female lead so stupid? She literally could have told the emperor that something of mine fell where I fainted can you help me look for it. The fact she ran away without a word after being in a comatose state for an extended period of time, forgetting her position as empress, had the emperor been less understanding, her servants could have all been executed due to negligence. Not to mention, she keeps avoiding asking the emperor, the one person who so far she knows doesn’t bother to lie to her face and says it how it is. She’s really a frustrating character. While strong in personality, she’s also very stupid.
