## Chapter
- number: 25
- release_date: 2025-03-02

### Summary
The latest chapter resolves a major cliffhanger surrounding a "last question," in which the Emperor offers concubines the choice to leave the palace. This event starkly contrasts with his subsequent actions, as he executes a spy, cementing his role as a manipulative and psychopathic "yandere" figure. Readers are deeply divided over his character; while some are repulsed by his toxicity, others are drawn to his possessive nature, particularly his declaration of the protagonist as "my woman." The execution is viewed with nuance, as many feel sympathy for the spy as a victim of circumstance, while also acknowledging the Emperor's act of sparing her family as a form of mercy. The palace intrigue escalates significantly with this death, as the spy is revealed to be connected to a character named Changcheon. Suspicions surrounding another concubine, Lili, intensify, with readers believing her choice to stay proves she is another "player" and not an NPC. The introduction of five new concubines and the questionable motives of those who remained, like the pink-haired Ingpae, set the stage for future conflict, leaving readers to praise the chapter's dramatic tension and gorgeous art while worrying that the protagonist may fall for the Emperor's dangerous charm.
