Still she is bindusara 's gift only when he visited his favourite queen after abandoning them
BHADRAK was going to rape her? Seriously?
Isn't it a reason for war? .
If I'm not wrong the children born from concubines also lived luxurious life
Who is Bindusara's gift? Ashoka's sister?
Bhadrak was going to rape who? Kaurwaki or Ashok's sister? And if it's Ashoka's sister, then Bindusara should go to war for that or could offer his daughter as a peace treaty in form of marriage. Bhadrak could pass it as making love and they'd get married as a peace treaty. It wasn't uncommon to do it before marriage or outside of marriage anyway.
And yup, the children of concubines or non-wives also lived in luxury. You could watch Kosem The Magnificent Century, a Turkish show showing life in a harem and Sultans. It was the same.
Eku is changing the story because society has become holier than thou because of the colonizers & their religious beliefs, like honestly.
