As for the women, if they are beautiful, I am sure most of them would want to enter the forbidden city to become a concubine or maid as they don't have to make such huge sacrifice like the men do. However, I believe most of them will regret about it afterward as they learn how cruel life can be in the forbidden city. A life full of traps and sometimes the king is old and ugly. If they know the truth about the forbidden city, I believe most of them would not want to enter as there are plenty of young and handsome men around. Why would they want to fight for an emperor, sometimes even older than their own father, they don't love?
