The sudden historical setting, from my guess, is a 'side AU'. I've seen it more often in BL, where authors will sometimes insert an alternative univerise or fun side story. an example in in Jinx, where the plot went medieval for the side chars. It's almost like a form of hiatus or break in the main story.
That said i like the MC quite a bit. Did NOT enjoy the pacing. They have sex every other chapter(repetitive ones too), while hinting at something really convoluted in their shared backstory. I personally ENJOY hints at the back story, but the pacing was off. We were getting crumbs for 80 chapters straight bc half of it was filled with smut. Then suddenly we get a ton of complicated backstory that doesnt even make much sense.
