Ashlee, we can't just say she is a good or bad person. She was a successful ruler but not a good mother. She took severe methods to oppress those who were against her so that she could sit on the throne steadily. However, it's admitted that she ruled the country well.

Yes, there are some sayings that claim she strangled her daughter and poisoned her eldest son. However, there is no sound evidence. But she was not a good mother, indeed.
