We have no idea what in the world you are talking. You are adding a lot of stuff to the story that is not there. The only thing that we know about Vashti is that she had her own banquet and she did not obey the King. Esther, on the other hand, did everything she was asked to do. The bottom line is that obedience trumps disobedience every time which falls right in line with Biblical principles. If you obey you get the crown and if you disobey you get removed fro the throne. That's what the story is about, obedience versus disobedience.
