### Summary
The current chapter delves into the Emperor's tragic past, revealing he once had six beloved siblings, including a Crown Prince, who are now all deceased. This heartbreaking backstory, symbolized by six memorial tablets, has generated significant reader sympathy and provides a potential explanation for his manipulative and dual-sided personality. Speculation is rampant that the Dowager Empress orchestrated the deaths of the other royal heirs, possibly in a fire, to secure the throne for her son, which would explain their strained relationship. This has also led to a new theory that the young princess is not the Emperor's daughter, but his niece, whom he is protecting in memory of his late brother. Meanwhile, the dynamic between Yona (Ranhee) and the Emperor's disguised 'Sunshine' persona intensifies, with readers noting that she is beginning to fall for him while remaining comically oblivious to his true identity despite several clues. The other known game player, Lili, continues to be a source of irritation for readers due to her smug and antagonistic behavior. The revelations have deepened the central conflict for readers, who remain divided on the Emperor; while many are captivated by his tragic history and 'Sunshine' alter-ego, others remain wary of his duplicity and question his suitability as the male lead.
