### Summary
While Grand Prince Jin-seong's calculated purge, orchestrated alongside his volatile brother King Yeonsan, remains the central conflict, the narrative has taken an unexpected detour into a more personal struggle. The focus has shifted from the grand political bloodbath to an incident where Jin-seong has been assaulted and imprisoned, leading readers to question how a royal figure could go unrecognized by local officials. This development has seemingly paused the larger machinations, with some readers expressing surprise that an anticipated massacre did not unfold and noting the King's uncharacteristic restraint. However, the most significant new development causing audience apprehension is the introduction of a young girl who appears to have a crush on the married protagonist. This has sparked considerable backlash from readers, who strongly oppose any potential for a harem or an inappropriate romance with a minor, viewing it as a betrayal of Jin-seong's core motivation to protect his wife. The immediate tension now revolves around the anticipation of the King's violent retribution for his brother's mistreatment, balanced against widespread concern over the story's potential romantic direction.
