### Summary
The narrative currently balances a lighthearted romantic comedy with the resurgence of a serious political conspiracy. The central comedic element remains the dynamic between Carnelia and Caesar; despite their decade-long marriage, Caesar's literal adherence to a dating guide has made him comically shy and prone to fleeing from his increasingly sexually frustrated wife, a running gag that continues to amuse the audience. However, this domestic plot is now overshadowed by a renewed threat from the antagonists. Just as the empress appeared ready to abandon her ambitions, her brother, Marquis Gerald Pariam, has successfully manipulated her into continuing their plot for the throne, sparking widespread reader frustration. Their new strategy revolves around a mysterious figure named Oscar, who they intend to use as their "ace card." This has fueled intense audience speculation that Oscar is a secret royal, possibly an illegitimate son of the emperor, whose claim to the throne will be weaponized against Caesar. The revelation that Oscar is currently imprisoned has only intensified the intrigue, signaling a return to high-stakes political maneuvering that readers believed was previously resolved.
