### Summary
The narrative focus shifts dramatically from Eun-Woo's past suffering to the immense political and familial pressure faced by Crown Prince Lee Hyun. The current chapter exposes the deeply antagonistic relationship between the Prince and his father, the King, who is vehemently condemned by readers as petty, incompetent, and dangerously jealous of his own son's accomplishments. Commentary indicates the King openly sides with his son's political enemies—a group of "trashy old men"—and publicly humiliates Lee Hyun, despite the Prince's success in winning a war and gaining the people's favor. This hostile environment, where Lee Hyun is surrounded by enemies and betrayed by his own father, elicits strong sympathy from readers, who now see this constant stress as the root of his harsh and seemingly insane demeanor. They perceive his cruelty as a tragic consequence of a life under constant threat, with his only trusted ally appearing to be a figure named Hyul. This context provides a critical explanation for the Prince's difficult personality, reframing him as a tormented figure struggling for survival within a corrupt court.
