### Summary
Following the intimate encounter of the previous chapter, the narrative shifts to introduce significant external and internal conflicts. Court Lady Eun-Woo becomes the target of petty bullying from jealous court ladies, who shred her clothes in retaliation for the favor she has received from the Crown Prince. Simultaneously, the chapter delves into the source of Crown Prince Lee Hyun's deep-seated trauma. Through a consultation with a wise and patient royal physician, it is heavily implied that the Prince was abducted and tortured as a child. Reader commentary suggests that flashbacks and dialogue point towards the King, his own father, as the one who orchestrated the attack. The physician, acting much like a modern psychologist, diagnoses the Prince's condition as a form of repressed memory and PTSD, explaining that he must confront his fears to truly heal. However, Lee Hyun reacts to this truth with aggression, throwing an object at the doctor. This hostile response is understood by readers as a defense mechanism, stemming from both his trauma and the immense pressure for a royal to never show weakness. The chapter thus moves from a focus on physical and emotional connection to the harsh realities of courtly jealousy and the Prince's devastating psychological scars.
