I think the good one was the rich guy and the poor guy in the beginning was part of the “good” king part (because he helped others and cared about the servant as well as changing some stuff when he pretended to be the emperor) but after the rich brother died and he took over driven by revenge he became a tyrant.
Why do I think the rich one was the good king (mostly)?
Because he cared for his people and his country even tho the governors were corrupt. He did his best to rule but he didn’t know how his people lived and those officers/governors was in the way. Idk why he didn’t change things for the benefit of the people like the butcher brother did. Force and reason. But ig if what I said earlier about the rich brother not knowing how is people lived is true I can see why he didn’t/couldn’t change much when he doesn’t know much about how they live what they’re like and if they’re actually trustful (the officials that are ruling the province). Or the rich brother couldn’t do much because of the power of the noble families and stuff.
But the tyrant is definitely the butcher brother and I’m like 98% sure the good king was the rich brother plus the butcher brother in the beginning before his brother was killed.
(The mentioned how the good king changed into a tyrant I think they mentioned that it was a sudden change? So the change was between the brothers I think)
It's mixed up on me so... Who is the good king and who's not?
Was the one raised rich the one who reduced his meal or the one that was raised poor?
I can tell the poor one who's going to get killed eventually, but if the rich one was the good one did he empathized with the ppl because he saw his brother?? That part is just so confusing to me
