Help me find this please, a former idol trainee and a swimmer aiming for the olympics.
Looking for that bl in which mc was a servant beaten for helping his master to elope but failed, and got sold to ML for bags of rice. Mc's brother is also obsessed with him.
It was Empress x Lumiere. Then to keep the Empress in check and as if he was low key jealous, Emperor "fell in love" with Lumiere and made her a concubine and got her pregnant. Now, to remove the only thing connecting Lumiere to the Emperor, so that the Empress can have her all to herself, she planned on killing Saphir, but Lumiere being the kind and sweet person that she is + it's her own son the Empress was trying to kill, ate the poison food herself. And now, Empress is just projecting her affection for Lumiere to Saphir. Though the Emperor hasn't made an appearance yet, so we'll see.
right? I thought so too, she clearly seems inlove with Lumiere #－.－)
