Uke slept with random people? Why is he acting promiscuous? Just why?
I think there is some type of sexually possessed spirit on the younger brother.
That explains if that what it is.
Read the synopsis of this story. It seems that the emperor does not love him and is only using him. Becoming the emperor concubine, only to realised he was used and meant nothing to the emperor. He is just one of the many concubines. Angsty.. Even before I start reading the novel, my heart already ache for MC.... I know it's going to be painful to read this... yet, I am drawn to angsty story.
WHATTT
It's fruitless. I have feeling baby will be broken and likely seek death by suicide. Seme maybe in the end will seek death too in hope to gain some forgiveness by Yeonjo.
OR
The toy boy friend that got Yeonjo into this situation might seek help from the other lord that used to be with Yeonjo. The lord save Yeonjo and send him away to live a new life somewhere else. While seme got distracted searching for Yeonjo and lost his fight against the opponent that he is trying to get rid in Gilju and got overturned.
Actually I think the author might introduce the new lord as as a second ML.
Yk those disposable characters that only exist to make the seme realise his true love for the uke.
We might actually get a happy ending (hopefully)
He has fallen in love with Yeonjo but have yet to realise. He thought he was just obsessed with his toy. As much as I like angsty story, I still hope for a happy ending for uke.
I think he knows that he's in love with uke but well he wanted to kill him regardless so of course he won't admit his love
Seme probably in denial. Before, he was hoping if he treat Yeonjo well enough, they can be together like that. But in the end, he could not change the fact that Yeonjo wanted to take revenge against him. Just to keep him by his side, he does not care even if he has to break him.
But I think he care, you know how he has flashbacks about their time together but he doesn't know how to keep Yeonjo by his side so he wants to keep him by his side even if it means Yeonjo will hate him.
I started the yaoi journey more than 10 years ago before korean manhwa is a thing. There are few japanese yaoi authors that I really liked. kamon saeko is one of them. I still love her art and story even now. I especially like Royal Fiance and hatsujou Animal.

Read the novel last year. The emperor has some sort of mental disorder. He does not feel empathy. Hence, he did what he did. But the emperor love uke. He change himself for him. He stopped killing and gave up his long time planning of building the grand palace/castle on where uke mother was buried. The emperor has gotten weak overtime from the toxin accumulated. Because uke has fallen in love with the emperor, he gave him the antidote. The antidote nearly cost him his own life. Due to the confliction and gulit, uke fell into depression. The emperor let him go and watch over him from afar. In the end, uke went back to the emperor as he loved him. He asked his mother for forgiveness for loving the emperor and wanted to be with him. Uke continue to live with gulit. From time to time, he would sleep walk to the same spot staring at the same distance I think where the mother is. The emperor know about this and watch over him quietly whenever he sleep walk in the palace. The end. LOL.
I wish he had been with Lord Ronhiljo instead. He is such a green flag..
Additional spoiler :
Uke does not have a name because he was born out of a human and a imae. Imae names are given by the tribe chief when a child is born but he wasn't given one as they do not acknowledge him as one of them. He was grateful towards Lord Ronhiljo but the one he love is the emperor. Sleeping with Lord Ronhiljo would mean poisoning him. That is why he rejected him. But uke let him be the one to named him instead of the emperor. Once he has a name, the name will be carve into one of his eyes. He wanted to repay Lord Ronhiljo in some way for his kindness and love towards him. Actually, the emperor has been looking forward to name him and was thinking of a perfect name for uke. Uke saw the name on a book that the emperor has wrote on. The name is the color of the purple ocean sunset that resemble the color of uke eyes. Uke loved the name from the emperor. But he still decided to let Lord Ronhiljo name him to repay him.
Inseob inner thoughts: the most beautiful thing is right infront of me. Aww.. Honestly, Inseob needs to let go. He is creating his own misery. Doesn't mean he needs to be happy with ML but at least, starts living his life.
A leopard never change it's spots. It doesn't matter he will be gone soon.
