The UNNIE GUY is the real Sa Eon. But as he has psychopathic tendencies his parents abandoned him or maybe they tried to get rid of him and he survived. And they later took in ML to replace him. So that is the reason he said that he will take even the scent away from him.
may be Baek Sa Eon killed real Baek Sa Eon and his parent replace it to fake Baek Sa Eon for to make him heir…
Nah the ML wouldn’t have murdered anyone. At max it could be the real one died while he was around him. Or the guy saying he will take everything from the ML is the real Sa Eon. But as he has psychopathic tendency his parents abandoned him and took in Sa Eon who was a genius.
So, we can be sure that Qing Wang, the Eunuch, and the 5th Uncle are all colluding. Very possible the Empress…
That can explain why she did not let ML leave. Well she was not wrong in wanting him to leave the castle but as protecting the king was above all but she could have a hidden agenda as the eunuch also used her as a reason to check on the ML.
ML’s brother is also no good. He knew his father was upto something but he didn’t say anything. Now I know why ML killed both of them in the past timeline.
