I beg to disagree. The Marquis' son was ashamed in front of his father. I do believe his father would have managed to keep him in check because the son os as devoted toward his father than the father toward his son.
Having the ML pardon the son would have ensured the Marquis loyalty.

It would have prevented a lot of things first and not least being to prevent the Marquis from betraying him. ML's father wanted his son to take up the Crown Prince position to pardon his own friend.
See what's happening now! Had ML agreed to take the Crown Prince position that was so readily offered to him, he could have prevented all this slaughter. Hope he'll learn his lesson.
Yeah she was asking for something ( freedom) which royals never get. She doomed them all
The emperor's problem was his obsession for his wife.
Had he been more firm with her about their children's upbringing, maybe she wouldn't have been this muddled.
He wanted to give her everything while keeping her caged. But as her husband, he should have known her temperament.
In the end, her provocation cost her life and her children's peace. Her daughter would have been more strong willed and her son would have been mkre carefree.
Thank You! ML doesn't want to take the throne. So why is he fighting against the Prime Minister whose goal is…
This! And I feel they could have veered toward the FL seeming unfit to be the future emperor's woman because of her identity.
Poor Emperor - His own wife betrayed him, - His favored son doesn’t want the throne, - His daughter doesn’t know what is loyalty nor what is self-respect (she would hand over the empire to her hubby if it meant he would look her way) - His spare is the son of the woman he despise (who is herself the daughter of the man he hates) and doesn't have what it takes to be an emperor.
she should have answered, if there is a next life, let's not meet again.

He can have his revenge and take the throne. Especially since there is no one fit for the position.
Does he really care about the civilians ?
Poor Emperor
- His own wife betrayed him,
- His favored son doesn’t want the throne,
- His daughter doesn’t know what is loyalty nor what is self-respect (she would hand over the empire to her hubby if it meant he would look her way)
- His spare is the son of the woman he despise (who is herself the daughter of the man he hates) and doesn't have what it takes to be an emperor.
His dynastie will die with him.
