Biggest "evil isn't born, it's made" picture I've ever seen
He became obsessed with the singular person who showed him unconditional kindness; and I get it.
Sam-myeong's kindness literally got imprinted on him and Sam-myeong was and probably still is the only person that has been kind to him or genuinely was happy to be in his presence (*cough* *cough* before, ya know)
He treats the people that serve him like less that human because they did that to him, and believes that everyone would do the same thing like the servants from his childhood, if they were in their place. And only believes that Sam-myeong can give true kindness
Can't believe I still have to keep disclaiming that I don't endorse what he's doing nor does his past wipe away his current actions, before someone decides that I'm saying "sad backstory = crimes forgiven"

So basically, the emperor is bullying another noble and essentially stealing from them because he has higher authority
Yeah, just use that pretense to get the other nobles on your said; if he can try and do that to one noble, what's to say he won't try and do it to another
Hell, call up former empress as back up
