He seen the duke as a friend and he and the empress loved each other while the empress was with the duke and the duke told him to go ahead cause he didn’t want to marry her anyway but my theory is either he was in love with the empower or he started to hate him for his view on things in the world
Did the king loved the queen or what? Did he loved the Duke or what? Or did he see the Duke as a friend or subject kinda stuff
