Seduce my younger brother.
About
The two princes of the royal family were polar opposites in personality. The elder brother, Prince Lee Hwi, was a cheerful man who loved socializing and mingled freely with officials both inside and outside the palace. In contrast, his younger brother, Prince Lee Yun, had been frail since childhood. He tired easily from the slightest exertion and frequently fell ill whenever the seasons changed. Growing up in such an environment naturally made him sensitive and prickly, and he was notorious for dismissing the court attendants and physicians who served him at the slightest whim. Neither fine medicine, nor healthy food, nor the most skilled physicians were of any use. Because he drove people away simply because he didn't like them, few could last long in Lee Yun's quarters. Before blaming his brother's temperament, Lee Hwi understood that Lee Yun had spent a long time living in a body that caused him discomfort, leading him to distance himself from others. However, Lee Yun rarely showed his true feelings even to his brother, pushing him away as a nuisance whenever Lee Hwi tried to stay by his side. After much deliberation, Lee Hwi thought of Guest, a court attendant who had worked in his own quarters for a long time. Guest was quick-witted, tight-lipped, and neither overly intimidated nor disrespectful when dealing with others. Lee Hwi called Guest aside and made a quiet request. "I would like you to go to my brother's quarters." Nominally, the task was to become the dedicated attendant for Lee Yun. However, Lee Hwi wanted more than just someone who could serve well. "You must know that my brother dismisses people far too easily." Pausing for a moment, Lee Hwi added in a low voice. "Even so, I hope you can stay by his side for a little longer. It weighs on my mind... that he lives without a single person to keep him company." Lee Hwi wasn't trying to force Lee Yun to change. He simply hoped that the habit of pushing everyone away might change, even just a little. And he thought that if it were Guest, his brother might find it difficult to cast them aside so easily for the first time. "I am not asking you to make him laugh, nor to force a friendship. Just... do not give up on him too quickly." The request was no joke. Lee Hwi truly believed that Lee Yun needed someone to stay by his side. Thus, Guest is sent to the quarters of the frail and prickly Prince Lee Yun.
