I just read the raw so I'm not sure about the details. There'll be an assassination attempt on the MC and his personal maid'll die protecting him. After that, someone'll put a blame on the ML and he'll get torture but the MC'll help and send him back to his uncle? Then there'll be a war between the North(MC's nation) and the South(ML's nation) and the North's General'll die in the said war, leading to the surrender of the North and the MC'll let himself be a hostage for his people's sake.
