Well, I somehow got so curious I checked ahead in the WN, and turns out

A while ago I looked just a bit ahead in the WN and iirc there was a scene of his father being mildly annoyed about MC messing up his plans by helping the orphans, so probably that uprizing a few years later was actually instigated by him as some evil scheme to destabilize the country or something.

The next chapter is where the heroine appears, so it'll become clear what she's like.

I don't remember if there were more details in WN, but for one, currently MC's whole plan is basically just to piss him off so much he goes and cancels the engagement out of spite. Only later when there's no progress on that she starts a more elaborate plot. Also, the one who interrupted him...

Well, the world here has a pattern of things conveniently missing for MC to invent them (board games, fictional prose, banks, etc). It isn't an uncommon cliche, but iirc this story actually lampshades it by blaming it on bad writers of the original game, i.e. supposedly their world building was...

The idea is basically they are doing an excessive amount of training not to actually train, but just to show off to neighbouring countries. She wants to propose a new way to show off. However iirc all the national level stuff is largely an excuse to quickly escalate the whole thing way beyond...

The problem is those "less flawed" systems are constantly being rigged already behind closed doors, so the plan is to make it all very public instead, and that necessitates a format that won't bore random student spectators (and which busy high officials can afford to watch themselves).

The point is that, instead of more typical patterns of trying and ultimately failing to get out of the engagement (because the reincarnator is actually nice), or complete role reversal where the OG couple are the evil scheming ones and MC is on the defence, here the MC takes the initiative to...

I think this is also one of the rare reincarnated 'otome villainesses' who is actually selfish, scheming and ruthless enough to even qualify for that title. Although the prince kinda deserves it by being an entitled brat, she is totally planning to overthrow him for entirely self-centered reasons.

Well, considering that I've been translating these manga chapters... ;) I've actually read the whole WN (minus some of the extras after the main ending) three years ago when this manga first came out. In fact, is actually discussed in the next chapter I'm translating now - they probably...

Who said that? MC herself is only absolutely necessary to allow an entitled dumbass who does nothing but act haughty and piss off people to become king, since people overlook his immature behavior because she's known to be capable enough to be able to fill in for him if push comes to shove. For...

She isn't stupid, that is prevented by In the WN that is discussed during the meeting at the start of this chapter.

IIRC from the web novel, he actually has an additional personal reason, but it's not even hinted at until after the whole engagement breaking plot is resolved. So, here's the reason why he is different from the game as mentioned in the last chapter. Since it hasn't been spelled out, I'm hiding...
