In their previous life, crown prince didn't exist or maybe another crown prince was there, but certainly not the current one. Cp is a real innocent child, he loves MC, maybe as a parent or a friend? Sometimes he looks like a baby chick following MC.
In their current life, crown prince went and pulled MC's hair, he then went to the emperor and made the Emperor realise what he was missing out again, MC's hair or MC himself is his treasure and finally tells MC that he will cherish MC unlike his previous self, so MC realized yet again that he was different from before.
Later when MC and CP went to catch birds, MC finally understood what Emperor was thinking through the crown prince, because cp loved birds he wanted to cage it... Ugh... And maybe Emperor just wanted to love him, but just didn't his actions were wrong, is what mc kinda thought.
These encounters resulted to MC finally accepting Emperor's changes... Knowing the Emperor is just a lunatic who can't feel pain, so he didn't know it was painful. Honestly, this part sounds like nonsense.
So basically, CP unintentionally helped his lunatic father win MC's forgiveness.
