That Emperor Is Super Cute

This is a terrible world, and a three-way dynasty on the verge of collapse. And to top it all off, I’ve become the emperor...

To be precise, I transmigrated into this world and replaced the original person who was supposed to be emperor.

And the original person’s biggest secret wasn’t that she had killed the previous emperor. It was that she had become emperor by disguising herself as a man...

But the original person had felt powerless in a world like this, with its three-way dynasty on the verge of collapse, and had even considered taking her own life. Maybe that was why I came here and took her place.

But I’m nowhere near as capable as she was. The first thing I wanted to do after arriving was find someone I could confide in, someone who could soothe my fear and anxiety. So I told everything to the personal maid who had been by my side lately, a maid whose own status meant she would die if I did.

Instead, she grabbed me by the throat and shouted,

“Are you trying to get me killed!?”

That was when I learned that the three-way court had a fourth faction, whose power was the weakest, but whose ambitions were the most insane...

Later, after the realm had stabilized and the divided court had all become mine, the personal maid who had once tried to strangle me was meekly washing my feet.

It wasn’t because she feared my power. After all, she had helped me stabilize the court. But now I have something I can use to keep her in line.

For example,

if she makes me unhappy, I’ll say I want to marry an empress, and then she’ll obediently apologize to me~
