The Emperor’s Pillowside Physician: My Consort Is a Little Wild

I have killed and bled, and reclaimed the realm that was rightfully mine from a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood. I thought my heart had long since turned to stone, until I saw her again seven years later.

I summoned her to the palace, wanting only to claim for myself, selfishly and forever, the light that once illuminated my life. But my empress seems... a little wild.

While the court discussed state affairs, she filed her nails with a small knife and suddenly cut in: “Your Majesty, instead of spending this military budget, why not buy the Imperial Medical Academy a few more cows to study anatomy?” She emptied half my private treasury just to build “the greatest surgical hospital under heaven.” And even when I wanted to be intimate with her, she would hold up a gleaming scalpel and ask seriously, “Your Majesty, would you like me to show you where the kidneys are in the human body?”

The entire court says my empress is lawless and urges me to depose her. I laughed. Lawless? I am the law! Defying heaven? I am heaven! This realm is mine, and my empress can be as wild as she likes! I spoil her. Who dares object?
