I Want You to Be the Empress's Lackey, Why the Hell Do You Become the Supreme One?

I was sentenced to death at the beginning, just because I accidentally kissed that stunning and aloof empress. Everyone thought I was dead. But she, Xia Qingyuan, the ruler of the Great Xia Dynasty, the woman who regarded all things as stupid dogs, gave me a chance to survive. The price is to become her most loyal and most shameless "dog". I have no choice. So, I became her sharpest knife, killing all enemies in court; I became her strongest shield, blocking all open and hidden arrows. I solved natural disasters for her and fed tens of millions of victims with the "poisonous" cassava, which astonished the civil and military officials of the entire court. I filled the treasury for her, and used business methods that transcended the times to plunder the wealth of the enemy country. I opened up territory for her and used incredible tactics to win over the barbarians from all directions. Step by step, I went from being on death row to being in power. The civil and military officials of the entire dynasty fear me like a tiger, and the people of the world respect me like a god. They all said that I was the most favored official around the empress. Only I know that every time I was called into the bedroom by her late at night, I would be greeted by those cold and piercing phoenix eyes filled with scrutiny and suspicion. "Lin Fan, your ability scares me." "Lin Fan, your contribution has almost surpassed mine." "Lin Fan, tell me, what do you want?" How should I answer this beautiful queen who is both dependent on me and also afraid of me, and has complicated feelings for me? That I just want to be a lackey? She didn't believe it. Say I want this supreme position? No, I'm not interested in the throne. What I want, from beginning to end, is you sitting high on the throne. Make you a lackey? Sorry, I'm here to conquer you!
