They All Love Me, but I Love Only the Empire

When Zhao Wanrou wrested the throne from her brothers, the old guard refused to accept her, and the royal family began to stir. She suppresses powerful officials, builds a loyal inner circle, and takes hold of both the realm and its handsome men. A political machine, a monster of power, she climbs step by step to the very top. Drunk with handsome men at her side, she holds the power of the realm in her hands. The sensitive, insecure eunuch, the “Nine-Thousand-Year-Old”: “Your Majesty, I am both the blade in your hand and the eyes of the former dynasty.” The loyal, rugged military champion and guard: “I am willing to give my life for Your Majesty, serving you as an ox or horse in this life and every life to come.” The gentle, scheming teacher and chancellor who served two dynasties: “Don’t be afraid, Your Majesty. I will protect you, and make sure everything goes smoothly so you can live a peaceful, carefree life.” The jealous, possessive frontier general: “Anyone who dares disrespect Your Majesty can find out first whether my sword is sharp.” Zhao Wanrou is a master flirt with one woman and multiple men, indulging them in turn. With four top-tier hopeless romantics around her, every day is a battlefield of romantic rivals.
