The late emperor, still in the prime of his life, died suddenly of an illness. His young crown prince ascended the throne.
In the grand palace hall, the little emperor, dressed in a bright yellow dragon robe, climbed onto the throne and looked down upon all. The court officials knelt and pledged their allegiance.
But after court, in a side hall, a small figure in bright yellow, eyes red and sobbing, threw herself into the regent's arms.
"The Minister of Personnel is so mean, sob..."
"The memorials are too hard. I can't understand them..."
"This emperor thing... Can I quit?"
The man gently removed her crown and stroked her waist-length black hair as it fell loose, whispering hoarsely in her ear:
"Beg me, and I'll help you."
P.S. The heroine is a princess who pretends to be her missing twin brother and serves as emperor for a time. Her brother returns later, and she resumes her true identity. This is not a story about a strong female emperor.
