After His Majesty learned to act cute, the entire court fell into disarray.
Softness overcomes strength with ease.
(All-female world, with 40% political intrigue.)
Lu Zhirou has just ascended the throne as the new emperor. She introduces new policies one after another, determined to bring peace to the world for generations to come.
But after all her scrambling and fussing for half a year, look at the court...
The left chancellor is charming and socially adept, loudly praising His Majesty's wisdom and calling out, "Long live our emperor!" In private, she says one thing and does another, smiling as she ignores her.
The right chancellor is cold-eyed, aloof, and noble. She never says a word in court, and has yet to submit a single memorial. In private, she has countless allies and wields absolute power, silently ignoring her.
The senior general is wild and unruly, quick to fly into a rage. With the military in her hands, she jumps to her feet at the slightest provocation and openly refuses to pay her any heed.
The only imperial tutor is genuinely attentive, but she's frail, liable to fall over when the wind blows, and too sickly to give her any attention.
At first glance, the court seems dazzling and magnificent. Look closer, and it's a tangled web, with obstacles at every turn...
Do you really think I was born to take whatever comes my way?
I will not let anyone threaten me.
If a beast won't behave, it needs to be disciplined.
Those who seek great things may even kill their closest kin.
The above is the persona His Majesty fashioned for herself in her dreams.
Face them head-on? She can't do that at all...
His Majesty is actually quite the wild one. Read the story to find out.
