He wanted to find a queen,
a woman who could command the court and withstand temptation,
manage the imperial harem and put up with his mother,
a woman who could satisfy everyone.
She didn't need to be stunningly beautiful,
but she had to be generous and accommodating,
and exceptionally adaptable.
In this complicated, treacherous harem,
she would have to learn how to survive for a long time.
He thought he would never find her,
but then one day, he met her.
In the end
Her Majesty the Empress was on top, and His Majesty was beneath her.
A certain prince
“I thought you had only brought her here to be a queen. I never expected her to rise above everyone else, or that my heart would unknowingly draw closer to hers. Imperial Brother, you let her do as she pleased. As for the whole empire, what I can offer her is to give up everything I have held on to and stubbornly clung to. Whether you believe me or let her go, it makes no difference…”
A certain shameless man
“All this time, I've loved staying by your side. If you were a man, I'd be a woman. If you were a thug, I'd become a hoodlum with you. If you were a client at a brothel, I'd descend into the world of pleasure to suit your tastes. If you wanted revenge, I'd be the sword in your hand, helping you cut down every obstacle. You don't need to worry about me, because to me, you are my whole life. But now you want to become that man's queen. Fine, then I'll be your maid. No one is going to drive me away. Even in death…I belong to you.”
A certain miracle doctor
“Don't put the title of ‘miracle doctor reborn’ on me. I'm not what you think I am. I save people for her, and I kill people for her. Put simply, I'm a doctor for her alone. I came here because she is here. I'll watch her through happiness and hardship without interfering, but at a single word from her, I'll take her away.”
“Your Majesty, the Third Prince has come again. He ran into the Empress and fled…”
“Your Majesty, the envoys from Fengming came to provoke us, but they were beaten back!”
“Your Majesty, the Empress Dowager reprimanded the Empress and was so furious she couldn't get out of bed.”
“Your Majesty, the Fourth Prince abducted a commoner's daughter, so the Empress hung him from the city gate.”
“Your Majesty…”
“Shh…What does any of that have to do with me? The Empress and I have divided our duties clearly. She handles affairs outside the palace, and I handle those inside. I only take care of the harem.”
“You look pretty pleased with yourself. Having a great time, are you? Are you the emperor, or am I? You won't let me manage the harem, so damn it, you make me handle state affairs! Could you show a little backbone?”
“Can't be helped. The capable have to do more. We should play to our strengths and avoid our weaknesses. Besides, I…ahem…”
“Damn it, coughing up blood again! What are you, Lin Daiyu?”
“Lin Daiyu?”
“A woman of the pleasure quarters!”
“…”
Bathed in blood, she was covered in crimson, her body marked with terrible wounds.
“What are you doing this for? You're risking your life here, while he rests easy in the rear. Why should you protect his empire?!”
“He has three thousand beauties in his harem. You're just one of them!”
“Come with me, and I'll give you this realm, these splendid rivers and mountains, and a harem without a single concubine!”
“Ridiculous. What does the empire have to do with me? And what does that dead emperor have to do with me?”
“I protect my family, my friends, and my man!”
“Then what about your parents? Your hatred?”
“That's none of your business!”
As her words fell, her long sword swept out, carrying her ruthlessness, her mercilessness, and her pain!
This story is lighthearted, though it should probably be considered serious fiction. The ending is happy; the journey is what matters. Whether it's angsty or not isn't for Yue Liang to decide. Well, you'll have to see for yourselves.
