When a Scholar Meets a Concubine

[Taking concubines + pocket dimension + the martial world and the imperial court + decisive and ruthless...]

The people of the realm have drifted for half their lives, with nowhere to find peace and shelter.

The day the down-and-out scholar finally looks up, he sees a world carved up by warlords, tyrants, and bandit armies. So he throws down his brush, takes up a blade, and sets out to hunt kings. Riding across mountains and rivers, he carves a path for the poor and powerless of the realm.

I never meant to contend for the throne, but with wives and concubines by the dozen, I might as well fight to become invincible across the Eight Wastelands.
