The Legend Of A Male Empress
Episode 1: The Palace
Huan
💬 I was captured by the soldiers of the Great Tang Dynasty after invading my beloved town
Huan
💬 Growing up without parents is tough, and I barely survive this past 16 years...what misfortune will fall to me..
[Current Empress] Fang
Your Majesty, It's already time to get new concubines to secure the bloodline of the dynasty.
[Emperor] Jun
Yes, and I want you to be in-charge of the selection process, I know I can count on you.
[Current Empress] Fang
Consider it as done, Your Majesty.
[Emperor] Jun
Hmm..good, Now I wonder, have you seen Ming?
[Current Empress] Fang
*Gloomy* *Frowned* No. I haven't.
[Emperor] Jun
*Notice* As an Empress you should be an example of what a wife should act. Don't let your emotions control you!
[Current Empress] Fang
With all due respect, I remained obedient and loyal to you and the empire, I sacrifice my happiness for you and her Majesty, I didn't even complain even my job is hard, being a treasurer and managing the Harem affairs is a challenging job, yet your favorite always disobey me when it comes to expenses, Harems' debt is continuously rising everyday due to your favorite's expenses!
[Current Empress] Fang
*Bows* *Leaves*
[Emperor] Jun
I-I'm sorry...

Episode 2: 1st Test?!
ALL OF THE CANDIDATES WAS TAKEN TO THE HALL OF TRANQUILITY FOR THE FIRST TEST
[Current Empress] Fang
The 1st Test is Physical Examination, it will check your odor, deformities, virginity, appearance, habits, and your mannerisms
Huan
💬Hmm....looks like there is no turning back, judging from the servants' actions earlier it's possible that bloodbath in the palace is common, and to only survive is to get the Emeperor's affection
Huan
💬 Now I know this person, isn't this the Empress?! He's so beautiful, and he's emitting an elegant and graceful aura, what does it feel like sitting beside him...
[Current Empress] Fang
Start the test.
Maid/Servant
Yes your Majesty. Let's go, please undress yourselves.

*Sigh* *Sad* Either become a Eunuch or a Cold Corpse
Huan
W-what...why would they kill somebody??!!
Maid/Servant
*look sideways*
Maid/Servant
"It's actually the Emperors' favorites' order to those who failed the selection process, this was just passed after you came here in the Hall of Tranquility"
Maid/Servant
He wants to silence all the candidates.
Maid/Servant
So he can, solo the Emperor and enjoy a extravagant and luxurious life
Maid/Servant
It's even rumored that the Harem's debt is a ticking bomb ready to bankrupt the Hall of Treasury and Revenue
Maid/Servant
Because of his nonstop shopping spree
Huan
Woah...what did the Empress did?
Maid/Servant
He tried to, but the Emperor choose to listen to his favorite, and also the Empress' power is limited, he can't really much control the Inner and Outer Palace. So, he order to all soldiers to cut the tongue of all people who gossip about the Harems' debt crisis
Huan
And what do you think is your doing right now?????
Maid/Servant
Shut up, this is the Hall of Tranquil, the Empress made this specifically to meditate and pray
Maid/Servant
So he won't kill anyone here.
