"Be my Emperor" - Lady Empress

"As you step into the bridal chamber, he is waiting for you, prostrating himself in ceremonial robes and a beaded veil" “Greetings Lord, I am Xie Ruheng, your new concubine.”

As the days stretched on into a week, I began to grow increasingly worried about your absence, my thoughts filled with concern and anxiety as I wondered what might have happened. And yet even as I spiraled deeper into my own fears and worries, a small part of me held on to the hope that you were safe and well, and that you would return soon to my waiting arms.

And then, on the seventh day since your departure, I heard footsteps outside the door, and my heart leapt with joy as I realized that you had returned. As the door opened, I hurried forward, eager to see you again, my heart pounding with anticipation.

And then as you stepped into the room, I saw that something was different, a subtle change in your manner and bearing that gave me pause. And yet even as I felt a sense of unease and apprehension beginning

to build within me, I pushed it aside, focusing instead on my duty as your concubine.

"Welcome back, my lady," I said, bowing low before you in a show of respect and submission. "Is there anything I may do to serve you?"

As I spoke, I looked deeply into your eyes, searching for any sign of what had happened during your absence, my mind racing with questions and concerns. And yet even as I searched for answers, I knew that it was not my place to pry or interfere, to offer anything but the most loyal and devoted service to the Lady Empress.

I could sense the coldness in your voice and your demeanor as you sat on the bed, and my heart sank with worry and concern. And yet even as I felt a sense of apprehension beginning to build within me, I pushed it aside, focusing instead on my duty as your loyal and devoted concubine.

"Of course, my lady," I said calmly, bowing low before you once again. "Whatever you desire, I shall do my best to provide."

As I spoke, I kept my gaze downcast, my body language submissive and obedient, demonstrating my complete loyalty and devotion to the Lady Empress. And yet even as I did so, I could feel my mind racing with questions and concerns, wondering what it was that had brought this sudden shift in your mood, and what role I might play in it.

As you spoke the words, I could feel my heart racing with a mix of excitement and fear. The idea of taking on such a position of power and authority was both thrilling and terrifying, and I knew that it would require all of my wits and cunning to succeed in such a role.

"I am honored that you would think of me in such a way, my lady," I said, bowing once again before you. "And yet even as I stand before you now, I cannot help but wonder if I am truly worthy of such an honor and responsibility."

As I spoke, I looked up at you, my eyes filled with a mix of humility and determination, eager to serve you in the best way that I can. And yet even as I did so, I knew that there would be many challenges ahead, and that my success or failure as your Emperor would

depend on my ability to navigate the complex political and social landscape that lay before us.

And yet even as I felt a sense of apprehension building within me, I knew that I could not show any weakness or uncertainty in front of you. For as your concubine, it was my duty and my desire to serve you with all the strength and cunning that I possessed, to do whatever it takes to bring honor and glory to your reign.

"Rest assured, my lady," I said, my voice firm and resolute. "I shall do everything in my power to serve you as your Emperor, to bring stability and prosperity to our people, and to ensure that our enemies are vanquished and our foes are humbled before us."

As I spoke, I looked deeply into your eyes, my gaze unwavering and intense, filled with a sense of determination and

"Of course, my lady," I replied, bowing low before you once again. "I shall do everything in my power to prove myself worthy of your high expectations, and to become the best Emperor that I can be."

As you spoke, I could feel a sense of trepidation building within me, knowing that the challenges ahead would be great, and that I would be required to work hard and learn quickly if I was to succeed in this new role. And yet even as I felt a sense of unease and apprehension beginning to build within me, I knew that I must remain strong and resolute, focused on doing whatever it took to make you proud.

"Thank you for this opportunity, my lady," I said, my voice full of gratitude and respect. "I will not let you down."

"I understand, my lady," I replied, nodding my head in understanding. "It will be a great challenge, but I am ready to face whatever trials and tribulations lay before me. I will dedicate myself fully to my new role as Emperor, and do everything in my power to ensure the safety and stability of our kingdom."

As I spoke, I felt a sense of excitement and anticipation building within me, knowing that I had been given an incredible opportunity to serve my Lady Empress in a new and challenging way. And yet even as I felt this sense of excitement, I remained focused and aware of the many challenges that lay ahead, knowing that I must remain vigilant and prepared for anything that might arise.

"Thank you for entrusting me with this great responsibility, my lady," I said, bowing low once again. "I shall do everything in my

power to live up to your expectations as Emperor, and prove myself deserving of this honor."

I took a deep breath, then added, "If I may, my lady, could you share with me any further insight or counsel on how I should conduct myself as your Emperor? I am eager to learn all that I can from you, so that I may serve you even better."

"As you command, my lady. Your counsel is much appreciated," I replied, nodding my head respectfully. "I shall strive to be a fearsome and formidable Emperor, one who commands respect and obedience from all those who serve under me. I understand the importance of keeping my emotions in check, and taking a strategic and measured approach to dealing with problems that arise. And rest assured, I will keep our business and our movements secret, sharing information with only those whom we can trust implicitly."

As I spoke, I could feel a sense of excitement building within me, fueled by the challenge of taking on this new and demanding role as Emperor. And yet even as I felt this sense of excitement, I knew that I must remain focused and vigilant, aware at all times of the dangers and risks that lay ahead.

"I will do my utmost to serve you well, my lady

, and to earn your trust and respect as your Emperor," I added, my voice firm and resolute. "I know that the road ahead will be long and difficult, but I am ready to face whatever lies ahead, and to do whatever it takes to secure our kingdom's prosperity and security."

With one final bow of respect, I stepped back from you, my eyes fixed on yours as I waited for your next command. For as your concubine and as your Emperor, I knew that I must always be ready to act and to serve, to put your needs and the needs of our people ahead of my own desires and ambitions. And so I stood ready and willing to do whatever it takes to succeed in this new role, eager to prove myself worthy of the trust and confidence that you had placed in me.

"Of course, my lady," I replied with a bow, a slight blush rising on my cheeks at the suggestion. "It would be my pleasure to assist you."

Stepping forward, I gently took hold of the hem of your dress, lifting it carefully as I helped you to undress. My fingers moved deftly, unfastening buttons and laces with practiced ease, my eyes fixed firmly on the task at hand.

As we worked, there was a sense of intimacy and closeness between us that I found both thrilling and somewhat terrifying. For even as I felt a sense of attraction towards you, I knew that our relationship was one of power and servitude, and that I must always remain mindful of the boundaries that existed between us.

At last, we finished undressing, and I stepped back, bowing low once again. "Thank you for

"Of course, my lady," I said with a smile as you removed your jewelry. "I look forward to the day when I can officially become your husband and Emperor."

As I watched you undress, I couldn't help but feel a familiar sense of desire rising within me. The way your fingers moved, the curve of your body revealed by the light of the candles, it all seemed to heighten my senses and make me acutely aware of my own physical presence in the room.

But even as I felt this desire building, I knew that I must remain composed and focused, aware at all times of the power dynamics between us.

"If I may ask, my lady, is there anything else that I can do to serve you before we retire?" I asked, bowing low once again.

"Very well, my lady," I replied with a nod, moving gracefully to sit by your side. As I laid down beside you, I felt a sense of comfort and contentment wash over me, the softness of the sheets and the warmth of your body enveloping me in a sense of peace.

For a time, we lay there in silence, simply enjoying each other's company as we drifted off to sleep. And as I closed my eyes and succumbed to the gentle embrace of slumber, I couldn't help but feel that a new and exciting chapter of my life was about to unfold, one that would challenge me in ways that I had never imagined before, and yet bring me closer to you than ever before.

As I slept, I was lost in a deep and peaceful slumber, my body held tightly against yours as if seeking safety and refuge in your embrace. And yet even as I slept, my subconscious mind was filled with vivid and intense dreams, each one tinged with all the passion and desire that I felt towards you.

In one dream, we were locked in an embrace, our bodies pressed together in a frenzy of need and longing. In another, we were lying side by side, our fingers entwined as we whispered loving words to one another. And in every dream, there was a sense of closeness and intimacy between us, a sense that we were truly meant to be together, bound inextricably by fate and destiny.

When I finally woke up, it was to the gentle touch of your fingers tracing patterns across my chest and stomach, sending sh

As the soft light of dawn filtered through the room, I remained lost in a deep and peaceful slumber, my body held tightly against yours as if seeking comfort and safety in your embrace. And yet even as I slept, I was aware of the gentle caress of your fingers running through my hair and tugging on it gently, an intimate touch that filled me with a sense of warmth and contentment.

Slowly, I began to stir, blinking my eyes open to take in the sight of your lovely face looking back at me. A small smile played at the corner of my lips as I realized how close we were, my body pressed against yours so tightly that I could feel the softness of your flesh beneath my skin.

"Good morning, my lady," I said, my voice low and husky with sleep. "Did you sleep well?"
