Chapter I: 几家欢喜几家愁 (Some are happy, some have worries)

AU Teikou Empire! Soon after Akashi Seijuurou ascends the throne of Teikou Empire, he marries Kuroko Tetsuya, his childhood sweetheart and makes him an empress. But life in the imperial palace is never calm especially with the arrival of new concubines and some of them will do anything to gain Emperor's favour. Genderbent for some characters. Crossdressing for Kuroko in his Empress outfit. The concubines can die anytime for the plot. Slash. Akashi Seijuurou/Kuroko Tetsuya. Akakuro.
