Probably because when you're empress, you have your empress duties - which may be a problem when you're also a doctor.
Hmm, i guess it would be too much if she wanted to do both.
If she’s the empress and she keeps on doing her check-ups ie., touching other men’s bodies, wouldn’t other nobilities talk about it?
Also, her being continually in a hospital set-up, wouldn’t it be much easier to send assassins to kill her?
i think that’s what is meant to happen, the title of this manwha on other manga sites is “Queen with a Scalpel” so she’ll probably be a queen while being a doctor as well.
But the literal translation of the title of this webtoon is “Surgeon Elise”
I've been wondering about this for a while now, is there a reason elise can't be an empress while working as a doctor?
