Can't we just abolish the emperor and make this country a matriachial monarchy? Lizzie can be the reignant empress, with her sister as 2nd in comand and shitty ML can cavort with his trashy mistress all day long. there! problem solved! (this should be a new trope, the emperor chooses the women in his harem for political abilities and they rule the country (division of labor and all that) the emperor is just a figure head to mantain the bloodline. his only responsability is choosing consorts wisely and eventual veto power)
