"The Prime Minister's Survival Guide" Episode 4: The Emperor's "Hmm" is a Sign of Hell!?

The Emperor took the teacup from his lips and let out a low "Hmm..."
The sound was heavy, echoing off the palace pillars and sending a chill down my spine like ice.

"Prime Minister. This tea certainly has a good aroma."


(Yes! This is the "Hmm of Promotion"!!)
For a moment, hope burst deep within my chest.

But the Emperor continued.
"...However, I drank Pu-erh tea last night and it upset my stomach."


The room froze.
The bureaucrats cleared their throats and looked away, and the eunuch placed his hand on the drum.
Boom, boom... boom, boom...
That ominous sound echoed once again.


(No, no, no! Why are you bringing up your stomach issues now!? This is a total collateral damage death flag!!)


The Emperor stood up and glared down at me.
"Prime Minister, find the cause of my stomach ache. If you are wrong—"


"It's death."


I clutched my head, swaying unsteadily.

(Options: Blame the tea leaves? Blame the chef? No, if I say it's a lack of abdominal muscles, maybe there's a chance he'll laugh!?)
