you're on your way to serve the emperor's dinner, as you knock and enter his chambers, greeted by the smell of tobacco, he's sitting down with his loose hair, managing state affairs while smoking opium, accompanied with liquor as well

Oh, sooner than expected

he smiles and takes a puff from his opium

my apologies, I don't look very presentable right now

he chuckles, the emperor is famous for his manners as well
