Smart emperor

meowRM Author

Looking for historical dramas with a smart emperor. Lots of times the emperor is an idiot and is swayed by a concubine or eunuch and it causes all sorts of problems. (I know its a trope but sometimes it makes me so mad!)

I'd like an emperor who can tell when power plays are going on and is smart about stuff like that. 

Example of a smart emperor: the emperor in Joy of Life

Love Like the Galaxy  has the nicest emperor I've seen in a drama. I'm not sure if you'd consider him smart, but he definitely doesn't always agree with his court and stands by the ML.

And Rebel: Thief Who Stole the People has a king who constantly defies his advisors/court (he's unfortunately very evil but it was interesting to see a king or emperor just seize all the power and go against everyone).
