The Empress Reborn Steals the Sickly Eunuch's Livelihood

Princess Chuning Chu Chenyue of Great Chu has been showered with love and adoration all her life.

But in a single night, her crown prince brother was deposed, her mother's body had barely grown cold, her entire maternal clan was massacred, and she herself was imprisoned in the imperial mausoleum, enduring untold suffering...

Until the powerful Nine-Thousand-Year-Old, who held sway over the court, welcomed her back to the palace and installed her as emperor...

She thought her relationship with Ling Chenyuan was nothing more than a simple exchange of power and mutual advantage.

On the day of her enthronement, she bathed and burned incense.

The Nine-Thousand-Year-Old personally held out the imperial robes and dressed her, drawing the future empress into his arms:

"Your Majesty has achieved your wish. When will you let this servant fulfill his long-cherished wish as well?"

After a long dream, Chu Chenyue awoke from memories of her past life.

She was still the peerless Princess Chuning. Her mother's clan had not been slaughtered, and she had not been imprisoned in the imperial mausoleum, abandoned and alone...

And the Nine-Thousand-Year-Old, who had once held the power of life and death over her, was now a cold, grim young man waiting outside the castration chamber.
