Married Off in My Sister's Place to the Chief Eunuch

[The all-powerful Nine-Thousand-Year-Old × the unloved legitimate daughter of the prime minister]

[Reborn + forced love + groveling pursuit + devoted to each other + taking by force]

In her previous life, Lu Ci was forced to marry Xie Liang, the ruthless governor of the Western Depot, known as the Nine-Thousand-Year-Old.

After living together, she discovered he was not as the rumors described, and gradually fell for him. But she never expected to end up dying at his hands!

Reborn into a new life, Lu Ci still cannot escape being married off again.

With only her memories of her previous life to rely on, she exhausts herself trying to run away. She even risks saving the former crown prince, who has endured countless hardships yet still has the power to overthrow the dynasty, in hopes of escaping Xie Liang.

But things do not seem to go as smoothly as she imagined.

The former crown prince ascends the throne. She had hoped to use him to keep Xie Liang in check, but instead, he orders the execution of every powerful minister and announces that he will take her as his empress!

With wolves ahead and tigers behind, Lu Ci cannot fight them alone and is forced into the harem’s power struggles.

But on the day of her wedding, the Nine-Thousand-Year-Old, who was believed to be dead, leads troops through the palace gates, clad in red and drenched in blood.

His gaze fixes on Lu Ci as he speaks softly. “Be good, darling. I’m not dead yet. Who dares marry you?”
