[Scheming use + jealous hero takes over + forced love + both leads have eyes for each other alone + a long road to winning back his wife]
[The cold-blooded, calculating Eunuch of Nine Thousand Years VS the fallen heiress bent on revenge]
The Eunuch of Nine Thousand Years, who holds power over the entire court, claims he will help her take revenge, but uses her as a pawn in his game to achieve his own ends.
She is guileless, and willingly works for him so she can avenge her family.
But as love begins to bud between them, something slowly changes in both their hearts.
The more she longs for his attention, the more deeply he hurts her.
And the more devotedly she works, the more jealous he becomes.
The fierce possessiveness that comes over him for no apparent reason leaves him afraid she might fall for him.
He nearly loses control when he sees every other man vying for her.
The Crown Prince plots to kill his intended Crown Princess for her sake.
The Second Prince, who guards the border, nearly starts a rebellion for her.
The Third Prince, who normally won’t even look at women, suddenly wants to marry her.
Even the Sixth Prince, usually a carefree womanizer who neglects his duties, suddenly turns over a new leaf and acts like a respectable gentleman, all to win a smile from her.
She thinks she can use the princes’ influence to avenge her maternal grandfather’s family, but the man who took her away gets jealous.
“Why are you going around seducing men?”
“Weren’t you the one who told me to use my charms?”
