[Original female lead, paired with Jinzong] [Arrogant princess x scheming eunuch]
Tomorrow, tomorrow, and always tomorrow. I only wish you freedom and joy.
Long, long ago, in the Qing dynasty.
In the Forbidden City lived the noble Princess Gu Lun Fu'an, who was spoiled, willful, and utterly unreasonable.
“As long as I want it, there's nothing I can't have.”
In a corner of the Forbidden City, a young eunuch reborn opened his eyes. In this life, he would reclaim everything that belonged to him.
“I want only wealth and honor. I don't want a shred of true affection.”
Though they were worlds apart in status, they were still drawn to each other.
In the end, the princess ascended the throne and ushered in a new era, while the young eunuch remained steadfastly by her side.
Content warning: unhinged story, not kind to Ruyi's Scum Dragon.
Author's changes: Nian Gengyao never took part in a rebellion. He was injured in battle, so Fat Tangerine didn't have him killed. Consort Hua was elevated to Noble Consort Hua, the musk was removed from the Incense of Pleasant Wishes, and Consort Hua became pregnant and gave birth to a daughter.
