Princess, I Am a Eunuch, but I Have a Twin Brother

[No transmigration, no rebirth | Revenge | Forbidden tension | Political intrigue | Redemption]

[Brooding, bad-boy older brother; straightforward, loyal younger brother; the older brother is a real eunuch; the brothers don't turn against each other]

After the late empress died, Ji Zhiyue grew up in a cage under the watch of her imperial brother, Ji Chengyang, from the age of eight to eighteen.

A marriage decree finally let her leave that cage.

She discovered that her mother's death concealed another truth, and that the brother who had imprisoned her must atone for it.

To investigate the old case, she chose Rong Jichuan, the eunuch whose whole life her brother had destroyed.

A wild dog with a broken spine, trampled into the mud, would crawl inch by inch over a sea of bones to reach the highest seat of power, even if every finger was worn raw and his body was soaked in blood.

He clawed his way from a condemned slave to the Directorate of Ceremonial Affairs, all to orchestrate Ji Chengyang's death at the hands of the younger sister he loved most.

He investigated the old case for her, saved loyal ministers, and seized power, hiding his heart beneath the rules of a humble servant and never daring to ask for more.

His younger brother, Rong Jinglan, changed his identity and name, turning himself into the spear and shield in their hands.

On the night of her revenge wedding, Ji Zhiyue walked in her bridal gown toward the person she hated most.

A cold blade lay hidden in her sleeve, and the nuptial wine concealed a deadly poison.

At last, she and Rong Jichuan had their revenge.

Rong Jichuan: “If I lose all my usefulness, will Your Highness still want me?”

Rong Jinglan: “If Your Highness were free to leave, would you still come to me?”

The Command of Zhiyue, Mountains and Seas

A mistaken bond brings love to light after many twists and turns;

United in purpose, brothers protect each other through life and death;

A princess chooses love, true to herself and faithful to her beloved;

Once she ascends the throne, all the lands and seas can be brought to peace.
