Deng Manman was baking egg tarts one moment, and the next she'd transmigrated and become a palace eunuch.
A little eunuch in the cold palace who couldn't even get enough to eat.
The cold palace had nothing but a courtyard full of mad consorts, a limping old palace matron, and a blind old eunuch.
Deng Manman thought she would probably starve to death in the cold palace.
Then one day, the famous Imperial Physician Xiao came to the cold palace and took a bowl of minced-meat noodles and a bowl of meat soup out of his medicine case.
Xiao Qian had been asked to check the deposed empress's pulse in the cold palace. The deposed empress was perfectly healthy, but he discovered a fake eunuch.
The fake eunuch gazed at him pitifully as she swallowed, as if he were a delicious bowl of minced-meat noodles or a steaming pot of meat soup.
Xiao Qian asked her, "Do you want to eat me?"
Deng Manman honestly nodded, swallowing again as she did. "I do!"
Xiao Qian: "If you come with me, you'll get meat to eat and soup to drink. Will you come?"
Deng Manman: "Yes! I'll follow you for the rest of my life!"
When the day finally comes for her to eat meat and drink soup for real...Deng Manman begs Xiao Qian through her tears to let her off. Can't she stop eating now? The bed's about to collapse...
