The Eunuch's Secret Consort, Remembered Through the Ages

Tired of kindhearted, beautiful heroines? Shi Nuannuan, a rebellious girl with a naturally sweet face, drunkenly boasts that if she were born in ancient times, she'd be a foolish ruler and enjoy all the world's riches; a wicked consort who'd drive the heroes to fight to the death; or a chivalrous hero who'd turn the martial world upside down. She'd live life to the fullest and make every moment count.

When she sobers up, she transmigrates into a no-CP novel with a male protagonist. Unfortunately, fate has other plans: Shi Nuannuan doesn't become a foolish ruler who ruins the country, a wicked consort who brings it to ruin, or a martial arts master.

She becomes a little palace maid who can't even hold a needle steady, and the palace servants are wrapping her up like a sushi roll and carrying her to...

The bed of Chief Eunuch Ji Chengen.

They say Ji Chengen is vicious and cruel, holding the young emperor hostage and throwing the court into chaos, filling it with ruthless officials who persecute loyal subjects. The people in the palace have all become his playthings, and countless palace servants have died at his hands.

Shi Nuannuan: What?! The person I'm supposed to meet in this book is a great demon king?! And a eunuch?!

Shi Nuannuan: *rubs her hands eagerly*

Shi Nuannuan thinks that if she can't be a foolish ruler or a wicked consort, being the bad woman behind the great demon king will do just fine. But...

Years later, a legend about Shi Nuannuan circulates among the people of Great Yan. They say she was naturally upright and kindhearted, unable to bear watching the other palace servants suffer at the hands of the chief eunuch. She bravely offered herself to his service, told him a thousand and one nights' worth of stories, and finally moved him to stop harming people.

Shi Nuannuan, who had stormed out of the residence in a huff and come to the teahouse to listen to the storyteller, spits out her tea. You can't mix up all the folk tales, people!

Behind the second-floor curtain, Ji Chengen raises an eyebrow and tosses down a few gold leaves. "Go on, tell me more. How exactly did you bravely offer yourself?"

[A straightforward heroine who wants to be a great demon king but keeps accidentally doing good deeds and somehow becomes a beloved benefactor of the people x a sinister eunuch hero who believes that if he doesn't go to hell, then you will, or your whole family will]

* The male lead really is a eunuch and a great demon king. The heroine is a timid little thing who pretends to be a great demon king and throws her weight around.

* The heroine is a sycophant early on, but gets spoiled and bold later. And she is very good at it.

* Told from the heroine's perspective, but the male lead appears half a chapter earlier. The first chapter has a lot of information, so read carefully.

* I'm stockpiling chapters and updating daily at 3,000 words. If something comes up, I'll post a leave notice at the start of the blurb and in the latest chapter's comments.

* Believe it or not, this is actually a serious story.
