The Eunuch's Calamity

Jiang Qi is a princess of a fallen kingdom, a beauty beyond compare.

Step by step, Pei Jin, Director of Ceremonial Affairs, raised her up and placed her at the side of the enemy emperor.

He took up the hem of her skirt and bowed down on his knees.

"For revenge, you must make a sacrifice."

Jiang Qi lowered her eyes. "All right."

Later, she became empress dowager and personally destroyed the enemy kingdom.

But Pei Jin's eyes reddened as he pinned her against the deepest part of the curtained bedchamber again and again, begging her to let go.

Content warnings:

1. He is a real eunuch with a flawed personality. Childhood sweethearts meet an unexpected rival, but he sends the heroine to become a consort (she doesn't stay one for long; she rises to empress dowager, and only then does the hero start groveling to win her back).

2. The Directorate of Ceremonial Affairs is modeled on the Ming dynasty. It has immense power, enough to directly determine state affairs.

3. The hero is a huge scumbag in the beginning (consider this a serious warning!!! If you can't handle it, start running when I count to three!). Later, he has to grovel to win her back.

This is for readers who like melodrama!! It's not sweet or doting at all!!

The heroine turns dark, and both the hero and second male lead die. It's a huge bad ending, so don't read if you can't accept that.

(Everyone has their own tastes. If you don't like it, please don't be hurtful.)
