The Governor Wants to Overstep His Bounds Every Day

Xie Jichen, the neglected Third Prince, was chosen by the ambitious Regent and raised to the throne as a puppet emperor. He kept a low profile and maneuvered carefully, even lowering himself to make a deal with the Director of the Eastern Depot. At last, he sent the Regent to his grave and reclaimed his power. But before he could betray his ally, the damned eunuch struck first and confined him to his bedchamber, subjecting him to endless abuse day and night. Furious and unable to fight back, Xie Jichen had no choice but to swallow his anger and feign compliance, gradually letting the eunuch lower his guard. Then one night, the emperor lay on the dragon bed, his ink-black hair loose. He pulled a dagger from beneath his pillow and drove it hard into the man's heart. Warm blood gushed out. Xie Jichen licked the blood that had splashed onto his lips, his smile bewitchingly beautiful and sinister. "You castrated dog. How dare you covet me?" The damned eunuch gazed at him with obsession, grasped his jade-like hand, and pushed it a little deeper. Leaning close to his ear, he murmured affectionately, "You missed, Your Majesty. It seems you still can't bring yourself to kill me." Xie Jichen: "...Get lost!" Ruthless, unhinged beauty bottom x powerful, feral eunuch top 1. The top isn't actually a eunuch. 2. Unhinged beauty versus feral dog, an intense love-hate relationship. 3. The bottom genuinely wants to kill the top, and the top genuinely wants to "do" the bottom to death. 4.
