Archaeology PhD Wen Yansheng transmigrated one day and became the little husband of a eunuch.
Yan Jinzhao, a powerful and wicked eunuch, was a true eunuch, yet he kept a beautiful little husband outside the palace.
To escape Yan Jinzhao's control, this little husband climbed into the emperor's bed, hoping to use the emperor to kill Yan Jinzhao.
Unfortunately, he not only failed to get rid of Yan Jinzhao, but also became a tool the emperor used to drive Yan Jinzhao mad. The deranged emperor "bestowed" upon him the punishment of having his bones scraped clean.
Wen Yansheng transmigrated into the beautiful little husband who had climbed into the emperor's bed to escape Yan Jinzhao's control.
But he didn't know it.
When he first transmigrated, he was still the Crown Prince's study companion, while Yan Jinzhao was still a little eunuch struggling to rise through the ranks in the mud, someone any eunuch or palace maid could bully.
Wen Yansheng, who had read this history thoroughly: "...Do you really have no idea how you're going to die later?"
As he lamented, he helped Yan Jinzhao, who had been beaten until he was covered in wounds, to his feet, intending to change the fate in which he would later be torn apart by five horses.
But... the plot kept veering further and further off course. It wasn't until Yan Jinzhao had risen to power and, undeterred by anyone's objections, married Wen Yansheng and brought him home as his little husband that Wen Yansheng learned what fate history had in store for him!
"The cannon fodder was me all along!"
Looking at his enormous pregnant belly, Wen Yansheng wore a baffled expression: "Can history lie? When did Yan Jinzhao become capable of having sex!"
Wen Yansheng made an immediate decision: Run! The farther away, the better!
II
Yan Jinzhao carried a blood feud. To get his revenge, he didn't hesitate to enter the palace and become a eunuch.
When everyone was trampling him underfoot, a beautiful young man reached out and pulled him up from the mud.
When he was hungry, the young man brought him food.
When he was cold, the young man gave him clothes.
When others bullied him, the young man stood up for him.
The young man was the future emperor's childhood friend and study companion: the Crown Prince.
Yan Jinzhao climbed the ranks at any cost, all because he wanted to have him.
Later, he got his wish, but the young man wasn't happy. He climbed into the emperor's bed.
As Yan Jinzhao's heart turned to ash, he thought that as long as the young man was happy, that was enough.
But he never imagined that the dog emperor would kill the young man just to take revenge on Yan Jinzhao.
Reborn, he returned to the darkest time of his life. The young man, with features as beautiful as a painting, reached out to him tenderly, his eyes full of concern.
He said, "Get up, Yan Jinzhao."
Yan Jinzhao clasped his hand tightly, as if holding on to his entire life.
This time, no matter what, he would never let go.
