"He thought he was marrying a eunuch, but when he lifted the robe..."
After transmigrating, Si Shu found himself wearing a red wedding veil, with the bridal sedan already at the gates of the Ninth Thousand Years' Manor.
The System's prompt still rang in his ears: [Host must complete the task: Marry the powerful eunuch of the court.]

Until their wedding night.
He tensed up, ready to act delicate, but under the wedding candles, the Ninth Thousand Years' slender fingers looked like jade, and an Adam's apple showed beneath his crimson official robe.
"Why are you trembling, my lady?" the man chuckled. "Could it be... you're afraid I'll inspect the goods?"
Only later did Si Shu learn the truth.
