After Being Offered to a Tyrannical Eunuch

Timid, beautiful, foolish little slave x gloomy, brutal, twisted fake eunuch

In the twenty-third year of Northern Jin, the court was in turmoil and eunuchs held power. To protect themselves, the Pei clan of Hedong sent their delicate, jade-skinned little slave, Si Yao, into the palace.

On his first day there, Si Yao was so frightened by a corpse in the hall that he burst into tears.

Only then did he learn that the eunuch he was supposed to seduce, Xie Yuhui, was violent and gloomy, cold-blooded and merciless, and fond of killing people.

While trying to stay alive, he found a badly wounded guard.

The guard was more handsome than every young nobleman Si Yao had ever seen, so he secretly hid him in his own quarters and nursed him back to health.

The guard was beautiful, but always gloomy and aloof, and despised Si Yao for being so stupid. Si Yao was hurt, but learned to serve him, thinking he'd send him away once he recovered. Who could have guessed the man would ask ominously, "You saved me. What do you want?"

Si Yao bit his lip. "Do you know Xie Yuhui?"

The man's lips curled slightly. "Why?"

Si Yao summoned his courage, his eyes shining. "You're his guard. Could you teach me how to seduce him?"

On the first day, Big Brother Guard taught him how to wield a sword.

Si Yao's arms were sore, and his eyes welled with tears. "If I practice swordplay, will Xie Yuhui think I'm trying to seduce him?"

The man said playfully, "No. He likes nimble fingers."

On the second day, Big Brother Guard taught him to appreciate tea.

Si Yao was stuffed to the point of tears. "I don't want to seduce him anymore..."

The man smiled and refused. "Be good. He likes a man with a big appetite."

On the third day, Si Yao asked happily which outfit looked better.

Big Brother Guard calmly pointed to the sheer, translucent gauze robe.

After being teased so many times, Si Yao deliberately chose the other, heavier outfit. But on the night he knelt in Xie Yuhui's bedchamber, blood on the floor stained his clothes red, and a hand with distinct knuckles lifted his chin. The face before him was identical to Big Brother Guard's.

Xie Yuhui sneered. "Didn't I tell you to choose the other one?"

Si Yao was so frightened he was about to cry, then started trembling as Xie Yuhui's gloomy, icy aura overwhelmed him.

"This one's dirty," Xie Yuhui said with a sinister smile. "Will you change, or should I change you myself?"
