Taming the Eunuch

Everyone in the imperial capital knows that Wen Jian, the head eunuch of the Directorate of Ceremonial, is ruthless and enormously powerful. No one dares offend him lightly. Countless beauties are sent to Bird Pavilion, hoping to become his companion, but the next day their corpses are discarded in the streets, left to be trampled underfoot.

Until one day, everyone sees a young woman walk out of Bird Pavilion safe and sound.

Not only that, he treats her with great consideration, lets her wipe her hands on his thousand-gold garments, and even smiles foolishly after she kicks him.

Everyone who sees how utterly besotted he looks thinks they must be seeing a ghost in broad daylight.

Yue Ci once found a dying man by the river and went to great lengths to save him.

Only after the man left did she learn that the person she had rescued and ordered around was Wen Jian, the head eunuch cursed and reviled by the world, and the very enemy who had murdered her elder sister three years ago.

Yue Ci swore that if she ever saw Wen Jian again, she would dismember him and make him pay in blood!

Later, she got her wish and entered Bird Pavilion, making her way to Wen Jian's side. But why was things going so differently from what she had imagined?

She poisons his wine and hides by his bed with a knife in the middle of the night, trying every possible means to kill him. But who could have guessed that this mad dog would willingly drink the poisoned wine she'd prepared and lick the bloodthirsty blade she held out to him...

Yue Ci is completely at a loss.

Can someone tell her why the closer she gets with a knife, the more excited this lunatic becomes?!!!

* Happy ending, redemption-focused

* To avoid confusion, the male lead did not kill the female lead's sister

* The male lead is a real eunuch, beautiful, strong, and miserable (truly miserable)

Spoiled, willful little princess x sinister, obsessive mad eunuch

As the only princess of the He Kingdom, Chi Yunrou is heaven's favorite, showered with love and affection. She's spoiled and willful, until one day the "starving dog" she brought home pounces on her.

That mad dog grows in the shadows, until at last he storms the city gates with a large army, massacres the imperial palace, and imprisons her in Yanjing Tower. It is then that Chi Yunrou realizes the mad dog is no eunuch at all. He had feigned helplessness to win her pity, hiding by her side and waiting for his chance.

Chi Yunrou has always been proud, and cannot bear to be imprisoned. She takes her own life in the palace. As her soul leaves her body, she sees the mad dog holding her corpse and slowly kissing her.

A chill runs through Chi Yunrou. That bastard... Could he be in love with her?

When she opens her eyes again, Chi Yunrou finds herself back on the day she took the mad dog in.

The man is being cursed and kicked, blood streaming everywhere. He raises his bloodied eyes, and their gazes meet.

Remembering everything from her previous life, Chi Yunrou immediately orders someone to chop off the mad dog's head. The next instant, she is back in the same scene, staring into the mad dog's eyes.

Chi Yunrou: ? I can't kill him?

//

To keep the mad dog under control, Chi Yunrou still takes him in and keeps him close, staying wary and humiliating him without letting him die. This time, she gets a fresh start.

But the more she lashes him, the hotter the look in the mad dog's eyes becomes, reminding her of that kiss he left on her corpse in her previous life.

Chi Yunrou: "..." Is this lunatic into something weird?

//

Pei Xian originally approached the willful, unruly princess for revenge. Even he could not have predicted that he would gradually fall so deeply for her that in the end, all he wanted was to keep her imprisoned by his side, where she could look at no one but him.

[Bonus Scene]

After the enthronement ceremony, Chi Yunrou is so exhausted that all she wants is to collapse on the bed and rest. But at night, someone climbs into her bed and touches her until she feels both itchy and annoyed. She kicks him and scolds, "Get out, Pei Xian!"

Pei Xian refuses to let up. He catches her kicking foot and murmurs in a ghostly voice, "Your Majesty certainly knows how to burn the bridge after crossing it. Have you forgotten what you promised this servant before your enthronement?"

Of course Chi Yunrou hasn't forgotten.

She asked Pei Xian to help her, and in return, she would become his companion. But this man comes to her day and night. She's starting to regret it...

* In his previous life, the male lead was a fake eunuch; in this life, he is a real eunuch. Truly dark and unhinged, so don't expect him to behave morally.
