Powerful eunuch father figure gong x a young lord disguised as a man, the prince shou
Gong's perspective, political intrigue, childbirth.
After years of grinding through the workplace, Cui Chi finally fought his way up to the CEO's seat.
Before he could even get comfortable in the boss's chair, a heart attack sent him transmigrating into a book, where he became a little eunuch.
At least his manhood was still intact, and his adoptive father was the Chief Eunuch of the Eastern Depot. With a position this good, he had to follow in his father's footsteps!
With the mind of a thirty-year-old in a twelve-year-old's body, Cui Chi accepted that he couldn't return and began calmly plotting his rise to become the Eastern Depot's director.
After the empress's family was brought down, the empress was deposed, and Helian Ji was dragged down with them and banished to the Cold Palace.
One glance across a covered walkway, and he remembered Cui Chi for ten years.
Ten years of physical and emotional torment failed to break Helian Ji. In the quiet of the night, his pen pal, who went by "A Crane in the Woods," became his emotional support, helping him plan his way forward through their letters.
One day, dressed in a prince's robe, he walked out of the Cold Palace alive.
When he met Cui Chi again, Cui Chi had become the Eastern Depot's director, a man with power over the court and all its people.
The Crown Prince's seat had long been vacant. Every faction tried to win Cui Chi over, but he gave none of them an answer.
He was waiting for that indomitable Fifth Prince to come to him in person. If the prince aspired to the throne, he would help him rise to power.
Cui Chi waited and waited, until at last the man arrived. The proud young man took off his robes and offered himself to Cui Chi.
Rumor had it that the director was a pervert who enjoyed toying with young lords. The prince had nothing to offer but himself.
"You're certainly willing to go all out."
"In my current state, am I not to your liking, Director?"
