A spoiled, willful little princess x a sinister, obsessive, mad eunuch
As the only princess of the He Kingdom, Chiyun Rou is Heaven's favorite, adored by everyone. She is spoiled and willful, until one day the "starving dog" she herself asked for pounces on her.
That mad dog grows wild in the shadows. In the end, he leads a large army through the city gates, massacres the palace, and imprisons her in Yanjing Tower. It is only then that Chiyun Rou discovers the mad dog is a fake eunuch. He won her sympathy and hid by her side, waiting for the right moment to strike.
Chiyun Rou has been proud all her life and cannot bear being imprisoned. She takes her own life in the palace hall. As her soul leaves her body, she sees the mad dog holding her corpse and slowly kissing it.
A chill runs through Chiyun Rou. That bastard... could he be in love with her?
When she opens her eyes again, Chiyun Rou finds herself back on the day she took in the mad dog.
The man is being cursed at and kicked, covered in blood. He lifts his eyes, matted with blood, and meets Chiyun Rou's gaze.
Remembering everything from her previous life, Chiyun Rou immediately orders her men to chop off the mad dog's head. The next moment, she's back in the same scene, face-to-face with the mad dog.
Chiyun Rou: ? I can't kill him?

To keep the mad dog under control, Chiyun Rou still takes him in and keeps him by her side. She stays on guard and humiliates him, but makes sure not to let him die. This time, she gets a fresh start.
Who would have thought that the more she whips him, the more ardently the mad dog gazes at her, reminding her of the kiss he left on her corpse in her previous life.
Chiyun Rou: "..." Is this lunatic into something weird?

Pei Xian had originally approached the willful, imperious princess to take revenge. But even he couldn't have anticipated that he would gradually fall for her, until all he wanted was to keep her imprisoned by his side, so she could look only at him and no one else.
[Extra Scene]
After the coronation, Chiyun Rou is so exhausted that all she wants is to collapse on the bed and rest. Unexpectedly, someone climbs into her bed in the middle of the night and strokes her until she feels itchy and annoyed. She kicks him and scolds, "Get out, Pei Xian!"
But Pei Xian refuses to leave. He catches her kicking foot and whispers in a ghostly voice, "Your Majesty really knows how to burn bridges. Have you forgotten what you promised this servant before your coronation?"
Chiyun Rou certainly hasn't forgotten.
She asked Pei Xian to help her, and in return, promised to be his companion in the palace. But this man comes to her day and night. She's starting to regret it...
* The male lead was a fake eunuch in his previous life, and is a real eunuch in this life. He's truly a dark and obsessive madman, so don't expect him to meet any moral standards.
