The Jade-Waisted Slave

In her previous life, the Jiang family was falsely accused of embezzling disaster relief funds, and the entire family was sentenced to execution. When all hope seemed lost, Sixth Prince Li Qian reached out to Jiang Ning, and she thought she had found her savior. Only when the Sixth Prince's Consort sent her to her death with a cup of poisoned wine did she learn that the gentle prince everyone saw was really a wolf in sheep's clothing. He had been behind the false accusation against her father. When she opened her eyes again, she had returned to the days before her family was condemned. Jiang Ning swore to clear her father's name and save her entire family. To do so, she was even willing to offer herself to Xu Shuyin, the Director of the Directorate of Ceremonial, but all she got in return was: “Please go back, Commandery Princess!” Back when Xu Shuyin was only a young eunuch, Jiang Ning had treated him like a target, summoning him and ordering him around as she pleased. Relying on his own abilities, he had entered the palace to save his life and climbed step by step to the pinnacle of the eunuchs. He had never imagined that the once-proud girl who had thought herself above everyone would one day submit to him, swallowing her grievances beneath him. Watching the tearful girl before him, Xu Shuyin said nonchalantly, “The Jiang family's fate was decreed by the emperor. His word is law. How could a castrated man like me presume to decide anything?” But in his heart, he wondered: Would Jiang Ning do the same for that filthy wretch, Li Qian? Once the thought took hold, he could no longer control his feelings. Later, when Jiang Ning tried to leave, he imprisoned her in his bedchamber, where her soft moans rang out night after night.
