The Eunuch's Wife

In her previous life, Shen Shiyuan was the legitimate daughter of a general's household. She followed the rules of propriety and, upon turning eighteen, married her cousin, Fu Zhihan.

Unexpectedly, she discovered Fu Zhihan was having an affair with his widowed sister-in-law. After she died in a sea of flames, she watched the adulterous pair kill her younger siblings to seize the general's estate.

In this life, Shen Shiyuan firmly broke off her engagement to Fu Zhihan, but her aunt forced her to marry into the marquis's household, citing an imperial betrothal decree from the late emperor. Gritting her teeth, she had no choice but to seek help from the very person she least wanted to see: the Eunuch of Nine Thousand Years, Ji Fengyan.

No one in Daye dared not fear this powerful eunuch. The Imperial Censorate under his command kept watch over every official, and the entire court bowed to him.

Ji Fengyan brushed a loose strand of hair from beside her ear and said coldly, "Remember who you are."

Shen Shiyuan knew he had someone else in his heart and thought, After we're married, we can simply treat each other with respect.

Yet after their wedding, Ji Fengyan became utterly captivated by her, and their nights together were filled with passion.

Rubbing her aching waist, she turned to flee, only for him to bind her hands and feet with red silk.

Shen Shiyuan snapped, "Isn't there someone else in your heart?"

Ji Fengyan curled his lips into a wicked smile. "You're both my moonlight and the cinnabar mole in my heart."
