not as crazy dramatic as the presentation/execution in Chinese harem dramas that I watch but this is pretty close (some cdramas tend to be campy but man do they just suck you right in w all the mess and intrigue)

That scene at page 20 had me say "ew" spontaneously

wait so she is an adopted daughter because his father is a eunuch

 

[The_DCG]

So... Did the late emperor's son die and was replaced with current emperor & lady Aaduo's son? Which would make Jinshi the emperor's son, raised as his brother, masquerading as a eunuch, as a shadow prime minister? Or have I just read too many soap opera-type plots?

LOL For a sec., I thought it was a handsome man:

Since her dad was an ex-eunuch, is she adopted then?

ALSO, I googled wolfsbane and DAMN, touching it without gloves can kill you in under 2-6 hours? WTF??

Would that make Jinshi 16 years old (if he's the emperor's brother) since the "kid" that died has been dead since 16 years ago?

@Madologist LOOOOL Perfect censoring there.

well no, her father could have her before he supposedly became a eunuch
though, he did mention something about her "fate" in an earlier chapter when she was sleeping at home
perhaps she's a royal child?
everything is shrouded in mystery, i love it

LMAO GAO SHUN

 

[onionskins]

he is an ex-eunuch, glad his balls is back.

 

[Alex-dono-sama]

when her dad said it was fate i thought it was because her mom was also a part of the harem but this is such a twist.

Adoption?! Or he had her before he was castrated/enuch?
