Summary
The Emperor issued an edict, ordering the Minister to choose one of his daughters to marry… the Crown Prince’s eunuch study companion. Father nearly coughed up blood. My sisters all turned pale with terror. Only I stepped forward. “I’ll do it!” Having died once before, I knew the truth. What little eunuch? He was the future Lord Nine Thousand-a fortune vast enough to blot out the sky! Later, rubbing my aching waist, I wanted to cry but had no tears. As it turned out, what blotted out the sky wasn’t just his fortune, but Lord Nine Thousand’s virility too.
