Description:

As the war-torn kingdoms vie for power in Ancient China, a deadly yet beautiful struggle also emerges in the harem of the King Xun, the King of Ding! In order to gain the terrifying King Xun's favor, Ninghu's family is determined to make her the future Queen, but King Xun is not interested in his concubines at all.

Not willing to become just another neglected concubine, Ninghu disguises herself as an eunuch servant to her brother Yuanren, the second most powerful eunuch and adviser in the kingdom. However, the moment that she enters the Scarlet Palace, Lingyu, the most influential and favored eunuch, suspects that she is a girl and begins to investigate her.

With the mysterious death of Lingyu's original servant, Ninghu decides to become Lingyu's personal servant in hope to approach King Xun. However, King Xun is absent from the palace, and as time goes on, Lingyu and Ninghu become more and more attracted to each other. Could they have fallen in love with each other?!

A completed manhua: 32 chapters.

I was expecting this manhua to end up like many of the cliche girl-dresses-as-an-eunuch books but it wasn't what I expected at all. This book isn't the fluffy kind where the MC is utterly cute as she gets into accidents and gets schemed at, attracting the ML's attention and getting his help. Instead, it is filled with political intrigue, a dark romance, and twists that you don't see coming.

If you're a sucker for romance, you'll absolutely love this. But be warned, you might get second male lead syndrome (like me T_T). The King was my absolute favorite character in this series; his complexity just drew me to him. That's not to say that the MC and ML weren't interesting, but they were just a little flat compared to him. But that development did work out in favor of their romance, so all is good.

I read quite a few translated manhuas that only have a few chapters out so far, but are really good. Do you guys want me to recommend those or leave them till they are complete or have many more chapters?
