Man-seok, a lowly slave born with the stolen energy of the Three Spirits Goddess, was abandoned in the mountains the moment he was born. By sheer luck, he was picked up by a traveling peddler and wandered the eight provinces of Joseon. Thanks to his natural gift of gab and cunning wits, Man-seok rose to fame as both a chivalrous hero and a master con artist. But believing that “a famous conman starves to death,” he decides to pull off one final, grand scam before retiring. His last target: stealing the priceless blue-and-white porcelain owned by Park Dae-gam, the wealthiest man in Hanyang. The plan fails spectacularly, and he’s caught. As punishment—or rather, under Park Dae-gam’s orders—Man-seok is forced to disguise himself as a “fake eunuch” and infiltrate the royal palace… …and not just any post, but as the personal eunuch assigned exclusively to the bedchambers of Queen Gyeongye, the king’s wife who is said to be even more terrifying than His Majesty himself…!
