In the late years of the Daqian era, tyrants roamed freely, war erupted endlessly, and the people could not sustain their lives. 
After transmigration, Chen Jie finds himself as a drunken gambler with a pair of unfortunate sisters at home.

The elder one, Su Yunjin, is his wife, and he also has a five-year-old sister-in-law, Su Yunrui. 
Their family is so poor they can barely make ends meet. 
Then suddenly, his beautiful wife comes smiling, bringing him a bowl of hot porridge. 
"Husband, I was wrong yesterday. Please have some porridge while it's hot."
Seeing the bruises on his wife's face, Chen Jie feels something is amiss.

Ding~
[Daily Information has been updated]
[1. Yesterday, you gambled away the last three acres of good land, beat Su Yunjin while drunk, and planned to sell the five-year-old Su Yunrui, to recover your losses.]
[2. The Su sisters rely on each other. Su Yunrui is Su Yunjin's only hope.]
[3. Su Yunjin, having lost hope, traded her mother's hairpin three days ago for a pack of arsenic.]

...Arsenic!
Staring at the hot porridge brought to his lips, Chen Jie looks up at his wife, seeing the faint bruise on her face and her eyes shifting away, avoiding his gaze.

"Honey!"
"Yes?"
"You didn't really drugged me, did you?"

Honey, you didn't really drugged me, did you?

This also led to the court appearing bright and splendid on the surface, but its foundation had thoroughly rotted away.


Though Daqian still stood upright, it was because they had another ethnicity, the Mulan people, whose foundation had not yet been severed.


But years of pampered living had also corrupted the Mulan people, leading them to a downfall.


Thus, Daqian had already begun its decline.


Zhang Liye sighed, feeling a deep sense of helplessness towards the court.


"Second Brother, it looks like our foster father has once again been moved by his appreciation for talent," Feng Xuan said to Zheng Chuan from not too far away.


Zheng Chuan frowned upon hearing this and said, "What foster father wants to do, what can we do about it? But right now, there's no spare position in the guild to place him!"


Upon hearing this, Feng Xuan laughed and said, "Is there really no position, or is Second Brother reluctant to let go of that little bit of power in his hands?"
