Su Yu was gravely wounded when Bai Qingqing, the daughter of a wealthy Chongzhou merchant, rescued him. To repay her for saving his life, Su Yu willingly became the live-in son-in-law of the Bai family’s third branch, a second-rate clan in Chongzhou.
Three years later, when the time was right, Su Yu began his counterattack. Before long, those around him who had once regarded him as a “good-for-nothing” began to see him in a new light.
It turned out that Su Yu was a special forces soldier from the modern era who, through a twist of fate, had transmigrated to a parallel world in an unknown dynasty.
It turned out he was the seventh prince, who had vanished from the court years ago. With the emperor gravely ill and the princes locked in a fierce struggle for the throne, Su Yu was dragged into the succession fight as the seventh prince.
Would he claim the empire and a beautiful woman to become its ruler? Disappear into the mountains with his beloved? Or spend the rest of his life alone? Behold the mighty return of the Martial God son-in-law!
