The Powerful Minister’s Precious Darling

This young woman disguises herself as a man and takes her twin brother’s place in government, hoping to skim a little money off the top. Instead, she runs into a wicked villain… The despicable Ximen Huan, the Grand Chief Minister who holds sway over the entire court! A corrupt official of the highest order! Why is he watching me everywhere I go? How did a would-be corrupt official like her end up as an impoverished prefect known for hanging his money pouch out to prove his honesty? From the case of the Grand Princess’s temple vase to Grand Preceptor Dong’s illicit tea trade and the case of bribery disguised as gifts, she and this corrupt official spar with wit and banter, yet somehow grow closer by the day. From the imperial exam fraud case to the sale of government posts and the floods in Youzhou, she even turns down the noble emperor’s affection for this corrupt official! Together, they bring down the regent. Good grief! The young woman can only cry, “I’ve fallen for him, I’ve fallen for him!”
