The Great Yan Son-in-Law: From Everyone’s Punching Bag to Ruthless Chancellor

In the final years of the Great Yan dynasty, corrupt ministers hold sway and the realm teeters on the brink of collapse.

Lin Xiao comes from a fallen family and has become a live-in son-in-law of the Shen family of Gusu, enduring their scorn at every turn.

His wife despises him, his in-laws look down on him, and everyone regards him as a good-for-nothing.

But who could have guessed that beneath this useless facade, he is a man of great talent, capable of stirring the winds of change? Using the merchants' influence, he curbs the power of the great clans; battling political intrigue at court, he brings order to a chaotic age. When the dynasty is on the verge of collapse, he turns the tide; when the court grows rotten, he strikes hard to set it right.

From useless live-in son-in-law to the most powerful man in the realm, he ultimately becomes prime minister!
