Supporting Eight Wives, Starting with a Marriage Alliance with a Fallen Heiress

Jiang Chen transmigrates to the Great Zhou dynasty and becomes the frail second son of the Shangshu Ling’s household. He intends to forge a marriage alliance by marrying Xu Nianwei, the daughter of a fallen duke’s family. But to his surprise, Xu Nianwei’s grandmother, the matriarch of the Zhen Guo Duke’s household, insists that if he wants to marry her, he must first take responsibility for all eight branches of the family. To honor his promise, Jiang Chen readily agrees, but in doing so, he earns the enmity of Yan Hui, the powerful Left Chancellor who dominates the court. At this desperate juncture, the Family Restoration System quietly awakens. He puts the family estate in order, builds a thriving trade network, and secretly gathers strength. Step by step, he investigates the truth behind the deaths of the duke’s sons and brothers in battle, peeling back the layers of conspiracy at court. Faced with corrupt officials bent on crushing him, assassins from the martial world, and the ridicule of the public, he conceals his sharpness with keen intelligence, plays the pig to eat the tiger, and turns weakness into strength, winning at every turn. As he rebuilds his family, his seven wives go from resistance to devotion, and from awe to infatuation, all giving him their hearts and staying loyally by his side. Watch as Jiang Chen, though frail in body, overturns the court and slays corrupt officials. He restores the duke’s house to glory, claims eight beauties, and wields power over all under heaven!
