Dream of the Red Chamber: I Become a Martial King and Steal Daiyu from the Start

A king of mercenaries in his previous life, Jia Jue is now the legitimate son of the third branch of the Rongguo House.

His father and brothers died on the battlefield, loyal to the end, only for Grandmother Jia to coldly oppress him and clear the way for her precious grandson, Jia Baoyu!

Worse still, the Jia family deemed him a burden before he was even a year old and tossed him away like garbage, sending him to be raised by the Lin family in Yangzhou!

“Do you really think I care about this filthy Rongguo House?”

Jia Jue sneered. Drawing on the ruthless methods he had mastered as a mercenary in his previous life, he killed wicked servants, built a private army, and seized power in Jiangnan!

Years later, the new emperor ascended the throne and set his sights on the Four Great Families.

The Jia family’s grand mansion collapsed, and the entire clan faced execution. Grandmother Jia brought Jia Baoyu to the residence of Jia Jue, Prince Wu and the most powerful man in the court, and knelt before him, wailing and begging him to save the family.

Seated on his throne with Daiyu in his arms, Jia Jue stared coldly at them. “Grandmother, why are you making such a racket so early in the morning? Guards, arrest this whole band of traitors and confiscate their property!”
