The Frail Heir Begins by Protecting His Entire Household of Widows and Orphans

My father and brothers fell in battle, and before the mourning hall had even grown cold, the court came to seize our military command and take my widowed sister-in-law into custody.

I transmigrated into the body of the weakest, sickly Ninth Young Lord of the Prince of Zhenxi's household. My meridians are crippled, and everyone is waiting for me to breathe my last.

But they don't know that a master of ancient martial arts lives inside this body.

With a single joint lock, I make a formidable army general kneel and admit defeat. With a blueprint for steelmaking, I bring Third Sister-in-Law's ledgers back to life. In one night raid, I wipe the Western Qiang cavalry off the map.

My five sisters-in-law go from protecting me to being protected by me. From the frontier towns of the Northern Border to the court in the capital, I use modern ancient martial arts for face-slapping, crush my enemies with military tactics, and drag the real culprits out into the open with one piece of hard evidence after another.

They want me dead, but I insist on living to protect this family.

“Father, brothers. I will keep guarding the lands you protected. I will take good care of those you worried about. You can rest easy.”

The ailing young lord defies fate. One man, one city, protecting his entire household of widows and orphans.
