Mingyao depends on her down-and-out father, and the two have only each other.
A few years later, Mingyao suddenly discovers that her father, who placed third in the imperial examinations, will one day become the notorious number-one cruel official!
Her whole family is destined to be cannon fodder. What should she do?
Mingyao shrugs. What else can I do? Live it up and enjoy myself while I can!
And what if she's forced to marry the son of her enemy before she can even enjoy herself?
Mingyao smiles cheerfully. Of course I'll torment him and make his whole family furious. I have to live up to my reputation as the daughter of a treacherous minister.
Her treacherous-minister father: A favored son of Heaven reduced to servitude, bullied and humiliated by the world. Once I rise to prominence, I'll make them pay for every debt of blood! Yaoyao, I promise you, your father will never let you suffer again. One day, everyone who ever bullied you will kneel at your feet and beg for your favor. Are you moved?
Mingyao trembles. Not moved at all. Not one bit.
A treacherous minister's daughter who lets herself go~
The blurb is provisional. The first half is expected to cover the imperial examinations and the struggle to succeed, as she and her treacherous-minister father depend on each other and shine throughout the capital. The second half will cover the fall of the kingdom, survival in a time of chaos, and resistance against foreign invaders.
A few things to note:
1. Her father really is a cruel official. He only cares about his precious daughter.
2. There are some scenes where a woman disguises herself as a man.
