[Henglan] The Story of Minglan Fanfiction: A Flourishing Age

Lin Feng, wearing Sheng Hong's face, watched Lin Xiaoniang wail and put on a whole performance in front of him. He had to admit that, as a mercenary, sneaking a peek at romance novels on his phone while the enemy was at the gates and his teammates were none the wiser was a bad habit. The problem was that his character was already deeply in the red. While Yao Yiyi, a court clerk sent to a poverty-stricken region, could transmigrate into the heroine and get a golden finger, he could only end up as a thirty-year-old wreck, and not just that: he was an even worse scumbag dad. Since he was here, he might as well make the best of it. His official rank was low, but that wouldn't stop him from working hard to save the emperor and become one of his trusted subjects! The inner courtyard was a mess, but that wouldn't stop him from being ruthless. Lin Xiaoniang, get lost and leave my master alone! It was hard to arrange marriages for the children, but the emperor could grant one. Princess, sorry, but you have to take our Minglan! PS: A mid-length fanfic. To avoid breaking immersion too much, some passages from the original will be edited or removed. It will be similar but not quite the same, and the goal is to make our dear readers think the original was written this way. No explanations! PPS: Minglan is paired with the Little Duke. The Second Uncle is portrayed somewhat negatively, mainly because he was already married and behaved foolishly before. His character and future prospects aren't being trashed; he will certainly make a name for himself, but that's unrelated to the main plot, so it won't be mentioned much. Fans of the Second Uncle, please move along! Theme:
