It’s Hard to Be a Treacherous Minister

The powerful and domineering Marquis Xie has died. What worried him most before his death was his precious son, Xie Jiusì.

They say a fallen phoenix is worse off than a chicken. Without Marquis Xie's protection, his beloved son has become a pitiful little nobody whom anyone can bully and humiliate.

But when one treacherous minister dies, a younger villain takes his place. First, Marquis Xie “sold” his daughter to climb the ladder of success. Now Xie Jiusì is “selling” his sisters for the same purpose.

The problem is, the powerful brothers-in-law he's picked out have no interest in his beautiful sisters. One after another, they set their sights on him instead.

Looking at the candidates for brother-in-law he'd so carefully selected, Xie Jiusì can only think that Heaven is out to get him!
