The Young Heroine's Father Is a Villainous Chancellor

Completed: The Little Princess Spoiled the Plot and Won by Taking It Easy. Coming soon: After the Little Taoist Priest Saw the Favorability Scores. The blurb is at the bottom.

Everyone knew that Chancellor Cui Beilou held power over the entire court, so much so that even the new emperor had to give him a wide berth. They also knew he was ruthless and would stop at nothing to eliminate his enemies. Countless people wanted him dead, and assassination attempts came one after another.

Yet Cui Beilou, with all the power in his hands, felt that the world was rotten to the core and that most people were selfish, grasping opportunists. At one point, he even thought that everyone might as well perish together.

One day, a little heroine with a wooden sword on her back came to see him, beaming. "Hello, Daddy! I'm Youyou, your most adorable daughter."

When Cui Beilou first learned he had a five-year-old daughter, he assumed it was some new scheme by his enemies and refused to be falsely saddled with a child.

He didn't even love himself, so how could he have fallen in love with a woman and had an adorable daughter with her?

Later, he discovered that plenty of people in the capital wanted to take the little heroine home, and her fellow disciples often came to the city to take her away. Cui Beilou's face turned cold.

You little thieves, don't you have daughters of your own?

There was a strange novel world in the Quick Transmigration Bureau. Its villain was so powerful that he broke free of the plot's control, killing the reborn male protagonist and the female protagonist who had transmigrated into the story. The world's consciousness could only keep restarting, but it could never stop the villain.

After restarting over and over, the world's consciousness had only one chance left. The Quick Transmigration Bureau could no longer stand by, so it sent in numerous mission-takers. Some planned to reform the villain, while others intended to kill him in advance.

To their astonishment, the mission-takers discovered that the villain had a daughter now, an incredibly adorable little dumpling!

The little dumpling had a toothache, and the moody villain from the original story comforted her tenderly.

The little dumpling drew on his face, and the ruthless villain from the original story indulged her with a doting smile.

The little dumpling...

The mission-takers who planned to reform him were thrilled. If a five-year-old could change the villain, surely they could succeed, too.

Later, as one mission-taker was dragged away, he heard the little dumpling's babyish voice outside and saw the villain put on a spectacular show of changing expressions.

The mission-takers who planned to kill him in advance were just as excited. This time, the villain had a weakness. They could kidnap her and use her as leverage to complete their mission!

Later, the mission-takers, beaten until their faces were bruised and swollen, were utterly despairing. The little dumpling they'd taken for a helpless child was a genuine little heroine! And that wasn't all. As soon as they finally got away, a crowd of martial artists blocked their path, cracking their knuckles.

"You dared to bully our junior sister? You've got some nerve!"

Reader Advisory:

1. Told from the little dumpling's perspective. There is a young male lead, but the romance only starts when they are grown up.

2. The parents' romance also features later in the story.

A similar upcoming title: After the Little Taoist Priest Saw the Favorability Scores

The five-year-old daughter of the Wen family, sent to a Taoist temple to recover from illness, has returned home.

The eldest son of the Wen family was once a refined young nobleman admired throughout the capital. After becoming disabled in both legs while saving someone, he could no longer take the imperial exams. His uncle then seized his title, leaving him increasingly hopeless. When he heard the news, his expression was indifferent.

"Oh. Just think of it as one more mouth to feed. There's no need to pay attention to her."

Wen Zhaozhao glanced at the favorability score above his head: Oh wow, a perfect hundred!

The second daughter of the Wen family had been a gifted scholar and a companion to the princess. But her cousin, who had grown up with her, betrayed her. She lost her position as the princess's companion, was falsely accused of plagiarizing someone else's poems, and was framed into losing her right to take the imperial exams. Disillusioned, she stopped trusting anyone, not even her five-year-old younger sister.

Wen Zhaozhao glanced at the favorability score above her head: Oh wow, another perfect score!

The third daughter of the Wen family was a twin with her second sister. She preferred practicing with weapons and dreamed of fighting on the battlefield, but she was poisoned by accident. Her frail health turned her into a medicine-guzzling invalid who gasped for breath after every few steps. She had nearly given up on life and refused to see anyone.

Wen Zhaozhao, peeking over the wall, glanced at the favorability score above her head: Oh wow, another perfect score!

The fourth son of the Wen family was unruly and often got into brawls with the capital's young masters. The young ladies of every household avoided him, while the sons of respectable families disdained his company. When they heard the youngest Wen daughter was coming home, everyone guessed he would beat his little sister senseless. He, too, declared that he had no other family.

Wen Zhaozhao glanced at the favorability score above his head: Oh wow, a perfect score! Another perfect score!

Everyone in the capital knew that the second branch of the Wen family, which had lost its title, had a little Taoist priest. She wore her hair in buns every day and set up a stall by the roadside with a little folding stool. Her sign read: "Fortune-telling, face reading, feng shui, divination, auspicious dates, acupuncture, and prescriptions."

They assumed the child had picked up a few tricks to swindle people and shook their heads.

"The second branch of the Wen family has truly fallen into ruin."

Who could have guessed that before long, the eldest Wen son would stand on his own two feet, the second daughter would find the culprit who framed her, the third daughter would recover and punch a bull to death, and the fourth son would turn from a lone wolf into a home-loving puppy?

Before long, plenty of powerful nobles were clamoring to have the little Taoist priest tell their fortunes.

Later, a headless ghost from the princess's residence came to plead for justice, and the truth behind the massacre of the entire Liu family came to light...

The people of the capital: If you have a problem, go to the little Taoist priest!

The ghosts of the capital: If you have a grievance, go to the little Taoist priest!
