My Father Rose Through the Ranks Thanks to Me Wrecking the House Every Day

Princess Zhaoning, the Great Yin Dynasty’s most troublemaking darling, causes a ruckus from the start, crashing into the Censorate’s ceremonial procession. Hopping out of her carriage with a chicken leg in hand, she shouts, “Father! I tore down the ancestral hall of your sworn enemy! His ancestors’ tablets are in my bag. I’ll take them home and burn them for firewood!” The whole city is stunned, and the Emperor wants to arrest her and punish her. But three days later, urgent news arrives from the frontier: she rescued a captured general and, along the way, uncovered the enemy kingdom’s spy network. The court officials are dumbfounded. How is this causing trouble? She keeps stumbling into great deeds! From then on, officials, civil and military, watch her more closely than they watch imperial decrees. She only wants to eat, drink, and enjoy life, but the more she “tears down,” the more astonishing her achievements become. Even her dog digs up a corrupt official’s treasure map. When a political storm hits and her family is in danger, she rises with a cold smile. “I said I’d only tear down houses. You’re the ones who made me tear down the government!”
