Married to a Villainous Minister

Yu Jiao wakes up one day to find herself transmigrated into the body of a poor rural girl, sold off in a marriage of luck to a sickly man.

Thinking she’s landed in a farming-romance novel, she throws herself into a simple life; treating patients, farming, and starting a business. Sleeves rolled up, she sets her sights on fortune and a peaceful life.

But the frail “brother” she married turns out to be anything but weak. He blazes through the imperial exams, climbs the ranks, and becomes a powerful, feared minister—ruthless, manipulative, and holding absolute sway over the court.

Only then does Yu Jiao realize… he’s the actual male lead of this drama, and she’s not the heroine of a farming novel. She’s the lucky woman who grabbed onto the golden thigh of the most dangerous man in the empire. And now, she’s also the only mistress of the mighty Yu household.
