Du Yaoyao transmigrated into a light-hearted ancient novel called “My Powerful Minister”, where the ordinary male lead continuously moves up in life.
The male lead was promoted as an offi...

The original owner went up the mountain for fun and died when his carriage fell off a cliff.
The coachman deceived the original owner halfway through the journey, and the wheel broke down. After the maid got off the carriage, the coachman stabbed the horse's butt with a dagger. The horse felt pain and broke through the fence of the mountain road, sliding into the abyss with the carriage.
When Chen Jie was burying the original owner's body, the man and the horse were thrown into a pool of meat paste. He did not go there in person. Instead, his servants picked up a few pieces of rags and shoveled a few bones wrapped in meat and put them into the coffin, thus setting up a grave.
Then, Chen Jie welcomed Hong E into the mansion, took in Ye Ying, took in Jin Zhi, and took in all kinds of women with peace of mind.
When Du Yaoyao read the article, she subjectively believed that the original owner foolishly killed the male protagonist Bai Yueguang, and the male protagonist ordered his groom to kill the original owner to avenge Bai Yueguang, and since then he became a playboy and played with women.
After she came here and spent time with Shen Jie day and night, she discovered that this male protagonist was not so narrow-minded, and that he had a very stubborn possessiveness towards his woman.
The original owner had been cheating on him for several years, and he had been promiscuous outside, but she had to remain chaste, so he had secret guards watching her at all times.
Fearing that he could not keep an eye on the baby and excited about becoming a father, he gave the original owner contraceptive drugs to make pregnancy difficult.
Two years later, they slept together again, and he began to control her in every way.
He secretly used the official seal when writing a letter to Song Xingkai, was extremely jealous when she wore Lin Shuyan's coat, and when Prince Chen abducted her, he even used cruel means to depose the prince.
A man who is chauvinistic, arrogant and conceited should not bother to kill his wife.
Shen Jie also promised himself that he would not kill his woman, as it was not what a husband should do.
After the original owner of the book died, Chen Jie, who was the prime minister, petitioned the emperor to posthumously confer the title of First-Rank Lady on his original wife. He never married a second wife since then.
Du Yaoyao always thought he was just pretending. Now that he thought about it, Chen Jie knew the murderer who killed the original owner. This person made him wary, so he could only let the matter go and compensate the original owner with his posthumous glory.
Combined with what Mrs. Jiang said, if Lin Shuwan encountered any disaster, as a mother, she would either demand a life for a life, or give an eye for an eye.
The original owner killed Lin Shuwan, so Madam Jiang would definitely be the first one not to let her go. Much more malicious than Shen Jie.
The prince proclaimed himself emperor and the Yongning Marquisate fell, which was a good time to kill the original owner. Madam Jiang might have bribed the groom of the Shen family to do this act of revenge.
The groom could agree to it. After all, in the eyes of everyone, Chen Jie and Lin Xiang's family were closer, and the original owner's arrogant and stupid wife who was only a hindrance and had no use value was really nothing.
This difficult time has been overcome. After figuring out the whole cause and effect, Du Yaoyao felt a little indignant for the original owner and was chilled by Chen Jie's indifference.
His wife was stupid and was exploited by her political opponents, becoming a victim of the struggle between the two sides. Did he help her investigate, or did he just listen to a few words and then go on with his ambitions for power?
It is difficult for a man who achieves great things to have room for a woman in his heart.
Du Yaoyao knew that Chen Jie helped people out of his love for him.
He helped Cui Niang in Qingzhou and made decisions for himself many times because he liked her.
Love you, be considerate and attentive, no matter how big or small. If you don't like it, just be like the original owner, and fend for yourself when encountering problems.
He probably repented after the original owner died, but that did not stop him from taking in all kinds of women for the sake of appearances and selfish desires.
"Yaoyao, what's wrong?" Chen Jie was outside the courtyard, holding her hand, and felt cold sweat on his hand.
Du Yaoyao calmed down and stroked her forehead, saying, "It's okay, I just feel a little dizzy."
"I think you caught a cold." Chen Jie picked her up and saw the sweat on her forehead and neck. He asked, "What did your aunt say to you?"
"He didn't say anything, just thanked me and told me to live a good life with you in the future." Du Yaoyao said a few perfunctorily.
"Really?" Shen Jie was skeptical. He knew that Madam Jiang had never liked Du Yaoyao, so he thought about it carefully and said, "I don't have any parents. You don't have to listen to anyone else in our family except me."
"Why should I listen to you?" Du Yaoyao muttered. Most modern men are "henpecked".
