I Am the Greediest Official in History, and the Empress Won't Marry Anyone but Me?

Ye Qiubai transmigrates to the Great Qi Dynasty and becomes the magistrate of Shanyin County.

From the start, he awakens the Divine Honest Official System. As long as the Host engages in corrupt behavior, he can receive all kinds of rewards!

As long as he keeps a clear head, he can still be a good official while taking bribes, right?

From then on, Ye Qiubai uses his corrupt gains to obtain all sorts of tools for good governance and radically transforms Shanyin County.

By chance, the Empress makes a secret visit in disguise as a wealthy merchant and, through a series of events, falls for Ye Qiubai.

When she arrives in Shanyin County, she sees asphalt roads, factories, commercial buildings…

All kinds of unprecedented methods keep emerging.

A year later, at the Great Qi court, officials jointly impeach Ye Qiubai.

"Your Majesty, Magistrate Ye accepted a bribe of one hundred taels of gold in public and sold official posts!"

"Your Majesty, Magistrate Ye has colluded with foreign powers and formed a private army! He should be executed according to the law!"

Watching the ministers grow more and more agitated, the Empress speaks calmly.

"You needn't say another word. Don't I, his wife, know what kind of person Lord Ye is?"

Ye Qiubai: "I was getting ready to rebel, and you say you're my wife?"
