The Most Unimaginable Ending

Reborn in another world, Zhang Wen swears he'll stay behind the scenes and pull the strings. However...

Chapter One: The Palace Examination

On the first day of the third month, at the end of the fourth watch, Zhang Wen sleepily finished getting dressed with the maid's help. He took the towel she handed him and rubbed his face vigorously, which helped him wake up a little.

He stepped out of Room Number One in the Heaven Section. The fabled Yue Lai Inn was already bustling with activity. Zhang Wen nodded to the innkeeper, who came over to strike up a conversation, then sat down at his assigned seat. He managed a few bites of food to fill his stomach, but although he was only slightly nervous inside, he looked extremely nervous, and his appetite quickly vanished.
