Jinyiwei + System + Infinite Flow + Hilarious Daily Life
When a sharp-tongued modern office worker transmigrates into the body of a low-ranking Jinyiwei banner officer and gets bound to the "Workaholic Development System," he thinks he can level up without lifting a finger. Then he discovers the System is even more foul-mouthed than he is!
[Quest: Make the Hundred-Household Commander see you in a new light within three days. Reward: Eye of Truth, which can see through any disguise.]
Lu Chen: "Make him see me in a new light? Does gouging his eyes out count?"
System: "...Host, please don't get yourself killed."
He thinks he'll be on top of the world from now on, but the items in the System shop are absurdly expensive. One Foundation-Nourishing Pill costs 500,000 points, while capturing a notorious bandit earns a mere 200.
Worse still, the System has a "Mouthiness" stat: the more he mouths off, the better the rewards.
So Lu Chen gets creative: using the Eye of Truth to solve cases, his gift of gab to roast people, and a spatial training room to work himself to the bone, all while offending everyone in the Jinyiwei from top to bottom.
Strangely, the more people he offends, the faster he gets promoted.
Colleagues: The guy's got a foul mouth, but he's amazing at solving cases!
Superiors: We'd love to cut him down, but we can't solve a single case without him!
Rivals: Can you shut up already?! I'll confess! I'll tell you everything, okay?!
Years later, when Lu Chen becomes the Commander of the Jinyiwei and stands in court, Zhu Yuanzhang looks at him, the corner of his mouth twitching. "I made you a Jinyiwei commander. I didn't tell you to offend the entire court!"
Lu Chen: "Your Majesty, this mouth of mine is the Ming Dynasty's first line of defense."
Zhu Yuanzhang: "..."
