When you gaze into the abyss, the abyss gazes back at you.
As the assistant administrator of Shunchang Prefecture, Gu Qingzhi has a simple wish: a hundred mu of good farmland, a loving wife by his side, and children gathered around his knees.
But the emperor just won't leave him alone. Making him work is one thing, but then he docks his monthly salary every now and then, gets impeached by the censors, and, on top of that, won't even let him resign. What kind of nonsense is that?
What's wrong with backing away from the abyss? Do you have to drive someone into becoming a god or a demon? Why can't a person just be a person?!
