Criminal Investigation Division

When you gaze into the abyss, the abyss is devouring you.

Old Madam Yang was furious, her face flushed purple. She followed the person the whole way, moving cautiously, as if she were the one who had done something wrong. She vowed to make them pay.

She was old enough to retire, and all her life she had held "being a virtuous and dutiful wife" as her highest goal. She married and had a son so she would have someone to rely on in her old age. Now it was time to reap what she had sown, but someone was trying to take her "harvest." She would never allow it. She would...

The next day, her body was found in an alley.

--- "The Chaste Widow Who Disappeared"

Lin Ruoruo can write reports with her mind and pull up willow trees with her strength. She's the bureau's notorious female devil, but all she wants is to lie flat.

"Her Highness Is a Construction Maniac"

On the day Qin Huadong graduated from military academy, she got so carried away that she missed a step and fell into a sewer. When she woke up, she had become an unloved, expendable little princess in some wish-fulfillment novel. Her mother was out of favor, so she had reached the proper age without receiving a title. Then one day, an imperial decree arrived, granting her the title of Anhe and marrying her off to Chen Xi, the son of the governor of Dangcai Commandery.

Her mother fainted from crying right there in the palace.

"My poor child! Dangcai lies on the northern frontier, and it's been at war year after year..."

Qin Huadong: "Holy crap! Isn't that exactly what I do for a living?"

Her mother cried again.

"Nothing grows there. No rivers flow from the land, only black water..."

Qin Huadong: "Black water? ...Wait, black water!"

Her mother collapsed to the floor, wailing.

"I heard Chen Xi is in poor health and won't live much longer."

Isn't that perfect?

But Qin Huadong went outside the palace and stared at an inconspicuous little sapling.

"Mother, could I have this little sapling?"

Not long afterward, however...

A report came from Dangcai: "A crop called 'sweet potato' has been discovered in Dangcai."

The princes, busy fighting one another, said they had no time to bother with some outlying territory.

A report came from Dangcai: "Black water keeps bubbling up from the land in Dangcai."

The ministers said: That's normal. It's always been like that there.

A report came from Dangcai: "The Rong tribes of the northern frontier will invade this winter."

Emperor Chenhua, discussing his daughter's marriage with the woman he adored, said, "I have faith in you," and offered no other support.

Then one day, news suddenly arrived from Dangcai.

"Report! Dangcai's 'earth potatoes' are yielding a thousand catties per mu, and there is no risk of famine this year."

"Report! Princess Anhe has led troops to seize the northern frontier's royal court."

"Report! Princess Anhe has continued north and conquered Luosha."

The emperor finally panicked. The northern frontier's royal court had long been a major threat to the empire, and Luosha's territory had been a powerful enemy for years, backed by a harbor and facing the Central Plains.

Then one day, an enormous crowd appeared beneath the walls of Dangcai City. Qin Huadong was dumbfounded. Chen Xi smiled and said:

"Everyone's heard that Dangcai is prosperous. These are all new settlers."
