I made the imperial exam list in my last life. In this one, I just want to lie flat.
In his previous life, Liang Ruan'an studied hard for years and passed the imperial exams at the top of the list. The emperor had just ascended the throne and needed to recruit capable officials, so Liang became his right-hand man. But he was framed and killed.
After being reborn, he wanted nothing to do with court affairs. As the son of a merchant, he spent twenty years living like a couch potato.
He was all set to be a couch potato for the rest of his life, but his father wouldn't let him. His father simply bought him an official post, and before he knew it, Liang had ended up in Leping County, a remote border county. So he planned to find another hole to hide in and keep lying flat.
But his superior was a rival from his hometown who wasn't very capable. Whenever a pile of problems came up, Liang was always the one expected to solve them. His colleagues were even lazier than he was, and in the end he became the backbone of this utterly bizarre county office.
Liang Ruan'an, who only wanted to lie flat: ...I might as well go back to the capital and fight for my life in court.
