[Please add my upcoming story to your collection: After the Emperor Read His Inner Monologue Log. Please add it, dear readers~]
After signing a shady contract with a damnable System, Mu Qi was sent to ancient times.
The good news was that the body the System had prepared for him belonged to the heir of a duke of the current dynasty. He was born into a fictional dynasty's highest circles, surrounded by wealth and honor.
The bad news was that the emperor was obsessed with alchemy, the pure and corrupt factions were locked in a vicious struggle, the rulers above were incompetent and the officials below greedy, and the dynasty was already in decline. It wouldn't last more than a few decades.
Worse still, according to the damnable System's contract, Mu Qi had to make a name for himself in this era, turn the tide and prop up the crumbling dynasty, and make his name live forever in history. Otherwise, he couldn't return.
Faced with the tiny task his boss had given him, Mu Qi, whose only talent was running his mouth, finally gave up:
...Just destroy everything already.
After repeatedly fighting back to no avail, Mu Qi finally decided to lie flat. He refused to cooperate with the System and used his work logs to vent his frustration with a torrent of trash talk:
[Another day of banging my head on the floor in the palace. I'm so damn done. That old lamp has been making pills for years. Why hasn't he kicked the bucket and dropped some loot yet?]
[We have to attend court at five in the morning? Damn, what a pain. And Elder Xu of the Pure Faction, how do you have the nerve to accuse your political rivals of seizing farmland? Did those tens of thousands of mu of irrigated fertile land back home fall from the sky? Disgusting.]
[Dammit, I just trashed the Pure Faction yesterday, so today I have to slap the Corrupt Faction in the face! You spent a whole year inspecting the salt trade and only brought back a million taels of silver? It's only because that old Taoist has fried his brains making pills. Otherwise, he should have followed the example of the ancestors and skinned you alive a few hundred times!]
[I heard that old-lamp emperor has been cultivating for decades without touching a woman. Wonder if it's true? Come to think of it, it's not that surprising that later generations' fanfiction paired him with his wet nurse's son...]
Every night, Mu Qi would thoroughly curse them out, dump all his trash on the System, then go straight to sleep without another thought.
It seemed, though, that Mu Qi had forgotten that this damnable System of his had never been able to guarantee the privacy of his information...
·
The emperor devoted himself to the mystical arts and secluded himself in a secret chamber. After many days of spiritual cultivation, he finally moved Heaven. One day, the room blazed with light, and a book fell from midair. Four large characters were written on its cover: Work Diary.
The emperor treasured it as if it were a priceless artifact. After bathing and burning incense, he opened it reverently and carefully read Heaven's revelation:
[Eleventh night of the sixth month. As usual, my daily question: I've swallowed so much heavy metal, so how is that old lamp on the Dragon Throne still alive?]
The emperor's smile froze.
·
On the twelfth day of the sixth month, a sudden upheaval shook the palace. Rumor had it that on that day, the emperor expelled all the Taoist priests from the palace, severely punished the salt inspectors, confiscated all their property, and had them flayed and stuffed, as a warning to future generations.
That day, Mu Qi was lying flat at home, bored out of his mind, when he suddenly heard a notification he hadn't heard in a long time:
"Huh? Why is the mission progress bar moving on its own?"

This story is also known as Can Lying Flat and Keeping a Diary Make a Country Strong?
The setting is fictional.
Xu Ce transmigrated with a System and became the protagonist of a lucky koi story.
They say this is the opportunity countless protagonists dream of, a rare stroke of luck seen only once in thousands of people. According to the lucky-koi genre, all he had to do was follow the plot, then use his peerless ability to turn bad luck into good to solve problems and ward off disaster for a host of powerful figures. In return, they would dote on him and protect him, helping the little koi get rich and become the most dazzling star in all the worlds.
In short, it would be a feel-good life, with powerful people carrying him along while he lay flat and enjoyed himself.
Everything was so lovely, everything was so wonderful... except that once Xu Ce actually arrived, reality turned out to be a little different from what he'd imagined.
For instance, the powerful figures seeking his help to change their luck were a little too famous.
"...So," Xu Ce said with difficulty, "you want to ask for good fortune for your kingdom, is that right, Mr. Ying Zheng?"
"...All right, for good fortune for your kingdom, please turn right and go to the third row. Yes, right there. Do you see that Records of the Grand Historian, Mr. Ying Zheng?"
"...Mr. Ying Zheng, please stop asking who Liu Bang is. That isn't included in this luck-changing service."

He was a lucky koi, a bringer of good fortune, a wish-granting, all-powerful deity. His origins were impossible to trace. His whereabouts passed through the hidden side of history, yet were unmistakably tied to the most brilliant names of the past several thousand years. In unknown corners of the historical records, he once prolonged the fortune of the First Emperor, prayed for Emperor Wu of Han to live forever, and divined the heavens for Emperor Taizong. He also exchanged poems with Li and Du, encountered Su and Huang, and poured a cup of wine for the Lady Yi'an. He was a phantom of time, yet possessed unfathomable powers, effortlessly shifting the course of history.
He was...
Xu Ce: "Who I am doesn't matter, but could Your Majesty settle the remaining five hundred taels of gold for the gunpowder-making techniques I gave you earlier?"
This story is also known as The Adorable, Mischievous Lucky Koi Gets Rich Overnight. Though he's neither a proper lucky koi nor properly rich.
The setting is fictional. Any resemblance is purely coincidental.
Theme: Heaven helps those who help themselves.
There is a big difference between the level and the live broadcast. The start is chaotic, the main plot is chaotic, and the story is hit here and there. The most impressive thing so far is the golden hairpin given by Wu Zetian. Then this rare treasure was sold for millions by the protagonist who had no money.
That is to say, as the protagonist, you should be conscious of ordering food, begging for help when you should, and don't have persecution delusions.
The system is also a big failure. There can be stupid pit systems, but at least one of the system and the host must be able to resist the big banner. It would be boring to be played with together. If you insist on insisting on this unified character design, I suggest the author change the perspective and focus on it. The ancient heroes focus on describing how they came to the most beneficial conclusion in the shortest time after meeting the immortal, how they made a series of inferences from the details of the immortal, and how the knowledge given by the immortal contributed to their own success.
I just came here for the live broadcast, and I don't think it's as good as the one next door. The protagonist is an ordinary person, and it is too easy to be manipulated by the ancients. It is better to cooperate with the country quickly, otherwise those treasures will be wasted no matter what price they are sold for. For example, that golden hairpin took so much effort and cost only two to three million. I didn't expect it. After all, it was made with so much hard work. Miao Miao also has a bad attitude towards the protagonist. She has a sense of déjà vu and threatens her as soon as she opens her mouth. Although she does not say it clearly, it is understandable that she is anxious, but in fact, she remembers that the protagonist is easy to talk and bully, so she feels that she can handle it. Although there is nothing wrong with her behavior, I still don't like it. (Personal feeling, just a suggestion, no malice intended, please don't comment.)
You are such a good dog QAQ, you have the ability to open new pits, you have the ability to update, why do you poke my heart in every article of yours, but you just don't update it QAQ
Real wife, please consider connecting with GJ!
Otherwise, don't sell so many treasures as imitations.
They are the most shining ones and should be praised by the world
So heartbroken???
What can I say, if Lao Cao is bound to this sadomasochism system, he will probably be able to max out the missions in a short time.
Now I feel that all of them are human beings. For example, Emperor Zetian, Emperor Taizong of Tang Dynasty and others can do whatever they want to do to the best of their ability.
I don't like Miao Miao very much, she has a condescending arrogance. We all know that the protagonist can communicate with emperors, so why do we still look down on him? PS: If the protagonist can't play with it, consider giving it to GJ Daddy. It would be a pity to sell the treasure at such a low price.
Woc? I stumbled upon something that was unexpectedly in line with my preferences. Why doesn't every book have an ending? ! ?
How dare you read this author's articles? I looked at the author's articles and found that almost all of them were pitfalls. Some of them were even added to v and even stopped updating. I felt very afraid.
This article actually has a big potential, but the results are not high so far. I hope it can be completed. Great writing
