After working herself to death, workaholic Yu Zhentan transmigrates into a political intrigue novel as a cannon-fodder character.
After a political marriage, she will wreak havoc at court and frame loyal officials, only to be poisoned to death by her husband, the third prince, on the eve of his ascension to the throne.
Having worked herself to death in her previous life, Yu Zhentan finally comes to her senses and wants nothing more than to be a beautiful layabout. She tosses the cannon-fodder script aside.
She won't do something as troublesome as bringing ruin to the nation!
Time to lie flat!!
Xie Xingyin is upright and self-disciplined, excels in both literary and martial pursuits, and has a schedule that puts even the most disciplined lifestyle influencers to shame. The moment he opens his eyes, he's already plotting and scheming, leading the charge in working himself to death.
For the sake of his grand ambitions, he grits his teeth and accepts this marriage that all the other princes are eager to avoid.
Rumor has it that his princess is weak and easy to bully, timid as a rabbit, but in truth she is up to no good and highly suspicious.
On their wedding night, Xie Xingyin intends to sound her out, but the beauty beneath the lamplight dazzles him.
Her bridal gown is a rich crimson, and her features are stunning, as luminous as a celestial being. She beckons him with a finger and says flirtatiously, "Come on, let me see your abs."
Xie Xingyin: ...?
After they marry, Xie Xingyin continues working himself to the bone over political schemes and remains on his guard. But he discovers that:
Yu Zhentan needs at least five shichen of sleep every day, spends her time idling and indulging herself, writes romance stories and brews fine wine, is obsessed with handsome men's dances, and has a crowd of talented young men following her around.
When someone picks a fight, Yu Zhentan complains that the ground is too hard, collapses into his arms, and pretends to faint so she can extort an apology from her opponent. Afterwards, she hands him her "grudge notebook" and asks him to help her get revenge.
Over time, Xie Xingyin finally accepts that Yu Zhentan is pampered, willful, and absent-minded.
But when his advisers and strategists burn the midnight oil for five nights without getting anywhere, Yu Zhentan takes one casual look and spots the problem.
She is also skilled at water conservancy, military strategy, and creating new calendars. She governs his territory so well that it almost ends up bearing the Yu family name.
Faced with a fanatical following and impressive achievements, Yu Zhentan remains a lazy fish, lying flat without even bothering to turn over.
This is nothing. I worked myself to death back in the day.
Don't bother me with little things like this in the future.
After a night of contemplation, Xie Xingyin searches high and low for plays, fine wine, and novel curiosities, then silently opens his robe.
A genius of her caliber is a pillar of the nation. He absolutely cannot make an enemy of her.
He will offer himself as bait and the empire as her bride-price, all to win the heart of the woman he loves.
A short scene:
Yu Zhentan is gravely ill and knows she doesn't have long to live, so she leaves a farewell letter.
There is just one small problem: she doesn't die, and instead grows healthier by the day.
Yu Zhentan watches Xie Xingyin return from a long journey, his expression dark and eyes bloodshot as he keeps watch by her bed for three days straight... and quietly pulls the covers higher.
He's this angry. Is he going to * her until she can't get out of bed?
Please add my upcoming story, Is the Passing Extra Actually an Evil God?!
In infinite-flow novels, there is always a kind of character with no name, referred to only by a characteristic or occupation. They either do something stupid at the start or are killed off as cannon fodder to create a terrifying atmosphere.
Lu Jiangming is one of them, wearing a cheap suit that fits him poorly and looking like a dead-eyed corporate drone.
After an unfortunate fall into a haunted dungeon, he accepts his fate in one second.
As everyone else panics and tries to survive, he slowly lies flat with a peaceful expression. "Is it time to die? Bring it on."
Lu Jiangming used to be an infinite-flow player.
He ranked first on the power leaderboard and became a guild leader. While frantically grinding dungeons and maxing out the bosses' hatred of him, he also had to deal with the guild's backstabbing and infighting, personally handling every big and small matter. After surviving countless betrayals and near-death experiences, he finally reached the battle that was his destiny, exhausted himself, and died.
It seemed like he won in the end, but that didn't matter. After working himself to death only to end up with nothing, Lu Jiangming finally understood.
What's the point of working yourself to the bone? Everyone dies sooner or later. Lie flat and accept fate's best arrangements.
He never expected to get a second chance. In his new life, Lu Jiangming behaves himself and tries to live like an ordinary person, but then the infinite world arrives.
"..." Omitted: ten thousand words of swearing.
Since he doesn't die at the beginning, Lu Jiangming can only keep lying low. If he can slack off, he won't use his brain; if he can lie flat, he won't make an effort. He clears dungeons with all sorts of bizarre tactics, and with him around, the dungeon survival rate is 100%.
The Management Bureau is seriously short-staffed. Although Lu Jiangming has no notable qualities aside from his pretty face, luck is part of one's strength, so after careful consideration, they invite him to join.
For the sake of a stable government job, Lu Jiangming accepts.
At the Management Bureau, he hears the maddening whispers of an evil god that can drive people insane: What should I eat tonight?
In the Book of Origins, he sees familiar, ugly handwriting: Why does everyone keep saying they want to be my dog, then kneel down and beg me to slap them? Honestly...
As for that high-rank sealed object contaminated by an evil god, it's the crumpled paper he uses to wipe his mouth.
Lu Jiangming: ...I'm the evil god?!
Even though he has tried his best to keep a low profile and act like an ordinary person, people keep forcing things into his hands. After he reaches the top of the power leaderboard, someone envies his undeserved fame and tricks him into entering the abyss.
The abyss is filled with the aura of evil gods. It is terrifying, and no one ever returns. But Lu Jiangming sees familiar furnishings and, in the very center, a throne that belongs to him.
His once-adorable little underling crawls over and bites his ear, looking aggrieved. "Big brother, why did you take so long to come back? I've been waiting for you."
Lu Jiangming falls silent for a few seconds. "It's a long story. Don't put your tentacles in weird places... Wait, how many tentacles do you have?!"
When everyone learns that Lu Jiangming is an evil god, they're shocked, yet have a strange feeling of "I knew it," and accept reality in a second.
#I'm the evil god's dog. The dungeon bosses should just surrender#
Theme: Face life with a sunny attitude, and make the most of every day
I feel that the setting of this book is quite good. It is very rare to read an alternate history. Is it because it is not in the comfort zone? [Loading][Hold your thighs]
Please don't lock it, I still want to read it, you can just leave it and write slowly, but don't lock it [Hold your thighs]
I hope it's not an operation where I won't get a refund if I renew a card in a month or two, otherwise I'll have to post a short essay [Lemon]
Are you really not writing anymore? Can you come back and make up for it? I want to read it [crying]
It's funny, the next door post updates every day and this article has not published a single word for a month or two. There is no excuse and no reason [PIGEON][PIGEON][PIGEON][PIGEON]
Are you sick? [Cracked] Spending money to read the article and not updating it, refunding the money if it doesn't come out, not giving explanations, all platforms are in trouble, this is the first time I've encountered this, I'm really convinced
Let's just solve V. I don't feel like I really want to read this article anymore.
I haven't even finished this article yet, so I just opened a new one.
If you can't continue writing, just solve the V. I said [split] [cover your face and laugh and cry]
I don't understand why this one is not updated when I start a new article.
I started another one before I finished this one. I feel like there is no hope for this one. Last time I saw an author like this, he had already solved the V and stopped updating it. If you can't continue writing, just solve the V. Don't waste each other's time.
Let's just solve v. I said, after one month, I took another month off and said it would be updated on 6.1, But it turned out that it was almost 6.10 Before I updated 1 chapter. It was over and now it's gone. 6 Months has almost passed.
