I Told Ghost Stories in the Court, but the Empress Believed Me

Shen Langchen traveled through time and became a ninth-grade official in the Night Watch Department of the Darui Dynasty who had no power to restrain a chicken. In this world, demons are rampant, lies are told endlessly, hauntings occur frequently, and human hearts are more poisonous than ghosts. Fortunately, he was a doctor of folklore in his previous life. He doesn't know much about anything else, but he has a lot of ghost stories! So - can't solve the cold case? He wrote a piece called "The Painted Skin Bride", and the real murderer was drowned by the people's spit. Can't bring down the powerful? He published "Blood-coated Shangshu" overnight, and the whole family of corrupt officials died socially. The Taoist Celestial Master is pretending to be a ghost? His live serialization of "Fox Mei Examination Room" set off a storm of public opinion across the country! Others practice meditation, but I level up by telling ghost stories! On the surface, he is a squishy mage with shaky spells and relies solely on Hua Wenwen Qi to protect his body, but secretly he is a melee thug with gluttonous blood, who can swallow demonic energy and punch to the flesh! It was all thanks to the illusion of the painted-skinned witch Liu Yueru to cover up his sandbag-sized fists. He originally wanted to just write a book and upgrade, but his boss, the empress Xiao Qihuang, set her sights on him. The empress believed in ghosts and gods, was fond of offering sacrifices to heaven, and was ruthless. However, she always put down a cup of warm tea in front of his case: "Shen Aiqing, the ghost stories you tell are more true than my memorials." Until that day, the earth's veins cracked, the gate of hell opened, and the national master Xie Wujiu wanted to refine all the people into gods! The empress took off her dragon robe, her body and soul burned, and she wanted to use her body to repair the door: "I believe in ghosts and gods, and I believe in you even more." Shen Langchen finally tore up the talisman, abandoned the illusion, and his energy and blood surged into the sky: "Your Majesty, you believe wrong - I am not psychic, I only know physical salvation!"
