The First Laid-Back Female Chancellor of Bianjing

Qian Zhaohuai, a slacker in a civil service exam prep class, transmigrates into the first female official of a newly founded dynasty and is bound to a Retirement System.

If she wrecks the government and gets exiled by the emperor, she can return to the modern world with the wealth of ten lifetimes.

She begins making a show of being a lazy shirker at court, with every move aimed at getting herself exiled for her crimes.

First, every shopkeeper and citizen in the entire city must work year-round without a day off. The elderly, the weak, women, and children must all pitch in. Anyone who can breathe has to work. Mobilize every bit of labor that can be mobilized.

Surely that will spark public outrage?

Second, every official must attend court punctually at five in the morning, and at the end of each month they must undergo a performance review. Anyone who fails gets demoted and punished!

Surely that will earn her the officials' resentment?

Third, while leading troops into battle, she sets up a lavish banquet right in front of the enemy camp, serving everything from modern hot pot and milk tea to barbecue. No brandishing weapons, and not a drop of blood spilled.

Surely that will get her charged with treason?

But, to her utter surprise

The people of Bianjing live in peace and prosperity, official corruption is at an all-time low, and the enemy army sends a petition of surrender!

Her persona as a treacherous official destined for exile has somehow turned her into a goddess sent from heaven.

Qian Zhaohuai is utterly despairing. “Tell me what I did wrong and I'll fix it. Please don't promote me. Just exile me!”
