I Awaken the Ultimate Jinx! The Whole Capital Begs Me to Stay Quiet

Lu Yaoyao transmigrates into the sickly legitimate daughter of the Vice Minister of Revenue in the Great Yu Dynasty. She also has a special talent: reverse curses! Want something to happen? Dream on! Whatever she wants won’t happen, and things go the opposite way! Want her scumbag father to enjoy a smooth career? The very next day, he’s impeached by the Censorate. Want her wicked stepmother to stay young forever? Her stepmother walks out the door and lands face-first in the moat. Lu Yaoyao: “I choose to be an emotionless snark machine!” From then on, the capital gains an “unusual bringer of bad luck.” She “wishes” a crooked rice merchant “boundless prosperity,” and his granary is robbed overnight. She “prays” that corrupt officials “live a hundred years,” and one of them gets food poisoning and nearly dies. The people tremble: “Miss Lu, please, whatever you do, don’t ‘bless’ us!” Meanwhile, Yan Jinghong, commander of the Jingling Guards, has to clean up the messes she makes and endure her “reverse blessings” every day. His face turns dark as a pot. Yan Jinghong, stone-faced: “Lu Yaoyao, yesterday you ‘praised’ me as wise, and today I arrested the neighbor’s three-year-old as a spy.” Lu Yaoyao, innocent: “Oh, but children can be destructive too!” Yan Jinghong, through gritted teeth: “Then why, after you ‘prayed’ for everything to go smoothly for me, did grass sprout on my official hat?” Lu Yaoyao, holding back a laugh: “Maybe… it wanted to answer spring’s call?” Yan Jinghong, taking a deep breath: “I think you’re tired of living!” Lu Yaoyao, under her breath: “I wish you a long li… Ow!” She shrinks instantly under his glare. Yan Jinghong discovers that he’s gradually getting used to all this chaos, and even… kind of enjoying it?
