I Am A Corrupt Official, Yet They Say I Am A Loyal Minister!

Description

Links are NOT allowed. Format your description nicely so people can easily read them. Please use proper spacing and paragraphs.

In the dangerous world of high martial arts, Lin Beifan traversed and found himself bound to a corrupt official system.

It seemed that the only way to become stronger was through corruption – a ridiculous notion, but one that he had to follow nonetheless. He found himself embezzling, accepting bribes, and using his power for personal gain, becoming a despised and hated corrupt official.

Yet, secretly, he distributed his ill-gotten gains to the people, leaving nothing for himself. He carried the weight of his bad reputation while still trying to make the world a better place.

The empress, who knew the truth, shed tears and said, “My dear, I’m sorry for the injustice done to you. Come to my palace tonight.”

The intelligent and beautiful women who knew the truth declared, “No matter how the world sees you, we are willing to stand by your side, through thick and thin!”

The martial women of the Jianghu who knew the truth vowed, “If they want to take down Lin, they’ll have to get through us first!”

Others were left in shock, “He’s clearly a corrupt official, why are you all protecting him?”

It's your run of the mill novel to turn your brain off. Very generic, extremely generic. It sort of feels like its the author's first novel with the general plot, not saying that it is bad, everyone starts somewhere, but feels beginner-ish. The system would be interesting if it actually had consequences instead of all the female leads defending him like he's the president. The novel is severely lacking in tension in that regard. If you have time to burn and waiting for the novels in your reading lists to... more>> update, its a passable read. <<less

Overall a fun story, though as is often the case with CN novels, female leads are often handled very poorly.

But if only focusing on the MC and the Empress then its quite fun often. MC is compelled to be corrupt and the lady finds out. But, before she can kill him he actually donated the gold he stole to the people while hiding his identity.

But again, the Empress has secret forces and she found out. And decided she likes having at least a single official trying to benefit the people.... more>> Though she later makes him give her the gold while hiding the fact that it is her. And thus he stays safe (with her hidden help) and he keeps harrasing the other corrupt officials for gold and treasures at every turn while constantly expanding his scope while the Empress gets progressively richer and happier at every turn.

Not the best but quite fun if you only mind the overall plot. <<less

Good novel, excellent translation work. The novel follows Lin Beifen who gets a cheat that the more money he earns through corruption the stronger he becomes. So he decides to be a Chinese robin hood. One thing that I really liked about this novel is that unlike most Chinese novels, the main character actually does care about people and the various characters. A lot of the novel is about him making life better for the common people. The novel is also mainly about him using his brain (and a... more>> lot of plot armor) to make things go his way. There are very few scenes where he fights himself, rather he is usually in command of troops. There are few romance scenes, which are pretty average and short.

The main positive of this novel has been the translator. A good translation work with more than consistent updates (getting 3 chapters (well sized ones at that) a day was very common) is rare and commendable. Thanks for all your hard work. <<less
