The Daily Life of a Depressed Salted Fish

Jiang Wu is a wandering soul who has roamed the earth for a thousand years. One day, he finds himself in a body, reincarnated as a historically infamous and deposed emperor who was beheaded after a coup.

Jiang Wu: Hmm…

Being an emperor, a position he finds nightmarish, Jiang Wu, with his depressed outlook on life, just wants to hand over the throne and quickly return to his ghostly state.

To speed up the rebellion of the Yin family, he summons the Yin family’s eldest son to the palace to serve him. Immediately, the court is filled with outrage, and the Yin family almost storms the palace to skin him alive.

That night, Jiang Wu lazily demands humiliating tasks from the fiercely glaring Yin Wuzhi: “Hold me, feed me, and lull me to sleep.”

Finished, he sends Yin Wuzhi off to review documents.

The next day, the humiliation continues: “Hold me, push me on a swing, lift me up high.”

Finished, he sends Yin Wuzhi off to review documents.

On the third day, the demands escalate: “Hold me, kiss me, and squat down to listen to what I have to say.”

Yin Wuzhi, staring at the lazy, slumped figure on the couch: …..

This is too much!!!

If this Laozi doesn’t kill you, I won’t be called Yin Wuzhi!!!

Then, a year passes, two years pass, and despite Jiang Wu’s daily humiliations and forcing Yin Wuzhi to review documents, the throne becomes more secure, the people grow richer, and the empire prospers year by year.

Gloomy Critic: …

According to my fate, I should have met my end by now, so why is everything still fine?

Yin Wuzhi… Yin Wuzhi is going mad.
