【Full Mind Reading + Silly + Watching Drama + Slacking Off】

Having finally become a noble lady in ancient times, Lin Mo decided to cherish this wonderful life! After living a lazy life for over a decade after crossing over, Lin Mo originally planned to continue like this, but her father, fearing she might starve, directly gave her an official position.

“Ahhh! I don’t want to go to work! Why do I have to go to work!” Lin Mo cried and rolled on the ground.

But after starting work, life didn’t seem so difficult, and she even got a “melon-eating” system. The whole court was full of drama!

From then on, Lin Mo and the system would attend court every day to watch the drama. However, the system had a flaw: everyone could hear their thoughts!

So, the court officials ended up hearing a lot of random and messy things, which were quite intriguing.

【Shocking! The emperor’s underwear has been mended three times, and the reason is poverty!】

Emperor:……

That evening, the three princes sent a large pile of underwear to their father.

【Big News! The Protector-General has an inappropriate relationship with Prince Qi!】

Protector-General:……

Soon after, both the Protector-General’s residence and Prince Qi’s residence were raided.

【Oh my goodness! The Grand Preceptor wet the bed last night! And he even hid the bedding!】

Grand Preceptor:……

That same evening, the emperor sent a court physician to follow the Grand Preceptor back, as bedwetting is a condition that needs treatment!

With Lin Mo and the system, the daily court sessions became a melon-eating party.

Lin Mo and the system led the court officials through a field of drama. Thanks to their help (eating melons), corrupt officials were caught and the treasury was filled.

Most importantly, the emperor himself now had money to buy new underwear!

The translation quality is great, but the novel is pretty much a less palatable version of Echoes of My Heart Throughout The Court.

MC is wholly unlikeable, since she doesn't even pretend to try and act normal or learn common sense of the era she's in. She's like one of those cliché C-Drama female leads who are essentially protected from any consequences because they're the main character. Eugh.

... more>>
Spoiler

All she does is cause her family trouble and acts like a spoiled child. It's funny at first but gets repetetive AND gratingly annoying real quick whenever she comes up with some "genius plan" to be woken up before attending Court. Sure, she and Yu Xianmiao have the same goals of being Salted Fish, but YXM actually does his job and actually acts like a pleasant person to those he respects + grows to see everyone around him as people, rather than a caricature of someone who probably wrote down the characteristics of a womanchild, slapped the label of "Salted Fish" over it and decided she would have no character development in 40+ chapters and yet is racking up rank ascensions like a P2W Genshin Player.

[collapse]

Tl;Dr, there are so much better novels with the same execution and plot like this. And let's not get into the arc with blackface and h*mophobia here. Despite you know. China having a long history with same-s*x relationships. <<less

This is a hilarious story to read. As per the summary, FL is a salted fish whose number one joy in life is GOSSIP. She loves gossip, loves admiring beautiful woman, an air head and very very wild.

The whole novel is just about her shenanigans with the System as they go about finding gossip and wrecking havoc. The Emperor enjoys the gossip and actually released an edict forbidding everyone to tell FL that they can hear her thoughts. So everyone is eager to listen into the gossip lol.

The... more>> gossip that she uncovers is also not very bad as compared to the drama that happens in other novels.

There is no harem politics nor throne ascension drama. The Emperor and his harem are peaceful, Princes don't fight with one another. But the gossip that happens are usually about ridiculous funny things like the Second Prince being so sure of his bed skills but in actual fact his wife hates it and acts like she enjoys it.

The drama or gossip is never anything overly bad and the humor is often there. Some recurring jokes are about the Emperor being a miser, FL sitting on a pig and roaming the area in search of gossip...

Just some thoughts though: There are some racist undertones imo. Several chapters are about blackface humor, there's mentions of curly hair making the FL look like an indian monk... Here are some excerpts.. I don't think the author means it in a mean-spirited way but it still isn't that nice to read...

Spoiler

They are the two most conspicuous people on this street. These two shiny black heads have become the most eye-catching scenery on this street.

The System was almost laughing like crazy: [Why are you making things difficult for me? With your black face, who can tell who you look like? The species you most resemble right now is a chimpanzee.]

[collapse]

I also don't agree with one reviewer that FL's dad has anger issues. In the beginning he does seem like he blows up a lot but that's only because the FL is super ridiculous and he's trying to discipline her. He is actually the one that dotes on her the most and her bond with her father is actually quite nice.

Minister Lin worries about her constantly. This is one excerpt:

Minister Lin immediately turned into a roaring emperor: "How can I not panic! That's my daughter in there! She has lived happily since she was a child and has never encountered such a thing. She will definitely be scared!"

He pampers her, carries her whenever she wants to and runs after her to make sure she doesn't get in trouble (much). Honestly he is a saint for how much he puts up with hahaha. His daughter is a frightful terror.

The family relationship is great and they're all so protective of the FL that she grew up fearless and wild.

"The love of her parents gave her confidence, and the care of her brothers and sisters gave her strength, because no matter what happened, her family was behind her." FL knows it too.

Romance:

I actually thought the romance tag was added wrongly... In the end there are hints of romance between the side characters like her brother and sister. The doting husband trope is frequently present in this novel- Minister Lin absolutely loves his wife, the Crown Prince as well and several others. AND there is actually a MALE LEAD in this chaotic novel!!!! But the romance is super duper slow because both the FL and ML are clueless airheads.

BIG SPOILER:

Spoiler

The male lead is... THE SYSTEM. System gains a human form and is called Bai Xiao and he goes on adventures with FL to find gossip!!!! Her family and the whole country knows he marries into the Lin family. Omg I did not see this coming. By the way our FL is into f*mdom and also she was the one wearing groom wear while System wore the bridal clothes.

"On the wedding night, Lin Mo indulged her lust to the extreme, and Bai Xiao let her do whatever she wanted.

Lin Mo: [Hehehe, I was really awesome last night! Please call me a fierce girl! ]

Bai Xiao chuckled, his smile was a little silly."

[collapse]

Basically a funny as heck story but do note that there are some parts that were uncomfortable to me - the blackface chapters started around pg154 in the MTL. Lasted for about 20-30 pages. <<less

Bar none, the funniest melon-eating story I've ever read. It's completely silly, and I've not stopped laughing since I started reading this.

So the premise is that our protagonist is a reincarnated modern person who discovered she has reached the pinnacle of her dreams - to be utterly lazy and supported by her family for the rest of her life. Her favorite thing is to listen to gossip between the staff.

Naturally, her parents have a lot to say about that dream, so she's immediately given a slacker job in the royal... more>> court. All she has to do is stand there for several hours a day during the court session, but even she can't handle that - as she explains, ever since she reincarnated to ancient, more simpler times, her originally sharp and wary mind has errrr also become simpler. Poor girl has the habit of falling asleep because court was so boring.

Enter the system, who binds with her on her first day of the job. And why does it bind with her? Because she's the most gossipy person in the world lol. After that is a pretty wild, roller-coaster ride as it becomes apparent literally everyone in the country, random citizens and nobles alike, can hear her and the system's conversation, but because the system and our FMC are so into eating the melons, they don't notice this fact no matter how ludicrous the situation is.

Our FMC is a pretty goofy girl who is determined to live like a salted fish and just do whatever she wanted since she joined the court (as long as she won't get beheaded by the emperor, who's so entertained by the gossip he'd rather keep her around). The system is also a newborn system, so it doesn't have a lot of common sense as well. The two of them together are like a rampaging fire hazard and everyone is both entertained and dismayed.

The gossip that they uncover is very unique. A lot of the time the gossip is pretty light-hearted stuff like:

Spoiler

a flower thief was running away from the soldiers, and happened to fall in love with the most perfect bare bu*t he's ever seen. And it's only the bu*t he saw, so he didn't really know that the owner of said bu*t was a general who happened to be taking a shower with the windows open...

[collapse]

And combine that with comedic situations like

Spoiler

the system gaining the ability to tame animals for a mount, but our protagonist misaimed at the last moment, leading to this poetic scene:

"Minister Lin and his wife were admiring the moon in the pavilion when they suddenly saw a person riding a big white pig running past them."

[collapse]

It's a fun and brainless read, so it you want humor in spades, this is the work to read. <<less

The novel is quite fun actually, but I just feel like I don't want to continue reading this novel anymore, maybe because MC personality and action (?) Well there's nothing wrong with that, but it just... My personality affect the novel I wanted to read so, lin Mo personality and action is so contrast with me, every time she take action, I just want to say can't she please restrain a little, or calm down a little, and even though she didn't want to become an official.. Can't she please... more>> do her work a little just a little bit, even she want to sleep don't make so obvious on the outside, just look at brother yu next door. Okay I'll be blunt, I can't stand her unrestrained personality and action at all.

Besides that the novel is fun, just try it. <<less

Very humerous and fun novel, pretty much every chapter has made me laugh so far. Unlike other systems, the gossip system isn't overbearing or made completely s*upid to serve as exposition.

Spoiler

If there is one problem with this novel, it's Minister Lin (the MCs Father). From what I've read so far he is unreasonable 90% of the time. His anger issues aren't funny and serve no purpose.

[collapse]

A little excerpt: (Dramatized)

Spoiler

Minister Lin: I'm kicking you out of the house for no particular reason today! (I'm unreasonable and a s*upid douchebag anyway!) Doesn't seem to care where she will sleep or bothers to think about her wellbeing at all. She has no money on her and since she's barred from the house she can't get more or even change her clothes, so she has to bum off someone else, I mean what does he expect she's going to do? Then he has the NERVE to beat her for drinking wine at an Officials house. It's pretty easy to predict she would cause some problems while drinking since she's done it before! His favorite sentence? "She's my flesh and blood after all." This might remind you of something often said by the s*um of the earth mothers in dogblood novels, "She's the flesh that fell from my body so I can treat her like tr*sh haha." He's infuriating, irredeemable garbage.

[collapse]

If I ever transmigrated I hope it would be this story so I could assassinate Minister Lin. <<less
